Linguistics: Should we refer, not to Tea Party but to the "Stalinist Wing of the Republican Party"?

[VanillaRhapsody]

38. The beauty of it is that those that ARE supportive of those positions...will gladly accept that

They would take that moniker and wear it with pride....not realizing that in doing so...they have just called themselves a proven enemy of the U.S. Government!

They proudly call themselves all sorts of names "Red Neck" as an example...The truly rabid members of the Tea Party would gladly identify as Confederates. Consider the backdrop of the fact they didn't stop even when it became common knowledge that the very term they chose to define themselves was the name of a sex act they would all find objectionable... (Teabagger). They are so blatant with their racism now....I think they wouldn't bat an eye to be called a Confederate.

and I also think this is an excellent way to finally break them from the Republican Party. Moderate Republicans would shy away from that name...the Teabaggers would not....but while the Teaparty consider themselves part of the Republican Establishment....the Republican Establishment would not be so welcoming of a group of people gladly calling themselves that.

And Neo-Confederates works too....either would be fine.
