This one is different

An email from Jenny Beth Martin, Co-Founder and National Coordinator Tea Party Patriots using Cruz long talk for fundraising.

Senator Ted Cruz reenergize the conservative movement last night as only he could. We whole heartedly salute and thank him for his courageous stand.
...

Tea Party activists all across the country are contacting their Senators around the clock, demanding that they end this national nightmare by any means necessary

They're flooding these Senators' Facebook and Twitter pages with messages. They're filing their email inboxes. They're melting the phone lines on Capitol Hill!

now's not the time to celebrate
make a contribution
can't let up
must keep heat on
until very minute critical vote is cast
contribute again
changing quickly in Washington
online contribution is immediate
must continue pushing against upcoming cloture vote
Its the only hope.
please give.
donate

Interesting. Hyperbolic. Didactic. Annoying. Celebratory. Style problems no way can it be copy/pasted, they alway go crazy with all those buttons up there in editor underlining, italic, yellow highlighting, bold, some all at once. This is the first pleasantly pleased sounding email that I recall.

Can we change the name?

Lets call ourselves the:

The anti-leftwing, anti-statist,
anti-radical, anti-neo-fascist, anti-crony-capitalist, anti-corruption, anti-glitch, anti-bailout, anti-Harry Reid, pro-liberty, pro-small business, pro-tax payer, pro-transparency, pro-small government that works for the people rather than against the people - Party.

In defence of the tea parties.

These are no slick media savvy people, for the most part, these are people taking time off their busy lives, because they see something terribly wrong and they want to do something about it.

Admirable, all around.

Its a good thing they are not too slick or whatever. they might like it and become part of the problem democrats.

At least they're willing to fight.

And it sounds like the IRS abuse has just made them mad.

Gee, Chip. Why is it that these Tea Party posts don't seem to generate the enthusiasm and comments and participation that the posts on regular life generate? Music, news, psychology, pop culture, even Obama-hatred. All seem to captivate more attention than these updates. You can't be that new to political thought, can you?

It would just be such a shame to watch the exiles of Wisconsin's most infamous blonde follow in the footsteps of yet another artist who pretends to hate politics and yet can't stop talking about it.
