I never called the Tea Party a terrorist organization, GfS. I think the Tea Party is an aggregate of mixed nuts with the collective intelligence of a radish, but not a terrorist organization. Among other things, it's hard to think of it as an organization at all.

But anyone who takes a firearm to a rally or political meeting and brandishes it is thug and a hooligan, no matter how "patriotic" they think they are. Simple as that.
