No. Teabaggers are social and religious conservatives first and foremost, and economic issues are almost an afterthought. Teabaggers are simply the people who put Bush in office: evangelicals and an assortment of crazy right-wingers.
How else do you explain Todd Akin, and Michelle Bachmann, Queen of the Teabaggers?
Tea party is to Republicans. As Left wing liberals is to democrats.
The real US population is more towards the middle.
I don't support right wing Tea party even as a conservative Republican. They claim they are against big government yet they want to protect their Medicare. Hypocrites.
Same thing with left wing liberals. They want equality for all but fail to individuals all are different with different motivations. You can only provide a social safety net for only so long. When do u stop?

So this is what the left wing media tells you about the tea party. ALL OF THEM RIGHT, just like ALL blacks are the exact same, just like ALL liberals are the same. Just like ALL of the 47% are the same.

You don't know what you're talking about and calling people names is three year old behavior. It's almost like how people lump opinion jockeys with reporters and call them news reporters because they don't know the difference. The objectives/core principles of the two largest tea party organizations (Tea Party Patriots and Tea Party Express) are as follows:
FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY means not overspending, and not burdening our children and grandchildren with our bills. In the words of Thomas Jefferson: “the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity [is] swindling futurity on a large scale.” A more fiscally responsible government will take fewer taxes from our paychecks.
CONSTITUTIONALLY LIMITED GOVERNMENT means power resides with the people and not with the government. Governing should be done at the most local level possible where it can be held accountable. America’s founders believed that government power should be limited, enumerated, and constrained by our Constitution. Tea Party Patriots agree. The American people make this country great, not our government.
FREE MARKET ECONOMICS made America an economic superpower that for at least two centuries provided subsequent generations of Americans more opportunities and higher standards of living. An erosion of our free markets through government intervention is at the heart of America’s current economic decline, stagnating jobs, and spiraling debt and deficits. Failures in government programs and government-controlled financial markets helped spark the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. Further government interventions and takeovers have made this Great Recession longer and deeper. A renewed focus on free markets will lead to a more vibrant economy creating jobs and higher standards of living for future generations.
Tea Party Express:
Tea Party Express is proud to stand for six simple principles:
•No more bailouts
•Reduce the size and intrusiveness of government
•Stop raising our taxes
•Repeal Obamacare
•Cease out-of-control spending
•Bring back American prosperity
