One liberal talking point that was so idiotic is that the rallies were not “focused”. That is the point - it gives the lie to the LSM saying they were orchestrated by Fox News or anyone. This is a true grassroots movement with many dissatisfied citizens with many, many complaints. The overreaching of executive power and choices of corrupt cabinet members and “czars”, the bailouts, the future debt and probable inflation... the list of atrocities against our Republic is quite lengthy.

...This is a true grassroots movement...

Isn't it ironic that Obama and his staffers cited the "grassroots movement" for being responsible for his success? They also extensively utilized the Internet, knowing that it was a very viable way to stimulate people's support.

Now the TEA party grassroots phenomenon has emerged and people have unitedly realized that they have been misrepresented beyond their will. These people did not need any central organization to bolster them. There was no one association association, person, corporation, media sponsor, or even any government funds utilized to get them to turn out to protest today's administration, the decisions of Congress, and the theft of our money and freedoms. This was the people - across the country - unitedly speaking out loudly and much more definitive to our President and Congress than ever before. Yet Obama says he was "unaware" of the TEA party protests!

Unaware??? Hogwash! No one who relied so heavily on the same sort of response from the grassroots for his campaign could be "unaware" of the current response by the grassroots AGAINST what the Government and Obama are pushing down our throats.

Never in our country's history, so early in a president's term, have so many spoken out so forcefully in assembly to protest what is coming out of Washington under this new administration.
