sleep and a tea party title away in the biggest one found for either party since nineteen forty eight the new one hundred twelfth congress will feature forty tea party members a lot of libertarian leaning individuals within the tea party movement especially when it comes to taxes and over regulations and up to this agenda that is taking us in the long direction it's a message of. limited prostitution government in principle you since you're going to have regulation in the control room at washington's become. there's a new day now the republicans took control of the house in november two thousand and ten very anti government agenda and fact one of their agenda items is to you know take out four government agencies like the part of education part of energy to say when you have politicians elected who want to shut down the government it sets a pretty interesting tone for the debate for me this newfound zeal for the koch's radical free market ideology is the real revolution of the tape party movement has nothing to do with people and y'all clustering waving flags will hold in protest of t

what is the theme to the tea party what is the tea party about is it about just opposing this sort of posing and opposing this or is there an integrated be and that idea i submit to you in the idea i want to show you one today is the idea of the rights of man the basic issue of status of the destruction of the rights of those who produce in the united states and the tea parties of course are the battleground. we are today's cousin or me we are the thin line between freedom and the status of spokeo they want to create freedom is a wonderful thing to fight for it's time for us to join the army and that's something we all wanted to do. in nashville i met up with a collection of libertarian groups crossing the country pitching internet tactics for free market ideals over two hundred years ago guys a group of people just like you did something extraordinary ordinary people doing extraordinary things they were activists just like you i truly believe that they were activists then we are activists now make no distinction about it so what we do we become digital activists we identify the mediu

and for the party.this is why i have made the decision to stand for that position of the leader of the free democrats. >> the fdp has lined up a new young leader of the rest of the party leadership remains. it is up to philipp rosler t show he has what it takes to turn the party's fortunes around. >> so, who is philipp rosler? he is young and very likely to become the deputy chancellor of germany as well as head of the fdp party. right now, he's a member of the chancellor's cabinet as minister of health. beyond that, he's an unknown figure in the german public's consciousness. we have a look at the man creating this country's latest political buzz. >> putting together a new fdp lineup has been a state in calculated moves with winners and losers. the former king has been toppled and is out o othe game. his post looks set to be filled by philipp rosler, 30 years old, and allegros to national promise after being named health minister just a year-and-a-half ago.o. he was a surprise pick in the coalition gov

party? >> which tea party? >> the one at greenwich new jersey. >> no, afterwards. >> it was another tea party i didn't mention the dumped tea at greenwich new jersey which most people have never heard of and i never heard of until i did this book but it's along the delaware river in philadelphia. yes, ma'am? >> can you talk about what source is used for writing the book, or the new ones or the interpretations or? >> well, nothing is new and the sources are almost endless, the equivalent of three of those shelves over there. the diaries and writings of john adams, the writings of john adams are i think seven volumes and diaries of four volumes, the writings of sam adams and of thomas hutchinson, all of these people were prolific writers and kept their correspondence. so it's rich pool of research. yes, sir? >> all of this information be disclosed, why was a dormant for so long? >> let's not dormant, it's there in bits and pieces, and the problem with american history to -- i think i can gener

we're the party of the middle class, the party of growth, the party of opportunity. we're the party that wants to make sure that everybody has a shared sacrifice so we can all share in prosperity, as well as the burden of society. but i'm telling you, this is how it's perceived. and we've got to break that perception. one thing that will help us break this perception is the nature of the changing demographics in this country. i think, jane, you are absolutely right. it's going to change the dynamics of american politics. and this whole politics of racial identity will become transformational at times. we've got to keep moving in that direction. it will be a slow move. we're going look at the last 40 years and say, damn that went by fast, because right now it's going to be slower. but that requires -- and i want to say something about michael. >> >> can you hang on for just a second? >> that brother won. >> he did win. >> he won everything that he was given to win. but he wasn't in the political class that wanted a winner. he served his purpose. i'm sorry, michael. i'

by the tea party they won or lost because of the tea party going to the party yeah we're going to the tea party took over the republican party in the house are going to take over the really make they're able to take over a look at what they're doing in the house it's all a joke they're not equating jobs that you know every american wants the government doing right now i mean job the american people rising to the front is the american people want a simple about the economy as you are a big government shrinks the profits are going to expand you're saying no i'm sure you understand it and you want to say you are saying get out of control budget that's it get that under control i would imagine and they look at the current situation and they say look this government is doing zilch the house is doing zilch to create jobs all they're talking about is cutting and that's going to cut a million jobs around the country what's left of our economic you're quoting that fraudulent number. going to be what he's going to do you know where he wants all along see if you will see are you going to cut a l

