What Does The Tea Party Believe

Lewis Said:

What percentage of TEA Party protesters actually believe Obama was born in Kenya?

We Answered:

2% of Tea-baggers thought taxes for most Americans have gone down under Obama (the correct answer), 46% thought they stayed the same, and 44% thought they went up.

So, given that the Boston Tea Party was a tax-revolt, and they Tea Party protesters fancy themselves in the same vein, it's remarkable that 90% are ignorant about the very topic that defines their movement.

That should tell you all you need to know about them and their intellectual gravitas.

Russell Said:

What does the tea party actually believe in?

99% of the people i know who have anything to do with the tea party have zero idea what they are talking about.

Virginia Said:

Why does the Tea Party believe change is necessary?

We Answered:

Because in 2009 a scary black man took the oath of office.

Between 2001 and 2008 when white men (Republican white men to be preicse) were running things, passing all kinds of laws allowing the government to spy on people, not lowering taxes, and spending like it was going out of style the Tea Party was nowhere to be found. Only 1 element changed in the equation and now the Tea Party comes out of the woodwork claiming that the sky if falling.

Javier Said:

so what policies differentiate Tea Party and Republican party?

We Answered:

The Tea party resembles more the Libertarian Party than the Republican Party . However , the Libertarian Party is too weak to overcome both the Democratic and Republican Parties at the same time . The major concern of the Tea Party seems to be trying to stop left wing oppression .

What policies differentiate MSNBC , ACLU and Public Schools from the Democratic Party ?

Felicia Said:

What does the tea party believe in?

We Answered:

Nearly a demographic image of the country as a whole. (Independents, Democrats, Republicans)
Smaller more efficient government kept within the franchise of the Constitution
Reasonable taxes with less entitlement programs that duplicate services
Honest representation in place of corruption
Self reliance for oneself without government interference
Welfare only for those who are unable to fend for themselves
Helping those who have fallen to get back on their feet
There is no party per se, there is no binding ideology as a group, just a mix of common beliefs in what government should represent to it's citizens.
This is why the Democrats perceive it as a threat to their Socialist anti Constitutional agenda.

Casey Said:

Why does a higher percentage of Republicans and/or Tea Party folks believe Obama is Muslim, or was not?

We Answered:

they have been forwarding each other lie filled chain emails since before Obama was even elected. I have yet to see one that is true and they believe every one of them. The do NOT ever fact check.
