The New York Times reported that most or all “active Tea Party organizers/members/leaders are recieving government assistance such as Social Security & Medicare”. The article stated “Many Tea Party supporters argue for smaller government even as they argue it should do more” under a picture of the flopped rally this wekend in Search Light, Nevada.
Is the Tea Party movement “baking their cake and eating it too”?
Absolutely, I am speculating the majority of them are recieving government assistance that goes further than just Social Security & Medicare. This story written by the New York Times gives strength to the hidden agenda of “race related” among other things this movement is REALLY UPSET ABOUT! They constantly criticize every move the Obama administration makes and then secretly reap the benefits of government help or “big government so to speak.” I predict they are upset by the fact that now they must share government assistance with Americans whom they feel are not the right race to be in the same category as them. One must keep in mind the fact that there are many different and diverse groups recieving government assistance. Once the economy dropped a certain class of people were affected in a manner they assumed were beneath them. The reality of it was they were not the superior group after all and this upset them beyond words.
Middle-Upper Class whites recieving government assistance and the audacity of any minorities recieving the same benefits angers them. It is scary and on many levels a secret among these Tea Party Extremist.
You have your middle-high class whites on unemployment and/or recieving food stamps, mortgage assistance etc. When in the past this type of help from the government was for minorities only in their feeble minds. Now, they have set out to try and hold onto a bit of “i am better than you attitude” by becoming a “Tea Party Activist” while still depending on government assistance. You have Tea Party Organizer/Activist Mr. Tom Grimes, “who receives Social Security, organized a local group”. Diana Reimer, 67, a star player for Freedom Matters/Tea Party is also recieving government assistance. Their argument is they earned that money, kinda a double-edged sword without the patriot sign. They assume they are the only Americans deserving of these “government benefits”. Well, history has proven them wrong in many ways. The Huffington Post reports “Many Tea Party Activist, out of work, turn to government”. Yep, the racist signs and language are real and the activist are racially motivated.
