The Tea Party gets lots of notice on Fox news, which is what you seem to watch, but people have basically realized that it is just a new brand name for neocon ever since it was taken over by big money and the Paul people were expelled from the core of the Tea Party.

Tea Partiers support Herman Cain by a margin of 72-2 and Herman Cain is pretty much W minus the old money petigree. Cain wants expansive involvement in the middle east, he wants to further cut taxes on the wealthy, destroy environmental regulations, and double down on government support for wall street and bank bailouts. Once more like GWB anyone who has valid crticism of him he calls whiny.

This Tea Party is basically Neo-Cons who realized that Neoconservative was a dirty word.
I am sorry but surely you know that there will be no state elections in 2010 ever again. That was about a year ago so the next elections for states will be in 2012, if we have elections then and I will tell you to hide and watch what happens next spring when the black flash groups start to perform again and the people like the OWS have become start to perform again. Violence will be the result and that will lead to what Obama wants so bad.

Once more like GWB anyone who has valid crticism of him he calls whiny. If he is elected it is only a matter of time before the Tea Party language about the tree of liberty and being skeptical of government is replaced with such familiar Bush era slogans as "love it, or leave it" and "criticizing the president is unpatriotic."

This Tea Party is basically Neo-Cons who realized that Neoconservative was a dirty word.
I'm willing to bet you have no clue at all what a neoconservative even is.

Actually, one of the founders of the tea party just came out this week endorsing OWS--he said they have exactly the same type of concerns that the tea party did initially, before they were taken over by the corporate guys and used as a tool to win elections for them.

A neoconservative is someone associated with the neoconservative movement. It is a movement on the American right that developed with the view that the US should play an aggressive role in fighting communism, and even after the fall of communism the movement still embraces the idea that the US should play an active role in spreading democracy and capitalism around the world. They also accept a limited federal government role in promoting the public good, e.g. civil rights legislation and at the time support for bank bailouts.

They differ from paleo conservatives who favor military isolationism and a more pure free market role where the federal government is concerned. They believe role of the federal government is restricted to self defense and states rather then the federal government should be the ones to promote the public good.

With the exception of Ron Paul, Rick Perry and possibly Buddy Roemer all of the Republicans running lean towards the neoconservative slant as opposed to the paleoconservative slant with the biggest neo-cons being Romney, Huntsman and Cain.

The fact is many on the right try to lump liberalism and Neoconservatism togeather, but Liberalism believes the federal government should take a larger role in promoting the public good, and like paleocons liberals believe in a more isolationist foreign policy of comity and friendship to all ally, or enemy to none.

No. Neoconservatives were former liberals (left because commusit took over the liberal movement) now on the conservative movement. See Jean Kirkpatrick as one example.

No they were not liberals, they were Democrats, but they were very anti-left and they quit the Democratic party because of the rise of the left. Neo Conservatives were people like Scoop Jackson.

Do you even know what a Liberal is, or has your mind be rotted by rightwing propaganda.
