I'm still confused as to what exactly they will be doing at Santelli's Tea Party?

The original patriots of the Boston Tea Party disguised themselves as 'wild indians.'

We should disguise ourselves as a bunch of greedy CEOs. :D

I'm not sure what's up with the Tea Party either, but I AM interested. I haven't been to the RP Forums in a while, but swung by today just to check on this issue.

Organization of a protest does seem like something the Ron Paul supporters could drive... if we could generate a "Money Bomb" fervor over this, then enlist all of the other Americans who are angry... geez. That could be one big heap 'o folks.

What about the idea of a mass "skip a mortgage payment" month as a form of protest? The point being: why be responsible when Obama and the Thieves are intent on stealing our money to reward irresponsibility so they can buy votes and advance their personal interests like Blagojevich?

You know, in this day and age, when a ten year old can have a rss blog/vlog up and running in 30 minutes-no coding required-the phrase, "Official Website Launched" just doesn't have that ring to it where I get all excited to check it out.

Pissing and moaning.

Where are all the female leaders? Maybe we could have like a "Legend of Billie Jean" type.

Depending on where it's headed and what the economy will more than likely do, I'd really like to go to this thing.

I just hope there aren't violent protesters who would go. . . although, I'm sure there will be a few there to make everyone look like crazy fanatics and not peaceful demonstrators. By that time, though, I'm sure anyone who even looks in that direction will be considered a terrorist.

I voted yes but come to think of it, hell no! Tea is expensive.

People were desperate for a leader back during the 2008 election year. People who want a "leader" are sheep to great orators. Hitler was a great orator. I think it's time for the people to do the leading. Presidents are supposed to be leaders and look where it's gotten us following an individual instead of what we believe in.

We should find the violent protesters and beat the crap out of them.

And put it on youtube.

Go get some "Great Value" tea at Wal-Mart. Save money. Save America. ^_^

But how to organize without leaders. What is the minimum amount of leadership/organization that is necessary to have a boiler-plate for intelligent, strategic and collective action.

True leaders evolve from people who have learned to follow.

(of course, it helps to know what you're following :))

We need 'representatives' more than 'leaders,' at this point.

I follow people on twitter.

Good point. We need a patriot funded nationwide citizen journalism network, where we have dialogs with supposed representatives of the people.

George Washington was a great leader. He was asked to lead.

No. They are desperate for freedom and liberty.
