I do think the Tea Party is destroying the Republican party with their extreme and narrow-minded views.

Hopefully that will mean Democrats will keep winning the Presidency.
Another dope.

Extreme views, like reigning in government, controlling spending, limiting dependents of the government.

Alan Grayson called Linda Robertson, a senior advisor to Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, a “K street *****”.

Just about every other minority group hates the TeaParty too, and rightfully so.
Look who justifies and encourages hating.

Out of the top 10 states who got the MOST back from the government in terms of federal benefits , 8 went for the Romney in the last election.

Guess you forgot that.

Blue state, red face: Guess who benefits more from your taxes?

It isn't really all that far off as far as I'm concerned, honestly. This is the party that embraces birthers and conspiracy theorists who think that there's a race war going on and Obama is trying to turn us in to a Sharia caliphate, after all...

Can you cite some examples?

And what are those "extreme and narrow-minded views?"

So a burning cross has nothing to do with black people? Even you have to admit that's a silly statement.

Change Grayson to Cruz and you would be singing an entirely different tune. It's all about the political war. Race is just a tool in the tool box.

Dems are stupid and crazy, but above all, they're criminals.

Never trust a one of them.

the tea party is similar to the kkk and nazis.

i say that because they do nothing to reign in or disassociate themselves with the radicals in the movement. (confederate flags/muslim rhetoric/anti black anti latino rhetoric).

the party was created by angry white males who didnt want a black man running the country.

they say they are about limited and small government, yet they were nowhere to be seen during bush's reign of terror.

Race - a tool in the tool box. That's all.
