...What we discovered is that Santelli’s “rant” was not at all spontaneous as his alleged fans claim, but rather it was a carefully-planned trigger for the anti-Obama campaign. In PR terms, his February 19th call for a “Chicago Tea Party” was the launch event of a carefully organized and sophisticated PR campaign, one in which Santelli served as a frontman, using the CNBC airwaves for publicity, for the some of the craziest and sleaziest rightwing oligarch clans this country has ever produced. Namely, the Koch family, the multibilllionaire owners of the largest private corporation in America, and funders of scores of rightwing thinktanks and advocacy groups, from the Cato Institute and Reason Magazine to FreedomWorks. The scion of the Koch family, Fred Koch, was a co-founder of the notorious extremist-rightwing John Birch Society...

Pfffft!
Ah, those idiots at Playboy do realize, don’t they, that a man named AXELROD invented “astroturf” PR campaigns?
Bull shit from porn peddlers.
Hey Playboy they forgot to tell me!! I was still there haha
If this is the kind of stories they are writing at Playboy now days all those people that claim they only get it for the articles are going to have to come up with a new story.
“Namely, the Koch family, the multibilllionaire owners of the largest private corporation in America,”
Probably said with disdain and disgust.
The Zero-ites don’t want there to be any private corporations left in America!!
Horrors! It was planned. Too bad it could have been ad hic idiocy like what’s coming from the Obamaloon team.
How little they know how disorganzied and spontaneous all these tea parties were. How can we combat these outrageous accusations?
This article is a “rant” itself. I gather the writers and editors behind it don’t believe all classes of Americans are entitled to participate in politics.
More communist propaganda.
I couldn’t get to page two of the article. It was stuck to page three.
gotta defuse the uprising
Any criticism of The One must be discredited and the critic demonized. The people must be taught unquestioning faith in their infallible leader.
Screw this jerk.
I assure you, my appearance at the Georgia Capitol was not sponsored by anyone. And I represented many folks I spoke with who were working and couldn’t make it.
**Horrors! It was planned. **
Some of the BEST Spontaneous adlibs Are Well rehearsed, just waiting for the RIGHT TIME to be SPRUNG.. As for Rehearsed adlibs... Talk to SLICK WILLY ..he was a MASTER at it.
OK, now *that’s* funny! LOL!
Obama works with Billionaire Communists whose sole purpose is to destroy the free market, individualism, liberty, freedom, private property rights and a host of other radical initiatives, including manipulating the markets resulting in the loss of Trillions in private wealth, retirement plans, home equity, etc.
And Playboy has their panties in a twist about Santelli? Wow, talk about misplaced priorities.
Whether there is a larger movement behind the Tea Parties remains to be seen, but to many of us rich or poor, they are a welcome blast of fresh air.
Rick Santelli is an American patriot.