party. no question in his mind that he was the leader of the republican party. other people might question that. john boehner does not think of himself that way. he gets a lot of jokes made about his emotionalism. i think there is a genuine humility in him about the position he is in. he does not view his role in politics anywhere near the way that speaker gingrich did back in the 1990's. >> he fell out of leadership. so he has been in the room when he is imposing. one and never really serve for very long in any leadership role before he was in charge. >> let's open it up to the audience. we will start with michael barone in the first row. >> we know who you are. >> speaker boehner, then the minority leader, he was in this room in september saying that he was going to let committee chairman have the lead and encourage the development of bipartisan legislation such as the no child left behind act in which he worked with george miller. we have now really thought of it as a bipartisan thing. he

the party patriots, tea party buddies, tea party guys run according. there will be an event taking place in minnesota, this will be the -- tea party. in the congress itself, among the 80-plus freshman members, there may be 20 that have a connection to a key party organization in their desert. the other 60-;lus influence, but they have no connection to it. everything unpleasant happening around the country is blamed on the tea party. i think that is why the image of the tea party has gone somewhat downhill since the last election. >> also note that there are two party members who are not freshman. >> if anybody is trying to personify it, it is michelle bachmann. it has been helpful to the democrats. the republican party has become a radical in many ways. 42% of identified republicans cannot believe obama was born in this country. that is going right to the legitimacy of the president. there is a group of people in the party who are mad as hell and not taking it anymore, and they are impacting how issues are done with here in washington and at the state

by the tea party they won or lost because of the tea party going to the party yeah we're going to the tea party took over the republican party and it was going to take over the really make they're able to take over a look at what they're doing there how it's all a job regulating jobs that do every american wants the government doing right job you'd never be their eyes doing the business the american people want to simple about the economy as you are a big government strengths the prophecy played spin and you're saying no i'm sure you understand that and you want to say you don't want to get out of control budget that's it get that under control i'm a freshman at our center and they look at the current situation and they say look this government is doing and zilch the house has to exists to create jobs all they're talking about is cutting and that's going to cut a million jobs around the country what does of our economic you're quoting that fraudulent number of. communities going nowhere he wants all along see if you will see i don't because of a letter to follow yet rather he wrote i

tea party and tea party movement were about. far from being patriots, those original tea partyers were mostly smugglers. some of them among the wealthiest men in america. merchants, among them, john hancock. yes, the john hancock who's bold significant on the declaration of independence left his name with the word signature. long before he put his john hancock on the declaration of independence, he was arguably among -- ash blue the wealthiest merchant banker in america on top of boston speak with the hill and commanding view of the massachusetts landscape and seaskip. far from espousing individual liberty, hancock and his fellow merchants in new england governed their businesses and community with economic ruthlessness that often left their competitors homeless and penniless. like today's tea party movement, the colonial tea party had almost nothing to do with tea. tea was nothing more than a social beverage for wealthy women, men seldom drank it, and it ranked below ale and rum, the beverages that american women consumed most.

that base of the party matters. they are the ones with the passion, the ones who helped republicans win in the house. shutting down the government might not be a smart or politically astute move for republicans. his standoff with bill clinton is shut it down back in 1995. bill clinton looks like a big figure. newt gingrich looked small. bill clinton was in the middle of his second term. this will probably be my answer for all of them. there is a win-lose proposition here. tavis: democrats, what do they have at stake here? >> this is about president obama and his brand. he got elected in part by his ability to make washington work again. to be a big enough figure to heal these divides. if congress shut down, he runs the risk of having that tarnished. if you go back to the 1995 example, he is still at the bowling pulled a. if he wants to talk about where republicans shut down the coverage, -- and the government, it will get coverage. republicans are even a little bit more nervous than democrats at the moment. tavis: l

we're the party of the middle class, the party of growth, the party of opportunity. we're the party that wants to make sure that everybody has a shared sacrifice so we can all share in prosperity, as well as the burden of society. but i'm telling you, this is how it's perceived. and we've got to break that perception. one thing that will help us break this perception is the nature of the changing demographics in this country. i think, jane, you are absolutely right. it's going to change the dynamics of american politics. and this whole politics of racial identity will become transformational at times. we've got to keep moving in that direction. it will be a slow move. we're going loo at the last 40 years and say, damn that went by fast, because right now it's going to be slower. but that requires -- and i want to say something about michael. >> >> can you hang on for just a second? >> that brother won. >> he did win. >> he won everything that he was given to win. but heasn't in the political class that wanted a winner. he served his purpose. i'm sorry, michael. i've

