Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) announced today she has filed paperwork to form the "House Tea Party Caucus".

Bachmann posted a statement to her House Web site along with a copy of a letter initiating the process:

Bachmann to Start House Caucus to Promote the American Peoples' Priorities

Washington, Jul 15 -

Today, U.S. Representative Michele Bachmann filed paperwork to start a House Tea Party Caucus to promote Americans’ call for fiscal responsibility, adherence to the Constitution, and limited government.

"The American people are speaking out loud and clear. They have had enough of the spending, the bureaucracy, and the government knows best mentality running rampant today throughout the halls of Congress. This caucus will espouse the timeless principles of our founding, principles that all Members of Congress have sworn to uphold," Bachmann stated. "The American people are doing their part and making their voices heard and this caucus will prove that there are some here in Washington willing to listen."

A letter was sent earlier today to Representative Robert Brady, Chairman of the Committee on House Administration to register the House Tea Party Caucus as a Congressional Member Organization for the 111th Congress

According to MinnPost.com the caucus would be open to Members without regard to party affiliation.

Way to go Michelle Bachman!!! The only House Repub (& including the Senate Repubs) with actual balls. Maybe the eunuch Repubs will re-grow theirs and join Michelle in the House Tea Party Caucus. I am from MN but am in fatso libturd commie pig Tim Walz(D) MN-1 district. In any case, I am so proud that Michelle Bachman is standing up to the RAT bastard socialist demoRATs & commie pig 0b0z0 usurper-in-crap.

Now THAT would be funny. An organization that has refused membership to everyone who isn’t black (and whose primary requirement is that you are black) is calling an organization that is open to ANYONE who prescribes to its ideals regardless of sex, religion, party affiliation, race, education, or anything else.

There are candidates that I want to donate to, but think they will be pulled into the black caucus if they win...but this is just the thing that is needed! If this caucus is formed, I will donate to some certain candidates...

I don’t give a f*** about what the NAACP thinks about it!

What little resistance there is to the destruction of our country is coming from females.

Is there any testosterone left in DC?

What the hell is going on with American men?!

I’m here, ready to slay dragons, but I HAVE NO POWER! It is so frustrating!

I won’t vote for these people in November, or EVER, if they don’t fight!

GD cowards, the lot!

I absolutely love this amazing Patriot!

GOP Leadership would like to see her buried, because she demonstrates their total, either incompetence (not likely IMHO), or hidden NWO enabling agenda (most likely IMHO). Either way she shines light upon their vast, if not willful, lack of leadership in any meaningful manner.

The Congressional Black Caucus will call it racist in 3-2-1... -PJ

Think she should have called it the "White Tea Party" - after all hasn't the other side in this war already called it that?
