Win or lose, MANY TEA PARTIERS ARE INELIGEBLE TO HOLD OFFICE!

Rick Perry, Stephen Broden, Sharron Angle, Joe Miller and other tea baggers have at various time during the campaign called for secession, violent overthrow, insurrection, and assassinating their opponents if they lose.

Here's the problem (and the real reason Republicans want to repeal the 14th Amendment).

Section 3 of the 14th Amendment:
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

Okay.

Actually, I'm curious what will come of this if they get in.

I bet congress approves them because they're too terrified of right-wingers...

These people are not teabaggers.

teabagger
multiple meanings. 1) one who carries large bags of packaged tea for shipment. 2) a man that squats on top of a womens face and lowers his genitals into her mouth during sex, known as "teabagging" 3) one who has a job or talent that is low in social status 4) a person who is unaware that they have said or done something foolish, childlike, noobish, lame, or inconvenient. 5) also see "fagbag", "lamer", "noob"

The rest of your post is down right stupid. At least one of those people have won so far. I bet there will be no problem, and time will show you are just being conspiratory.

#4 fits them like a glove.

What's conspiratory about his claims?

Fact: tea partiers are running for office. Fact: some of them have called of secession (not sure about the other stuff). Fact: if you call for secession the 14th Amendment says you can't hold office.

No conspiracies at any point in that thinking.

I thought they were #3. 😂

There are a lot of people who fit under #4, and many of them are in public office right now. As far as the calling for secession, that will be interesting, but most likely, nothing will come of it. Wait, I take it back, there is one unavoidable outcome; more stupid threads to come. 😛

Well, at least Christine O' Donnell didn't get elected 😐

Now that the election is over, can we stop calling them Teabaggers and get back to calling them what they really are, Republicans? Of 138 candidates, not one of the candidates supported by this 'non-partisan, independant group' were democrats. They were all Republicans. It seemed a risky move to split the party, but in the end they didn't really do any better than they would have anyway.

I still don't even know what the hell these people are on about.

I like their humility most:

calling them "racist religo-facists" is too much of a mouth full though...

Wow, the last time I saw someone try to get their followers to act like Nazis was in Kickassia.

Last time I saw it was at that Rand Paul rally, where they actually stomped people on the head and then claimed they didn't do more because their health insurance didn't cover their bad back.

I love a parade.

They did not know that the woman did not have a gun. People have killed politicians before. Just try and give a bogus award to Oboma, and getting stepped on would be your least problem.

Please provide proof that this is real. We all know that the extremist left are not trust worthy.

Even if she did, stomping on her head after three guys have already piled on top of her is excessive.

No. Unfortunate, yes, but in the heat of the moment, things happen. I hope you realize that stepping on this persons shoulder was not premeditated.

Then why did he say he would have done more if he hadn't had a bad back? It was excessive.
