Pajamas Media ^ | July 20, 2009 | Donald Kent Douglas

My unscientific view is that the tea parties have kept opposition to Obama in the air, floating beyond the MSM, so that even people who might not be into them have been aware that there is a silent majority or minority out there questioning this guy. It’s reassuring to know that even if the MSM aren’t covering it, there IS opposition. That makes people more comfortable diverting from the “everyone thinks” position plastered over the media.

Don’t know if the Tea Parties are helping or not but believe it is our duty to oppose the criminals in DC everyday and in every way we can lawfully do so. Never, ever give up. The scum think they can beat us down, it is up to us to prove them wrong and yes, we are a minority, deal with it.
