There is a distinct talent that the right shows on presenting it's spin to a country of uninformed, flag waving, patriotic people that gets them riled up. Yes the right can win the war of the words and have done so spectacularly for a couple of years now. But the Tea Party is not fighting for freedom, they are ignorantly fighting for a continuation of the status quo and a deepening of the American plutocracy.

thanks for reading
You're fairly clueless on this topic.
We spend over a trillion dollars more than we bring in.
No amount of taxation will bring in a trillion dollars a year.
Intelligent people know that. The rest badmouth the tea party.
