The Weekly Standard is a conservative, and some say neo-con, magazine. What kind of accuracy are you going to pull out of that?

I don't want to lump all american conservatives together, but as long as the tea party, a mormon, and the Wasilla Killa are driving the bus they're not in good hands.

Tea Party Facts (No source, but I wouldn't put any of these past them)

64% of Tea Party activists think that America’s best years are behind us.

66% think global warming does not exist or will not have a serious impact.

57% think George W. Bush was a good President.

40% think Sarah Palin would also be a good President.

32% think that violent action against the government could be justified.

42% want to decrease legal immigration.

41% believe that gay couples should have no form of legal recognition.

45% believe that abortion laws should be stricter than they already are.

59% like Glenn Beck.
