I mean can I buy a vowel here or what?
I think you have NAILED the agenda of the Tea Party. Issues oriented, decentralized leadership (at least in terms of no camera hogs / well-known faces) all in an effort to advance down the most logical path in American politics post 1800 - force the 2 parties to address your issues.
Sarah Palin, whose speech at the TN convention I watched on Fox, was very aware that the mainstream press and casual observers could deem here the "leader"; so in an effort to avoid that she several times went out of her way to point out, "this is a movement of issues we care deeply about, not leaders."
My favorite line was: "The Obama, Pelosi, Reid agenda is going to leave us less safe, in more debt and under the thumb of big government. That is out of touch, out of date, and if Scott Brown is any indication, running out of time."
Fun to watch indeed ... maybe even more fun to join!
And not to alarm anybody, but the 11th of February is just days away - this being the promised date that Ahmedadenajad says Iran will deliver a death blow to the West. In a completely unrelated story today news broke that the Iranian government has ordered their nuclear apparatus to enrich Uranium at a much higher grade. The Brits say it is a clear violation of UN resolutions. I think Israel is rapidly reaching a point of no return - this isn't a theoretical exercise to them.
