Draw what ever conclusions you want, just don’t put things out there that are not true.

It is true the Tea Party movement has always been premised on the decentralized leadership at the grassroots level, without anyone spokesperson or group. It's also true her speech on behalf of Tea Party Express will be one subtle step towards her being the sole leader and Tea Party Express being the leading group.

The Tea Party Express is a legitimate expression of the Tea Party, is an activist organization, and has asked the founder of the House Tea Party Caucaus to speak. It does project power, but I don't think it assumes all power from the entire Tea Party movement.

Various Tea Party organizations are free to have their own speakers, too. They are not being muscled out or anything.

And I don't think that the public is going to forget Sarah Palin's connection with the Tea Party any time soon.

You know I am so tired of the kind of stuff you are posting that I have to just say you are full of crap.

You are acting, with your judgmental pronouncements about Bachmann and the TPX, more like a self appointed leader of the Tea Party Movement than either the TPX or Bachmann have ever presented themselves as

Get over yourself

You are NOT the spokesman for who or what is the tea party movement.

Nor are you the leader, although you are acting like you are.

It's...true her speech on behalf of (The) Tea Party Express...

She is NOT speaking "on behalf of" the Tea Party Express.

You are either purposely or ignorantly planting ideas not based in fact and it is making you look quite foolish.

Take you time and read articles, then post.

You are mischaracterising everything you talk about.

You ARE NOT the leader of the Tea Party Movement, stop acting like you are!
