Working Families, ACORN and Media Crash Tea Party
Posted in ACORN, AIG, Working Families on March 23rd, 2009 by John H – Be the first to commentThe Working Families Party, ACORN, and media teamed up for a little AIG outrage party while 300 people were forced to have a quiet Tea Party not too far away.
Last week I wrote about how the Connecticut Working Families party was staging an outrage tour of the homes of some of AIG’s executives. Maybe, ACORN is just practicing for the 2010 Census but they decided to join in on the outrage. Not surprisingly, every media outlet was notified of the little party and showed up in force outnumbering the “activists” three to one.
Meanwhile elsewhere in Connecticut, about 300 people staged a Tea Party protesting taxation, increased government spending and the “little” bailouts that lie at the heart of the AIG scandal. Media coverage was clearly preoccupied.
Despite that these tea parties are springing up all across the nation in growing numbers, they receive very little national coverage. It makes you wonder how far the average person will be forced to go just to get some attention… maybe throw Barney Frank or Chris Dodd a house party?
