The TEA parties were a FAIL of epic proportions.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So... when George Soros buys a war protest, it is a genuine grassroots effort.

If people start organizing Tea Parties, and someone shows up and starts selling hot dogs, it&#039;s AstroTurfing.

It could only be a grassroots effort if thousands of people spontaneously and mysteriously converge on places holding signs. They must all come to the idea independently and simultaneously. Interesting bar height you&#039;ve set.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sean,Sean,Sean

savetherich appears to be nothing but liberal whining because the rest of us have a winning strategy.  What started out as a grass roots effort wound up getting support from political groups.  As if you progressive/socialist don&#039;t do the same thing.  These socialist sites attempting to diminish the work of the honest citizens who partook in the protest is pathetic at best.]]></description>
