"In April 2009, Tucker gave a brief man in the street-style interview at a Tea Party rally in Tifton, Georgia to a WALB NBC news crew;[7][9] during the interview, she voiced support for the Tea Party movement, and said she was "furious about the way we're being led towards socialism."[7] In October 2010, British newspaper The Guardian discovered a personal page for Maureen Tucker on The Tea Party Patriots official website, wherein she stated, "I have come to believe (not just wonder) that Obama's plan is to destroy America from within." Her page goes on to encourage readers to send the White House "a letter/postcard" addressed to "King Obama."[7]
Tucker expanded on her political instincts later to the Riverfront Times, saying:
“ To be honest, I never paid attention to what the hell was going on. My always voting Democrat was the result of that. My philosophy was and is all politicians are liars, bums and cheats.[8]"
