Do people still care about the Tea Party? They've proven to be politically extremely ineffective. Their mission has been to drive the Republican party to the right, purge it of it's moderates. They managed to win a bunch of primaries and thus lose a bunch of general elections. For example 10 years ago there were 7 pro-choice Republicans in the Senate and dozens in the house. Today there is 2 in the Senate (Susan Colins and Mark Kirk.) and a very small handful in the house.
I have a feeling this is the death shudder of Social conservatism.

lol, they should make their own news channel.
Would be even better comedy than FOX News.
FOX will probably love this acusation and pose arround with it so they can claim that both sides of the political field accuse them of being biased, while they themselves will say that this proves that they are "fair and balanced".

Quote:The Tea Party is Boycotting Fox News
And going...
where, exactly?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
