Two Tea Parties

[sophia-sadek.livejournal.com]

Now that the Tea Party has taken the plunge to support racism in Arizona, the Party will have the obligatory split over policy. I see a division into two distinct Tea Parties: one of them based on black tea and the other based on green tea. The black Tea Party would continue to support racism (black represents the color of their heart). The green Tea Party will favor a more rational, natural approach to immigration.

What is your opinion of these two parties within the Party? Which other policy divisions can we look forward to?

So they won't split because they are already split? The difference between progressives and teabaggers is that progressives rally for specific issues. The teabaggers cannot even articulate a specific issue let alone rally for it.

The bulk of the Tea-Party has eschewed the tradional "wedge issues" making it hard for the pundits to classify.

They have a unifying issue, they all agree that the massive growth of the National Budget/Debt, is unacceptable and a long term threat to our nation's prosperity/stability. The problem is that none of them can agree on what to do about it, or have any idea of how to fix it.

The samething that happened to the GOP back in the 1912 and 1916 elections is happening again, only this time its the Fiscal Conervatives raising a stink instead of the Populists.
