On the Tea Party movement:
It is an uprising of the people — (Applause) — an uprising of the people to say, “Hey, Government, we are not to be working for you. You are to be working for us. Let’s get government back on our side.” So heaven forbid the Tea Party movement think that they need an individual, a politician to put their faith in, to be their leader.
Sarah was shredded by the news media, but that same news media brutally and maliciously savaged her children and it can’t be undone. They can clean up their act, but they can’t undo their damage.
