Question Adrian, and I mean this as a question to understand your views:
Hypothetically, if I were to poll randomly at a Tea Party event on the following three issues:
1. Same gender marriage
2. Abortion rights
3. Prayer in schools
...what kind of results do you speculate we would get? Would we find a socially liberal group? Mixed results? Conservative? Have any polls on social issues been conducted that you know of?
The reason I suspect that we'd find results that indicate a hard lean toward gay-bashing, anti-abortion fundy theocrats is because of the big name speakers whom I've heard about at these Tea Party rallies:
Michelle Bachmann
Dick Armey
Glenn Beck
Sarah Palin
How do you think they would answer the three questions?
