I amazed how this article displays such obvious racism as a "feel good" story. Would it be seen the same if someone was only shopping at "white" businesses? Not a chance. Sickening.

You know. . .my first reaction to this thread was to jump on the "let's get 'em" band wagon. I even posted in the thread with my own two cents on how we might go about it. Then it occurred to me. The Media is not the monolithic power we tend to give them credit for being. Then I thought, hey wait a minute, why should we give them ANY attention at all. We don't want to legitimize what is obviously a group of failing organizations that if left alone will eventually implode without any help at all from us. No. Anything we do against them will only strengthen them. We need to ignore them until they go away. And they will.
What we need to do is continue to focus on saving our country through repairing our broken government. To do that, we continue to talk to THEM, because if we leave the government alone, it too will implode. Our only hope is to save this ailing government monolith from itself by forcing it to work for us again.
Let the media work things out on their own. We can't afford not to focus on the government.

I think we should choose a single sponsor for the letter writing and phone calling and maybe even demonstrating campaign. We should make an example out of one so that the others will sit up and take notice. We are large enough now to be noticed. The only question is. . .. who'd the biggest mainstream media supporter we can tackle? We don't want to take on any battles we can't win at this early stage, so we might want to start a little smaller. . .. not sure how to proceed, but it sounds like a great direction to take.

Today's the day. Get up. . do out. .. and make yourself heard. This matters. Good luck to all. The news coverage in the next 15 hours or so will sure be interesting to see. Don't forget. This is only the start. No matter how they spin it --- no matter how much they try to paint us into a corner -- no matter how it gets twisted --- keep going. If we hold steady and never go away and never give up, they'll have to listen. More people will join us. .. then the silent majority (us) will finally be the force we always new we could be.

So cheer. .. chant . . .be seen. . .and keep up the good fight. It's about time. Wow this feels good.

It won't work. Maybe he'll spin for now, but this is just the beginning. They can't deny us forever.

In our area, we're having two tea parties. One is a apparently a sham put on by the Republican party including an actual congressman (a guy who we need to be shouting at) to be speaking. Fortunately, there is another that looks a little more like it is in the spirit of what these parties intend to be. I'll be at the latter. In any case, I wanted to share this link I found that really demonstrates what kind of opposition we are up against as this movement progresses.

Unbelievable!

I guess it was inevitable that the conspiracy people would want to ride the wave that the rest of us have created. I suppose they can come along. I just wish they would sit in the back of the car and keep their mouths shut. Some of them (like this guy) should go back down into their mothers' basements and continue watching their X-files DVD collections and leave us sane people alone.

I couldn't agree more. We have to do all we can to NOT let them paint us as unruly kooks. They are darn sure going to try. Here in Pensacola, it's already rumored that our Tea Party may be hijacked by the conspiracy crowd. I pray we outnumber them with such great numbers that they can't get a word in edgewise.

In music, crescendo refers to a loud climax in a musical piece. It's the highpoint that usually occurs before the inevitable decrescendo or fading of the music. I meant crescendo. I fear we may be looking at a climactic event that will be followed by a fading of enthusiasm. I sure hope I'm wrong about that.

I have this nagging fear that the coming tea parties are going to be the crescendo of this movement rather than the beginning of something that really makes a difference. Is anyone else feeling this? What's the next step? I for one, am ready for the march on Washington. My wife and I have made a commitment that when the call comes, we will be there. We will give up vacation plans if we have to so that we can do this. We will lose valuable time at work if needed. We will sacrifice as necessary. It's that important. I hope others have the same perspective. It's going to have to be larger than the Tea Parties. They can't be allowed to be the grand finally that I fear they may be.

So I ask again. .. what's next?
