   Because they are, perhaps you should attend a rally instead of protesting them.

   16% of them are racist Democrats according to Pew Research so you are wrong mister. And there are 76 self loathing blacks. And there were dozens of illegal aliens who refused to be interviewed. And 3 Muslims with fake skin covering their beards that like the tax cuts. So there. You LIAR

   The TEA party didn’t lie. Someone lied to you when they told you that.

    Perhaps the Tea Party people are more radical. But they all say the same things .

    Let me get this, so, there is no one of color, so they must be republicans because people of color are only democrats? What?

    So Republicans aren’t Americans in your book? You do realize that the U.S. Military runs about 70% conservative, don’t you? I guess that they’re not Americans in your book either.

    They didn’t lie, they don’t know who they are or where they belong. They just know they are right and everyone else is wrong and THEY WANT THEIR COUNTRY BACK.

    Unfortunately, the Americans they want to take their country back from is the majority and in a democracy, the majority rules.

    Spoken like a true liberal without a clue. You do realize liberals like you make conservatives look like mental giants. Not that we aren’t, but I love it when a liberal makes it so obvious.

    They are not just republicans, as the far left (socialist and facist) stole the Democratic party, many looked at the tea party to express there discontent. There is also a large portion of independants that joined the tea party. The tea party forming, was due to congress not reading bills, because if they took the time, they may have too many calls to handle opposing the bill. e.g. Health care, a bill that does everything to increase cost, and nothing to decrease cost. I takes a moran to say that there it is only white, or you only listen to the polosi, who could tell the truth if her life depended on it. Pres. Kennedy would be more inline with the TeaParty than the Obama administration.
