This looks like an entertaining thread, as was the Schiff video, but this was so funny I had to copy:
the media invented the tea party from a few coordinated efforts among a handful of people to yell and scream and project their anger out. they called in the media promising them "fireworks". The tea party was born of about 20 people
20 people flipped the House in 2010. And the Senate. 1000 local seats got flipped. By 20 people.
Not much more over there, as the subject seems rather painful.
