Coulter Hannity TeaParty Unkind
At the end of the day Ann Coulter towers head and shoulders above Frodo and Samwise, who likewise eclipse Greta. With one photo exception, and we suspect that it was doctored, nobody has ever seen Greta’s legs.
We at your AlabamaTeaParty.org megasite firmly believe that there is nothing wrong with Ann Coulter that a Big Mac wouldn’t cure. Remember the time Beck shook a piece of cake at her and she fled in horror to never be seen on that show again?
Have you noticed, as we have, that lately, Hannity has been tossing bomblets at he who must not be named (Glenn Beck), casting aspersions on his Republicanlyness? There is a definite balloon rising that Beck is trolling for a third TeaParty, and Hannity is the guy with the helium bottle.
More, we get the feeling that Ann Coulter, who is the quintessential conservative woman that we all love gets this eeeee-uuuu feeling every time the TeaParty is mentioned. It definitely feels like there is more than a little elitism there.
Near the end of the Friday show, Hannity took a call from a woman that went toe to toe with him over the Republican Party, saying that she was fed up with them, as we all are, and railed on for the establishment of the third party. She called Hannity a “Republican apologist,” to which he vehemently denied…and then went on to apologize for them, especially his hero Newt.
Actually, Newtie is a real Republican hero, and all good conservatives revere him, but it must be admitted that he’s had some real boneheads over the last few years. The most dangerous thing to the chances for victory of the Republican Party is to give the presidential nod to a retread, and Newt, though we love him dearly, is a retread. Does anybody remember Bob Dole’s disastrous run. The Republican party gave us the disease that keeps on giving for generations called Bill Clinton. Anyone remember that? If you do, you’ll remember how excited you were to pull that R lever in the voting booth. About the same or a little less than the last time around with McCain. We can’t have that again. No.
Assuming his most imperious demeanor, Hannity started to dress the lady down, but she held her ground. Where many women (and a few sissy men) would have burst into tears, she gave as good as she got. If anything, she managed to back Hannity down a notch, because, as the conversation went on, he couldn’t find a soft place to stab his oral dagger.
While we also disagree with the lady’s assessment that a third party is called for, nevertheless, we had a good time seeing Hannity get a dose of his own medicine.
More disturbing is the development of the idea that the TeaParty folks want a third party, and even more disturbing is that Beck is being cast as the leader of such a movement. It’s a democrat-like snow job. We’re tired of Hannity’s petulance, we’re not seminar bloggers, and we’re not changing the channel.
It is a solid fact that while TeaParty folks sympathize with the need of a third party, they in no way are calling for it, or supporting it. We know with precise data from the Perot debacle that the only answer is to infiltrate and hold the Republican Party to justice. We understand completely that to support third party candidates is the same as supporting democrat candidates. We also know that with the kind of muscle the TeaParty is developing, we can force out the namby pambies in the Republican Party, and insert our own good folks. (And in a few years toss them out when they forget who brung them to the party.)
So, Hannity and Coulter, quit your worrying. And Hannity, quit your sniping at Beck. In trying to make him out to be the fool, you only fool yourself. Do what you do the best, and we’ll be there every step of the way with you.
Your supporters, of which most of the TeaParty folks are, have enough respect for you and Beck. Put that jealousy thing in a box. You want to do the right thing? Make peace with Beck and the right kind of example for your adoring fans.

Industry standard reviews by real people who have used the products or services they are now crousing about.
Review by: DonWan
I was out riding around looking for work the other day when I noticed that my car needed an oil change. I seen this place called Barry’s Oil Change around and decided to go there because the sign outside said they’d do it for $14.95. That’s a real good price around here. Hell, it’s cheaper than I can do it myself and I got all the tools. So I stopped in.
Well, they took me right on in and told me to go sit down in the lounge while they changed the oil. They was real friendly like. So, I went on and set down. I dunno. I musta been in there for 45 minutes when they finally come and got me. There was a lot of cars lined up to get that oil special, so I wasn’t too mad about it.
So, the owner…Barry hisself walks up all teeth and smiling and hands me the bill. Well, I nearly swooned, and I ain’t no sissy. The bill come to percisely 8,014.95. What the blank, says I to Barry. What’s this???
Barry jes smiles an says to me that it’s a process. He says that the engine in that car wasn’t no good and they had to change it out before they could replace the oil. He says after I run it for awhile, I’ll be real glad they took care of it for me.
So I goes over there an looks. The dang engine hadn’t been changed out. It was still the same greasy nasty engine. (That’s the reason I wanted them to change the oil in the first place!)
