I asked the question, What is the TP' stand on the defense budget?.
I am looking for answers.

At the above, I found disaproval of Ron Paul being the only mention of him, support for waterboarding, basicaly generic GOP, no stance on the defense budget could be found.

At the light and airy site mentioned above, their is ABSOLUTELY NO MENTION OF THE DEFENSE BUDGET.
From Wikipedia,
[SUP][17][/SUP] The Tea Party movement is not a national political party; polls show that most Tea Partiers consider themselves to be Republicans,[SUP][18][/SUP][SUP][19][/SUP] and the movement's supporters have tended to endorse Republican candidates.[SUP][20][/SUP] Commentators including Gallup editor-in-chief Frank Newport have suggested that the movement is not a new political group, but simply a rebranding of traditional Republican candidates and policies

From the above, NOTHING ABOUT THE DEFENSE BUDGET.
Tea Party Movement :
fROM THE ABOVE;
Membership and demographics
Several polls have been conducted on the demographics of the movement. Though the various polls sometimes turn up slightly different results, they tend to show that Tea Party supporters are mainly white and slightly more likely to be male, married, older than 45, more conservative than the general population, and likely to be more wealthy and have more education.
One Gallup poll found that other than gender, income and politics, self-described Tea Party members were demographically similar to the population as a whole.
When surveying supporters or participants of the Tea Party movement, polls have shown that they are to a very great extent more likely to be registered Republican, have a favorable opinion of the Republican Party and an unfavorable opinion of the Democratic Party. The Bloomberg National Poll of adults 18 and over showed that 40% of Tea Party supporters are 55 or older, compared with 32% of all poll respondents; 79% are white, 61% are men and 44% identify as "born-again" Christians, compared with 75%, 48.5%, and 34% for the general population, respectively.
Clearly idicating nothing more than a slightly indignant arm of the GOP.
List of elected members; note, all are republicans

I have done earnest research, I am far from convinced that a goal of the TP is to cut the defense budget.

Anybody read what Bloomberg said about the NYC cops?
That they are his "personal army"...

All you've got is your ridiculous, demeaning photos...proving one more time for everyone to see that vulgarity and personal insults are the last refuge of the weak minded.

You don't care about insults being used so cut the lying crap. You care that they are used on your and your pals in retribution for their own insults. You want it stopped then speak to you pal, Dune. Phoney little twit.

You don't care about anyone violating the constitution because if you cared then you would be outraged over real violations in this current administration and their czars. It's phoney outrage on your part. Not getting your own way on your agenda doesn't equate to "violating the constitution. This President just bombed a nation that was no direct threat without any congressional approval and you want to preach to us about "violating the constitution"? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOOLLOLLOL

Thaaaaaat's right...it's always someone else's fault with you, isn't it?
That was the basic gist of your whining last time you got banned..."but, but, but I wouldn't do it if they just left me alone..."
You seem to be able to draw from a rather large stash of Tranny porn when posting your derogatory pix...which speaks VOLUMES about you as a person.
