After Rand Paul opened his big mouth and got everybody on his case, makes me think that there is no Tea Party. What we see is a group of Americans feeling energized by people like Rand's father, Ron.
Fluff, and non-sense. These are not thinkers, they are good Trojan Horses for "smart" operators like those whose initials are here: B.M., F.F., and A.H.
Please Americans do not fall for these non-thinking demagogues. Read a little History and you will see where this leads.
From this Sunday column of Frank Rich:
"The Tea Party is a right-wing populist movement with a specific ideology. It resides in the aging white base of the Republican Party and wants to purge that party of leaders who veer from its dogma. But divisive as the Tea Party may be within the G.O.P., it’s hardly good news for President Obama and the Democrats either."
