Well, you're kind of a slow learner; the Republicans have not been behind this movement from the begining. The movement was started by small groups of citizens in only a few places and grew to what it is today.

The Tea Party Movement (as it became known) comprises Independents, Democrats, Republicans and others, who are not happy with the spending, the "big government" regulations, taxes, etc, etc.

If you think this is just Republicans, you are in for a rude awakening.

In fact, recent polls show that Independents (those the Democrats depend on) are most likely to dump Democrats in November. Do you even need to ask why?

This is a "peoples" movement. And it's about time!

But, I understand, you want to stick your head in the sand and claim otherwise. Be my guest. You're the one that's in for the shock.

how's that workin' out for ya?
Poor little you! Things are "workin' out" great for Sarah Palin. She has been getting rave reviews, as of late.

Nothing you people can say or do will discredit her. She is who she is. And people love her.

But listen to Obama. Every time he speaks, he steps in it. Every time he speaks, his poll numbers drop. Why? He lies whenever he opens his mouth. And people know it. He's not fooling anyone.

**** up!

LOL! FNC had absolutely nothing to do with the Tea Party Movement, except that they reported on it when everyone else ignored it.

Grasp at straws much?

Tea Party people will vote for whoever stands for the Constitution, limited government, the free market system (capitalism) and American ideals (the Democrats stand for none of these things).

That is why they are continually gaining ground.

The left winger's ignorance will be their undoing as we have seen in the recent elections and the polls. I love it! The people are gathering in a common cause. The Republicans had nothing to do with the Tax Protests but they are waking up while the Democrats continue to wallow in denial and ignorance. They are so sustable to the leftist propaganda they cannot break free from it.

Isn't the tea party folks the ones that were screaming about Obama not being born in America?
These are the same people that wave racist signs regarding our president. Are these the same people that follow Sarah Cant finish a job Palin like she is the great Messiah?

Now do you REALLY expect me and anyone else with and IQ over 50 to really believe what these morons have to say?

The protest are open to anyone sick of our tax dollars being squandered. You can grasp that can't you? Considering the left cannot figure out that simple fact, there seems to be no one on the left with an IQ over 50.

People love her? Are you sure about that?

Over 70% think Sarah Palin is 'not qualified to serve as President'
