Sure. The Tea Party embodies GWBs view of the world, in that there are only Good guys and Bad guys and force is the way to resolve all difficulties.

The Tea Party does not see a diverse America, with many different groups each with their own identity and values. It has it's own agenda, and does not believe in compromise. It will take down America rather than compromise.

It follows that the Tea Party prefers war to negotiation. War should never be a first option. Bush was planning war on Iraq starting in March, 2001, and those weren't contingency plans.

The Tea Party's financial plans are to transfer more wealth to the wealthy, cut social programs which help the poor and needy and promote more imperialism by funding a military far, far beyond anything remotely envisioned as "defense".

While Bush was never a formal Tea Partier, he was one hell of a partier who smoked rather than drank tea. Nevertheless, his failed policies are represent the Tea Party's agenda.

That's why. I believe in less war, more for needy Americans, and from each according to his ability.
