Is the tea party movement most reflective of republican movement, libertarian movement, or independent?

The current "movement" is corporate financed and organized. It is not grass-roots by any means interestingly, they love Palin who backed the most socialist program, possibly in the history of the US, in the Alaskan Oil Profits Tax it's a tax and it redistributes wealth based upon collective ownership of State resources. That is the sort of thing Tea Partiers are supposed to hate.

But she makes fun of Democrats so they giggle and wave their signs with little understanding of any true purpose.

A bunch of guys didn't want to be forced to buy government-subsidized tea, so they dumped it in the harbor. They broke a lock to get to the tea, and it was replaced the next day. No one was injured and no other property except the tea was damaged.

It wasn't really about taxes, it was about government control. The "tea party movement" is a bunch of people who don't want to be forced into government-run healthcare or government-mandated redistribution of wealth. The march on Washington last September was a peaceful protest, no property was damaged.

It is also about government control. The two movements do have some similarities.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
