Ron Paul, Rand Paul, tea party and the ORP

The militant Ron Paul supporters, who challenged Russ Walker's position on the Convention Platform Committee, do not like the article below because this only further confirms Rand Paul, who is working with FreedomWorks, "can't be trusted because he sold out".

Paul strives for common ground with tea party

SEIU funds new Anti-Tea Party Website

It has just come to my attention that there is a new website out there called:

The Tea Party Is Over (Click for website)

Here is a quote from the front page:
Our Strategy is simple. This movement is a fad. Some of their ideas include the belief that programs like Social Security and Medicare are socialistic and should never have been created in the first place and that President Obama is a Socialist. Other ideas include undermining the legitimacy of the federal government in favor of a radical rightwing form of state’s rights. We need to prevent their dangerous ideas from gaining a legislative foothold. So our strategy is to spread the truth about their dangerous ideas and prevent their policies from taking root in America.

Now I have no problem with the left having their little website, it's the group that is funding it that I have a problem with!
The site is paid for by The American Public Policy Committee. According to Open Secrets dot org, their two donors are Patriot Majority and Patriot Majority West. However, the second largest contributor in 2008 to Patriot Majority was the SEIU and other powerful unions. I have outlined the donations below:

I wonder if the diversion of union money is acceptable to the union members or heck, if the members even know about it?

Will You Join Us On April 15th for a Tea Party?

On April 15th, millions of Americans, all over the USA will be gathering at state capitols, courthouses, city halls and other places to protest the bad government decisions that are drowning us in debt! Putting federal taxpayers on the hook for trillions of dollars borrowed from the international community is morally wrong and fiscally irresponsible. Putting state taxpayers on the hook for billions of bonded debt to pay for immediate and temporary gratification is just plain stupid. Sound off LOUDLY and clearly on the steps of the Capitol so that everyone inside can hear your protest and disapproval!

Here in Salem, we are OFFICIALLY going to have OUR Tea Party starting at 11am with a march with signs and banners and horns and tea bags, and march around the State Capital building, and then at 12 noon a program begins which will include myself and other media members "whipping the crowd up" and introducing Conservatives who BELIEVE that we can TAKE AMERICA BACK!
I would personally like to invite the readers of this blog to register and take part in this event. It's not JUST a protest, it is a chance FOR ONCE FINALLY, for ALL conservatives whether, Republican, Independent, Libertarian or whatever you call yourself, to come together as one and show the liberals in Congress, the Oregon Legislature and the White House that WE SURROUND THEM!
