Does anybody else roll their eyes when they see “tea party” capitalized, as if it’s a real, trademarked organization with “leaders”, etc.? I swear the rats are hard at work through their newsrooms (and with a lot of help from clownish political wannabes and libertarian malcontents) to turn the effective tea party protests of 2009 into “The Tea Party”, until it becomes the same kind of marginal laughingstock the “Move On” campaign evolved into ten years ago.
“Tea partiers” are individuals from across the nation who briefly “organized” a few times in order to shout as one at a corrupt and disgraceful government agenda of communist health care and the drunken waste of tax dollars. The “tea partiers” are still out there and they will vote because they are inspired to do so, but I doubt 95% of them give a rat’s behind about being called “tea partiers”. I know I sure don’t.
This effort by some people to turn the “tea partiers” (aren’t we all “tea partiers” here?) into a real live, ongoing “organization” with a convention and “leaders” and all the rest of the bells and whistles is stupid. It’s old already - - time to put the phrase “tea partiers” to rest. The battle has been joined and “tea partiers” will continue to shout (and vote!) for a return to sanity, and they need no label to do so.
NAACP is Pity Party racist.
I was the Tea Party before the Tea Party was cool...
The Tea Party isn't a political party...IT isn't a Federation...
It IS one person who wants his country back...And it's the guy across the street who also wants his country back...And it's a good share of the neighborhood who all want their country back...It is millions of like minded people who are realizing they are not alone in their beliefs and realizing there is power in numbers...
Exactly!
I’ve been saying this for over a year but no one will accept it. The media has won placing THE Tea Party in the minds of the public.
To me, it’s not a political party, it’s not an organization, it’s an idea.

It’s a label too convenient for the Left.
The Left and the MSM are working overtime to find vulnerabilities and punch holes.

Yes. What was the first bit in the Alinsky dogma for character assassination?
“Pin it”, as I recall.

And time to resurrect “Americans”.
