The Tequila Party: October 2011

THE TEQUILA PARTY!

THE ANTI-TEA PARTY

The Tequila Party is about having so much fun with politics in America that we wind up with our head in the toilet at 2 a.m. Just like you should with tequila. Don't agree with me? Well, who gives a crap. Make yourself a margarita. And use fresh limes, damnit!

I was going to get really angry about all the lies I hear coming from Congress, the White House, Fox News, The Onion, etc., but instead I made a pitcher of margaritas and sat on the back porch. Try it!

What does the Tequila Party stand for? Do we really need a full-blown platform? I mean, the Tea Party seems to only be about getting rid of the black guy who stole the White House from the Republicans. Sore losers.

OK, here we go. Let's not let facts get in the way!

Tea Party Nation says, "Stop Hiring!"

That for-profit political organization, the Tea Party Nation, has told it's members to not hire anyone during the rest of Obama's first term. Why? To make him look bad and help defeat him in the next election.

Well, that's a new approach to politics. Screw the unemployed. Personal political results over country!

We hope them don't call themselves true Americans. Or Christians.

What is The Tequila Party's view? We say put people to work on mass transit. It sure would be nice to get a train ride home after three shots of Reposado during happy hour!

Tea Party and the Wall Street Protestors

What's the difference between the Tea Party and the Occupy Wall Street protesters? Are they both fringe elements with single agenda items?

I guess the biggest difference would be the people. The Wall Streeters are young and are of different colors! Both say we've been shafted on the American Dream. Tea Partiers say it's strictly the government's fault--more specifically the Democrats. Wall Streeters say it's the evil corporations who are trying to, gasp, make money!

The Tea Party is anti-bailout, anti-stimulus, sort of anti-corporate welfare, and definitely anti-big gov't. The Wall Street protesters? Not sure if they're anti any of those. I think they just want jobs.

So exactly which America do the Tea Party and the Occupy Wall Street groups want back? Is it the same one? Or complete opposites? And do they really want something back (meaning they once had it) or do they want to turn society into their version of Utopia?

Wouldn't it be interesting if they both got politically stronger (the Tea Party is doing pretty well currently) and formed a common anti-the-way-things-are-now-in-Washington message? The Establishment would be runnin' scared!
