"In fact, its a sea change in America, I believe. Recently, there have been protests by ordinary Americans who marched on Washington to demand their government stop spending away their future. Large numbers of ordinary, middle-class Democrats, Republicans, and Independents from all over the country marching on Washington?! You know somethings up!
These are the same people who flocked to the town halls this summer to face their elected officials who were home on hiatus from that distant capital and were now confronted with the people they represent. Big town hall meetings video clips circulating coverage people watching, feeling not so alone anymore.
The town halls and the Tea Party movement are both part of a growing grassroots consciousness among ordinary Americans whove decided that if they want real change, they must take the lead and not wait to be led. Real change and, you know, you dont need a title to do it.
The Tea Party Movement is aptly named to remind people of the American Revolution of colonial patriots who shook off the yoke of a distant government and declared their freedom from indifferent elitist rulers who limited their progress and showed them no respect. Today, Main Street Americans see Washington in similar terms." - Sarah Palin, September 23, 2009
