I agree. Senators, Congressmen, Governors, even Mayors have a responsibility to govern and should be heard in the press. TeaBaggers are just a mob of Pissed off at everything selfish brats. "I WANT MINE, SCREW EVERYONE ELSE!"
The TeaBaggers are a lot like Sarah Palin... Neither is an actual political entirety... not a political party or a politician. Both crave above all else, public attention and focus... And neither are qualified to run much of anything.
Palin & The TeaBaggers are political celebrities... kind of the Paris Hiltons of Politics. Paris Hilton gets loads of press because of her celeb status... and so do Palin and her little band of TeaBaggers. What they say is irrelevant.
The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. John Kenneth Galbraith
A CBS/New York Times poll released Friday shows that support for the tea party has been cut virtually in half since the 2010 elections.
Tea party support peaked at 31 percent around the time of the 2010 elections, but has since declined to just 18 percent. The steepest drop-off in people identifying themselves as members of the tea party came in just the last two months, as tea party Republicans in Congress held hostage an effort to raise the nation's debt limit until Democrats agreed to severe budget cuts.
As a consequence of that debate, the percentage of respondents who said the tea party had too much influence spiked, going from 27 percent in April to 43 percent in August.
Overall opinions of the tea party also sank dramatically during the same period, with 29 percent saying in April that they had an unfavorable view of the tea party, and 40 percent in August.

In a liberal utopia no dissent is allowed, I bet he wishes Tea Party backed representatives like Rand Paul shouldn't be allowed to represent the people who elected him in. This is just more proof the Constitution means nothing to these people, they will give it lip service when it fits their agenda that's it.

well, of course they don't. Once they found out that it might effect their gub'ment check, all bets were off. This country is doomed....You can thank LBJ and great society programs and tricky Dick who took us off the gold standard. The days of reckoning are here, no matter who is in the white house.

All sides should be heard. The main problem we have in our country is that we only hear the same few bought voices. Sure there are plenty of wacko's in the tea party, but that can be said for almost any group of people.

the reps and dems are all trying to discredit the 'real tea partiers'. The 'real tea partiers' are threatening how government does business as usual that has failed over the past decades. If it is true that the tea party has lost some support....the part that they lost was from the folks who will join any movement...just because. So no great loss.
The average Joe, dem and rep alike, carry the same ideology as the tea party ideology. If the tea party ideology takes hold and emerges victorious........I think they will go down in history as changing the fiscal direction of this country to a 'positive'. Will it be painful? YUP! But it has to be done for the future of our kids.
The narcissists' generation of the 60's and 70's should suck it up and step aside for the next generation to have a chance. It's not 'all about me' anymore. It's about creating a future for the next generation.
The dem and rep failed two party system has gotten us to this point in history. It's time for a 'drastic change'.
Oh yeah............and vote RON PAUL!
