Politicians in Washington are working on pushing legislation that proposes a government takeover of our healthcare system thru Congress by the end of Summer, despite polling that shows over 70% of Americans are satisfied with their existing healthcare plan. We don't want to be a country where politicians make decisions about our healthcare telling us when and how we can receive treatment. Tea Party Patriots is reaching out to Americans to help them protect their patient-doctor relationship. We believe you should be making healthcare decisions for yourself and your family, rather than government bureaucrats. We need to carefully address healthcare reform to give individuals more power instead of putting politicians in control of our healthcare system.

Tea Party Patriots is organizing to fight for your healthcare freedom and against government controlled medicine. On April 15, 2009 over 1.2 million Americans rallied at 'Tea Parties' across the nation to protest out of control spending and big government. It's time to organize again. Tea Party Patriots will soon announce a detailed plan to attract, inform, and mobilize Americans to defeat legislation that proposes a healthcare system run by Washington bureaucrats.

Become a Tea Party Patriot and help us defeat government run healthcare by participating in our Town Hall meeting this Wednesday, June 10th. Learn more about what you can do, share your opinions, and get involved!

IF the next tea party is a replete with misinformation as the last editions, I want no part of it!

These tea parties are magnetic. They strongly attract the lunatic fringe. At the Florence tea party, there was a dude proudly walking around wearing a customized T shirt proclaiming his view that the U.S. government was responsible for 9/11 and the Kennedy assassination.

The whole "tea party" concept is bastardized. Although presumably harking back to the pre-revolutionary Boston Harbor tea party, the modern version has no affinity with the former. Those Boston patriots were protesting "taxation without representation." The latter-day tea party crowd HAS representation. They can vote to elect representatives at local, state and national levels and they do--with most of them probably voting for dingbats like Sarah Palin or throwbacks like Richard Shelby. But they VOTE and they have REPRESENTATION. Let 'em protest whatever they want to, but they should not usurp the "tea party" label for something that has no relationship to the original tea party of historic fame. It simply does not compute.

What are you talking about. I heard the tea party crowd talking about teabagging the White House. You guys made it up and now you are accusing me of making some crude joke. If it is a joke, I don't even get it. It's probably just some crude joke that only people like Larry Craig would know.

Larry Craig? You libs have such little ammunition that you have to keep bringing up the same ole liberal republican. As Conservatives, we have it made because of the overwhelming number of liberal degenerates out there. We wouldn't even have to name the same one twice.
