Ronald Reagan was the Tea Party - Mike Reagan

Liberals and their Democratic Party allies are frightened out of their half-wits by the re-emergence of the dreaded tea party, which began in Boston Harbor in December 1773, when colonists dressed as Indians dumped shiploads of tea into the water, helping to set off what eventually became the American Revolution.

There's nothing new about the liberal alarm over the tea party's reappearance in American politics. The last time they confronted it was back in the '60s, '70s and '80s, when my dad, Ronald Reagan, ran for governor of California, and then for the presidency of the United States.
