(46,328 posts)They don't list the politicians that aren't "officially" belonging to the Tea Party but who kiss up to the Tea Party.
My congressman Tom Petri has made several speeches to Teabagger groups, and kisses up to them.

(11,461 posts)shocked to find out that eleven members of the Tea party are from Texas.
Eleven members from TEXAS? It is fair to say that Texas has become the
state for deep seeded bigots. This has got to change real fast.
Pathetic.

(7,887 posts)I say we see what states allow Senator and/or House Legislature RECALLS (kinda like impeachment, but more because they are simply DEFECTIVE).
IN Minnesota there was some talk of RECALLING Michelle Bachmann, but she's said she won't run again. I don't think she can afford to buy another election anyway.

(1 post)I went to the official site, but there is no official role of its membership. CNN and Wikipedia re great for those of us who give the TP no credit, but not very credible for convincing actual Tea Partiers of who they are supporting. Thank you in advance.
