It pays to throw a Tea Party: Business, politics merge for leaders

Mon Apr 26, 5:05 pm ET

Whatever ultimate political effect that Tea Party conservatism has on the country, one thing is increasingly clear: Being a high-profile leader of the small-government movement is very big business.

The movement's popular appeal stems from grass-roots outrage over the bailout of America's financial system, the expanded role of government, and the growing deficits. But the Tea Party has also been aggressively promoted by conservative media, political leaders and advocacy groups — and its broad appeal has  blurred the distinctions among the three.

A year into this fledgling political movement's life, reports are emerging of the huge money being made by Tea Party leaders. Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck are in front of the pack, but a few new faces and a few old faces are also getting into the game.

THE POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK - is that the pot is sooty (being placed on a fire), while the kettle is clean and shiny (being placed on coals only), and hence when the pot accuses the kettle of being black, it's the pot’s own sooty reflection that it sees: the pot {Tea Party} accuses the kettle {Obama Admin.} of a fault that only the pot has, From: wikipedia

The Tea Party Pot calling the Tea Kettle Black

Hypocrisy to the highest degree, the teabaggers are jumping up and down, faces red with rage and raising clenched fists at governmental spending. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, they rush to donate money to this, their darling movement (cult) and buy up Tea Party goodies, as quickly as they hit the retail shelves just to hear their leaders Palin, Beck, et al, spew forth hyperbolic propaganda and lies (misleading or outright mendacity).  Their motto TAKE AMERICA BACK... Yeah, back to the way it was before the Civil War. Wake up teabaggers you’re not Southern, you’re AMERICAN and the only thing the leaders of your movement are looking for is their bottom-line! thinkingblue
