Ideologues Attack Tea Parties

Some tea party bigwigs took another step towards integrating with the Republican party. They've got a new logo that expresses their support of the constitution of the USA. Well, who doesn't back the constitution? Every politician of any position on the liberal-conservative spectrum pays lip-service in support of the constitution. They just want to interpret it in ways that buttress their own agendas. Please tell me, self-annoited tea party aristocracy, shall we blindly endorse the constitution as defined by the courts? Or could there be some gnostic way to interpret what the founding fathers really meant?

Here's an idea - let's not define a tea party method of reading the constitution. Those viewpoints have little to do with the real problems facing us. Fire the leaders who spout worn-out republican platitudes. Tea parties will work best when we are politically independent. It is an American position to recognize that our country is overtaxed. We will only succeed in changing things when we join with reasonable people of both major political parties.
