There seem to be several versions of Tea Party - Tea Party Nation? And others? I am wary of the one sided portrayal in the US media, but even the Economist seems skeptical. Not that they're perfect, but they aren't invested the way American media are. It's just ..... I don't see the Tea Party working hard to counter the continued racist and ignorant crap that gets put out there. That shit is really awful, so it can't all be a conspiracy. I want to like the Tea Party. I mean, grass roots and neither Republican nor Democrat. I certainly don't think you're a racist or bad person. But I do think you have yolked yourself to a losing horse.
