The problem, and UB acknowledges this, is that there was an old Tea Party and a current Tea Party. The old one was wise and Libertarian. The current Tea Party is hillbilly and racist.

The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
