The Un-Silent Majority Chicago Tea Party
February 19th, 2009 at 12:51 pm by Preston Taylor Holmes
We are not alone.
UPDATE:
Karl at The Market Ticker is behind Rick Santelli’s Chicago Tea Party. I’ll drive up to Chicago for that one as well. Just say when, Rick.
While you’re at The Market Ticker, you should definitely read this post.
If you measure “prosperity” by stock prices we’re somewhere back in 1997 or 1998. But if the entirety of these two bubbles were fraud-driven (and they were) then a realistic expectation is that we will not only return to 1995 stock prices (about ~450 on the S&P 500) but we will over-correct significantly because the debt that this fraud created still remains in the economy!
That could easily cut the S&P in half again, which puts my 210 “oh God” print on the table, no?
Let’s be clear here: There is no way out of this box, and the corruption and fraud have permeated every corner of our financial, media and governmental systems.
Read the whole thing or face certain doom.

We should hit David Burke’s Primehouse before we get our Obama slips. Polish it off with a Sunday morning visit to Trinity United. Liveblog, natch.

I guess Chicago is the site of Prickfest 2009. Somebody call Vinnie, quick!

How insufferable do I have to be to attend Prickfest? I’m willing to give it my all, I just don’t kow what standard I must reach. Please advise.

I have a feeling you’d qualify. If this thing gets off the ground, there should be room for anyone/everyone who might be interested in making the trek.

I’m finally insufferable enough. My hubby may be too. The pricklets may be a little too insufferable though, so I may drop them in Nashville with the grand prix.
To be among proud conservatives who’ve decided not to go quietly down the drain of socialism, and to see the fireworks on the 4th of July in Chicago, land of the Obama Mafia, would be too historic (and ironic)to miss.

Prickfest? Did someone say “Prickfest”?
I’m there, dude.
Oh…and Laurie? I hope you take the advise of those blog wizards over at Ask and Ye Shall Receive and add some sidebars. You know, some really bitchin’ ones that they will ooh and aah at.
