Just an FYI, when you put a link in a thread, and then title the thread....the title of the thread should be found somewhere in the links you provided....

That's why we put links in threads, to back up what we say...not for other people to Google....to see if you are correct

The Tea Party is a leader-less party. Your thread title is incorrect.
Isn't Bachmann a Republican, how about Ron Paul, Rick Perry, Sarah Palin, Herman Cain.

All have R's after their name.

Simply because someone stands up and declares himself to be 'leader' does not make it so.

getting elected to congress is not a leadership position? Members of congress are not leaders?

Is anyone the slightest bit suprised about this? I mean really...did you expect anything different from a Tea Tard?

Let me guess...what's next...a religious right Tea Tard gets caught having sex with a gay male prostitute? Or maybe the classic....another hardcore Ayn Rand nutjob fiscal Tea Tard gets exposed as a deadbeat who filed bankruptcy, or doesn't make his child support payments, or ran a business that was a total failure?

All of this is just par for course with these hypocritical, miserable, right-wing nuts!

The title of this thread includes the phrase 'Tea Party'; therefore I had assumed it had some bearing on the 'Tea Party'.

It appears that you wish to change the OP from 'Tea party' to congress.

So I detect a little sour grapes here? Such a senseless rant. I guess being a liberal you cannot help yourself.
