@coldjoint,
You do realize, don't you, coldjoint, that the Tea Party's major organizing guru has been Saul Alinsky (through his writing, of course, since he's dead)? Guess that makes them all Commie, pinko, liberal, progressives, doesn't it?
Quote: Former Republican House Majority Leader Dick Armey also gives copies of Alinsky's book Rules for Radicals to Tea Party leaders
Just one example
They follow his rules with great gusto. They describe him as "amazingly effective".
Bunch of lousy hippie radicals, the Tea Party.
