"is about more than just Article I, Section 8" WOW! Don't you see that this is the EXACT reason why we have a $105 TRILLION structural debt, a $12 TRILLION current debt and a $1.4 TRILLION budget deficit? Article 1 Section 8 as understood by the Founders is THE ONLY solution. I'm not interested in rearranging the chairs on the Titanic through the 2 party system. Remember, Medicare Part D was a genius Republican idea... now that's conservatism.

WOW! You totally didn't even address anything that I said!

Sorry, but there's more to conservatism than complaining about spending and the deficit.

Someone who's pro-choice doesn't get my support. someone who's anti-gun doesn't get my vote. Someone who's pro-gay marriage doesn't get anything from me, either. Someone who's pro-illegal immigration will not be supported by myself. So on and so forth.

If Tea Partiers don't articulate some strong conservative positions on these and other issues, then they don't get my support beyond merely helping to make noise and get the GOP's attention. And if they refuse to because they only care about a subset of economic issues, then they don't deserve to be anything other than just another pressure group.
