If the tea party were a state it would be Texas and Austin would be forced out.
You know nothing jon knee.
You appear to have internalized the meme that Tea Party is a synonym for Country Club Republican. This is probably not accurate.
What does "Country Club Republican" mean to you? To me it means one who goes against their core values for the sake of a rich special interest at the expense of the masses. Here[0] every single House Tea Party member votes to protect oil subsidies despite this contradicting their core beliefs[1] in: "Protecting Free Markets", "Eliminating Excessive Taxes" and "Eliminating the Deficit Spending". In this case using taxes and/or debt to fund a non-free market.
