With the above stated I decided to do a little reading about the Tea Party and learn something for myself instead of reacting to it and running the risk of turning this thread into a political discussion. What I found IMHO was interesting unbiased reading and it did provide information about opposing views on the movement. I feel that fair minded people might also like to read what I found before making any judgements pro or con of their own. So without any opinions given on my part, here's the link to what I've read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tea_Party_movement
