The Tea Party movement, Wall Street’s best friend

http://trueslant.com/sahilkapur/2010/05/04/the-tea-party-movement-wall-streets-best-friend/

Did anybody catch this? Given how much news coverage the tea partyers receive it’s a bit surprising no one seemed to notice that the Tea Party Nation is bashing the financial reform bill:

Yet Tea Party Nation has made it clear that its base of activists will not support what they call a permanent bailout. They allege that the bill funds government takeovers of banks.

“While the liberals were able to take over 1/6 of the economy with health care, they are now trying to take over the remaining 5/6 with ‘financial reform’ legislation,” the tea party e-mail continues.

1. They fail to ask -Why are the financial firms running 5/6 of the economy?

of course not-they weren't told to ask that

BTW- the financial firms have 1/3 of the corporate profit. That is too much but as usual the teabaggers don't have time for details they have signs to make