What’s this I ax Barry?? Barry rars back laffing and says that the engine has been ordered and I ought to be glad of it. So I ax him when is it coming in. He says to me…get this….He says it’s only gonna take 4 years!!! That’s right. You heard it. Four YEARS!
So I ax him… So, I gotta wait four years for that new engine for this 2004 car and I still gotta pay for it???
Barry says yeah…but he says they got the EZ Pay plan, an for me not to worry.
I don’t think I’m going back to get my oil changed at that Barry’s Oil Change You Can Believe In place never again and I don’t recommend you do either.I think he told me lie.

Nancy Pelosi LOVES TeaParty
Interesting times… ABC News who just announced a bit of a reduction in staff…. From an arkle by By BRIAN STELTER and BILL CARTER…“ABC News is making no secret about what is behind the sweeping staff cuts it now faces: raw survival instinct.
“I just looked out at the next five years and was concerned that we could not sustain doing what we were doing,” said David Westin, the president of ABC News, as he explained the decision last week to jettison up to 400 staff members, a quarter of the news staff, in the coming months”
You and I know what was behind that. Rush has been predicting it for years. In the Wild News Kingdom, only the fittest survive. The newsbeest, instead of bulking up on tasty bits, daily opened their veins to bleed out a bit. All they had to do, as we well know, was to deliver to us, the audience, what we craved…namely news, and truth. However, the worser angels of their liberal nature was running things, and, well, we told you so! Nah-nanny-boo-boo. Dummies.
But before the staff gathered up their lunch buckets and headed for the door they produced a poignant interview with Nancy Pelosi, the leaderette of the House of Representatives and obtained some interesting material… Straight from something called The Note Washington’s Original and Most Influential Tipsheet on the ABC News website, while it’s still online…
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says she has much in common with the Tea Party. The speaker now says she shares views with movement she dismissed last summer as being “Astroturf” – her suggestion that the grassroots of the Tea Party were a creation of the Republican Party. In a “This Week” interview with ABC’s Elizabeth Vargas, Pelosi said, “We share some of the views of the Tea Partiers in terms of the role of special interest in Washington, D.C., as — it just has to stop. And that’s why I’ve fought the special interest, whether it’s on energy, whether it’s on health insurance, whether it’s on pharmaceuticals and the rest.”
The interesting but somewhat disjointed sounding part of the interview which took place over the weekend on “This Week” interview with ABC’s Elizabeth Vargas goes something like this… (The interesting parts are backlit in purple…)
VARGAS: Let’s talk a bit about the coming elections in November. You had recently– and the Tea Party movement, do you think it will be a force to be reckoned with? You had said last summer that it was a faux grassroots movement. You called it the Astroturf movement.
PELOSI: In some respects it is. Uh-huh.
VARGAS: Is the Tea Party movement a force?
PELOSI: No – No what I said at the time is, that they were — the Republican Party directs a lot of what the Tea Party does, but not everybody in the Tea Party takes direction from the Republican Party. And so there was a lot of, shall we say, Astroturf, as opposed to grassroots.
But, you know, we share some of the views of the Tea Partiers in terms of the role of special interest in Washington, D.C., as — it just has to stop. And that’s why I’ve fought the special interest, whether it’s on energy, whether it’s on health insurance, whether it’s on pharmaceuticals and the rest.
VARGAS: So, common ground with many people in the Tea Party movement.
PELOSI: Well, no, there are some. There are some because they, again, some of it is orchestrated from the Republican headquarters. Some of it is hijacking the good intentions of lots of people who share some of our concerns that we have about the role of special interests and many Tea Partiers, not that I speak for them, share the view, whether it’s — and Democrats, Republicans and Independents share the view that the recent Supreme Court decision, which greatly empowers the special interests, is something that they oppose.
____________________________________
So, ummn…on the one hand, Nancy Pelosi has a lot in common with the TeaParty guys…but on the other hand, she wishes they would go throw themselves from a cliff and die horribly because they have no right to exist in the same space and time as she…. Hmmmn! Most interesting…
Friends, in the aminal kingdom, the strongest, bravest, most killerly lion, alligator, wildebeest, tiger, monkey, scorpion, giraffe, donkey, piss ant…you name it, becomes the leader of the pack. It says what goes. It gets the best food!
Why, the common corn weevil commands its countless inferiors whilst sitting atop the choicest piece of corn in the corn crib of ruin. King rat snarls warning from its fleshy cave amongst the tasty bits of the body politic. Even the lowly wombat soars over the heads of its lessers in its own personal jet plane stocked with all the things the wombat likes to dine upon.
