The Twitter of The Tea Party

At a personal level I find the Tea party to be fascinating due to the way they voice their bigoted opinions and politics, on average they do not seem to hold any inhabitions or care about relevant social issues, such as racism. For me they uphold the image of the All-American Redneck,

(Tea Party candidate Ken Buck, after being asked why people should vote for him for the Colorado GOP Senate nomination) ''Because I do not wear high heels. She has questioned my manhood, and I think it's fair to respond. I have cowboy boots, they have real bullsh*t on them. And that's Weld County bullsh*t, not Washington, D.C., bullsh*t.'' Buck was referring to an ad run by his opponent, which decried third-party spending on behalf of his campaign and urged Buck to ''be man enough'' to run the ads himself (July 21, 2010)

A website of particular interest that gives a personal insight into that of the Tea Party mind is http://twitter.com/#!/teapartynews their 'tweets' constantly refer to Hitler, and indeed some of their photos posted include the figure referring to the governemnt mirroring the dictator. The image chosen for the site is the American flag, although not particularily inventive it connveys the message of patriotism to the 'simple' minds of the followers and what the political party is fighting for. Which for me what the picture above highlights, found on their site, claiming America committed suicide voting in the current President Obama with the caption, "Let's prove we can pull it back from the brink!" That their political values will save America, as seen in other pictures and Tweets on the page.
The page also deals with negative criticism for example,
'I love how nothing at the teaparty matches. Not the chairs nor the cups.' To which they directly attacked back.
Another important feature of the site is the many images of multi-raced little girls having tea parties, tea parties in general, home made cakes and images of people learning how to sew furthermore of the crowds at rallies and political leaders. All of these images hold the value of an old fashioned 'good, clean, fun' portraying the statement that the tea Party are non corrupt and have the simple hearts of Americans, who wish to uphold that aspect of America.
