Hmmmmm... An article about "Tea Parties" and "conspiracy theories" and yet no mention of 9/11 truth. This was interesting.

'New World Order'
WorldNetDaily.com trumpets “exclusives” reporting that the Army is seeking “Internment/Resettlement” specialists. On ResistNet.com, bloggers warn that Mr. Obama is trying to convert Interpol, the international police organization, into his personal police force. They call on “fellow Patriots” to “grab their guns.”

Mr. Beck frequently echoes Patriot rhetoric, discussing the possible arrival of a “New World Order” and arguing that Mr. Obama is using a strategy of manufactured crisis to destroy the economy and pave the way for dictatorship.

At recent Tea Party events around the country, these concerns surfaced repeatedly.

In New Mexico, Mary Johnson, recording secretary of the Las Cruces Tea Party steering committee, described why she fears the government. She pointed out how much easier it is since Sept. 11 for the government to tap telephones and scour e-mail, bank accounts and library records. “Twenty years ago that would have been a paranoid statement,” Ms. Johnson said. “It’s not anymore.”

So supposedly the government is "evil" enough to create an international police force to "take our guns" but that same evil government won't put people in FEMA camps or stage terror attacks.

wow. Yes, very interesting read. I hate the stuff about Palin being a potential leader of the Tea Party movement.

In general, I think the purpose of the article is to make Obama supporters as worried about tea party activists as we are about them.

Yea, I cant think of a better way to completely destroy the movement than to put Palin into some sort of leadership position.
