2. Dick Armey is trying to create a conservative version of Move On.org

He started this before the election and is funding the process using typical rw contributors.

3. I heard Ron Paul started it, and the repigs/conservatives stole

their idea, what else is new? I will be glad when this day is over.

4. Wonkette had a post yesterday or the day before

Saying there was fighting in the Teabagger ranks because of Paulists claiming they were being ripped off of their idea. I don't know any more about it, but your husband could be right. Clearly once it was picked up the RWers ran with it.

5. The racists started it.

That pretty much covers everyone involved.

11. I thought it was the crybaby from CNBC

The one complaining about homeowners getting a bailout too. He started ranting about a tea party but I don't know if he created the concept or if he referenced what was already created.

13. He's just exploiting it. Funny thing...

The DC tea bagging couldn't get the necessary permits to dump their tea bags, so the Libertarian party had them come to their offices for a tea bag dumping. So all these efforts of the GOP are being siphoned off by loony third parties.
