I guess I am not understanding what the “Tea Party Nation” is. Is this some organized group like the “Tea Party Express?”
I love the Tea Party. I am not such a big fan of the “Tea Party Express.” My attitude may change towards the Tea Party Express over time but I didn’t like what I consider “a fumble at the 1 yard-line” in Nevada.
>>> I guess I am not understanding what the “Tea Party Nation” is
“Tea Party Nation organized the National Tea Party Convention held February 4–6, 2010. Around 600 activists attended the event, and Sarah Palin was featured as the keynote speaker.
The event was criticized for its $549 ticket price, as well as the fact that Palin was apparently paid $100,000 USD for her appearance. Palin has said she will donate the fee to unspecified conservative causes.
Several prominent conservative organizations refused to participate in the event due to its for-profit nature. The Tea Party Patriots advised members not to participate in December 2009. Erick Erickson of the conservative blog RedState.com described the convention as “scammy” on January 11. The American Liberty Alliance (ALA), initially a co-sponsor, withdrew its support on January 13. Later in January, Michele Bachmann and Marsha Blackburn cancelled their plans to speak.”
A subsequent convention was booked for the following July, postponed until October, and ultimately cancelled. On July 18, 2011 the Venetian Casino Resort filed suit for unpaid bills allegedly totaling $642,144.
Tea Party Nation, and specifically its founder, have generated criticism and controversy. For example, Phillips’ stance that voting rights should be restricted to property owners has been criticized as discriminatory and outdated:
