Typical diversion tactic 101 taught to the volunteer liberal trolls. By slurring the opposition they think they can divert from the subject. But, this troll does it so clumsily that it's pathetic.

Friend, no one here has stated that they are Tea Party members. I realize that you feel lonely being the only liberal in a conversation with conservatives, but if you are going to hang with adults, then it would be to your advantage to converse like an adult. Rather than attack someone with what you feel is an implied slur. You can label us with "Tea Party members" all you want, because that is more of a compliment than a slur. However, when you use terms/slurs that your party is more comfortable with, and the practices more related to your side, you only embarrass yourself. Folks on here are less likely to converse with you, other than to hush you as they would a child. You don't have to agree with us, but try a less disruptive strategy if you wish to have us take you or your opposing view seriously.
