Is the Tea Party losing its oomph?

[blokeinsussex]

im turned off about democrats because they seem lenient on crime

30 days for some car hitting a kid

2 years for "thugs killing the tuba man in Seattle"- google that

i just feel democrats are lax on crime and dont care except if they're the victim and even if they are the victim

Remind me HoF, since when do incumbent politicians determine the length of a criminal's sentence?

i think republicans politicians do and can pass laws to create longer sentences-on the other hand too long can also be bad in some cases

illegal pot is bad -who is more lenient?-well FDR made it illegal

im against death penalty

on the other hand republicans want low taxes or some do and the taxes kept the criminals in jail longer -either way were damned

empty the jails legalize pot

maybe vote the person and not the party

ive thought the same

i was going to google all that about is it true Obama is so "anti -corporate?"

he acts like hes cracking down ,but is he?

hes giving waivers to corporations on the health care law

You think? So you don't know? Sorry chap but you can't have it both ways, either they do or they don't.

No offence, but the comment I originally replied to was just typical anti-leftist nonsense IMO. mile:

The bipolarity of the political debate in the US really does get my goat, it comes across so damnedably childish to those of us on the outside.

yes but politics in uk is differnt than usa i think and you would have to live here to get the feel of it ,so its complicated

if i lived in uk maybe id like labor party but i dont like tony blair

it seems they all suck

yes ive had thoughts like all these damn politicians are so beneath me i dont want to be bothered with them

when youre afraid about national security and the strength of economy you choose i guess

alex jones claims theyre all the same

that woman giffords who was shot and is democrat i like her i think

[HollandofFrance]

id like to google democrats at odds with obama later ,if i have time

senator wyden and oregons peter defazio i sort of like and senator bernie sanders socialist, in vermont
