The Ryuns are "poseurs" because you've decided they are and defined them as the enemy

No, they are poseurs because the tea party groups right next to their official address on their website have never heard of them.

They claim to be doing all this training for tea party groups. Yet they never contacted the regional tea party that includes their headquarters? You believe that?

The NVTP did have training -- from someone else!

The leader, John Grigsby, who arranged the training lives about 2 miles from the official address listed on American Majority's website. He never heard of them. He is one of the organizers of the tea party in Northern VIrginia. Yet when he went looking for training, he had never heard of American Majority 2 miles from where he lives.

The NVTP has gotten tremendous news coverage in Virginia. Yet American Majority is so totally uninvolved in the tea party movement that they never noticed. We went to the statewide tea party convention. Didn't hear about them there, either.

Admitting you have no clue about a group in your own back yard is not a great selling point.

Why not? It seems that they're a group with national focus, headquartered in VA but with most of their activity coming in middle America, from Texas to Minnesota.

You've seen Erick Erickson's response, where he called you out for your ill-founded attacks on this conservative activist group.

So what if they didn't stroke your ego by kow-towing to some regional self-appointed tea party leaders?

Get over it. Conservative groups don't have to get your personal blessing to have a HQ in northern VA.

Jon - John Grigsby here. I don’t live 2 miles away from Purcellville,and I did know of American Majority’s office in Pville. I don’t appreciate your putting words in my mouth. I am impressed that you don’t appear to have threatened to sue anyone in this thread. That’s real progress, Jon.

Folks, Jon was fired by Paul Schiffer, candidate for Congress in Ohio. Paul recently told me some truly amazing stuff about Jon, more than I already knew. I’d stay away from him and another Richard Delgaudio associate, Ron Wilcox, who went rogue, leaving the two other NVTP founders and their board, to go on a personal power trip.

Novatownhall.com did a great expose on him, but because nearly disbarred attorney Jon Moseley threatened to sue, novatownhall avoided risk and took down their posting, which was entirely true. Dailykos has an article on Ronald Wilcox. Might want to take a look.
