Enter the Echo Chamber


Last week I showed you a clip from CNBC reporter Rick Santelli, in which he called for a taxpayer revolt -- a "tea party" of sorts. What's happened since?

Try googling "Santelli tea party" and see what you get. You get a lot, is what you get. Most of it supporting Santelli -- a lot of it very angry.

(By the way, don't get too excited about the one that says Santelli was arrested by the EPA. That one's a joke, I think. Consider the source!)

I Blame Obama and the do-nothing democrats for the housing failure, this recession had NOTHING to do with the concept of deregulating neccessities in a capitalistic government. Only goes to show that no matter how well a system may work, its a piece of crap when you throw the fallability of greed and stupidity into the works.
