    The tea party will have to deal with a majority of Americans who don't share the same philosophy . Additionally, now that they have shown us and the world non-democratic behavior and political terrorism in holding all of America hostage to get their way, their influence will be challenged. Look for the other 99% of Americans to rebuke them and their fringe.

    Why does CNN continue to rail against the Tea Party? Can they at least state the facts? According to the Congressional Budget Office, Reid's plan cuts $1.8 trillion over 10 years and Boehner's plan cuts $0.9 trillion over 10 years. The Tea Party wants MORE cuts (not less), that's why they vote against Boehner. If Boehner would wake up and offer more cuts, we would have had this solved a month ago!
