I believe it because it is true.
And yes indeed, Koch Industries does hurt America.
The Tea Party is a movement of ordinary citizens armed with protest signs, whistles, silly costumes, respect for our Constitution and a love for our nation. If Koch Industries can make money from that, more power to 'em.
Each time I've attended a Tea Party event I've purchased a poster board or two and wrote my concerns on them with a black marker. I drove myself there, held up my sign(s), cheered, jeered, and sang God Bless America with grandparents who don't want this debt passed to their grand children, teen-agers who don't want this debt passed to them and people, like myself, who understand if the federal government selectively ignores the Constitution today, they will ignore all of it in the future.

The tea party is a movement of illiterate extreme right wing citizens who are armed and ready to overthrow the government. Is this every tea party type, no, of course not, but you cannot deny there are thousands who fit this mold.

Really? Then why is it we see all the violence and support for violence comming from the left?
The left don't know anything about the Tea parties past the left winger propaganda they suck up like mothers milk.

What relevance does the actions of the left bear on the tea party. The tea party is what it is regardless of the left. Another post trying to deflect from a post.

Well, then that really is scary because these "illiterate extreme right wing citizens who are armed and ready to overthrow the government" have been extremely successful in getting candidates elected and are widely supported by "likely voters".
52 percent of likely voters are more likely to vote for a Tea Party-supported congressional candidate. For self-identified Republicans, 75 percent are more likely to vote for a Tea Party-supported candidate, as are 51 percent of self-identified Independents.
54 percent of likely voters support the Tea Party movement.
79 percent of likely voters believe the American dream could be destroyed for current workers by the U.S. federal debt and U.S. federal spending, as do 83 percent of self-identified Independents.

Five hundred people attended the summit, which The New Yorker said served, in part, as a training session for Tea Party activists in Texas. An advertisement cast the event as a populist uprising against vested corporate power: “Today, the voices of average Americans are being drowned out by lobbyists and special interests. But you can do something about it” without making any mention of its corporate funders. The White House has expressed frustration that such sponsors have largely eluded public notice - David Axelrod, President Obama’s senior adviser, said, “What they don’t say is that, in part, this is a grassroots citizens’ movement brought to you by a bunch of oil billionaires.”[28]...'
