What’s going on with the Tea Party? Remember the good old days when TEA was an acronym for “Taxed Enough Already?” Today, it’s starting to sound more like “Terminate Every Arab!”
It could be argued that the once noble Tea Party has been thrown to the wolves. In its place is a political machine that has hijacked the Tea party name and is using it to stage a NeoCon-Republican comeback.
Last week, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) spoke at a press conference in Washington D.C. to announce the formation of a 44-member Tea party caucus in the House of Representatives. All of the members are mainstream NeoCon Republicans with an allegiance to the state of Israel and an insatiable appetite for war. As a matter of fact, of the 44 members, almost half of them have recently signed on to HR 1553, which endorses Israeli military action against Iran. The resolution states that Israel should be allowed, “to use all means necessary to confront and eliminate nuclear threats posed by the Islamic Republic of Iran, including the use of military force.”
