Why Doesn’t The Tea Party Repeal The 21 Drinking Age For Everyone?


It’s no secret that the Tea party claims to follow the constitution like a 2nd bible. That being said, why don’t Tea Party Republicans seriously consider repealing the 21 drinking age for everyone (not just members of the military). That would be very consistent with their ideology, since the federal government and the supreme court B S-ed their way around the constitution when the law was passed. Plus, remember that the Tea Party marketed itself as an organization that defends freedom. If they truly defend freedom, then they should be against the government telling legal adults what types of beverages they can have and at what age. What do you say?

What Do You Think Of The “tea Party” And “progressives” Agreeing On Getting Rid Of The Patriot Act?


This is fascinating to me.
I also read a poll on Politico today (obviously not scientific) where 56% of respondents supported repealing the Patriot Act by not reauthorizing it.http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Elections/T…
Many liberals tag the tea party movement as nativist, potentially racist, and out of step with progressive ideals. But some found themselves giving a nod of approval to tea-party-affiliated members of Congress who voted Tuesday to nix parts of the Patriot Act on grounds that they let the government intrude too much on individual privacy in the name of national security.
“House blocks renewal of Patriot Act. Some of these tea party guys aren’t insane after all,” tweeted Armon Dadgar, a resident of Kirkland, Wash.
Rep. Ron Paul of Texas and newcomer Rep. Raúl Labrador of Idaho were among eight in the Tea Party Caucus to vote against extending certain surveillance measures contained in the Patriot Act, joining with 18 other Republicans and most House Democrats to prevent their reauthorization – at least for now. Liberal Democratic lawmakers, in particular, have long derided parts of the Patriot Act as sacrificing civil liberties.

Why Doesn’t The Tea Party Just Say We Are Apart Of The Republican Party?


They always say that they are “America’s voice” which they sort of are if you are a Republican. They say that they are not affiliated with any party but all of their candidates are Republican. It’s okay to be apart of the Republican party I don’t understand why they just won’t claim it. I’m pretty sure there were no Tea Party Democrats elected because quite frankly there are no Tea Party Democrats or Independents.

What’s Up With The “tea Party”?


Just my opinion but from what I saw on CNN flipping through the channels, the (2) people they interviewed seemed like they we’re from crazy town. I think they we’re both from out east somewhere, but aparently this woman who won a primary can’t manage her bills, and seems to be a dishonest person in general… And the other guy interviewed seems to be somewhat racist and oddly enough is really bad at hiding it!
I guess my question is… No matter what your beliefs are, how could any sane person vote for someone like this?? Would you really want someone like this representing you?? That’s scary in itself, in my opinion. I’m not affiliated with any political party, just fyi. Personally, even if I don’t agree with a politician I still want them to be educated, somewhat rational, and can at least hold an intelligent conversation beyond “my taxes are too high” Who are these people that vote for someone like this?? I don’t know anyone like that.

Are Beck & Palin Taking The Wrong Approach To Winning Converts Over To The Tea Party Movement*?


To me the only thing holding the loosely affiliated tea party patriots together is their desire for spending cuts and lower taxation.
Lets face it the tea party is a collection of dissatisfied GOPers fed up with broken promises and compromise, libertarians, younger conservatives who are mostly concerned with the economy and the fiscal side of things, a few independents sick of the crap, and also a few opportunists.
How will going back in the direction of the religious right not split the tea party/conservative vote???
*This question does not reflect on my personal views as much as it does the reality of the voting public in my opinion.
