why is it crazy? because it's not the same view as you? the tea party is only gaining more and more ground and it's simply because they are saying what everyone is thinking.

i think you would find you have a lot in common with many of the people in these groups.

the problem is there is as of yet a central and nationwide group that has real leadership. its still a loose affiliation of many smaller 'tea parties' which some have cause bad publicity for the rest.

its a grassroots group and only going to get bigger

No actually you are wrong on most counts there, do some research and you may learn a bit.

I am not a part of the Tea Party but I do know that a majority are actually on the Libertarian side of things and it does not embrace racism in any way shape or form.

Pretty typical to call anyone who doesn't suck obamas dick a racist simply because he is half black, but all those running around afraid to speak against him for the same reason are absolutely normal and not racist. Get real and quit equating dissatisfaction with the political system as being racist

Libertarian does not have anything to do with liberal

you are in Mass correct?
Maybe you should get news sources from outside your painfully liberal state and do your own research instead of being spoonfed your opinions for a change.

no
Here's the problem's i have with the Tea baggers:chuckles:
1. where were these people at when bush was spending us into oblivion?
(China is now the second largest holder of U.S. debt, with more than $260 billion in U.S. Treasury securities)

2. Why is it when you talk to these people they always want to talk about,obama's spending and how they want to take things back to the good ole day's circa 1970?

I mean did these people just wake the fuck up yesterday?
Our country has been eroding away since Lydon Johnson was in fawking office.

The good ole day's are fawking gone "Get use to it"
Our government has fawk us all Democrats/Republicans doesn't matter.

oh! and Having Sara Palin as your spokesman is not a good look either

Sarah Palin as their spokesman is why I stay far away from it. She is the worst thing to associate any movement with aside from a bowel movement.

I am a libertarian in beliefs and registered as an independant, I have yet to see a single party even come close to a true representation of the founding principles of this country so fuck every one of the parties available.