coming out if you ever wonder what and who are the driving forces behind the tea party movement i'll talk to the director of a documentary that is uncover the truth behind the money that's funded the so-called grassroots movement. let's not forget that we had an apartheid museum right here in the. i think. one well. whenever the government says if it can feel safe get ready because you get their freedom. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else here's some other part of it and realized everything you thought you knew you don't i'm sorry welcome to the big. yesterday we talked about how the tea party is using grille activism to silence progressive voices on the internet what we discovered was the most of those activism isn't springing up from the grassroots but instead being organized and paid for by super wealthy millionaires and billionaires today we're going to talk about how progressives are fighting back with their own forms of rule activism they go to this documentary jockey old called astro turf wars astr

based on the tea party the tea party is running is driving the train because they drove the frame last november i agree with what is driving the train them is that you have mainstream republicans that are fighting with those tea party and i judge and a detriment the reason that the reason the g.o.p. numbers have fallen in the house since the election is because we face a one point six five trillion dollar deficit and they're cutting sixty six billion it's a joke and the remember a can people know this and it was even bigger joke is that the democrats won't cut that much which is which makes them look patently absurd out of touch with reality and they have no idea what's going on with the american people basic economics and what starting this nation then we're going to raise a point earlier that democrats have been willing to cut it's just not the goal posts seem to continuously be moved on on the republican side and they've come to the table they said we were going to do x. y. and z. and then suddenly the conversation changes absolutely and really the real job here is how people like s

busy party is in the news today a c.n.n. poll released shows that only thirty two percent of americans approve of the movement as a lobbying forty seven percent of americans actually. disapprove of the tea party movement but more interesting than this astroturf movement that was bought and paid for by billionaires mult multimillionaires and the corporations frankly is the real tea party i'm talking about the boston tea party of seven hundred seventy three that autumn a flyer was nailed on people's front doors and trees all over boston in the middle the night signed by an enigmatic character who went under the pseudonym rustic us there's still some debate about who he really was it's make sure that your watchman be instructed as they go on their rounds to call out every night after past twelve be aware of these to india company the east india company conventional wisdom has it that the seven hundred seventy three t. act tax law passed in london the lead right to the boston tea party was simply an increase in the taxes on tea

the national party which was the mubarak party and son. and the movement were allowed to operate in various manner. however they were always wide disciplined in their fleets and their members. but they were operating like say semi officially. now after the dismantling of the national party and collapse of its system and the burning of their headquarters, the whole arena is completely open only for one force which is the muslim bther hood. and therefore, i've been talking to many people, young people, old people, many different people are forming different parties. i found out people are talking more than working still thinking we have time. but the fact is we don't have time because in five months these elections will take place and they will be unfair because all the liberal civil parties pro free economy like myself people would have to reorganize, put themselves in one party and go for a competition against someone who has been waiting for that day for eight years. >> you have created a party. you do not want to be president. >> i do no

but it's more predominant in the republican party, you know, because of the makeup of that party. on the democratic side, it's there, like it was there in california in the early 1990s. i remember barbara boxer called for sending troops to the border, as did dianne feinstein in the early 1990s. >> hinojosa: right. >> and they switched. >> hinojosa: as did governor bill richardson. >> and then they switched. they switched because they said, "okay, who butters my bread within the democratic party?" and in fact, latino voters are heavily concentrated there. and then in california, over the next several years, latinos added a million new voters and punished their enemies and rewarded their friends, and the state became a blue state. it wasn't always a blue state. it was a purple state. this phenomena we're seeing unfold in america now, it's like the california example writ large, where in '08 and in 2010 and probably through 2012, we're going to have these battles over the nature of america. are we going to stay true to our core values? are we going to stay true to the constitution? a

