The Tea Party is and always was full of hot air & came to prominence when Obama was elected. They can't Govern their own party & they want to Govern the US? Child please!

To people who spend recklessly, who do not care whatsoever about future generations, and who don't live within their means then Yes to those children the adults who do those things come across as a bunch of losers.

Your answer is business as usual. To keep spending money, to keep getting further into debt, with your entitlements and your war machine. Not one budget bill from the Dems or the Repubs has addressed the overspending our Congress does yet you seem to think that's okay. You have the gall to call the Tea Party a bunch of losers? lmao that's rich

Here's a fun article talking about what some Tea Partiers are trying to do in state legislatures:

Gunning down immigrants — and other democratic experiments - The Washington Post

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s attempt to strip public-sector unions of their power has gained national attention, as have various states’ efforts to imitate Arizona’s immigration crackdown. Arizona, meanwhile, moved on to an attempt to assert its authority to nullify federal law; the last time that was tried, we had the Civil War.

I agree with all the above.

Someone is finally taking steps in the right direction!

The USA will be a much better place, than the road we have been on for years and years.

2 types of tea partiers.

1. The tea partiers that were out protesting in the street during Bush's 1st and 2nd term. They support cuts in defense spending, Medicare, and Social Security. About 2% of tea party supporters fall into this group. True fiscal conservatives.

2. Racist backwards rednecks who are too stupid to spell Constitution much less comprehend it. These are the idiots that carry signs like "Government off my Medicare" and "Obama is Hitler" After Obama is gone, they will disappear. About 98% of the tea party.

It seems that there can never be a political party that represents those of us who want small government and freedom from totalitarian micro-management.

Libertarians reflect my views, which means there can never be a real Libertarian candidate. The powers that be in Washington would never let go of their total power and unlimited spending, so we can never have a real choice that would give us anything other than the corrupt traitors we have leading us today.
