Tea Party Express IS NOT Tea Party.

Here's their website.."Tea Party Express" is there but that's what they call their "bus tours" to various states. Slimey..very slimey politics folks.

Bumping my own frigging post so you guys can see....this is NOT the Tea Party who wrote this letter.

This PAC is Republican based..and Tea Party Express is the name of their bus tours to promote THEIR people.

Uh, not so fast. Look what I found with a simple google search:

The Tea Party Express | Just Vote Them Out | March 27th through April 15th | Tea Party | teapartyexpress.org

Don't be afraid to play around with this website:

That's their bus tour. I clicked on a few of those links and the other sites are not much better.

Knowing the Tea Party and what it WAS supposed to stand for..how can any of them support Palin ?
The whole dang movement is awash in extremists and angry Repubicans hell bent on revenge.
