WHO AND WHAT IS THE TEA PARTY?

Many groups and organizations are working night and day to capture the heart, minds, and support of the Tea Party, but, who and what is the Tea Party? This is the question that is asked each day by those misinformed or those who’ve never taken time to actually understand what this movement is about. Frequently I am asked ‘exactly what is the Tea Party?’ Well, that answer depends entirely on who you ask.

The main stream media searches out the most absurd or fringe elements they can locate to associate the entire movement with that particular perspective. We have been considered or called fringers, tea baggers, extremists, domestic terrorists, racists, old white people, conspiracy theorists, and many other colorful expressions have been used to explain the phenomenon we call the Tea Party. None of those expressions are even remotely accurate. After traveling the country 3 times, attending several events in DC, and a few hundred Tea Parties I can say with all sincerity and honesty that the Tea Party consists of true, freedom loving Americans concerned about the state of their country and the state we are leaving it in for future generations.

The Tea Party is an organic movement that sprang into action after the massive bail outs of 2008. Citizens disgruntled by the aggressive over-reach of government into banks, auto companies, etc… (excessive taxes), then drawn into focus by the famous rant of Rick Santelli inviting Americans to a Tea Party in Chicago, the tea party sprang up.

Santelli’s Rant: Feb 2009

When we decided to re-brand Resistnet to Patriot Action Network we had discussed the opportunity to change our name and branding to something with Tea Party in the title. We chose to go a different direction because anyone can name themselves Tea Party and attempt to capitalize on the name and movement. That has never been our intention. We instead chose Patriot Action Network and I am glad. Click Here to See what Patriot Action Network stands for!

What makes us the Tea Party?
Our core principles are the glue that unites each of us in this movement. We may not all agree on everything but at the core of our beliefs is a common thread that every Tea Partier agrees with!

Core Tea Party Principles:

1. Limited Government

2. Fiscal Responsibility

3. Constitutional Governance

4. Free Markets

From there you will find as many different “Tea Party” sites and organizations as there are opinions!

DEMAND ERIC HOLDER’S RESIGNATION!

UPDATE: More than 50,000 have already signed the petition!

Attorney General, Eric Holder’s tenure has been pockmarked by deception, lies and inconsistencies, culminating in the botched “Fast and Furious” firearms sting that ran from September 2009, until December 2010 and saw U.S. officials “walk” more than 2,500 assault weapons into drug-infested corridors of Mexico, only to lose track of the guns. Tragically, those weapons have resulted in the deaths of hundreds of Mexicans and U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian A. Terry.

Dissatisfied with Holder’s lack of honesty, accountability over the “Fast and Furious” scandal as well as increasing public demand for answers, 40 Republicans sent a letter urging President Obama to ask for Holder’s resignation.

Obama discounted the letter and in fact, publicly endorsed Holder in hopes the issue would fade away. That hasn’t happened. Public pressure has continued to intensify, and now the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee has summoned Holder to testify on February 2.

Letter To Holder

+ + Grassroots Call to Action:

Action #1 — Sign The “Holder Must Go” Petition.

We already have more than 50,000 signers but we must rally 100,000 or more to let Congress know that citizens are watching this issue closely.

Action #2 – Fax Congress Now!

The Obama/Holder team is hoping these hearings will come and go with little attention on the scandal at DOJ. It is vitally important that every office on Capitol Hill know that citizens are demanding accountability.

Please take a moment right now to send your faxes directly to Congress today — so grassroots citizens can make as strong a case as possible that Holder must be held accountable!

Go here to schedule your faxes for immediate delivery:

Your faxes will be delivered immedaitely — while this high-profile hearing is still fresh on the minds of members of Congress.
