Meh, they're annoying Obamabots enough to have them go out of their way to attend their candidates' rallies. Just like that teacher from Oregon who got busted and almost fired from his teaching job. That's good enough for me!

I think it was his version of "Punked", politically speaking.
The Founding Fathers Did Not Wear Tinfoil Hats

So, I have to ask, did the Rand Paul Campaign deliberately want to point him out for their own spin? The first thing the guy should of asked the kid is "Why are you wearing a tin foil hat at our rally"
Did you watch the video? When Busted he still denied it. He still tried to say he was a Rand supporter. No Tin Foil hat none of that.

The media covers their every move so it's kind of hard to
ignore them It's not just the left that aren't crazy about them.

There are those that know the tea party movement was hijacked from the '07Paul crowd. Most know, that what the tea party has become, is looking very much like the evangelical base of the Republicans last election - the group most responsible for the Republican's loss in the last election.

Personally, I think the Tea Party movement should merge with the Constitution Party. After all, the ideas and views they have, are identical to CP. Nothing really original about it - just given another name.

Hes not a kid.Hes a grown man.

I am sure the left would like people to not make that much of it. This just proves to the levels the left will go to win. The creditablity is fading for the left
