Obfuscation at its worst: Only the Tea Party can say what it is, but nobody speaks for the Tea Party so nobody can say what it is. And if you try to confirm what it is by repeating something they say, then you’re just dead wrong because somebody else will come out and say that they don’t believe that this is what the Tea Party stands for.

Hitchens debates people like this all the time and described it best, which I’ll paraphrase here. It’s “Politics a la carte”, and I’m not having any of it, thank you.
