Too funny. There is no real Tea Party and they are attacking it. It is like attacking a shadow. We are just a rag tag band of Overtaxed and fed up people. I went to the townhall in Tampa and we scared the Union and Acorn Congresscommie Castor to death and were on National News. So now they are attacking citizens who just want to get back to normal. I kind of see it as people realizing how Libertarian they are. Aside from a few social and foriegn policy issues. Seems to be a Taxpayer revolt. Even an answer to the Black and Progressive Caucuses that have caused so much trouble.

"It is like attacking a shadow."

They know that. That is why they are going out of their way to "establish" Tea Party leaders anyway [note Juan Williams on Fox calling Palin the "leader" of the Tea Party, despite her prior rejection of any such interest.]

It is an Alinsky "Rules For Radicals" tactic: They need to establish Tea Party leader(s) in the public mind, even if they do not exist, so they can undermine the Tea Party by destroying the reputation of these specific people.

My thoughts exactly.

That is why the Tea Party movement must remain grassroots and local. They will attack people who they PERCEIVE are the ‘leaders’ in the movement. The only thing is, the movement is US. There is no real leader or national organizers.

The Clintonistas just don’t get it - and never will. And that will lead, eventually, to their downfall. Ignore the will of the people, and see what happens. The pot is starting to boil over!

Sort of like shooting The Thing. There’s no one person that’s absolutely essential. If they destroy some individuals by digging up dirt—nothing will happen.
