TBO:
"You think these "tea baggers" were some sort of independent "rising up" when it was manufactured straight up out of a rightwing populist think tank. You're blind baby, you're blind."The irony of this comment is that it sounds like some snippet you would get from the "left wing populist tank". Blue, I am curious to know why exactly you think that the tea parties were some right wing manufactured event? Do you suppose they would actually have the ability, to collaborate (and actually get thousands of people to attend) tea parties all over the US? You know I went to a tea party, and I know several people that attended one in my own city, and I can assure you the motivation to attend had nothing to do with propaganda from any conservative talk radio or other media.
So with all do respect, unless you can give any real evidence for your claim, it's nothing more than a conspiracy theory. There were lots of genuinely concerned and angry people out that day, people who (even if you don't agree with them) care deeply about their country.
- Apparently someone missed the 24/7 Fox "News" coverage for three weeks of this...TheBlueOne
- ..otherwise known as "propaganda"..TheBlueOne
- Unless you want to point me to another protest that Fox covered with equal fervor and hype..TheBlueOne
- ..and at cost to their programming schedule.TheBlueOne
- Not questioning peoples motivation for attending but Rick Santelli was really the guy or figurehead to get that started.IRNlun6
