More about the tea party

Gene Healy echoes the message of a previous post on the Tea Party movement in this op-ed in the Washington Examiner. Healy argues that to prove its authenticity as a non-partisan group, the Tea Party movement needs to also back cuts in defense spending. They are currently seen as, and act like, hawks. Says he:
We're spending ourselves into bankruptcy to maintain America's Globocop role...and to pursue the profoundly unconservative project of trying to socially engineer failed societies like Afghanistan into modernity.
"Profoundly unconservative"....lol. Good stuff.
