Hijacking the “Tea Party” theme as a rallying cry is lame. The original tea party was a protest against taxation without representation. The only reason these people don’t have “representation” is that they have been too lazy or complacent or uninterested to do something to actually get their candidates elected into office. They yap about an impending revolution when all they ever needed to do is use the electoral process the founding fathers put in place. When they use the Tea Party theme they insult the spirit behind the original.


Perfectly said. from the beginning, it was tea party???? why the hell are you choosing this as a theme? Bad analogy of course. (Glenn Beck was the reason, remember!)
