If you are right and I fear you are, then this country is doomed to live under a fascist dictatorship.

I watched the same exchange, and shouted some expletives at the TV. One needs to remember that Goldberg is a liberal, and O'Reilly is a moderate fence sitter. Neither one understand what the Tea Party is about, or really understand GOP politics.

I know. I have always voted because I would vote for a piece of roadkill than any democrat and would rather have a Rino than any democrat but I know many conservatives who I admire who will not vote rather than make that choice. I sympathise with both sides.

Being a Tea Party member I realize the party will never run the show unless they slowly chip away at the RINO's. It took the left wing damn near 40 years to take control of the democratic party.
The Tea Party are the real heros in this mess. They are being attacked unfairly because their real agenda is not as it is presented by the media. The campaign to destroy the Tea Party is led by the media and supported by the Democrats and also by the mainstream Republicans.
The public is ignorant of the facts and chooses not to learn.
How do we turn this around?

Liberty,
You ought to check out the Libertarian Party since you can tolerate neither the Democrats nor the Republicans. While the Dems are officially liberal and the Reps officially "conservative," Libertarians take the good from each and blends them into a completely logical stance. Very briefly, Libertarians are economically conservative but socially liberal. Economic position: Define the role of government very narrowly as the Original Constitution did. The Framers saw the government as protecting the nation from foreign aggressors, dealing with other countries, handling domestic matters involving more than one state, providing a system of Federal courts, and guaranteeing rights as provided by the first ten amendments. There were a few more things as well but these are the "core." Libertarians accept the above as pretty much all that the National government should handle. Everything else is left to the states or the "people," the "people" being persons legally in this country.
Socially, Libertarians are "liberal" in the sense that people can do pretty much do what they want as long as they don't intentionally harm others physically or economically, refrain from the use of force against others to the extent possible consistent with protecting themselves, pose involuntary duties (such as taxes or military service) beyond the absolute minimum required for the good of the country. This would include the use of recreational drugs such as alcohol, marijuana, and any activity not intentionally impinging on the rights of others such as prostitution, gambling, viewing pornography by adults but not supplying it to minors, and a host of other activities not impinging of the rights and freedoms of others.
These are the basics. You can go here for the details.
