She has remained above the fray. She never said she was backing out! The TEA PARTY event is for her! She is the keynote speaker! She would never disappoint the thousands of her supporters coming to see her!
The liar Crow made that ugly, ludicrous claim. He's a Perry supporter.
I posted the picture and link to the story about him yesterday on another thread, but you can see the picture of Crow and Perry and read the article HERE.
From the same link:
UPDATE III: From the Wall Street Journal article, which has since been corrected, but which gives this background on the previously reported “cancellation”:
The former governor will now appear at a Friday event in Des Moines sponsored by the group Conservatives4Palin. It is currently scheduled for 8 p.m. at The Machine Shed Restaurant, though the location will probably have to be changed, the person close to Ms. Palin said. Ms. Palin is still scheduled to appear at a Tea Party Express tour stop Monday in New Hampshire. Ms. Palin may still hold an event Saturday, the person said, though she has no firm plans. It’s also possible she could still attend the Indianola tea party rally, the person said. The former governor’s team decided to back out Tuesday night after rally organizers re-invited Ms. O’Donnell to speak on stage. Organizers had booked Ms. O’Donnell, who lost her 2010 bid for a U.S. Senate seat from Delaware, to speak but quickly withdrew the invitation in an effort to avoid controversy. A Tea Party of America leader told Ms. Palin’s aides that the former governor told him to re-invite Ms. O’Donnell, which is not true, the person said, adding that there were also issues over fund-raising and logistical changes that were not approved by Ms. Palin’s team.
Who is behind this ‘new’ Tea Party as well? Many of us knew the minute the busy-body control freaks started trying to ‘organize’ and start PACs that they would essentially mess up what was a true grassroots movement. I consider myself ‘tea party’, but I don’t remember ever ‘electing; this Crow dude or any of the other so called ‘leaders’ of various groups!
There are too many ‘T Party’ groups and me thinks some of them are fronts meant to divide and conquer or be co-opted by the politicians and old guard elites.
