It really is. His tactic to prove he is right is by measuring how hard he can pound his fist on the desk and how angry he gets.

Maybe we should pretend that the desk doesn't exist!

Matt1970 is pretty much in line with tea people thought. He lives in an alternate reality that he has constructed for himself (one that contains no minorities of any type). This is like the tea party that is consuming the GOP. They think that their looney bin candidates actually are electable at the national level.

If the GOP wants to see how they can save themselves, they need to purge themselves from people like Matt1970 who tell others to pretend that black people don't exist. You cannot win elections in reality if you live in an alternate reality.

Maybe if you can quote me saying that the desk doesn't exist you would have something. Until then you are just another liar behind a keyboard. Enjoy.

Maybe if you can explain yourself about how you're not a racist despite demanding that we pretend that black people don't exist, you would have something. But of course you aren't because you were already subjected to laughter and ridicule when you made your now infamous racist statement.

Until then, you are just a troll. And you are the tea person type who is going to consume the GOP.

Oh now I am demanding that we pretend that black people don't exist. What are you going to make up next?

You are the one who cannot prove what they are accusing others of being yet insist they prove otherwise. YOU are the troll.

*EDIT* and like I said numb nut, my proof of not being a racists is the lack of evidence to the contrary. See how that works? Probably not you dumbass.

This is a perfect example of the tea party's delusional nature. This Matt1970 fellow just pretends that his own racist past and racist record doesn't exist. The tea party is the troll of American politics, just like Matt1970 is the troll of the internet.

You and the tea party will be defeated. We will not tolerate your racism.

Does the Tea Party want moderate Republicans to lose more than they want Republicans to win in the general election?

When the Tea Party goes after a Republican who has been in Congress awhile and is pretty much guaranteed of winning the General Election, do they care more about defeating them in the primary than they do about winning the election?

In other words, is the Tea Party willing to lose congressional seats by defeating sure win Republican incumbents in primaries who are too moderate, in their view?

Except we aren't losing power for being conservative, we're losing seats for being too MODERATE. Just look at Romney. He lost because he was too moderate. He gave up on being the kind of Severe Conservative we helped forge him into during the primary. Yet, he betrayed us and sold us out for moderation. He even agreed with Obama on a couple things in the last debate! :whiste: What we need to do is double down. And if that doesn't work, quadruple down and so forth until success is achieved. Moderation and compromise just send a message of weakness. It isn't hard to know what the right thing to fight for is. Just look at what Obama is for and do the opposite.

Unfortunately the only way to fix the Republican Party is to have the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future visit each and everyone of them.

It's the only proven method for curing them.

Check out this documentary.
