So, get off your high horses, support AMERICA, the FLAG, and innocent activities were the causes are genuine and pure.
Go ahead and start your Crusade with that stretch. For non-political groups, Tea Parties sure do participate in a lot of...politics.

Last I looked the "Tea Party Patriots" are not a political party in the particular County where this event is taking place.Everyone needs to calm down. Posting the colors at an event where the primary focus is the reading of the Constitution is not a political event. After the reading, singing the National Anthem and reciting the pledge of allegiance, the CAP will retire the colors and depart. Then and only then will an educational retrospective discussion of the constitution be conducted for those interested. No money is being raised publicly for a political candidate nor are any giving political speeches. This is only about reading the constitution, reciting the pledge of allegiance and singing the national anthem. PERRIOD.]If you all want to play this game, be prepared to play. If we begin this "can't support because" junk I will personally go after every single CAP Squadron that posts colors anywhere and at every event. If a Coca-Cola sign is visible where your SQUADRON is posting the flag at a sporting event, veterans events etc., that means you support Coca-Cola.....Do you see how ridiculous that is?!?! That is what you all sound like.

Suppose you are at a VFW affair, post, and then some Veteran makes a statement that is political and then is joined in by his fellows. So much so, it makes the papers. What then? I'll bet that the people here won't even look into it as I have come to suggest of late. Instead, the trash talking commences in total blindness.

The VFW, however, as an organization, is apolitical, and any issues that would pop up would be bad-actor members, not the VFW itself.
I may lean towards the Democrats

The fact is, everything these days is political.
