Core Beliefs of the G.O.P.

(front page, Jan. 6):

If you look at the antics of the Tea Party-type Republicans, one can easily
view the Republicans as a divided, even leaderless, party.

However, if you look at the core beliefs shared by both Tea Party and
non-Tea Party Republicans, it’s hard to see any basic differences. They
both worship the wealthy, want to shrink government so it cannot help the
less privileged, seek to slash spending, except on military expenditures,
would try to strip women of the right to abortion, would work to make all
labor unions disappear and would disenfranchise millions of voters. It’s
only on tactics and vehemence that they differ.
