A WARNING TO THE TEA PARTY NATION
By Chuck Baldwin
February 12, 2010
NewsWithViews.com
As far as grassroots activism goes, the surge in Tea Parties across America is
one of the more encouraging developments to recently take place. It reminds me
of the "Conservative Revolution" of 1994, when the GOP reclaimed both
the US Senate and House of Representatives. At that time, it had been over 40
years since the Republican Party controlled both the US House and Senate. And,
between the two, the House victories were the most significant.
Spurred mostly by the election of Bill Clinton in 1992, a host of young,
energetic freshman Republicans marched into Washington, D.C., determined to
return a burgeoning and out-of-control federal leviathan to the constitutional
precepts of limited government. I'm talking about then-freshman House members
such as Helen Chenoweth, Steve Largent, Bob Barr, Joe Scarborough, Sonny Bono,
John Shadegg, J.C. Watts, etc. These young conservatives went to Washington,
D.C., determined to reduce the growth and size of the federal government.
The vehicle used to transport these young conservatives from grassroots activism
to US House and Senate seats was the highly touted "Contract with
America" (CWA), which was orchestrated by House Speaker-to-be, Newt
Gingrich. The CWA included a promise to the American people that if they would
give the GOP a majority in Congress, they would eliminate up to 5 federal
departments--such as the Departments of Energy and Education--and many federal
agencies.
Obviously, not only did the GOP-controlled Congress not eliminate a single
federal department or agency--or even shrink the size of the federal government
at all--it expanded the size and scope of the federal government at every level.
And there is one reason for it: Big Government neocons posing as champions of
conservatism co-opted and destroyed the Conservative Revolution of 1994.
If one wants to put names to these treasonous wretches (and I do), I'm talking
about charlatans such as Newt Gingrich and Trent Lott. Anyone who thinks that
Newt Gingrich is a real conservative or that he will do anything to reduce the
size and scope of the federal government needs to speak with any of those
Republican members of the freshman class of 1994. (Sadly, too, some of the
members of that great freshman class went on to become Big Government toadies
themselves. Such is the power of that Putrid Province by the Potomac.)
The Tea Parties of 2010 remind me very much of the Conservative Revolution of
1994. And if the Tea Party Nation is not very careful, they will succumb to the
same fate. The signs of a silent takeover of the movement are already
appearing.
First of all, the Tea Parties were actually born during the Presidential
campaign of Congressman Ron Paul of Texas in 2007 and 2008. For all intents and
purposes, the Tea Parties and the Ron Paul Revolution were one and the same.
These were (mostly) young people, who were sick and tired of the same old
establishment Republican Party. They were tired of establishment Republicans
selling out the principles of limited government; they were tired of the US
Constitution being ignored and trampled by both Republicans and Democrats; they
were tired of an incessant interventionist US foreign policy that keeps sending
US forces overseas to advance a burgeoning New World Order (NWO); they were
tired of perpetual war; they were tired of the bank bailouts; they were tired of
the Federal Reserve; etc.
I know this because I met--and spoke before--the Tea Party Nation in State after
State as I campaigned for Dr. Paul during the Republican primaries back in 2008.
And I met them again all over America, as I was running as an Independent
candidate for President--with Ron Paul's endorsement, no less. I was with them
in scores of meetings (big and small) from Washington, D.C., to Spokane,
Washington, and all points in between.
But now many of the Tea Parties are distancing themselves from Dr. Paul and
embracing establishment players such as Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck. Even Newt
Gingrich is being courted. Watch out, Tea Party Nation: you're in danger of
losing your soul! Newt Gingrich is not one of you. He is not your friend. He is
an imposter. He will destroy you just like he almost single-handedly destroyed
the Conservative Revolution of 1994.
Plus, be careful about Sarah Palin and other establishment Republicans. Palin is
currently playing both sides. She is promoting Big Government neocons such as
John McCain on the one hand, and sincere conservative-libertarians such as Rand
Paul on the other hand. But if one wants a real barometer of Palin's true
colors, look no further than her endorsement of Rick Perry in Texas.
Perry is the quintessential establishment Republican. Perry has been in office
for some 9 years, and what has he done to thwart the NWO in Texas? Nothing!
