Even after passing the "historical" Healthcare Reform Bill, for some reason, The Tea Party movement seems to be more popular than Congress itself. Hmmm... I wonder...
A recent Rasmussen poll showed that,
By a 62% to 12% margin, Mainstream Americans say the Tea Party is closer to their views.
52% of U.S. voters believe the average member of the Tea Party movement has a better understanding of the issues facing America today than the average member of Congress.
While only 30% believe that those in Congress have a better understanding of the key issues facing the nation.
When it comes to those issues, 47% think that their own political views are closer to those of the average Tea Party member than to the views of the average member of Congress. On this point, 26% feel closer to Congress.
46% of voters say that the average Tea Party member is more ethical than the average member of Congress. Twenty-seven percent (27%) say that the average member of Congress is more ethical.
For all of the ranting and raving I have been hearing lately about the Tea Partiers, they must to be doing something right!?!? For those of you who don't really understand the mission of the Tea Party movement, they are a protest(s) largely rallying against the big government policies of both major political parties. These are not racist protests or mainly made up of conservatives... they are honest americans who are fighting for their freedom and their rights.