The common theme here, of course, is that all the aminals must suffer while the strongest not only survives, but prospers.
Therefore how strange it is that while the little aminals have NO choice in the matter, for none of them know to take steroids to bulk up so they themselves can become the top dog, it is only the human that has a choice in the matter.
So, the very first decision by the verminous progressive liberals among us was to put the craziest, nuttiest, strangest, most vicious, craftiest, most hateful and unloving leaders possible in control of ALL the tasty bits, knowing full well what was going to happen. And so it has.
We’re a nation of something more than 303,824,640 people, led by 535 lunatics, who are in turn led by Nancy Pelosi with her sidekick Harry Reid. Nancy has ALL the cheese, but lets Harry have a little if he’s real good. The rest get none, and LOVE it.
So, while the country suffers from historical and third world levels of unemployment and the economy is on track for a date with a buzz saw, our leaderette and her cronies writhe like a bucket of maggots awaiting their next meal of tasty bits carved from the living flesh of the nation. And the democrats put them there.
It’s a strange, strange political world we live in when the law of the jungle applies…by choice.
Healthcare
Frankly, your average TeaParty individual would rather muck out the back yard outhouse than have to hear one more elected official tell them that they want Health Care. What they want is a job…or, if they are working at a non-gubment job, enough money to hire someone who is out of work to come and muck out the family bathroom.
Much will be written and spoken about the Bipartisan Health Care Debacle televised on television today, February 25th.
In the run up to the event, an article dated February 25th published in the Washington Post on February 24th entitled “On bipartisan health care, a foundation for agreement“ was published. Ed note: The punctuation and capitalization is that of the Washington Post…not mine. Jeez The byline for the piece goes to Kathleen Sebelius and Nancy-Ann DeParle. Therefore, we wonder who actually wrote the article.
In their own imperious words they said, “Today, Democrats and Republicans have a chance to come together, share their best ideas and unite behind reforms that will put families and small-business owners back in control of their health care… Since this debate began, media coverage has focused almost entirely on areas of disagreement between the two parties. But as two people who have spent much of the past year discussing health reform with President Obama and other Democrats, Republicans and independents, including many of the Republicans attending today’s meeting, we share the view of Rep. Charles Boustany (R-La.), who said last September: “We agree on about 80 percent of the issues right now. It’s just a matter of hashing out those few areas where we disagree…. That’s why we think Republicans should find a lot to like in the proposal President Obama released on Monday. We know Republicans will support the measures to prevent health-care fraud, such as new background checks for Medicare suppliers and real-time reviews of claims, because they’re the ones who wrote them.
The news tidbit delivered to us by the authorettes Sebelius and DeParle was just too easy….. From the website of Rep. Charles Boustany (R-La.), a snip published on February 24th….a whole day before the Sebilius/DeParle piece, which was dated February 25th, but published on February 24th by the award winning Washington Post said this…..
Boustany to Attend President’s Health Care Summit to Provide Republican Solutions to Lowering Health Costs Feb 24 2010……
“As a doctor, I saw firsthand the difficulties patients face in our health care system, and I continue to work with my colleagues to address the most pressing problem, which is lowering health care costs for all Americans,” said Boustany. “I am hopeful the President will listen to the bipartisan solutions we advocate. Health care is too important to simply rush through a glossy, 2,000 plus page bill. We need to scrap the current bills and start with commonsense solutions to lower health care costs.”
Now…. Why exactly are we not surprised to see a smidge of obfuscation and child-like propaganda from dames Sebilius and DeParle, and who exactly did write the article with their byline?Yes, friend Boustany may have said what he said back in September…but he since changed his mind a little.
In other breaking news, top Obama supporter Valerie Jarret recently had this to say about her favorite boss…. “President Obama hasn’t changed since I’ve known him. He hasn’t. He’s always been disciplined, empathetic, temperate, intellectual, inquisitive, compassionate, self-critical, and an excellent listener.” Jarrett continued to note that the President’s capacity to multitask effectively was incredible. “Going from one meeting on terrorism, to another on mortgage foreclosures, to another, and another … his focus and ability to pay attention, coupled with the energy to see conversations through without rushing to a decision, but rather bringing a discussion to its logical conclusion is remarkable.”
Alabama Animal Farm
If you live in Alabama, you gotta love those rascally state legislators. We’ll be reminding you about this come voting time. I expect we could find upwards of 57 more examples just like this from the other states in the union.
