way to restore our Constitution. April 19th is the date for a

site.
Keeping Close to Our Enemies
It is important to know who the enemies of the Tea Party Effort are
Organized Labor Leadership are major contributors to Patriot Majority
West and Patriot Majority who funded the Site set up by The American
Public Policy Committee TheTeaPartyIsOver.org
whose self declared mission is to "prevent Tea Party's ideas from
gaining legislative traction". Check the distortions on this union
funded site--we've got them really worried. Union members can be our
friends because their leadership is taking the unions down with the
companies the Union leadership destroyed. Union members know it.
