when I clicked on the op link earlier, it said "Tea Party Patriots" at the top of the page. Now I looked again and it doesn't. I thought I must be going . So I googled around and found the same blog post is different kinds of sites--Tea Party, Freep, and some more liberal sites too. So what I first saw about the TP must've been an ad, unless I was temporarily insane. Haha.

The reason I didn't put "Tea Party" in my previous post's subject line is because I agree with the op. My intention was to post a headsup to the original poster.

Anyway, keep fighting the good fight.
