How is this in any way relevant to what I said? I didn’t say I had the solution, I said that tea partiers have been very clear that they want lower taxes and less government intervention into their lives.

Except that, when actually pressed for examples of what they would cut, they have nothing to offer (witness Rand Paul recently walking back his proposal to slap a $2,000 deductible on Medicare).

So, it is false to suggest that Tea Partiers are “honest” about their aims, when in reality it’s the same old GOP bullshit: cut taxes and leave spending the same, because “deficits don’t matter” (until the Dems are in charge).
