Ian Fletcher has been talking to a range of people involved in the Tea Party movements. He got a range of conflicting points of view - which is what you'd expect, because its not a monolithic entity.

What's your take on this?

Puppets or Rebels? Free Trade and the Tea Party

He gets conflicting answers simply because free Trade is not as it appears, there is no such animal.
China manipulates their currency and keeps it low, therefore making it impossible to base trade against the dollar.
If he were to simply ask if you are for Free Trade, then you would get a simple answer, Yes!
I have a feeling he doesn't ask a simple question...

Solar, I would agree with you. Generally speaking, I think The Tea Party members would agree with Free Trade.

Tea Party is a mix yet, there are some RINO in there learing.  They need to get off the Fence Posts.
