[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 886229, member: 17969"] WKMC WK, I differ with you on the creation of the Tea Party, but first, let me ask if you are talking about the Original Tea Party folks back in the day, or these Tea Party drones who show up at rallies: [IMG]http://pileusblog.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/teaparty1.jpg?w=267&h=189[/IMG] [IMG]http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vaE1nnCtw9Y/TBOevwlv0EI/AAAAAAAAAs8/Ao2eOO49zEA/s1600/oilspillteapartyOPTFM.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nbL3VuOKqug/TdBCkNZvgTI/AAAAAAAABsI/4h-VUvRQDOo/s1600/Man-in-stupid-hat-250x162.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://blog.oregonlive.com/politics_impact/2009/04/pl.taxday.272.cdb.jpg[/IMG] If these are the people who you are calling the Tea Party that is leaderless, then you are mistaken. The Current Tea Party was created by top end republican operatives ( Koch brothers, Sal Russo and the like) and presented an appearance of grassroots. It started as a scam and grew to an organized top dollar corporation. Look at the California Tea Party Express. Its a corporation, not a grass roots operation. Sure, afterwards, smaller Tea party groups started to spring up out of nowhere, but the base of the group is still controlled or as you put it "hijacked" by the republican political machine. Tea Party express Howard Kaloogian and Sal Russo. What about FREEDOMWORKS? [URL]http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=FreedomWorks[/URL] Another corporation run by former republican politicians and funded by the tobacco industry and the Kock Brothers. There is BIG MONEY involved in the creation of an astroturf group called the TEA PARTY, and the intention was to get smaller groups to form to HIDE the actual people who are funding and controlling the Tea Party. This is where I differ from you. It was never an astro turf group, but instead, a scam on the right wing supporters to believe they were a part of something different. The same billioniare and millionaires are behind the Tea Party movement, and those that want to be a part of it have NO IDEA. FREEDOM WORKS for example, has splinter tea party groups running around the country, and yet, the tobacco industry funds them and they then OPPOSE TOBACCO TAXES in capitol Hill. The real puppets are the people in the stupid hats, they have no idea they are the victims of the greatest scam in the political world. Peace. [/QUOTE]
