Government
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think people are confused about what the Tea Party is. I mean, they were a broad cross-section of Americans who came together concerned about our debt and our spending. And they're interested in constitutional, limited government. And so they're not one group of people. They're thousands of small groups all over the country.

Look

From a policy standpoint, the Judeo-Christian principles are important.

Party

Nov 07, 2020

The Tea Party doesn't like politicians.

Food
|
Nov 07, 2020

Well, we lost a lot of our independence already. We are dependent on China for credit. We are dependent on Middle Eastern countries for energy supplies. And many Americans are dependent on the government for their income, health care, education of their children, food stamps.

Plants
|
Nov 07, 2020

So, the point I'm making is, we are not going to cut spending in Washington if we think it's the job of every congressman and senator is to pave local parking lots and build local sewer plants. These parochial interests are getting in the way of the national interests.

Go

Anyone who says the Republicans have been irresponsible aren't looking at the facts.

People

Myself

Better

Ideas

Good
|
Nov 07, 2020

The message is pretty clear: Americans are sick and tired of the doubletalk coming out of Washington, of us going home and saying we're conservative and then coming up here and voting for 10,000 earmarks.
