They aren't changing anything, they are just going to vote the same old people back into office and we will play the same shitty games over and over again.
If they really are sick of the status quot they would form a party and start working on getting some of their own candidates elected in some of the smaller local and state elections.

They have a lot of independants in their ranks, I'm registered as independant. I'm conservative for the most part but hate the two party system. I hate all the spending, I hate entitlement spending when people are unemployed, 10% for over a year now.
This is what the Tea Party is about. If you paid attention, they got involved with a democrat race

I know we don't agree on everything, but we do agree that this is a right in this country, when you see a problem, you can do something about it

I've done some reading on the Tea Party. I even saw that one of the leaders was on the View, it was interesting to say the least. Any group that can get together in such large numbers and tilt the political machine by influence and peaceful protest, I love it.
Not because of my conservative nature, but the grassroots effort to do it right. If it were a liberal movement, someone would be calling the present administration baby killers.

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
