How the Tea Party was born...never forget

HillBuzz:

The only good thing that came out of the stimulus package was something that the Obama administration never expected: An angry, silent majority that woke up, realized that they’d been sold down the river, and who decided to fight back. Tea party groups quickly sprang up across the U.S., and this silent majority was silent no more.

Today, those same citizens have put down their signs, and are now working behind the scenes in communities everywhere, fighting to take our country back from the oppressive mandates that this administration has hoisted upon them.

Don’t you believe the media for one minute when they tell you that the tea party is dead. The party is stronger than ever, and they will not stop until the Obama administration and their marxist-like policies are stricken from this nation.

Watch Santelli’s historic rant, and remember that if it weren’t for the stimulus, the tea party never would have been born. Thanks for that, Mr. President!

Rick Santelli: “You Can’t Buy Your Way Into Prosperity”

Thank you, Rick Santelli

Tea Party Patriots wishes to extend a special thank you to Rick Santelli for his rant on February 19, 2009, which started this entire movement. Without Rick's rant, this movement would never have started. Many others will try to take credit but don't be fooled. He was the spark that began this fire.

Just good old-fashioned Chicago thugs

Rush fleshed out thugacity last November:

We finally found out last week the root of the word thug: a bunch of renegade robbers and murderers in India known as the Thuggees. They would befriend people traversing the countryside. They would walk with them, offer to help them (this goes back to the seventeen, 1800s) and they'd befriend them and make them think they were allies and help them in any danger -- and after they'd befriended them while the Thuggees would rob them and murder them and rape them and so forth, and move on down to the next unsuspecting bunch of people. So the Thuggees -- it's thug with two E's on the end, the Thuggees -- actually forms the root word and the origin of the word thug. I don't like admitting to copying people, but I must tell you I got this from Clinton during the primaries.

But Riehl World View pins it down hard for all of us here in Obamaland: it demeans the office and raises serious concerns as to whether these people can be trusted with the power they now have. Joe the Plumber and Rick Santelli are our modern day heroes who will, if you let them, lead us out of the darkness.

Welcome to The Second American Revolution!

Didn't take long, did it?
