I am Tea Party. I will not be intimidated.

That was one amazing rant... Thank you Rick Santelli... for the rant heard round the world.
We are the Tea Party! Call us what you will! Insult us with your crude sexual descriptions. What is it you are afraid of?
We want the government we deserve from the Constitution. Nothing more, nothing less.
We don’t care about people’s sex lives or the color of their skin. We want freedom and opportunity for all Americans. We want government out of the way. We don’t want goodies with huge strings attached.
Santelli is one of the few remaining righties at CNBC along with Michelle Caruso-Cabrera, Joe Kernan and Larry Kudlow. All the rest have jumped to FoxBiz including Neil Cavuto, Maria Bartiromo, Eric Bolling, Liz Claman, Melissa Francis, Charlie Gasparino and Stuart Varnie.
However, you're one of my favorite FReepers, and I'm not going to get into a flame war with you. FReegards.
