Santelli rant on 02/19/2009, first tea party rallies that I know of were 02/27/2009 and more on 04/15/2009.
Actually I remember Barry Farber asking his radio listeners to mail a tea bags to their congressman in the eighties before Rush.
yeah, that Barry Farber and his 7 listeners really started an amazing movement..and just think, it only took 27 years to kick in.
....just brilliant......
Yes, I mailed a few tea bags myself. What is your point?
