This whole thread has made me way more aware of why, probably without vocalizing it, progressive / liberal / communist / democrats attack anything that remotely appears to become organized. When the Tea Party started, we attended the first (maybe the only) rally in New Haven, CT. We were absolutely blown away by the negative, hateful, lying press coverage. The left tore the Tea Party to shreds before it even got going and then barry soetoro had his irs friends lois learner, john koskinen and others target conservative Groups to prevent them from organizing. This site is valuable.
