A group of Republicans adhering to the idea of tradiotional conservatism is repudiating the old heirarchy and the gross spending of the Bush administration. Can these people truly give the Republic back to the people, or is this just a game to garner votes from the tea party people? I think that this country is on the verge of a rebirth and the only thing that can stop it are those that would hijack the ideals for their own synical purposes. Case in point, as I was writing this I got an email from the local tea party advising about robocalls from the "Tea Party of Louisiana" endorsing a particular candidate. There is no true Tea Party of Louisiana just as there is no true national tea party. Also, the Michigan state Supreme Court recently rejected the appeal of a group seeking to put the tea party on the voting ballot. The group appears to have been formed by Democrats seeking to draw votes away from conservative candidates. We cannot be free and be liars at the same time.
