Fox News Poll: What Do You Think Tea Party Movement Is About?

[HELLRAISER]

The poll results so far are funny and unexpected

You Decide both on FreeOnes and on Faux News:

The tea party movement? Sounds like something a third-rate Bond villian would come up with. Trying to wussify the States into having daily tea parties so they can retake the colonies... or something like that...

It's about a bunch of racist NeoCons gathering in one place to try and spread their fascism. We should gather them all up and lynch them while we have the chance.

It's sad to see the Tea Party being co-opted by NeoConfederates

ON that point, I totally agree. The Tea Party movement started by people who want to see our individual freedoms protected and a small, fiscally sound Federal government in line with what the Constitution says... and now, some "right wing" entities are trying to jump on the bandwagon, especially Sarah Palin... if the GOP wants to win seats back in Congress, they should put forth more libertarian candidates and not these judgmental, religious right people who are polarizing.:2 cents:

I personally wouldn't have a problem with the concept but this effort is little more than GOP campaign or at minimum hijacked by the GOP for the sake of politics.

Just a note: tea party chicks are easy. Just nod your head while theyre going off and throw in words like 'socialist government' and 'obamanation' and their pants are off. After you're done you can slap an Obama sticker on their ass and leave the television on msnbc just to mess with them.:thumbsup:

Very well put... it's SUPPOSED to be a more libertarian movement, but the GOP is trying to weasel into it in order to score points.

The only people who take the Tea Party movement seriously are the Tea Party goers themselves. What does that tell you?

 

[Smallville417]

I chose option 4.

 

[calpoon]

I'd say a mix of #1,3 and 4.

Not so much number 2. Bush's bailouts don't really count as democrat socialist agenda.

So... it's not about dressing up as Indians and throwing tea into the harbor? Is it about dressing up as tea and throwing Indians into the harbor? Or is it really about dressing up as a harbor and throwing tea into Indians? If it doesn't deal with one of these, then it shouldn't be called the Tea Party...

 

[~~whimsy~~]

Now let us discuss politics, my friends. I poured every body some tea for TEA PARTY

Wait a second!? Before we begin we have to get that liberal out of here...

*loads shotgun; shoots filthy dog*

Let us commence the tea party!!!!

If they want to have the slightest chance to attract the majority of the voting public, they have to join forces with the increasingly popular Lemonparty to form a tasty, juicy, saucy, raunchy Lemon Tea Party! :nanner:

Small government and fiscal responsibility :hatsoff:

Doesn't a tea party consist of children using imaginary tea with imaginary guests? Sounds about right for this group.

A FixedNoise poll with accurate results. Who knew?

I just clicked on to the Fox News main page and look at how the imagery and headlines of all the News are being framed right now. It is as if the entire nation has just collapsed, again, today.

There's a video on the right about "Can terrorists be rehabilited" with the token shot of a middle east man terrorist. Perhaps it's time to update that image of a terrorist to include a white man from a tea bagger militia?

 

[knowone]

Probably should have an "All of the above" choice. It's basically a group of "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take IT anymore" people with no real agreement on what the "it" is. Think it would have died out by now if not for Fox News hyping it and trying to get them absorbed into the Republican Party.

Shouting.
Pointing.
Something to do during between Nascar races.
Light beer.
The opposite of rap - whatever that is.
Things to put bullets in.
A chance to reminisce about the old days when you could throw on a sheet and cut a couple holes in a pillow case and have a good time.
