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?
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Please learn to read...I DID NOT say that I had never heard of him; simply said his name was not common to me. There is a big FreedomWorks event here in Louisville today. Why don’t you bring your ass here and ask some of the thousands here today who Rick Santelli is. I suppose you would be surprised at their lack of worship for the man. And yes, I attended Tea Party protests BEFORE Santelli’s speech. Just because YOU were not aware of them, doesn’t mean they didn’t happen. George W. Bush, is that you?
