If you attended any TEA parties you would know that one of the biggest issues was a social issue - the unconstitutional health care law that was passed against the will of the majority of the American people. It is also an economic issue, but mandates a great amount of social engineering.

I've been to 5 Tea Parties. Mandated Healthcare is a "FREEDOM issue" --the government doesn't own your body, nor your bank account--if it did, that would be slavery, not freedom.

Virtually every political issue can be turned into "a social issue" if you press it far enough, but that doesn't make it one.

The point is that the Tea Party got broad agreement, both in person and at the ballot box, on the ideas of smaller government, lower taxes and government generally staying out of our personal lives. It repudiated the Liberal agenda -- that's true-- but that does not mean that all who voted for Tea Party candidates wished to exchange one government social agenda for another one that is equally intrusive into our personal lives. To abuse that trust by imposing another set of restrictive rules could squander whatever progress we've made in defeating Obama's tyranny.

>>by imposing another set of restrictive rules

What set of restrictiveness rules? You mean like excluding mentally ill sexual miscreant sociopaths from acquiring military power?

Historical evidence indicates THAT might be a reasonably good idea:
The Pink Swastika is a powerful exposure of pre-World War II Germany and its quest for reviving and imitating a Hellenistic-paganistic idea of homo-eroticism and militarism.”

Those who do not learn from the past will stupidly repeat it.  
 
Is it 1933 yet, again?
