Is FreeRepublic.com a conservative forum, or a Republican forum?
"Tea Party" takes in a lot of territory. I'm in Idaho. I've attended "Tea Parties." If I am not mistaken, the "Tea Party Express" in question appears to be the bunch that went several times cross-country in the bus.
As far as I know, that is the outfit that was advertised on the home page of Free Republic while they were on there little trip.
In any event, it is obvious to me that they did not ask my opinion before they "soiled their diapers."
