I get really tired of people villifying "the Tea Party".

I heard a radio interview today with Martha Roby, Congresswoman from SE Alabama. She defeated Rep Bobby Bright on a platform that you would probably term "Tea Party". I defy you to listen to a tape of that interview and tell me what she said was as illogical, reactionary, and radical as you would have us believe. I'd wager a beverage of your choice that it is the Tea Party that is truly looking out for the country and not themselves. THEY are the ones bucking the status quo in Washington which you say is so badly broken. They have shown the political courage to risk not being re-elected in order to stay true to the mandate that saw them elected.

So Hound, tell me what it is that you think is so wrong about the "Tea Party" and their efforts to right the ship of state. Have you been to a Tea Party rally? Are you aware that any news coverage from the mainstream media will be anti-Tea Party because they are so comfortably in bed with those in power whom yousay are so morally corrupt (my characterization of your positions)?

I just don't understnd your disdain for the only ones willing to put it all on the table to help our country.
