What is a political tea party?

What do you think of this song about the tea party?

  • Tea party on the capitol lawn, asking you which side you're on Drawing battle lines in this country We're a rich nation full of boarded homes, crowded prisons, abandoned schools Poor folks with hard goals, rich folks with poor souls, Undereducated and overgrown, uninsured and over-loaned Clinging hard to what we own, trying to win the rat race So you hate taxes on the working poor? Unless they're earmarked for the war? Or an electric fence on the border? But not for nurses and doctors? Priorities flipped, that's the way it looks to me, and I work hard for my money But I don't believe in an economy that sets people up to fall Tea party on the capitol lawn and Sarah Palin's singing along Laughing all the way to the Pentagon Tea party on the capitol lawn, asking you which side you're on Drawing battle lines in this country There's something in our world-view, something bout the lens we look through That keeps us from building something new that works out better for more of us It's in the crack where the levees broke, it's in the cash Goldman Sachs stole It's in the fields of Tomatoes where the legacy of slavery roams It's a hatred born of jealous fear, a hatred born and bred right here Xenophobic and insecure with a deadly outcome It's a racism that grows and thrives as religion's used to justify An endless list of human rights denied in the name of "Liberty" Tea party on the capitol lawn and Christian terrorists are singing along Getting ready for the race war Tea party on the capitol lawn, asking you which side you're on Drawing battle lines in this country You're saying "Immigrants should go back home", I say know the ground that you're standing on Cuz Arizona was Mexico, and your grandparents were European And our national heroes like Thomas Paine were immigrants when they came And called themselves Americans, that's how it's always been "They're taking our jobs", that's what you're told, and so that's the story-line you hold But the people putting folks out in the cold didn't come here on foot No, Maria and Juan didn't steal your jobs, they were outsourced by Bill and Ron As South America's wealth was robbed by U.S. corporate policies And when they dumping the Tea in the Boston, it was an attack against a corporation So I don't see the connection between their story and yours And Crispus Attucks and the Boston dead weren't fighting for a white nation They were fighting against an occupation like the Iraq and Afghan wars Tea party on the capitol lawn, asking you which side you're on Battle lines are being drawn in this country

    Anything that insults teabaggers is fine with me. How about a song for the fleabaggers?

First let me admit my bias - Like the slave-freeing hero of this country, Abe Lincoln, I'm a white male republican. Sounds like occutard "gimme your sh*t" boilerplate. What about the point of view of freedom and liberty vs. the oppressive gov't of the far left? What about the idea that the closer you get to a particular utopian veiw, the less people that share that view and are positively served by it? The whole point of freedom is so that everyone can work on building their own idea of how they want their life to work out. This freedom goes all the way down to who you choose as your friends and who you associate with in everyday life. "Liberty" is not an excuse - it's what everyone should be striving for - because if you choose to serve a master today whom you like, tomorrow a new master my push the old one out and you just might hate the new one - but then, because you've made the state so big and powerful, you won't have any recourse. The best we can do is agree on freedom for everyone, then we recognize that our own freedoms end where the other person's begins. I have every right to dictate how things should be in my life, my house, my business - and the market decides if that's cool with them. You do the same for your domain of infuence with your private property. That should be enough for everyone - for my part, I don't need to rule the world nor do I require some assurance that everyone else agrees with me so I can sleep at night. I just need my little corner of the world to be manageable - whether you agree with it or not. You get the same assurance for your little corner. Why is that not enough?
