STORY HIGHLIGHTS
Washington (CNN) -- Listen to how loud tea party forces are this week and it will remind you of a valuable lesson: for some conservatives, the 2014 wins are likely to translate into more disappointment -- not more power.
The big issue -- and the last big act of the current Congress -- is whether lawmakers will pass a spending bill that keeps the government running well into 2015. Some tea party activists insist it is their duty to deny President Obama any funding that would help him implement what they call amnesty -- meaning the administration's recent executive actions on illegal immigration.

Transcript: President Obama's immigration address
In Monday's conservative Red State morning briefing, Item No. 1 is a complaint against the GOP leadership:
"They preemptively surrendered and now want to both nibble at Obamacare instead of end it and they want to fund the President's immigration plan. House Republicans, this week, are set to fund Barack Obama's amnesty plan with the help of House Democrats. If you want to stop amnesty, you must flood the offices of members of congress with phone calls. There's no other way. They need to hear from you and that you demand they keep their promises."
It's the kind of talk that in the past has put Speaker Boehner on thin ice -- and remember we did have a brief government shutdown not all that long ago because he could not corral -- and control -- the tea party forces.

Tea is taken very seriously in some parts of the world. Tea times are very important as well and will tell you what type of tea and tea foods to expect.
Cream tea is served in the afternoon and consist of tea and scones with some clotted cream, lemon curd and/or jam. And of course tea.
Two counties hold the Cream Tea close to their hearts, both believing this light meal originated within their borders yet differing in the manner the scones should be eaten. The Devonshire Tea or Devon Cream Tea hails from the county of Devon, where they prefer to split their scones into two halves, spread each half with clotted cream, and top each half with strawberry jam. Clotted cream and strawberry jam are essential elements of Devons variation.
Cornwall serves a Cornish Cream Tea by spreading strawberry jam on the scone first and then topping it with Cornish clotted cream. Whichever variation you may prefer, the love for the combination of tea, scones, clotted cream, and jam is one proven to be near and dear to the people of not only Devon and Cornwall but all who encounter this sweet treat!

Add fresh strawberries to cream tea and you have strawberry tea. Alternately, if you add more sweets to cream tea, you get light tea(6)
Afternoon tea is served around 4 pm.
