If that is okay to you then why the scam, and just say what it really is?
Why don't you seem to care about people like George Soros who also donate millions of dollars to left leaning "grass roots" causes?

You spend an awful lot of time trying to convince everyone here the TEA Party is a bad thing. The bulk of your "evidence" comes in the form of agenda driven opinion pieces by fellow liberals. It seems the only people buying into your efforts are those that already share your beliefs.

The fact that there are some wealthy individuals helping to fund some aspects of the TEA Party does not refute their message. Rich people contribute to parties on all sides of the political spectrum. You certainly don't seem to be posting any pieces complaining about all the rich people contributing to the Democrat party.

Perhaps you should consider finding a new hobby as your efforts at discrediting the TEA Party don't seem to be gaining much traction.

I find it hard to believe anyone takes this commie kook seriously, but God Bless America.

Why does Ron Paul worry about the Tea Party being hijacked? He is not a liberal.

No Ron Paul is not a liberal. I'm a Ron Paul supporter and agree with the majority of his positions.

That said the OP in this thread doesn't seem to be complaining about the fact that there are those trying to hijack the TEA Party to further their own agendas. She simply posts a never ending stream of ill sourced hit pieces that appear to be directed at discrediting the entire TEA Party movement.

There are plenty of mainstream sources about the real Koch Oil Party. What is the real purpose of "Tea" Party, I would be willing to bet 99.9% of the "Tea Partiers" have incomes under $250,000.
The "Tea" Party only makes sense if you are a billionnaire oil tycoon that wants a large following to vote for policies (no regulations, no corporate taxes, etc) only affecting >>>KOCH INDUSTRIES (includes oil and chemicals).

Of course I do, especially when it comes with a flashy logo.
