So let me get this straight.

The Tea Party shot meteorically in support because it stands for reducing the spending of a bloated, spoon-in-every-pot government.

And now we are supposed to appeal to those who are in the minority and whose financial and social support is through massive government spending and its social regulations?

No thanks.

The Tea Party is the party of the moral majority. We don’t have to make social issues our priority. Just decimating the size of government will go a long way toward saving this republic.

But we sure as hell don’t have to play footsie with those groups who most abhor and ridicule the Tea Party. You know, those groups who refer to us as tea baggers.

TEA PARTY means ‘Taxed Enough Already”. It seeks to reduce government in our every day lives.

Now if you want to campaign on anti-abortion or anti-homosexual agenda, you are not going to find it in the Tea Party.

That’s the beauty of the Tea Party, its solely focused on shrinking government.
