CNN - Political Ticker ^ | 2009-09-02

EL PASO, Texas (CNN) — As the Tea Party Express makes its way across the country, Sarah Palin has emerged as a favorite daughter of the movement, and organizers have invited her to join the tour — or at least come to the final stop in the nation's capital.

The bus is scheduled to end its nationwide journey in Washington on Saturday, September 12.

"We've been in touch with her people, letting her know the response that we've gotten. She's very supportive of the movement," says Joe Wierzbicki, one of the organizers traveling on the Tea Party Express.

If Sarah Palin decides to come and people know ahead of time, my guess is that crowd will quadruple ... and then some.

I love how the MSM is so fascinated with "leaders".

People who believe in individual freedoms are our own leaders.

Palin could very easily become the leader of the TEA Party movement, the town hall patriots, the right to life movement, Evangelicals, NRA members, and people who are just fed up with the 0bama over reach.

If she issued an invitation to all her supporters on Facebook to go to DC, and said that she would be there herself, that news would spread like wildfire.

It should be noted that at the townhall meeting in VA with Howard Dean last week, the crowd also chanted “Sarah Sarah Sarah.” YOu know that was reported back to the white house.

probably not a good idea to politicize the tea parties. They are not “republican” rallies.

This is on I’ll put in the Hands of God. If it’s right for Sarah to attend, then I pray that God will help make it so.

What the state-run media and the 0bama crew don't understand is that this is a Leaderless Revolution.

Individuals are chipping in to help in their own way. Millions upon millions of these “chips” amass creating the revolution.

The leftist so want a leader to emerge so they can “Alinsky” him/her. They even went so far as to declare Rush Limbaugh as the leader. FAIL.

Palin, who I adore politically, simply posts “death panels” on her Facebook page and presto! debate trumped.

She's smart and I believe very attuned. Why would she want to be the “leader” and set the movement up for frontal, individual attack, when the best they can do is attack the amorphous "mob"? She simply has to support and “chip in” to the revolution to have the greatest impact.

Come president running time, she might become the great pick, but right now I believe she is positioning herself to promote this wonderful, powerful Leaderless Revolution.

It is working better than anyone could have hoped. The leftists are failing, in part, because they have no home for their Alinsky long knives.

Nothing wrong with her supporting the Tea Party as a concerned citizen. The dems are going to politicise everything anyway.

Sarah pretty much tells it like it is and truth is hard for thugs and crooked politicians of which to be confronted. Thus far she has been great at conveying the true nature of this administration's destructive agenda. I pray that God keeps her forever safe.

ah so the Facebook strategy is her way of getting into the debate without (ironically) putting her face into it.

Well, maybe.

On the other hand, she's been known to have a couple of run-ins with some "Republicans".

This should be a song the TEA Party Express attendees sing when they get to DC in front of the White House. Dedicate it to Obama!

Wee Wee Song (Now Dedicated to Obama) For those of you who might not know or remember...This is an old camp song.

Here are the lyrics:

When I was just a wee wee tot
They put me on my wee wee pot
To see if I would wee or not
Wee wee, wee wee

When they saw that I would not
Wee wee in my wee wee pot
They put me in my wee wee cot
And there I wee weed quite a lot
Wee wee, wee wee, wee wee wee wee wee

You’re right! All of these Tea Parties are NOT Republican rallies! They are American, Constitutionalists rallies. Seems that almost half of the country has no party these days.
