He doesn’t even know it’s the TEA party. He thinks it’s the Tea Party.

Since the Left have no ideas of their own all they can do is cast innuendos at those they can’t debate in the arena of ideas.

In order to conceal this criminal act from the authorities they dressed themselves up as Mohawk Indians hoping to transfer the blame to the Indian people.

Someone is rather ignorant. At that time, the colonies were often represented by imagery of native indians.

Cartoon-The able doctor or America swallowing the bitter draught

Revolutionary War-era political cartoon published in the London Magazine, entitled "The able doctor; or America swallowing the bitter draught." Depicts Lord North, with the "Boston Port Bill" extending from a pocket, forcing tea (the Intolerable Acts) down the throat of a partially draped Native female figure representing "America," whose arms are restrained by Lord Mansfield, while Lord Sandwich, a notorious womanizer, restrains her feet and peeks up her skirt. Britannia, standing behind "America", turns away and shields her face with her left hand. Image published: 1774.

Not a clue to the fact that it’s a MOVEMENT, not a PARTY? No idea who Rick Santelli is, or what he said on the exchange floor?

You just can’t fix stupid....

And D-day was in large part an act of deception. It was pathetic and evil in its conception. And we should give todays’ adherents of Adolf Hitler another chance to reconstitute the Nazi party and let them have back all of Europe.

It’s only fair, for the children.

The writer seems to miss the fact that there is really no such thing as ‘The Tea Party’, so the stated circumstances behind its ‘founding’ are equally imaginary.

That stated, I’m a fervent supporter of Tea Party values and principles as we know them, and not as mischaracterized and smeared by libs, progressives, Dems and dimwits who believe every pejorative hurled by the alphabet networks and other ‘mainstream’ media outlets.

and patterned themselves after a bunch of so-called Boston Patriots who decided to rebel over a tax on tea

So called patriots.

I guess the author must be quoting Howard Zinn or some other Commie scholar.

So applying that reasoning, every institution named after a signer of the Declaration of Independence is promoting treason.

They dressed up as Indians because they wanted King George to know they were americans not euro weenies.

Do progressives really think Liz Warren successfully passes off as an Indian ? In a costume she would look hysterical, as all those former Europeans throwing the Tea overboard looked.
