"A joint New York Times and CBS poll found in the spring of 2010 that tea
party movement members tend to be Republican, white, male, married and
older than 45. Still, the tea party movement may be more diverse than
people think. “I have traveled the state and the country, meeting tea
party members of all creeds, colors, sexualities and ages. The first
major tea party event in Seattle, Oregon, was arranged by Keli Carender
who was in her 20s, wears sports tattoos and looks like a goth chick. At
a major event in St. Louis, I was chatting to several young black tea
partiers backstage,” Dodge said.

Beyond stereotypes, the reality is that the TeaParty is increasingly inclusive of diversity from this article that is not afraid to tell both sides...

Seattle Oregon and what the fuck is a "sports tattoo" and how does an individual "wear" one? Whoever made these statements really goes a long way to dispel the notion that all tea baggers are country fried yokels with a one toothed smile who consider the horseless carriage the best invention since the war of northern aggression.

If I remember correctly. There was one attack.. by a violent black Tea Partier.. giving a beat down to a bunch of SEIU members ............
No ! Belay that one ........I have it wrong .......it was a group of SEIU union members attacking a black conservative Tea Party member ....
That's so clever how you said the opposite of what happened before coming out with the real story... A witty one you are. Really built up the suspense with that one!

I guess the Huffpo and the move on emailer list neglected to pass on the death threat story that would have been 24/7 major news on most networks if it had been some TP guy, even more than japan and libya. certainly the story played on fox and some websites frequented by righties but anyone who understands the agendas of all the media(which is ratings for advertisement dollars on one hand and projection of their ideology on the other). well death threats are not news if you are on the same ideological side as those issuing the threats even though you disagree with threats personally. better just to move on, nothing to see here. try the grape koolaid people, its just to die for.

It's a movement of conservative citizens that are sick and tired of watching their tax money and then some being given away to anyone that can put their hand out.
It stands for smaller government and responsible spending, not $trillion deficits. This goes for D's & R's, knock off the spending or you will suffer the election consequences in 2012.
