Ron Paul really doesn't have anything to do with the Tea Party. Ron Paul actually argues ideas and is civil. The Tea Party lacks ideas and lacks any civility. So I actually agree with Rush for once.
Of course it is true. The original TEA Party was started in Minnesota in 1974 by a small group of people from the newly formed Libertarian Party. They held their first national protest on April 15, 1977.
Ron Paul has absolutely nothing to do with the TEA Party or its agenda.
It would be fair to say that the group you mention faded ?
Would it fair to say this would be a good list :
The original tea party by the colonist.
The Minn. group.
Ron Paul's tea party in 07.
The present day tea party that does not hold some of Paul's views.
He is correct. Ron Paul is not a teabagger, and tea party members don't care for him much. They see RP as anti-Israel, an American apologist, and a loon.
Past history, as several posters have already pointed out, the Tea Party he was involved with has no connection to the one currently making Americans hate the GOP. So in reality Rush is correct and Paul does not have the support of the new Tea Party.

Yes, I broke the tea party in 4 different groups, and the tea party by Paul supporters did have tea party events. Then the neo's saw a good idea and started their own. If Rush is right why is there a vid of tea party events in 07 ?
He is right that the tea party backed by Fox/Palin/Beck has nothing to do with Paul except hi jacking the idea from his supporters and of course the colonist. It is obvious that the {R} tea party is not behind Paul, first it was Bachman,then Perry, then Cain, and now most likely they are looking at Newt.
ron paul was the godfather of the original tea party. that party got hijacked by the far right neocons(palin, bachmann, etc) and turned them into the far right wing of the republican party.
the original tea partiers are long gone and look down on the current tea party from what ive observed.
Ron Paul seems too logical and intelligent to endorse the TP.
TP in my mind is associated w. palin, the Tucson shootings and fanaticism.
