I just went back and reread the thing to see how it would hit me after a day has passed.

The woman is shallow in her thinking and her attempt to attack Sarah Palin through a 'warning' to the public about the tea party agenda.

There is no better description for these people than the one coined by Rush Limbaugh - "Drive by Media"

They pull up take their random shots and speed away hoping to have done some damage, not caring where, how or to whom. In KP's hasty drive by attack she didn't even realize that the bill passed in the house. But, we all know that her real fear is of the public being successful in permanently controlling congressional spending with a balanced budget amendment. The idea of government serving people is abhorrent to liberals.

Just remember, three years ago Parker wrote a column where she stated that Hillary was “well qualified” to be president. That should disqualify Parker forever being taken seriously about anything.

I'll probably catch heck here for the suggestion but....might be time to change the name. Dissolve the Tea Party and announce an all new party. The press would be left scrambling. I would like to see Palin announce a presidential run and a new party at the same time, Sept 1.

Slurs and innuendo (and some extremists) hurt the Reform Party in Canada in much the same way. Preston Manning, Stephen Harper and many others on the right fought hard to grow their numbers and keep their opponents off balance.

Several different party names were used as new alliances were formed, keeping the really nasty smears somewhat irrelevant to the issues.

Preston Manning is a very smart man. Tea Party members might benefit from some of his experience and teaching.

It’s become obvious that the plan for the L/R Statist are all wanting to push the TP and Palin either out or into a 3rd party run. What we have is a one party Government aka Tyranny. What now?
