I am responding to David CurriesTexas politics badly skewed by far right,Special to the Standard-Times(May 1 opinion page).

To me it is obvious that David Currie has not attended any TEA Party meetings, anywhere, at any time. Had he attended open, everyone is-invited-to-come, meetings, he would have found that most of the members do not agree 100% on any one of various subjects and/or political views a candidate may have. We do not accept everything we hear or read.

The comment made about Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick being 100% TEA Party raises a question: How many TEA Party meetings has Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick attended? We are not all Republicans but more diverse. The TEA Party welcomes Republicans, Democrats, Independents and anyone else that wants to learn more about candidates running for office, issues and the United States Constitution. We even learn some about history.

It appears to me that Drew Darby and Joe Straus are working more for themselves than they are for any political party. To be honest, I agreethat there are good and bad Republicans but I am also aware that there are good and bad Democrats.

I realized from reading the article that a good part of it is just your opinion. I do question your statement, The fact is that 70% of you reading this agree with me etc. etc. I would like to know where that figure came from.

I am surprised that you, a retired Baptist minister, are so down on Christians. Perhaps you would like to define the Christian Right. Isnt the Christian Rightthe people that believe and strictly live by the Bible?

Fay Brown,
