Okay, tell yourself whatever you want to believe. I have been hanging out in Tea Party circles for several years (long before the speech you quote from 2009)...”Louisville Tea Party,” “Tea Party Patriots,” “United Kentucky Tea Party,” etc, etc. And I have never heard one person in those groups EVER mouth the words...let me scroll up and read his name again, because it is not common to me...Rick Santelli.
Wow...you are truly a unique individual. The one conservative who's never heard of Rick Santelli. OTOH, those other guys and organizations you mentioned must have been the real spark behind the Tea Party, because of all the huge Tea Party protests in 2007 and 2008, right? Oh yeah...there weren't any until 2009, after Rick Santelli lit the fire. Dr. Paul, is that you?
