Tea Party Support

Barry Said:

Does the Tea Party Support 700 Billion a Year For National Defense?

We Answered:

There is no specific platform among the tea partiers. It is a group of varied views from varied individuals. Personally I think we should have a non-interventionist foreign policy. There is no reason for the U.S. to account for half of the world's military spending.

Russell Said:

Why did the Tea Party support a candidate who defaulted on her mortgage and student loans?

We Answered:

Why not? Their bench doesn't exactly include Euclid or James Madison.

Laurie Said:

Is Tea Party support going to fracture the Republicans and keep the Democrats in control of Congress?

We Answered:

First let’s look at a key word in your question “mainstream,” meaning to share the values and beliefs of the majority. If that were true then they would have been selected to go on to challenge or retain the election. You would have to study history in order to find out the answer. The Republican Party was formed out of the ashes of the Wig party due to the Wig party not supporting conservative values. It is important to remember that democrats and Republicans don't decide on how is elected to serve, it is the American voter. If you’re “mainstream” Republicans are losing support of the voters, then they are not mainstream, people have the right to vote for those they feel represent there values and beliefs, it’s not the other way around. As for who wins, victory is meaningless unless you have leader serving in government that share the same beliefs as you, in most cases you are voting for the lesser of two evils.

Shelly Said:

Why does the Tea Party support colonial practices, yet idolize the founding fathers?

We Answered:

because they are being led about like sheep.

Darrell Said:

Are you aware that 32 African American candidates running for Congress are asking for tea party support?

We Answered:

Thanks for the info.
I don't think it matters what color someone is or if there was a party associated w/ this. What I find refreshing is how the 3rd party is the fastest growing.

Gilbert Said:

How can the Tea Party preach about "upholding the Constitution"--when they support Arizona's illegal law?

We Answered:

It's called the double standard and they are masters of it.
