I saw that “radical” label and wanted to choke the writer of that piece to show him exactly what a radical is.

Surprised they listed 12 points, not Becks 3Gs: God, Gold, and Guns so they could portray anyone associated with the Tea Bag movement a nut.

We owe a debt of gratitude to Rick Santelli who came up with the idea of going down to the Chicago river and dumping tea in on the 4th of July. I believe he was the first to come up with that concept which has galvanized a nation. Unfortunately, the bosses at NBC right up to the POS CEO Ismelt told him to cool it or they would be fired.
Now, that is what I call a radical, someone who stifles a free expression of fact.

It would be lost on him - he's probably choking some poor Gerbil now.

Yes. Since 0 "wasn't aware" of the Tea Party protests that involved at least tens of thousands of Americans, it strikes me more is needed.

I was listening to a radio show last night where a caller bemoaned the lack of civil disobedience these days, pointing out how effective it was for MLK.

That got me to thinking that the next Tea Party march on DC should involve exercising God-given Second Amendment rights, with most if not all of the hundreds of thousands of marchers carrying firearms. Since that's not allowed in DC, it would be civil disobedience on a grand scale, while remaining completely peaceful. One hopes, at least. ;-)

I'm quite sure 0 would notice that. Just a hypothetical idea, of course. :-)
