"Mr. President: You Can Run, but You Can't Hide" - this website scares me
/snip

Looking around the blogosphere and various news sites, there seems to be some question as to how many people actually showed up for the Great American Tea Party II. Unfortunately there weren’t any webcams or cell phones back in the day of the original staged revolt, so we can’t do a comparison with that first group. However, someone with a bent for good history research could probably tell us how the colonists’ newssheets were spinning the story versus what the word was back in King George’s general vicinity regarding the reports.

One thing is for sure: there would have been no Tea Party II to protest our slide into socialism. Government intrusion would already be an accomplished fact and we’d be, one and all, polite citizens of Her Majesty’s North American Commonwealth (except for those noisy French Québécois over in the corner).

But the tea has been spilled for the second time now. And just like the first demonstration, there is no undoing this action; for those who have escaped, there is no going back to the sheeple fold where government is your friend.

All the major blogs, left and right, covered the march of the tea-baggers on Washington. The first noises happened so long ago - back in February - that it’s hard to remember those beginnings, but those of us who heard that first volley in the video with Rick Santelli were immediately energized:

1. Everybody is a freaking nutcase!!! Sometimes I just wanna scream.
BUT, if you find anyone making threats to Obama or Biden, report 'em to as high up and as many authorities as it takes inorder to get them to take action against these nuts.
