I mean of course it has nothing to do with his horrible policies, the deficit, or the current economy.

Pretty sure we had two of those three things before Obama came into the White Hizzouse.

As said by the Washington Post, it is the most comprehensive survey of the Tea Party ever taken

Comparative example: "As said by the PETA handbook, only vegetarians go to Heaven."

Circular reasoning is fun!!!

A Romanian Gypsy woman whose 10-year-old daughter just gave birth in Spain says she's delighted to have a new granddaughter and doesn't understand why the birth has shocked anyone — let alone become an international sensation

Derogatory obvious joke comment that some bleeding heart asshat in this thread will no doubt take seriously about Spanish girls giving birth younger and younger goes here.

Not like it really matters, considering as a survey it's pretty flawed. I also think that even if I did blindly believe that every person surveyed answered truthfully (and there is no reason to believe that any person surveyed revealed their true intentions), the fact over 1 in 10 of its members agreed that Obama's race/ethnicity/religious background is an important part of the support the Tea Party receives vindicates my belief that there is a racist element in the Tea Party, rather than disproves it.

Also, I don't just base my belief that this element exists on a few stupid posters or quotes that I've viewed on the Internet, there's a lot more to it than that; I'm hardly ignorant of this group.

Yeah and if I remember correctly alot of the Republican party wasnt really down with Bush, especially in the last few years when he was dealing with a Democratic Congress. Not to mention the whole 2006 protest vote by Conservatives and Republicans because of the Liberal spending by the Republican Congress?

Washington Times is the Conservative News Paper, Washington Post is the more popular, more moderate to Liberal news paper.

Every group is going to have a fringe element, if you magnify it and believe it to be any more than a fringe element than you are acting more than a political hack than anything else. For example the Democratic Party has 30% or more that believes that Bush was involved in some way with 9/11, that is far more than 10% and those are just the people who 'answered truthfully on the survey' which in and of itself is a pathetic argument. Anyway are we to label the Democratic party the party of truthers? Are we going to label liberals as being psychotic truthers? The pathetic logic of taking a fridge element and magnifying it, is just that: Pathetic.

Also, I don't just base my belief that this element exists on a few stupid posters or quotes that I've viewed on the Internet, there's a lot more to it than that; I'm hardly ignorant of this group.

Then provide proof, because so far all you have shown is ignorance.
