    What hidden agendas have you concerned? I havent heard of any that stand out other than the usual left wing rants about bible thumpers and anti abortion crowds, but then again they say that about everybody the isnt a Dem. TEA stands for "Taxed Enough Already" and other than a few crackpots trying to convince folks that the TEA party is going to outlaw abortions, Make it law that you attend church on sundays, or bring back prohibition I cant see anything that is remotely close to the damage that the Dems and Leftys want to do.

    I mean when their agenda goes so far as to put extreme rules on farmers to control dust on farms and handicap businesses from competing with a global market while making sure that unions can bankrupt most companies with wages and benefits packages that are now bringing down State and Local govts and the US Postal Service, that is extreme. A little common sense is called for in these situations and the left has shown no desire to use it in their rush to bring about our downfall in their short term at "driving the bus". Look at what the Socialist, Marxist, what ever "ist" you want to call it, have done to the European countries that many on the left want us to be like. America wasnt founded on those principles, we have always been different and that is why we have been so successful in our short time as a country. Americans are leaders, not followers and our way of thinking is not geared to conforming to what somebody else does. The Chinese invented fireworks but America is the only country to put a man on the moon, the British empire used to run half the world, yet they needed us to help them survive 2 world wars, Americans are the inventors of many technologies that most countries copy. That comes from being different, even our people are different made from a mix of all other countries. To be American you can be Chinese, Korean,English,German, Irish, African, French, Russian.....you name it and it still counts as being an American, different separate but equal and we are all proud of it.

    I am sorry that many of my friends here do not see the Tea Party as extreme, I just have to speak my mind as to how I feel. I also appreciate that I am not being attacked for what I think, hell if I were going after the left I would be attacked and berated. I am evaluating, but to ease minds that even care I will not vote for O.

    Well, in this information age with internet access and 24 hr news cycles, the days of a perfect candidate without some type of baggage is over. It's always been that way of course, it's just that things that used to be able to be hidden, cannot be anymore.

    we'd have to disown you if you were to do that .

    the question comes from those who are truly moderate, like Tx, and Grist, and Dave, as to whether theyd suck up their hatred for Texas and vote for Perry if it meant removing O from office, just like we had to do with that weakling of a candidate in McCain.
