Tea Party Platform

[T.A.M.]

The tea party movement as a whole is bunch of Republican discontents who are trying hard to reframe their old Republican rhetoric so that it has at least some internally consistent logic (eg. small non-invasive government & big military & secure borders & bans on gay marriage).

Since such a task is impossible, they have to start dropping some old GOP planks but they cannot agree on which ones should go.

I think it is more then that.

It is a fear driven (and in some cases Racist Driven) branch of GOP extremists which is loud and media attention grabbing, and that is now being used by the soulless and empty members of the GOP elected to office, as they have nothing more to offer or to help them return to power.

But that is my bias left wing opinion.
