The rest of us, possessed of the faculty of sight and reluctant to suffer any wool-pulling, know better.

Well, if a conservative columnist at WND like Larry Elder says Obama is a socialist.....it must be so.

all of the above run by lobbyists with corporate interests at their very core have funded many Tea Party events

Those not funded by the above have been funded by the Koch Family Foundation - ultra libertarians with a free market agenda

Then of course you have Hannity and Beck and Fox News aggressively promoting the Tea Party not simply reporting on it

and of course....Sarah Palin
