National Tea Party Leadership Team Accepts President Obama's Invitation

Good quick response by some of the tea party organizers. I'd have made the press release punchier with a rebuke of Obama's mocking the million-plus Americans who participated in the April 15 tea parties, but then again I'm a Freeper :-)

[Piranha]

Who are they? Are they legitimately able to claim the mantle of leadership of the national tea party movement?

I’m pretty suspicious and I don’t remember any election among tea party groups to elect leadership of a national coalition.

“Nationwide Tea Party Coalition” Never heard of this bunch: This bunch sounds like interlopers to me!

[kristinn]

Yes, they’re legit.

[Ajnin]

I am happy he is open to a discussion.

That's some serious naivete. Obama isn't open to anything except his own America destroying agenda. It is a mistake to believe that the invitation is anything but nefarious.

[cripplecreek]

Same here. I’m independent of any group other than Americans.

[Sir Gawain]

Although the name sounds presumptuous, it does seem to be populated by some of the stronger organizers.

CRAP! Someone has assumed the national face of tea parties???

A pox on them and their houses! That is not what the parties are about.

[US Navy Vet]

“Yes, they’re legit.” WHAT THE BLANK MAKES THEM “LEGIT”?!

[b4its2late]

He’ll ignore us for as long as he can.

[FlashBack]

Are they FReepers??
I hope they show him as much respect as he showed them the last few weeks!

[Red_Devil 232]

Looks like you and I agree.

[Anti-Kenyan]

It’s a trap

[Mr Rogers]

No one holding talks with Obama on spending is ‘legit’. This is a chance to make Obama look good by engaging in ‘bipartisan talks’ just prior to screwing the American Taxpayer!

No way in hell is this legitimate!

There were, and are, several other issues that motivated people to attend a Tea Party. The 2nd amendment and right to life groups were well represented and active. I see a tendency for some folks to ignore this fact, and it is not a good idea!

Are we all in this together, or are we going to split into smaller, less effective groups?

Dear National Leaders of the Tea Parties:

Don't presume to talk for me.

[skeeter]

BO wants to use this group to prep the public for nat'l health care.

They'd best keep the message simple - its about taxing & spending - & don't allow BO's premise for the discussion.

[eureka!]

FYI, in light of the earlier post to you...

Are we all in this together, or are we going to split into smaller, less effective groups?

Seems to me that we were pretty effective without their help.
