(9,114 posts)He was involved with Rick Santelli's 'spur of the moment' tea-party launch:
"Within hours of Santellis rant, a website called ChicagoTeaParty.com sprang to life. Essentially inactive until that day, it now featured a YouTube video of Santellis tea party rant and billed itself as the official home of the Chicago Tea Party. The domain was registered in August, 2008 by Zack Christenson, a dweeby Twitter Republican and producer for a popular Chicago rightwing radio host Milt Rosenberga familiar name to Obama campaign people. Last August, Rosenberg, who looks like Martin Shorts Irving Cohen character, caused an outcry when he interviewed Stanley Kurtz, the conservative writer who first exposed a personal link between Obama and former Weather Undergound leader Bill Ayers. As a result of Rosenbergs radio interview, the Ayers story was given a major push through the Republican media echo chamber, culminating in Sarah Palins accusation that Obama was palling around with terrorists. That Rosenbergs producer owns the chicagoteaparty.com site is already weirdbut whats even stranger is that he first bought the domain last August, right around the time of Rosenburgs launch of the Obama is a terrorist campaign. Its as if they held this Chicago tea party campaign in reserve, like a sleeper-site. Which is exactly what it was."
