Teabaggers Prepare To Strike Out

The Teabaggers are organizing a national day of strike to protest the Washington money machine. The irony is lost on them, of course, since they are run by Dick Armey's FreedomWorks lobbying group.
Some Tea Party activists from across the country are planning a 'national strike' on January 20, the one-year anniversary of President Barack Obama's inauguration.

The idea of holding an economic protest sprung up during the holidays as the result of a conference call held by various Tea Party group leaders, according to Allen Hardage, a conservative grassroots organizer from Georgia.

"Tea Party activists are frustrated that despite a huge turnout over the last year Congress is ignoring them," says Hardage, who is national operations director for the planned strike. "The question is that if the elected officials ignore you, what do you do to exercises your right to self-governance? So we decided to hold a National Day of Strike where we go after the large donors of the people pushing this radical agenda."
Yes, I'm sure irony is dead.  Completely dead.  Only one problem...the rest of the Baggies seem...less than eager for this one.
CNN reached out to a number of national Tea Party organizations. While some were aware of the planned strike and some not informed, none said they were going to actively take part in the event.
Of course not.  Teabaggers have to work for a living, son. Who's brilliant idea was to go on strike, anyway?

[UPDATE 9:54 AMBobo argues that the Tea Party movement will define the Teens, for good or for bad...especially if there's a double dip recession or a terrorist attack.

I hate to agree with the man ever, but he's right.  These idiots aren't going anywhere anytime soon.  They are the New Know-Nothing party.
