duh, the entire Tea Party meme has been a pure media construct since 2008 when the mainstream media decided to make up a reconstruction of a simple idea to raise money for Ron Paul’s Presidential election. Some contributors to this blog also decided to do their best to derail that as well.

At any rate, the mainstream brought in Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, and other people that they knew would undermine the entire spirit of the original event and their mission has since been accomplished.

In the end there is no mainstream political orchestrated phenomenon you should join. If you missed it back when it was real then you’ll just be a tourist or much much much worse the 2nd time around.

Will somebody tell me what the Tea Party really is? I see a great divide hear. If Rand is in, then great, maybe I’m in but if Palin is in, what’s that about? Didn’t Gingrich at one point attach himself to it like a parasitic hitchhiker? Lets clean this thing up. Until then, I’m probably stearing clear and staying libertarian.

“By frequently putting Rand Paul, the son of Ron Paul and Grayson’s opponent, on its air, Grayson says the network has all but endorsed Paul and given him an easy way to tout his candidacy without actually meeting Kentucky voters in person.”

By that logic, MSNBC all but endorsed Paul by inviting him on to Rachel Maddow’s show frequently.

Well, I ceased to call myself a Republican when I concluded, after reading the book “Where Keynes Went Wrong”, that Paul Sr. was on target with his anti-Fed campaign. I was fed up with too much corruption in either major party, and the GOP’s ever drifting to more spending and larger government. Combine all the things you believe in and the Libertarians don’t look so bad. Have one, like Paul Jr get an authentic victory within the GOP and you are truly energized. There’s hope, after One Big Ass Mistake America.
