My gut, which is usually right tells me that something is rotten in Denmark.

If this was a TRUE 1st national convention, they sure made the cost to attend beyond the scope for many of the grassroots patriots who started this movement.

I also am not keen on the ‘for profit’ tenure they have taken. Did the founders go around and say, pay up if you want to secure your freedom?

HELL NO!

This convention could have been held at a more central location & certainly at a facility that could have accommodated a true showing of the tea party movement. This is nothing more than Tea Party elites strutting their stuff and will eventually become the next TPINO (tea party in name only) astroturfing elites.

The American Entrepreneurial spirit in action.

They’re just making money off of a movement.

The movement has become a virtual ‘Che’ Party.

I have been suspicious of a RINO hijacking ever since the heavy involvement in Mass.
