MSNBC not reporting them doesn't mean that they're not happening.

The Tea Party movement is alive and well. The election's over, so the media has no business case for continuing coverage of it - for now. When the '12 election season starts to heat up, you'll start to see the media covering the movement again. After the massacre the Democrats suffered last month, that's a guarantee.

I should dredge up all the posts from April '09 where people were saying that the movement was just a fad and wouldn't last a year, and serve them up with a hefty plate of crow.

What can they say at this point? The GOP is about to add BILLIONS to the deficit already. I'd imagine the 'baggers would feel stupid at this point, but considering how oblivious they are in general I doubt they even know what is going on.

I agree completely, the tea party was just a vehicle for the Republican Party, nothing more and nothing less.

Funny how they didn't care about reducing "taxes" while GWB was spending away the nation's surplusby waging a profiteer/vendetta war.

Did taxes suddenly "increase" only on Nov 4, 2008? Sure seems like a lot of people suddenly started getting riled up about "taxes" on that day.

Mouser post #9 - There is very little moderate, conservative or sensible presented by the Republican or the Tea Parties.

Where's the tea party when we need them? The compromise between Repubs and Obama spending 900 billion more of borrowed money and adding to the deficit should have them foaming at the mouth and protesting in the streets. Where are they? Only people I hear outrage from are tried and true democrats. Have we entered Bizzarro World or what? Did Glen Beck die or something? He should be furiously scribbling on his chalkboard by now. Palin should be holding a press conference condemning the massive spending.

I'm not part of the tea party movement, but I sure did care about "taxes" during GWB's tenure and I'll bet many tea party participants did as well. There also has to be a starting point when people say "enough is enough".
I noticed it really picking up steam with others during the TARP/ Automaker bailouts. (hint:Bush, a whitey was still in office)
But go ahead and strawman away if it helps you receive validation, I know you and your ilk want so desperately for this to be about race and not the pathological destructive actions of our government.

That is nothing. So they are having some meetings. Where is the anger for the deficit being increased. It only matters that they defeat Obama in 2012. They don't care about taxes or anything else anyone does except Obama. Oh wait I'm wrong. They want to get rid of steele also. Sorry
