Pissant’s unhinged rant of the day.
These extremists are what Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson rightly calls the “Taliban wing” of the GOP.
Ah yes, old Babbling Brooksie is a helluva example.
While the extremists attempt to portray themselves as principled conservatives fighting against what they claim to be Republicans-in-name-only (aka RINOs), the truth is they are the pretenders.
That isn’t to say everyone in the tea party is a conservative pretender.
Far from it, actually.
Unfortunately, the mothers, fathers, grandfathers and grandmothers who filled parks and courthouse lawns four years ago were preyed upon by all sorts of hucksters and grifters, who declared themselves to be the tea party leaders.
They then aligned with extremists, themselves the descendants of the John Birch Society who were rightfully expelled from the conservative movement by Ronald Reagan, William F. Buckley Jr. and Michigan’s own Russell Kirk when these three served as the political and intellectual leaders of conservatism.
That’s why political leaders and activists who were the tea party long before the tea party existed — Macomb County’s Leon Drolet comes to mind — [snip]
Bingo! Where it always leads to if one allows a platform to a moronic Millennial.
Ps. Mush-mouth Buckley’s son turned out to be a pile of dung, too.
