I attended the TEA party on 9/12 and was truly touched by the solidarity of common citizens coming together to voice their concerns over the problems arising from government intrusion into their lives. Mrs. Pelosi is wrong. These are not paid protesters or "astroturf," It was indeed run by grass roots organizations. There as a genuine outpouring of emotion in memorializing the events of 9/11, and various speakers on various subjects relating to the prevailing movement in Washington towards bigger government. If I had one critique, that would be the attendance of groups more concerned with gun rights and abortion than the true message of the TEA party movement. Make no mistake here... these are good causes (I'm a member of the NRA)... but I felt those are protests for another day. I also feel that those causes will dry up once the US returns to its Constitutional roots.
