Heard it WLS this morning, with discussion following. It was great. A Chicago Tea Party? I'm in!
“This is America. How many of you people want to pay for your neighbor’s mortgage that has an extra bathroom and can’t pay their bills? Raise their hand.”
There were boos.
“President Obama are you listening?” Santelli asked.
Santelli said, “We’re thinking about having a Chicago tea party in July. All you capitalists that want to show up to Lake Michigan, I’m going to start organizing it! We’re going to be dumping in some derivative securities, what do you think about that?”
“Heard it WLS this morning, with discussion following. It was great. A Chicago Tea Party? I’m in!”
I believe the July 4th date has been mentioned. The city usually puts on the fireworks display on the 3rd. But I believe Taste of Chicago is still going on the 4th? A tea party crowd showing up on the 4th could shut down “Taste”, much to the chagrin of our (give them bread and circuses) “City Fathers.”
