>> the Tea Party is Christian Right politics with a thin Fiscal Conservative veneer
And you find this surprising? :P The Tea Party is simply the 1994 Religious Right/Republican "revolution" dressed up in new clothes and slightly more racist.
Someone said in a previous post that, to certain people, it's only "big government" if it negatively affects rich, old, white people. I would add "conservative Christian" to that list, and change "affect" to "affect or simply piss off."
