Reply #40: Lee is very similar to Ron and Rand Paul

The true tea party has some libertarian leanings. Many are so far to the right and so anti-government (like Lee) they don't trust the government with anything like this and think they'll put them in camps. :) Lee is also very much against the Patriot Act. All of the extreme right opposes this bill and the Patriot Act.

The real question is to know what's the extreme right. To put it bluntly, none of the pukes running for president are extreme right. Newt Gingrich? Neo-con not particularly liked by Tea Baggers. Bachman goes the furthest without going over that edge. Palin is just there. Pat Buchanan is the definition.

Hatch is very unpopular with the Tea Party in Utah. If someone were to challenge him, he would likely lose the primary. As for McConnell, he's despised by Tea Baggers, he's a neo-con to the extreme.

Now, with all that said, that doesn't make Tea Baggers wrong on this issue. To me, the globalist neo-cons are the real problem.
