EXCERPT FROM: TEA PARTY AND THE RIGHT AlterNet / By CJ Werleman, November 11, 2013. Why the Hate-Filled, Retrograde Politics of the TEA PARTY Are Here to Stay. The TEA PARTY is not a movement, it’s a geographical region: THE OLD SOUTH. After last Tuesday’s creaming in the Virginia governor’s race, and with TEA PARTY negatives creeping toward 75 percent, the political punditry class has divided itself into one of two camps: those celebrating the demise of the TEA PARTY versus those forecasting its inevitable end. Who’s right? Theyre both wrong, because it’s not a movement. It’s a GEOGRAPHICAL REGION, and if history has taught us anything, southern folk are a PUGNACIOUS BUNCH. Despite political feel-good rhetoric, there are two Americas. Not just ideologically, but geographically. That’s what still makes this country unique among other Western democracies. AMERICA IS TWO DISTINCT NATIONS with a distinguishable BORDER that runs the breadth of the country FROM THE MASON-DIXON LINE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN BORDER OF PENNSYLVANIA, FINISHING IN SOME [RELIGIOUS] BAPTIST CHURCH SOMEWHERE IN RURAL TEXAS. SUMMARY: TEA PARTIERS = Foul CONServative Republican White Supremacist Red Necks.
