This was not directed at me but, I thought it a good example to show the misinformation being spread to keep their members from knowing the truth. This was from politablog on FaceBook.
Ha! I didn't even see the posts on here too! oh man... Don't listen to this John Martin guy, he is just another ultra-conservative, right-wing extremist. If you actually want Reason and civility in public affairs; A government accountable to the People; Liberty & Justice for All. Then join the Coffee Party, not this Tea Party crap that spews hate, lies and injustice.They are anti-science and look what they are doing in texas.
They want to remove the seperation of church and state, they want to get rid of Thomas Jefferson's ideas! They also want to make students learn and memorize Jefferson Davis' inaugural address right next to Lincoln's! It is shameful! Take action and learn! Don't try to change history and don't let the right-wing extremists change the US! They are just like the Fascists under Mussolini.

You are being gravely misinformed about the Tea Party. I think you might be misinformed about the failed Coffee Party too. The Coffee Party was set up to counter the beliefs of the tea Party, has in more government, more redistribution of wealth. Hate, lies, and injustice? You will have to be more specific. Anti-Science? If you refer to the believing the religion of Global Warming has a Science, you would be right. After all with Global Warming you have to believe considering there is hardly enough evidence to blame man for it. If man were being tried for crimes of Global Warming, I would say that there is plenty of reasonable doubt to dismiss the charges. It would be an injustice to make man pay for a theory.
Again, in Texas you might be exaggerating a little. Please be more specific. Besides the fact there is no such thing has separation of church and state. All that there is related to that topic is an idea that our founders did not want a state sponsored religion. They were very much all about freedom of religion, a main reason for independence was so men can freely associate with their religion.
Thomas Jefferson's ideas? Have you read any of his quotes. They are all about not using government for social engineering mostly and restraining government growth for the good of freedom.
Fascist? Once more, you need to take a look at the words. The Tea Party movement ideas of less government and more freedom is hardly authoritarian. Now, telling people how they should live their lives and making it law, that fits the definition of fascism and is more towards the liberal activity in government we have today.

Arizona on The Horizon
Some people say that Arizona’s immigration law will ruin the economy. Although I am not sure how my friend Juan came to that conclusion. I would assume only that he may be misinformed on purpose and the nature of Arizona’s new law.
The new immigration law will help legal immigrants in Arizona and if similar bills are past many other immigrants in other states will be served better with stricter enforcement on the crime of illegal immigration. Much like enforcing laws against stealing helps lower the cost for people who choose to pay for their goods, immigration enforcement will lower the cost in waiting and other hardships to legal immigrants enter this country. It will also help in lessening the discrimination that come with being a immigrant when people are more secure in knowing the odds are higher that an immigrant next to them was here by legal means and contributing to society.
So, for the sake of all of our immigrants that come into this country legally, I hope it does work. The immigration process is there for a reason. There is a line of people who want to come to this country for the best opportunities on this Earth, in order to protect our citizens from disease and criminal elements we have to screen people and get to know them before we just let anyone in. That is all Arizona is doing. Read the law! Yes, they will be discriminating against people who are not here legally.
This Arizona law only requires that you follow the immigration laws of this country. Mexico has far more severe consequences for illegally migrating into Mexico. I welcome anyone from anywhere that wants to come to the USA through the front door.

Seperation of Church and State or Congress Shall Make No Law?
Trying to find the seperation of church and state in the 1st amendment. Only thing I can find so far is, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." How is that a concept for seperation? All it says has to do with laws nothing more. Has long as laws are not made in support of religion or prohibiting it. Ten Commandments on State property is NOT congressional law, Christmas tree on city property is NOT congressional law. I am going to vote inside a church for crying out loud.
Creationism can be taught in schools because there is no law passed by congress for school teachings for or against the teaching of it, making that decision up to the States(10th Amendment). I'm sorry I had not called anyone stupid, I just thought someone might actually take aim at the issue intead of name calling. I am more comfortable voting for a candidate who wants to limit government and by proxy stop attacks on our freedoms versus a candidate that is for bigger government and by proxy voting for people telling me how I should live my life. Remember folks, all of us have more freedoms under smaller government.
