tea party

What:

"Or stated differently, the Tea Party is the poltergeist of American politics. It is angry and destructive. The Tea Party poltergeist was summoned up by a crisis of faith, a decline in America's standing in the world, and a system shock brought about by the combination of the Great Recession, failed misadventures in Iraq and Afghanistan, and poor political leadership at home. Some have suggested that American politics is sick, and that it is suffering from an autoimmune disease: the Republican Party's abandonment of normal politics is a symptom of this illness. "

What: "To the Republican establishment, tea party people are field hands. Their labors are to be recognized and rewarded, but they are to stay off the porch and not presume to sit at the master's table."

What: "Comparing the Tea Party to Occupy Wall Street is like comparing Laura Bush to Rosanne Barr. One is an eloquent lady clean and chaste and the other a disgusting slob with a foul mouth. A very poor comparison by any streatch of the imagination!"
