About that Tea Party convention… canceled

Posted by Raven on Sep 17, 2010 • (0)

Back in June we learned that the much hyped Tea Party Unity convention was being canceled and rescheduled to October 14-16 in Las Vegas. This barely registered a blip with the media at the time and I called them out on it and set the record straight on what this was really about.

We’re about a month out from their new announced date, and I thought I’d check them out and see how things were coming along.

Well my first stop was a Google search to find their web site. I found it, but this link should speak for itself. Check out nationalteapartyconvention.com. Oh you got a page not found error? Well there’s nothing wrong with your browser, the site doesn’t exist any more. And there’s absolutely zero media or blog coverage of the event since they announced the dates were changing. Not really what you’d expect for an event featuring Sharron Angle, Lou Dobbs, Joseph Farah, and Andrew Breitbart is it?

Well it gets better. I wanted to make sure the convention really was canceled and they weren’t just having web issues or neglected to do any PR for their event. So I put in a call to the Mirage hotel and asked if I could book a room in their block for the event. Turns out the room block had been canceled and the Mirage had no record of the event.

6. oh i don't underestimate them. i heard that people in delaware were surprised christine o'donell go

the nomination because they are all familiar with her bs out there. they didn't bother voting and they got her as the republican nominee. i have no doubt that underestimating the tea party candidates will be at our own peril. we may be laughing now, but it won't be funny if these idiots get into any position to effect our lives.

8. I AGREE WITH THE FIRST POSTER--
