Another Tea Party Dense Fact

Which one are you drinking?

I found this picture that is used on T-shirts, buttons, bumper stickers, etc. This picture represents the tea party movement, obviously, as the tea bag. The other parties are represented as the Kool-Aid. Aid has the double meaning of representing the social programs currently in action in the United States as well as the drink name. It seems to me that the major point that is trying to be emphasized is the difference between tea and Kool-Aid. Mostly, how the tea party especially differentiates itself from the GOP. The use of this term is becoming more popular in news accounts, etc.

It will be interesting to see how similar or different the motives and actions of the GOP and the Tea Party representatives really are.
