It seems that Columbus Dispatch letters-to-the-editor are getting increasingly more ridiculous. I didn't even bother to read this following article, for the headline told me all I needed to know, as it read: "Only socialists think Tea Party is radical."
Obviously... In a new Pew poll, it found that among moderate and liberal Republicans, the Tea Party has an approval rating of only 27%. Among people of every political stripe, they're seen favorably by just 30% of them and unfavorably by 49%. Ted Cruz's approval rating among mainstream Republicans is only at 25%.
In an NBC/Wall Street Journal poll, it showed that only 21% of people approve of the Tea Party, while 47% disapprove. Not only that, but just 14% see Tea Party darling Ted Cruz favorably, while 28% do not.
Lastly, in a recent CNN poll, it showed that only 31% of respondents approve of the Tea Party and 54% do not.
Republican New York Representative Peter King has said that, "This party is nuts," and specifically targeted Ted Cruz during such statements.
John McCain and a few other Congressional Republicans have also taken shots at Tea Partiers in Congress.
So, does this mean that a solid majority of this country, including Congressional Republicans such as Peter King and John McCain, are socialists?
Magic 8 ball says: "My sources say no."
