And I’m not talking about Christine O’Donnell dabbling in witchcraft yrs ago. This is Sharron Angle just last yr.

Autuism and maternity coverage?

"Those are the kinds of things that we want to get rid of.” (Sharron Angle 2009)

:eek:

Further proof to me these Tea Party candidates do not want to “take back their country”. They want to destroy in my opinion many fabrics of decency our country has to offer.

I didn’t give Obama and my congressman high marks. But no wonder when I was polled last night I found myself giving Sarah Palin and the Tea Party the worst possible strongly opposed rating. This stuff is not only alarming but extreme.

She doesn’t want to pay for someone else’s maternity leave through her premiums just like i don’t want to pay for someone else’s abortion and artificial contraception through mine.

If I don’t use it, I don’t want to pay for it.

Indeed, I find much social Darwinism in their rhetoric…survival of the fittest…the minimum safety nets too expensive…for programs that benefit ordinary people

For the military establishment and giant corporations, though, no expense spared.
 
I find the Right-wing extremism of the Tea pArty ti be just as repugnant as the Left-wing extremism of Obama
 
Maybe people are tired of the entitlement society and want to keep more of their own money?

Perhaps Nevada taxpayers are tired of paying for her husband’s pension as well.

She doesn’t seem to get the idea that it’s all connected, that people pay taxes and premiums to spread the liability and benefits.
Nevada really doesn’t have an easy choice this year - I do not like Harry Reid, but Sharron Angle doesn’t seem to be an improvement.

I agree. While I don’t have an incumbant running for Senate this yr, I don’t think my particular congressman is the best choice. I actually voted for his opponent in the primary. But in the general I will vote to re-elect him over his general election opponent. Based on what I hear and see I see no reason for me to go from not the best to worse.

Thank you. Like your bio pretty well. Gave me a laugh. 🙂

Excuse me? That’s not true at all.

Most are tired of Washington DC overspending and waste of their hard earned dollars.

Also, they don’t want their grandchildren to be stuck with our overspending ways.

Many of the Tea Party would like to get rid of these as well, with a return to the Constitutionally mandated requirements on the military (i.e. a standing Navy, and get rid of the standing army. Too much temptation to “spread democracy” to countries that you disagree with). And get rid of corporate welfare altogether.
 
She’s got a point–autism has become the new “cool” diagnosis. If there’s something wrong, but they don’t know what; call it autism. I think that’s the point she’s making; not that autism shouldn’t be covered, but the usage of the term is so amorphous as to be almost meaningless.

She also has a point about maternity coverage that shows a flaw in our current system. Why shouldn’t there be more flexibility in choice of coverage? What’s wrong with that? People who want and need specific coverage should be able to get it. Why should I have to pay for someone else’s maternity coverage and why should they have to pay for my oncologist visits? What’s wrong with choice?

The only time choice is important is when it comes to abortion. Other than that, just sit down, shut up, and do what the government tells you to do.

I have heard about this. I wish these views were heard from more Tea Party candidates, but with people like Sarah Palin and Dick Armey so prominent in the movement, I fear these views will not get any traction.

Ya, well, I fall more into the Ron Paul camp.

Are you kidding me? I’m tired of my money being wildly spent in Washington, DC by Capitol Hill pinheads as well as lazy loafers who have no problems living off of other people’s paychecks and THEY DO IT WITHOUT AN OUNCE OF SHAME.

THIS GRAVY TRAIN CANNOT GO ON FOREVER. :mad:

The Tea Party is concerned with temporal wealth. Now what was it that Jesus said about the wealthy and heaven?
