Social conservatives in libertarian clothing = "tea party"
Their concept is hardly original either. The Libertarian party has been throwing tea protests since back in the 70s. Of course they tend to be just nuts, not angry nuts.

Yeah, it's a Republican stunt that was first mass promoted by Fox (if anyone recalls they came under fire about it) and gave birth to it. I also love just how unaware they are of Fox wielding them like a blunt object. I mean, at least pay these people for doing "gods work". Or teach 'em how to make proper signs even.