the party voted against those tax reductions. the new democratic party will never cut taxes. >> that is too much to hear you say that. it is not true. >> mr. harper, your numbers do not add up. our numbers do. if you take corporate tax of 18%, and save $6 billion. it is a good, competitive rate. it will attract jobs and investments. that $6 billion you can invest in education. the biggest boost we can give to the economy is investing in education of our children. we can do this without raising taxes on canadian families. >> every credible analyst and business groups as if you raise taxes, you will hurt growth, jobs, and revenue. that is the truth. that is the path we do not want to go down. >> we need to roll back payroll taxes for small and medium businesses that do the hiring. we have unemployment rates of 16% among young canadians. that is something you have not done anything about in office. if we create an incentive to hire a smthe young people, that will create 170,000 jobs. >> we have something we're waiting for parliament

how much power does the tea party have and the threat of tea party wrath have in this particular cycle of tea party drama on capitol hill? >> i'm not sure they control this right now. what you're seeing is a sort of sliding scale here. you have the tea party people who are out rallying today and there weren't really very many of them out there. and you had michele bachmann and steve king from iowa playing to them. now, that's the iowa wing, which really refers to the 2012 presidential campaign. that's michele bachmann already campaigning for caucus votes in iowa in 2012. then you have jim demint who's from south carolina, another key presidential primary state, who's also banging his fist on the table saying you've got to get the 61 billion. meanwhile, the presidential candidates are for the most part staying silent. but i don't know how much pressure demint and bachmann really have on john boehner or even eric cantor in the end. boehner's going to cut the deal. eric cantor's going to squawk but he's probably going to go along with it in the end even as he tells the tea party people th

chris: 2/3 of the tea party people don't like that word compromise. >> the tea party was in part a spasm not just against spending but against the washington establishment. what they're seeing is something like washington business as usual. that's the only way legislation gets passed. this is an lergic reaction to it. chris: according to our polling, the actually people who show up to caucuses like in iowa, they have that in their mindsets. will that keep steering these guys to be truck hasn't, like no deal? >> it will force them to rhetorically express sympathy and at the same time looks for ways to make a compromise. chris: president obama is playing electric like debonair, whistling past the graveyard. herself looking like the come -- compromising. is that because of the polling and because of the sur banyan identities want him to be? >> two reasons. one is the president starts out as a general election candidate. any of the republican presidential contenders have to play hard to the right to satisfy tea party afraids, social conservatives. the president doesn't have to play that game

the tea party patriots, tea party buddies, tea party guys around the corner. an event that's going to be taking place in the next couple of weeks in minnesota. this will be the tundra tea party. [laughter] >> so there's lots of tea party folks around. in the congress itself, among the 80-plus freshmen members there's 10 at the very most 20 that you can look into their background and say, yeah, they've got some direct connection to a tea party organization in their district. the other 60-plus, you know, are certainly influenced by grassroots activity but they have no connection to it. but everything unpleasant happening around the country is blamed on the tea party and a lot of it is at the state level and not the federal level and that's probably why the image of the tea party has gone somewhat downhill since the last election. >> and i also note that there are tea party members who are not freshmen. also. a lot of the votes that defected were not freshmen -- >> well, i think if anybody is trying to per sonfy michele bachmann. but it has been helpful to the de

i would say it is amazing what distinguishes hezbollah as the party of god from all of the other parties they build themselves on the religious ideas and colluding a number of parties that are not related to hezbollah or lebanon. the difference is hezbollah seems to really mean it and seems not to be using the religious credo as an excuse to have a militia with the endless war. they believe sincerely in the religious creed and the endless war and nearly 30 years after their founding they are still growing and the fervor of the followers is still growing. i would point* to the fact they take time and spend money and energy in the religious instruction of the part of what they do and never sideline that that is the first thing they do any military training, health care, it begins and ends with a religious lesson. it is not expedient and that has bled into the community. that is a bad metaphor. it has spread into the foundations of their daily believe structure and and has made them sound like evangelicals when they are not talking about lowered trying to spread the good news how good it is

party. that mix selected mike huckabee, pushing aside mitt romney. senator john mccain for the most part by past iowa for new hampshire. both parties have litmus tests. and this party platforms. the world views which produce them could not be more different. the politician who once said there's not a dime's difference between the two parties could not have been more wrong. about the political situation in iowa. these are not talk so talking points, they're just based on a measure of the objective distinctions between the party platforms and their policy objectives. the iowa democrat party is a coalition of the gay lobby, the abortion lobby, gambling lot, and the state employees union, which includes the state teachers' union and open borders community. the iowa republican party is generally pro-life, traditional family, limited government, balanced budget, and pro- business. the iowa republican party is a moderate by temperament, but contains a constantly irritated and frustrated hard core c