Alabama Legislature Pay Raise – Never Forget <come voting time>
<Your Alabama Legislature At Work For You!>
Article from 2009 April 28 by Brian with flashpoint blog.
Back in March 2007 the Alabama legislature laid out a bold challenge to Alabama voters. It was the first year of their four year term. On the second day of the regular session the majority Democrats rammed through the very first piece of legislation of the session with a coordinated effort to get it through both houses on voice votes. The legislation (HJR 29) raised their pay by a whopping 62% effective at the beginning of the session. Governor Riley vetoed the pay raise, but on March 20th both houses voted to override his veto – on recorded votes – and put the pay raise into effect.
The circumstances surrounding the 62% pay raise made it clear that the legislators planned it specifically in a way to minimize the chance of voter retribution.
* Not one single legislator mentioned the pay raise only months before on the campaign trail. Not one.
* It was the very first item to pass that session. They tried to put as much time between the pay raise and the next elections as possible.
* The well orchestrated passage through both houses on voice votes was done to “sneak” it through before anyone would notice. They knew it was wrong and would be unpopular.
* Even after the veto and overwhelming groundswell of public opposition they voted to put the raise into effect anyway.
The bottom line is that they thought we would forget their self serving votes. Prove them wrong.

Your AlabamaTeaParty.org goes Pro!
Your AlabamaTeaParty.org website is moving to a new format to consolidate the blog with the website. (The name and url remain the same!!!) The move will take a couple of days to complete and then we’ll be just as good as the big dogs like Michelle Malkin, Barack Obama, Phil Donahue, Glenn Beck, and countless other famous conservative bloggists.
The only difference is that unlike them, we already have an AWESOME presence in the search engines. When you search for the MOST CONSERVATIVE Blog or MOST CONSERVATIVE Website now, we’re at or near the top anyway. It will get even better.
First, we’re having all the fun promoting the most conservative agenda with unique and thought provoking articles.
But second….although we are probably getting several million views daily now, well, after the move is completed, it will most likely go to several billion…and that my friends, presents commercial possibilities. No doubt, even a major motion picture contract, a recurring guest spot on Hannity, or perhaps the chance to have our name on the next new cell phone. The AlabamaTeaParty.org Cell Phone. Now that has a ring to it!
AlabamaTeaParty.org Solicits Your Help

Keith Olberman on Tea Party Correctness
The video below is something I’m about 99% sure you haven’t seen, and something I can’t wholeheartedly recommend. I wouldn’t have seen it myself, except I just happened to be channel surfing and caught the word “tea party” which stopped me long enough to catch the last half of this really important opinion piece.
It was delivered by none other than the noted MSNBC journalist, Keith Olberman.
To him, I say, “So what’s your point?” I honestly don’t get what you were trying to impart to us Tea Party types. Really. No kidding. I just don’t get it.
So, I went in search of his imperious comments and surely enough found it on the MSNBC website. I retrieved the code so you could, if you really have nothing better to do, view it as I did.
Among other things, Olberman asks us to look around at our next TeaParty rally and count the number of people who aren’t white.
To Olberman, I say, it is an inarguable fact that skin colors besides caucasian aren’t overly represented at TeaParty rallies. In this you are correct. But then I say, whose fault is this? Certainly not the fault of the people who are obviously white. The invitation to join with a TeaParty event is, the last time I checked, color blind.
There is no ethnic correctness test. There is no color guard at the door. Color, gayness, ethnicity, creed, or use of the Spanish language is NOT a factor in the belief systems of TeaParty folks or a bar to the door of freedom.
All that matters is that when you choose to come, you come to advocate for conservative principles. All who come of like mind will be welcomed with open arms and glad embrace. More, even the merely curious are likewise welcomed and encouraged in the hope that they will find common cause.
I truly don’t get your point, Keith Olberman. The more I think about it, the more static I incur. Obviously what you said was heartfelt…
Unfortunately however, at the best, it came across as a lame attempt to fill time with high sounding, yet hollow philosophy. In actuality, it was disjointed prattle, laced with age old decayed cliche, silky insult, and race bombs. TeaParty folks don’t play that game.
The Perils of Obama
It has gotten to the point that some conservatives are actually starting to feel sorry for President Obama (May his persona be blessed 72 times.)
Ok ok… Sit back down. Stop yelling. We’re realists here…maybe not too sorry….
You know, by virtue of your radio and television, that the man is pounded incessantly by the right, namely Rush, Hannity, Beck, and others.
