Mr. Conyers had this to say:
"If you're a Democrat and don't come out to vote, it could cost us some seats in some places in the state [of Michigan]. But we're here now to understand the frustration of the 'Teabaggers' and the people that are angry. Because many times, when you're angry, your rational abilities are compromised. And you get made at the wrong party or the wrong thing, or whoever's the president. The facts are, that many of the 'Teabaggers' that were hollering, and being profane, and screaming, and using profanity... Guess what? They are going to be beneficiaries. But they don't know it. And so we have... no we have to let them benefit."
First of all, the term "Teabaggers" is a derogatory term first used by the Lame Stream Media to besmirch and degrade the Tea Party movement. Conyers uses it to insult the movement.
Second, he believes that we are angry and we cannot think rationally. Unfortunately, he only got it half right. We ARE angry but we CAN and DO think quite rationally. We get it! That's WHY we are angry. We are tired of the name calling and insults hurled our way by career politicians. We are mainstream Americans. Because we disagree with government policies, Progressives like Conyers label us:
- Truthers
- Birthers
- Tea Bag Terrorists
- Teabaggers
- Extremists
- Racists
- Agitators
- Astro turf
- Tea Party Activists
- Oath Keepers
- un-American
- Nazis
- Evil-mongers
- Right-wing Militias
- Aryan groups
- neo-Klansmen
- knuckle-dragging hillbillies
- Traitors
"Beneficiaries" he call us! Yes! We have just become beneficiaries of one of the greatest tax increases and government takeovers in the history of America. That's NOTHING to brag about! A one party vote passed ObamaCare and we now are the "beneficiaries" of your corruption, behind the doors deals, bribes, and God knows what else you did to pass that gigantic entitlement that punishes senior citizens.
Action to Take
Wake up Michiganders! Vote Conyers out of office. He's a career politician and needs to be out on the street looking for a job like the bulk of Michigan residents.
