GOP on Wicked Path of Self-Destruction

by Steve Eichler J.D.

Let it be known the day of elephant intimidation is over!
(Steve Eichler) – The attack on the Tea Party has been cruel and malicious [i] but now the attacks are coming from people we believed were Patriots.

In recent days, Speaker of the House John Boehner [ii] along with other Republicans have openly scorned and attacked the Tea Party without provocation. They trumpet claims that they are going to wage war against the biggest overnight success in American politics, a behemoth movement extraordinaire. Even the National Chamber of Commerce jumped on the “Kill the Tea Party” bandwagon. We have to wonder why the Chamber would do this considering that more than thirty percent of Tea Party members are self-employed business owners.


The Tea Party has heard this revolting rhetoric before but typically it spews forth from progressive liberals who are dead set against anyone challenging their plans to install their socialist agenda and destroy the Constitution. It is becoming obvious the Republican Party sees those who love the Constitution, embrace American exceptionalism and publicly pledge allegiance to the flag as a danger and in opposition to the bloated elephant party.

However, while not all the members of the Tea Party are Republicans, a large portion of them are which begs the question: who will tens of millions of Tea Party members donate their money to?
Will tens of millions of Tea Party loyalists give to those who have declared war against the Tea Party [iii]?

Soon the pompous elephant will come courting, begging for donations, trying desperately to lure donors back into the Republican stockyard. However, their conceit has festered and turned rancid as donation dollars ice over.

Ask yourself: where are the tens of millions of Tea Party members going to send their money to over the next few months? Will they send their financial support to an insulting and belittling sick elephant—or to grassroots Tea Parties with beliefs and convictions that mirror their own and to those where their neighbors, friends and loved ones are fully engaged?
Let it be known the day of elephant intimidation is over.

If the Republican Party continues on their poisonous and vengeful path, the lack of fundraising will stunt their growth. Hunger for donation dollars will begin to ripple across the country. Their bank accounts could become barren, stripped of donations as panic and financial famine sweep across the Republican Party. The GOP will feel weak and poor, suffocated and cut off from the core of their constituents.
It seems the Republican Party is hell-bent on self-destruction. Their path of destruction can be avoided, but it’s going to take a strong dose of tea.

As the Republican Party chokes on their own self-importance they will wonder why they have such a lack of nourishment flowing into their coffers. They will become impoverished and deprived of the very substance they need to sustain their lofty dreams of owning the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives.
The Tea Party, while only a few years old, has risen from a handful of devoted Americans into tens of millions of loyalists of all colors, religions, political persuasions and lifestyles—all uniting under a common theme for the protection of the Constitution and American exceptionalism.

There are conservative organizations that continue to grow fat and pudgy, stout on their lucrative and rich donations coming from Patriots who have grown financially portly on the free enterprise system. Tens of millions of Tea Party members will no longer listen to the cry of the hungry Republicans scratching at their doors, begging for their support—even a crumb. The Tea Party loyalist base has grown far beyond the imagination of even most enlightened Washington Pharisees. [iv]
Democrats hate the idea of a successful movement such as the Tea Party that they cannot control. Republicans are livid over the notion conservatives can swell up from their own ranks and do a better job of empowering the core of America.

One of the brightest lights in the Tea Party movement is www.teaparty.org. Reaching millions of Tea Party loyalists, they’ve quietly been building for years in breadth and depth. As a matter fact, just one of the Teaparty.org websites has over 38,000 active bloggers. Can any Republican cluster say that?
When one adds up all of the Tea Parties, in all of the villages, towns and cities across the United States, from coast-to-coast, from Alaska to Florida, from Vermont to Hawaii, how can anyone possibly believe the Tea Party is a flash in the pan and not a gigantic movement reaching down to the very core of the American people?

Why the hell would the Republican Party declare war on the very people they need if they ever want to win again? The Republican Party should be embracing the rank-and-file of this homegrown phenomenon; instead they politically urinate on the idea of the Tea Party.
I ask: will the Republican Party damn itself to a Humpty Dumpty existence? Today’s version of the familiar old rhyme goes like this: “Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall, all the Washington men and all the Washington women couldn’t put Humpty Dumpty together again.”

The Tea Party does not want Humpty Dumpty to have a great fall, nor die from starvation; however, we are warning the GOP they are on the path to grand and wicked self-destruction.
The Tea Party will survive, but can the same be said of the Republican Party?