Even here, from time to time, on what has been called the MOST CONSERVATIVE BLOG IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, the man is on rare occasions held up as a presidential pariah and train wreck.
No wonder the poor guy is confused and righteously besnarfed at the right’s continuous pilfration of his pusillanimous policies.
Increasingly dependent on his teleprompter, even it, an inanimate object, is suspect in its loyalties.
The smallest, most inconsequential, oral mistake, (corps), is magnified by the right as a failure in his ability to lead when he doesn’t even know the lingo of his tradecraft as Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Corpses of the United States of America.
No doubt a really low budget, no star SF movie is already in the developmental stages at the newly named Syti-Fiti Channel to exploit his problem with the American historical language…. I have a name… The Pride Of The Press Corpse (See my pick for the lead news corpse movie star…)
Clever marketing will ensure that at least all the members of the nationwide press corpses will be watching on the evenings it is offered for viewing..again and again.
But, the point of this commentary isn’t new corpse movies. No. The point is that I DO understand why President Obama feels the heat from the right…and just maybe… from his corpse comments… from down below as well.
The poor guy. His problem is that from the moment he was offered the chance to run for President, he decided to speak to only a very narrow segment of the population…the progressives, who just also happen to be the elites and the pointy headed leftward news pundits.
Of course the rest of the country, ignored, is going to take verbal aim at him. Simply put, he brung it on himself, and stubbornly refuses to learn his lesson.
Glenn Beck and the Ship of State
In case you haven’t noticed, your AlabamaTeaParty.org blog is sort of indebted to Glenn Beck. The fact is that there wouldn’t be an ATP anything, were it not for Beck. He challenged us to step up, and we took the challenge. We don’t know what good, if any, we have done, but it beats just cussing at the TV and radio.
The Glen Beck Show is sort of like an advanced nightly college course in American Government. It’s a shame that there is no college credit available, because, though his course is in-depth, challenging, and demanding, you can’t claim it for credit toward your degree at Freedom U.
Beck…many like him, some hate, despise, and ridicule him. But have you noticed? As vile and violent as the harangues are… (even some by his brother and sister pundit peers) nobody has come forward to actually refute him.
Beck’s greatest strength and weakness is that he presents to us, logically, and irrefutably, political concepts that many find alien to everything they ever knew. It’s a weakness in that not everyone is able or willing to follow his rather substantial curriculum.
Let me help Beck, in a small way. Thanks to him, I was introduced to the book, Liberal Fascism by J.Jonah Goldberg (Right)… The book is tedious. Goldberg works with one hand on the keyboard, and the other rapidly thumbing through his dog eared thesaurus looking for ever more strange words that no one has ever heard of. It’s strictly college level. Yet, the book refuses to be laid away unfinished.
After you take the book, burn it, and treat the ashes with strong chemicals, the residue that is left is this…
Whereas our core belief is that our American Constitution is immutable and sacred, and the most wise governing document ever conceived….the shocking fact is that not every American feels that way…
The fact is that there are powerful people who believe that they can cobble up a new book of governing laws better than what we have now. They dabble with political theory for a hobby and make rules that all must live (or die) with for fun and enjoyment. To them it’s a game.
Generally speaking, the people who do not believe as you or I do are called “progressives.” We have one running the country now, with a passel of like minded lieutenants in congress.
To us, our belief in the United States Constitution is akin to our belief in God. We unfortunately don’t understand all of it, but we firmly believe in it…the same way we believe the ocean always touches the shore. It’s just a fact of nature. It’s kept the country strong since the founding and made the U.S.A the envy of the world. History shows that it is the system that works.
The progressive, on the other hand, is a constitutional atheist on an ego trip. He lives by a set of ever changing cockamamie rules that are beyond logic. What’s more, he insists that you live by them too. Where you base your beliefs on history, the progressive bases his on the political flavor of the day. His constitution is a living document, not bogged down by historical precedent. He’s the smartest one in the room, you see, and you and I are just too dumb to worry with.
More is the pity, if the progressive gets his way. He can’t see more than 5 minutes into the future, and to him, the past is irrelevant. His method of catch as catch can…can only work as long as the ship of state we all sail in remains seaworthy. While he’s busy up forward, painting the ship’s wheel, the entire length of the hull is rotting away underneath him. Sooner, rather than later, the damage is beyond repair, and the ship sinks, taking all hands with her…us included.
Beck sees what’s coming if the shadows of the future aren’t changed. Goldberg sees it too. All faithful Beck viewers see it.
Hannity has a secret plan…
