White House: Tea Party 'Terrorists' Criticism Inappropriate

The White House said on Tuesday that the use of the word “terrorists” to describe Tea Party Republicans is inappropriate and the “product of an emotional discussion” about the debt ceiling.
On Monday, Politico reported that, during a meeting between Vice President Joe Biden and House Democrats ahead of the House's vote on the debt ceiling deal, Rep. Mike Doyle (D-Pa.) argued that Democrats “have negotiated with terrorists.”

OK so your telling me your fine with having almost half if not half of your pay go into taxes where they say each year "whelp we have to raise more taxes" are you then going to go out and buy a new car or boat or house instead of mile or bread? seeing how bread and mile and other products prices have raised 20% each year in the cost yet it doesn't cost anymore now than it did in the early 1900's to make bread and milk...

what makes it cost more is gas, tolls, and other POS fees...


Get a clue, its not the repubs its ANY govt official that will put us here not just one side...

All the Tea Party wants (at least, it's major demand), is to STOP SPENDING money we don't have. The Democrats are so used to spending every dollar in sight and then TAXING us more for their failures, that they regard any effort to limit their spending as "terrorism".

I voted for Tea Party because Obama:
- won't teach my kids that the earth is flat
- won't let me hunt homeless for sport
- still believes in science
- will force innocent millionaires to pay taxes
- doesn't realize I need a missile launcher to protect my family
- wants the gorvernment to take over social security
- won't force muslims to worship jesus
- won't let my company harvest organs of immigrants
- wants to let gays vote.

THAT'S WHY I'M VOTING TEA PARTY.

Sure we are bad guys in their eyes because we are awake now.

If they try to take our guns than we will show them what we are really like.

Democrats should feel as though the Tea Party are terrorists. Tea partiers represent everything the Dems are terrified of. Fiscal responsibility,cost effective spending,free market, low taxes,transparent governing,and above all reducing the size of government. Scary isn't it?

1:25 you forgot racism, bigotry, and lack of information.
But, hey, what do you expect from a group that names itself after a tax revolt and yet fails to realize that their taxes actually went down.

Tea party does nothing but damages the republican party.

I like it. You folks are continuing to ensure that democrats will take back the house in 2012 and that Obama will win by a landslide. So thank you.

Don't even try the race card, it doesn't exist with me or the Tea Party.Unless you are living under a rock you have just witnessed one of the most useless and unproductive agreements on our fiscal future that our 2 party system has ever made. We did however, hold off tax increases temporarily.The Tea party as you mentioned, will damege the GOP unless the GOP faces up to what the people want.
The only way the Dems go back into the executive branch is if working people aren't allowed to vote.

Insane rhetoric coming from the left. I say let them spew, it shows the contrast of ideology and class. They always act like this when they don't get their way.

Well, Alex, we welcome you, I guess. Even though you are joining for mythical reasons, perhaps once you are around rational people you will stop killing babies and wanting to confiscate money working people make to support those who won't and coddling illegal invaders and demanding others give validity to your moral confusion. So come on in. You have the disease, but we are the remedy.
