ibdshell,

You make alot of sense. I have felt so at odds with my government for the last eight years and plenty of people and the media did their best to coin me and others with similar views 'unpatriotic'. Now just 4 months into Obama's 1st term, the media has decided that it is patriotic to protest. I am so digusted by the whole thing.

Why are the teapotiers getting so much coverage. You couldn't find a tv camera @ the anti war protests over the last few years and those protests were much larger. The Global Marajuana March will take place on May 6 of this year. The dimenstration will be gigantic in comparison to the tea Potiers but I bet it won't eben be mentioned on some news concerns. I say America love it or leave it. Why does fox hate our democracy.

The recent spate of reich wing activism has been spoiled by the cheezy organizational trappings of the sponsoring right wing groups and by the unfortunate resemblance of their thematic elements to homoerotic and homosexual activities-teabagging, 2m4m, on and on. It is almost as if there is a gay movement waiting to come out and blossom on the right, where teabagging and group gay sex will unite the silent majority into a mighty rainbow of political organization.

Wrong. The New Way Forward protests were AGAINST the bank bailouts (Bush policy continued by the Obama administration). The Oregon Green Party endorsed them, and hundreds of people turned out in Portland. Too bad the turnout was poor in Washington, but it's a brand-new organization.

I examined NWF's website very carefully; no mention of the Teabaggers (snicker). It isn't really clear yet who NWF are, but they aren't kneejerk Obama supporters.

The whole Tea Party project seems more like a publicity scam (by the Kochs) than a serious political effort. Anyone with an ounce of political experience knows that this street theater will not stop legislation, and probably won't help elect any Republicans in next year's midterms, either. So what's it really all about? Certainly the pointless Tea Party's distract activists from taking a cold, critical look at the GOP's own big-spending ways.
