Myth 1 Tea Party Cares About Economic Stewardship...These guy would bankrupt the country in a second if they could expand Medicare for themselves..Remember Medicare Part D
They paid into the program, by law. They get back what they paid into.

Myth 2...Tea Party Wants Entitlement Cuts....Thats a joke these guys are buried deep into entitlement. Medicare, SS, Medicaid, VA, and on down the line.
All earned. Unlike you.

Myth 3...Tea Party faces government persecution...Thats a joke... has any Tea Partier been charged with anything.
Hello. IRS scandal anyone?

Myth 4. Tea Party ignores social issues. The Tea Party always claims they could care less about gay marriage, marijuana, abortion, etc...Find a Tea Partier who supports a womans right to abortion..you cant find one. They are a bunch of liars.
Naw. They just don't like murdering babies. Unlike liberals.

Why do I bother? This fool has a hardon for a political group that borders on obscene and lecherous.

Of course they think the Tea Party consists of only retired people. They like that myth, because it fits with their criticism.

From what I understand the so called tea party is not even an organized political party, how can you make any statement about there members when they don't even have members or an organized party.

The Tea Party (Taxed Enough Already) people I know are all working class employed folks who are tired of their contributions to society being squandered on the leeches and their views being belittled and ridiculed. Maybe if the OP moved out of his parents basement, got a job, became a functioning and contributing member of society he'd be a bit fed up with the leeches too. I guess it's easier to believe a false caricature of a certain group than actually consider that they do have legitimate concerns with the direction of this country.

Ah, don't worry about the Tea Party. All they want are tea bags.

The hatred by the left for their fellow citizens with a different political philosophy really amazing.

My 16 year old daughter understands the constitution and knows full well what personal liberty means.

I'm pretty sure if she was voting age she would be classified and labeled Tea Party.

Tea Partiers main concern is when their next check arrives. Why is it almost every single one is on SS, Medicare, Tricare, VA, or some other government check? They are certainly concerned that if someone else gets a benefit theirs might get cut. I will give you that they are looking out for themselves and masking it around the "concern for the country".
