GET READY FOR A FIGHT.
It was supposed to be a short phenomenon. A group of “racists” who opposed the president for no reason other than their deep seeded hatred of minorities. They called themselves the Tea Party, and they were violent, irrational, and dim witted. At least this was the meme that was pushed by the mainstream media at the behest of the talking points distributed by the Democrat party and progressives hell bent on minimizing the impact of the first grass roots conservative uprising in recent memory.
Fortunately for the Tea Party and America, the media, as they are wont to do, underestimated the power of citizen journalists, bloggers & new media. The result of the actions by this “irrelevant fringe” was nothing less than a smack down in the 2010 elections.
The left seems to have gotten the message, and they’re pushing back against spending cuts like their lives depended on it … Which is how one would guess they view it.
But the fight against over reaching government and irresponsible spending was not an anti-Obama fight. It was not merely a federal fight. This problem of bargaining our futures for a consequence free lifestyle has invaded every single state in the country. And it’s time for the Tea Party to stand up as we did in 2009 and say we’ve had enough.
We need to go toe to toe with these government Unions and big government politicians. And when the media ignores us, we need to press forward, pull out our cameras, and do the job they’ve been failing at for 40 years.
This Tea Party ain’t over yet.
