Seattle on Monday. Denver on Tuesday. Mesa AZ on Wednesday. Overland Park, Kansas today. What a week, huh? We got the anti-stimulus, anti-entitlement protest ball rolling — and now the movement, spurred further by CNBC host Rick Santelli’s call for a “Chicago Tea Party,” is really taking off.

Somehow I think the RINOs will find a way to screw 2010 for the GOP.

If the Boston Tea Party was any indication . . . I would say “Revolution”

then the mid term elections. If the movement grows fast enough, it will become a movement that supports fiscal discipline, conservatism, and an end to bailouts. By extension, it supports those candidates that support those goals.

All these Tea Party activists are racists. They resist the one, the Obama all encompassing. They are a cancer on the whole of humanity. To resist the one, the blackness, the retribution and socialism is unforgivable.

Be nice to have a bumpersticker saying that - I’d get an Obama sticker just to be able to place “Tea Party” at an angle to it ......

Is there a given day upon which to dump the tea? Where do we dump the tea?

I'm all for the tea party but make it meaningful. Let us think!

God Bless The Republic.

It’s not my party. Go to some of the links. You can join all of these groups and I am sure you will be told what to do.

Being told what to do is not the issue. I’m not running off half cocked and would like some information. Are we just talking about street protests or the actual dumping of tea?