Perry is even a Bilderberg Group attendee. What has he done for State
sovereignty in Texas? Nothing! In fact, he supports the North American Union and
the NAFTA superhighway. What has he done to resist Obama's universal health care
proposals? Nothing! What has he done to protect the citizens of Texas against an
emerging Police State? Nothing! What has he done to fight illegal immigration?
Nothing!
As a result of both Rick Perry's establishment business-as-usual politics in
Texas and the proliferating grassroots Tea Party movement, counterattacking
establishment politics, a Tea Partier herself has entered the race for Texas
governor. Her name is Debra Medina. As the Tea Party Nation in Texas already
knows, Medina is one of you.
Medina is committed to preserving Texas' independence and sovereignty. She is
opposed to the Patriot Act. She will secure the Texas border. She will give
Texas Vermont-style open carry freedoms for gun owners. She wants to get rid of
unconstitutional property taxes in Texas. She will stop the NAFTA superhighway.
Medina is the real deal.
So, what did Sarah Palin do? She went to Texas and endorsed Rick Perry! I'm
sorry, ladies and gentlemen, playing political games in order to rake in
hundreds of thousands of dollars on the speaking and book-signing circuits is
not what the Tea Parties are all about.
Tea Parties are supposed to be about putting principle over politics, supporting
and defending the US Constitution, supporting limited government and personal
liberty, getting rid of the Federal Reserve, abolishing the IRS, ending
preemptive and pervasive wars, and putting truth and integrity back into
government.
Don't get me wrong; there are things about Sarah Palin that I like. I especially
appreciate her pro-life and pro-Second Amendment stands. I also appreciate her
signing the Alaska State sovereignty resolution while she was governor. By all
indications, she did a good job as Alaska's chief executive. At the national
level, however, she favors the Patriot Act--and even wants to expand it. She
supported the banker bailouts. And when it comes to foreign policy issues, Palin
is just another neocon. Plus, as with most Republicans at the national level, I
think she is clueless about the NWO. And please remember, it was Mr. New World
Order himself, Henry Kissinger, who vetted Palin on behalf of McCain.
The Tea Party Nation should expect better!
The Nation also needs to be careful about Glenn Beck. He says many of the right
things. He is likeable and charismatic; but he's also dead wrong on a number of
issues--issues that are critical to the Tea Party Nation. He's dead wrong when
he attempts to disparage and impugn Congressman Ron Paul, saying Dr. Paul is a
"crazy, kooky guy." He's dead wrong in supporting the banker bailouts.
He's dead wrong when he supports raising taxes (which he has done on several
occasions). He was dead wrong when he supported the Patriot Act. He is dead
wrong when he viciously attacks the 9/11 victims' families who demand further
information about what happened to their loved ones on that fateful day. And he
is dead wrong when he mocks people such as Alan Keyes and Joe Farah for
demanding that Barack Obama release his birth certificate--if he indeed has
one.
And now I hear that there are some self-professed members of the Tea Party
Nation who are actually running for Congressman Paul's US House seat in Texas.
If this is not a sign that establishment Republicans are hijacking the Tea Party
movement, I don't know what is. Remember, the Tea Party movement began as a
support base for the Ron Paul Revolution back in 2007.
I strongly encourage the Tea Party faithful to read Jane Hamsher's recent column
on this subject.
I say again, be careful, Tea Party Nation. You are being infiltrated. You are
being compromised. You are being neutered. Stick to your principles. Stick with
the Constitution. Keep opposing unconstitutional, preemptive wars. Keep calling
for the abolition of the Federal Reserve. Keep fighting for less taxes, reduced
federal spending, and states' rights. Keep opposing the Patriot Act and the New
World Order. Don't abandon Ron Paul. Be wary of people such as Sarah Palin and
Glenn Beck. You don't need "big name" celebrities to give you
credibility. As Samson's strength depended on keeping his hair uncut, your
strength lies in keeping your principles intact. And unless you want to wind up
like the Republican freshmen in 1994, avoid Newt Gingrich like the plague!

Bullshit! It's not a religious thing at all. That was a Pastor that wrote that
article and the only religious thing you seen anywhere in it was the Samson
thing at the end and even non-religious people know about that.... keep trying
to push it away and blow it off, the real Tea Party will not go away.
Keep licking the Tea O con Parties ass, you know damn well they are just putting
on a front to get back some of the ground that Bush screwed and you guys will
just hand them the keys and let them fuck the country all over again because
it's what you were brought up to kiss on, their asses. Habitual mutts.
