To all of you that participated in yesterdays TEA Parties that are disappointed in the lack of impact portrayed in the MSM today, please stand tall, you are making your presence known! The way the MSM works is when it comes to something they can't understand or they're afraid of, they will either ignore, mock, or discredit it. Judging from what we've seen in the past 24 hours, the MSM is afraid of what this so-called 'non-grassroots movement' is doing. We're gaining momentum, and they can't stand it!

   Think about it, they're potraying Us as a bunch of clueless boobs who didn't know about the sexual connotation of "Teabag". They're the ones who can't fathom that Middle America can organize something like this without help. They just assume "The GOP Elite" are behind this movement, because it's easier for the "Media" to retain their Power (what there is of it). See, Politicians and the Media don't possess any real Power, we loan it to them. When the MSM imply that Fox News and the GOP are the real Force behind the TEA Parties it makes them feel better, because thay can control this type of dissent. The reality is, we have the Power, and it's about damn time we used it.

   It may not look like it now, but we've got their attention, now we have to push them into a corner. Continue standing on your Principals, it's our best Offense, only Fools and Drones argue against common sense. Honor is still as relevant Today as it was when our Founding Fathers were drafting the Constitution, use it, don't stoop down to their level. Be civil, polite, and allow them to voice their opinion (now matter how asinine it may be), and counter it with what you believe is the Truth.

   I realise that it's harder to find the Truth in these days with so much information thrown at you once, and sometimes you just don't have the time filter through all the crap to find it. You have to remember though, the fundamental problem with 'The Media', is that they will show you only what They want you see. The Truth has been replaced by Perception these days, the burden of proof falls on our shoulders to verify what we're being fed is real. This is easier to do than you may think, if it feels Right to you, then it is. To quote Kid Rock:

         If it looks good, you'll see it.

         If it sounds good, you'll hear it.

         If marketed right, you'll buy it.

         But...If it's Real, you'll feel it.

 

   Until next time, keep your eyes wide open and your ears to the ground,
