Best part of original article:

Some people at the Belleville meeting claimed to be Republicans, some were Democrats, while others were independents or confused

LOL...I would venture to say that all attendees were likely confused...including the reporter!

I have met Park and Byler.

They are two really screwed up delusional zealots.

Every issue to them is race based - politics, weather, immigration, sunrises. After about five minutes conversation you realize there’s no there there. They envision themselves brilliant sociologists who produce great films in the footsteps of Michael Moore, their hero.

In reality, they are two young punks with no useful skills or knowledge of the real world who are still wondering what they are going to be when they grow up, if they grow up.

What is really scary is that someone just like these airheads is now the President of the United States.

These coffee party people are just sad.

They have noticed that the Tea Party is happening, and it strikes them as a strong, burgeoning, trendy movement, basically internet-based, with large outdoor party-like gatherings and getting a solid amount of press.

These doofi live for this sort of thing. But the right wing bent of the movement makes it like kryptonite to them, no matter how happening it is. This makes them feel left out, like there is a flash mob and they're not invited. Or some creative cool dudes are doing street improv and they're not there to titter into their double-mocha decafs and giggle at the squares who don't get it.

To compensate, they're inventing their own Obama-friendly version of the tea party. And since all the young journalisty local cub reporters are the exact same type of dork, they run right out and type up a happy recap of the wee gathering, and now they all feel a part of super-trendy, yet purposeless, club.

They dream of getting t-shirts made, with which they can announce to the world that they are part of an ironically-named, politically topical, growing leftist movement. But their little group has absolutely no agenda or purpose, it's not really growing or popular, nobody will make the t-shirts and they won't be able to entice their hipper friends to join.

There will be one more meeting of this group, attendance three, before they disband to wax nostalgic about their rebellious and exciting coffee party days, when the newspaper even wrote an article about them.

One day, all Americans will live in government provided housing, without worry of where their next meal is coming from, no cost medical care, and even gym workout privileges without any monthly fees.

Notice how the media has lost Code Pink's phone number now that Obambi is Prezzydent?

There are still antiAmerican War protests, but they don't get any coverage. No daily mention of the war death totals either....

My Congressman Ed Royce had a town hall meeting this past Saturday. The turn out was pretty good with maybe 300 people in attendance at the Los Alamitos air base. A few dimoKKKRATS and a couple of LaRouche supporters were there but the rest were consevatives. Things were pretty civil except when one lady told by wife with a nasty “you shut up” which got my adrenalin going with a proper response from me. I don’t know if it made the local paper or not but I thought it was a good turn out.

Belleville is one of those St. Louis suburbs, you are correct.
