Would the GOP go for that...

The Grumpy Old Men?

Mostly a worthless collection of old fool liberals disguising themselves as Republicans.

The same goes for the RNC, aka the RHINO National Committee.

[DTogo]

Probably not, but screw the GOP anyway!

[toddausauras]

As someone else here said, screw the GOP. Absorb the Republicans and take them over.

[broken_arrow1]

Absorb the Republicans and take them over.

take NO prisoners!

I hope with all my heart that Glenn Beck will not waste all the good he’s done by associating himself with that lunatic Ron Paul and his adepts.

The RINOGOP establishment, the lamestream media, and the DNC could not hope for a better Christmas (ops! I meant “Holiday”) present.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Rick Santelli lit the fuse.

Rick Santelli and the "Rant of the Year"

[Recon Dad]

I heard that too and was also stunned that Paul was being given credit.

[DesertDreamer]

Who started the Tea Party movement?

Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and Barack Hussein Obama.

[Just A Nobody]

Ron Paul was credited for the beginning of the movement

I heard it, too. It was a rerun and I saw the original program as well. It was disappointing that Beck did not correct, or at least throw out a "I'm not sure about that" to expose that fraudulent idea.

As others have said -- Rick Santelli's comments are what started it as far as I know -- and I attended the first tea party scheduled after his rant on February 27th.

[RoadTest]

The White House and Congress show about as much interest in the Tea Parties as a bunch of alcoholics would.

I remember the first I heard about a march on DC was after the stockbroker guy ranted....back in February, I think. Nobody was the “founder”. It was due to so many of us being fed up, IMO. Some national known voices jumped in and helped get the word out.

I could be ignorant of others’ actions but that is how I remember it.

[jch10]

Posted before I read the thread....sorry.

[NordP]

Me too - heard Santelli, attended San Diego's first TEA Party Feb 27th.

I even used a fellow patriot's bull horn to say, "WE hear you Rick Santelli, the NATION hears you, and the people that DID this to our Country will hear from ALL of us, now!"

A little play on W's words for the terrorists, but hey... it fit!

[Just A Nobody]

"WE hear you Rick Santelli, the NATION hears you, and the people that DID this to our Country will hear from ALL of us, now!"

I LOVE it!
Mimicking our President was not a bad touch. ;*)

[Kimberly GG]

As much as I like Michelle....NO POLITICIANS should be involved in the TeaParties. None.

[Kimberly GG]

Not likely. On “path to citizenship” amnesty, they are opposite. Bachmann is a NO, Palin is a Yes.

[DTogo]

We shall see. She might have just been parroting the Juan McQueeg Fiesta/Siesta line. If not, it would be a major disappointment.

[ExcursionGuy84]

Bachmann is a NO, Palin is a Yes.

Have you listened to Rush limbaugh's interview of Sarah ? If Not, then try to get the closing few minutes of the 'cast because Sarah gives a clear angle AGAINST the flow of illegal immigrants.
She doesn't say outright that Amnesty should NOT exist but she is very much in favor of dealing correctly with the problem.

[Kimberly GG]

...”Sarah gives a clear angle AGAINST the flow of illegal immigrants. She doesn’t say outright that Amnesty should NOT exist but she is very much in favor of dealing correctly with the problem.”

Yeah, Bush, McCain, Thompson, Romney, Guiliani and most of the rest said likewise. No different and unacceptable.

When she opposes a “path to citizenship”, let me know.
