[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From the Tea Party website, these are the core beliefs of the TP:
[b]1. Illegal aliens are here illegally.[/b]
2. Pro-domestic employment is indispensable.[b]
3. A strong military is essential.[/b]
[b]4. Special interests must be eliminated.[/b]
[b]5. Gun ownership is sacred.[/b]
6. Government must be downsized.
7. The national budget must be balanced.
8. Deficit spending must end.
9. Bailout and stimulus plans are illegal.
10. Reducing personal income taxes is a must.
11. Reducing business income taxes is mandatory.
[b]12. Political offices must be available to average citizens.[/b]
[b]13. Intrusive government must be stopped.[/b]
[b]14. English as our core language is required.[/b]
[b]15. Traditional family values are encouraged.[/b]
So, with which ones do you have a problem?  I have to say, these are pretty reasonable to me. [/quote]  This list demonstrates that the oft-repeated platitude of the PP ("The Tea Party is a good thing, but the liberals have painted them with a broad brush and made their issues social--when the Tea Party issues are fiscal."   ) is just not true.  More than half of the list is not "fiscal" (and 15 wraps in a whole host of separate issues that should be counted individually).  Unless you blame the "liberal media" for what is on a TP organization's own website?  Plus, I'm gonna need to see some support for # 6.  What horseshit.  [/quote]
