I wish people would stop playing into the TEAT Party hands...
There is no "initially" about it. It is still a loose association of working citizens of all parties promoting and supporting an idea.
The instant that it becomes a clone of the Dims or the RINOs, the Alinskis and "progressives," the Obamas and the SOROS machine have won.
The value of the TEA party philosophy, and its strength, is that there is no "leadership," or "spokesmen" that speaks for us.
The philosophy is an idea, and so long as it remains an idea, it is invulnerable.
TEA and conservativism are first cousins and it is driving the TEAT Party further into insanity.
Let's keep it that way.
I know. If you read all that I posted you will see that is clear. I put emphasis on the word “party” because that is what the Dims added and began calling the TEA protesters. Unfortunately, many of the movement have used the word “party” themselves. The misunderstanding is exactly what the Democrats want.
