Ron Paul: TP Activists Similar to Egyptian Protesters

Ron Paul

(Pulaski Note) This was said after Egyptian protesters had raped and beaten CBS correspondent Lara Logan.  From thehill.com -Tea Party activists are similar to pro-democracy protesters in Egypt, Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) said Tuesday.  The libertarian congressman, who is a favorite of some Tea Party groups, said that like the protesters in Egypt, the small government movement does not have a defined leader and has many different factions.  Asked by CNN if he would prod the Tea Party movement to "do more" to push for spending cuts, Paul said that would do no good.  "Nobody controls the Tea Party people. They're restless," he said. "It's sort of like looking at those people who finally rebelled in Egypt and saying, OK, what is the consensus on what you want?" More News New Mexico
