Midknight Review -- new and revised: Far from being over, the tea-party movement is alive and well in the U.S.of A. with NOTHING similar as a Leftist opportunity.

There are some 800 active tea-party groups. Counting members, friends and family associated with this grassroots movement, we have close to 40 million folks involved with the tea-party or supportive of its efforts. (compare this to the 40,000 anarchist - at its peak - who identified with Occupy). The tea-party has elected 56 congressmen, 6 senators, and 754 state and local officials.

Occupy has elected no one and has not changed "the nature of the national debate" on wit. Van Jones and Elizabeth Warren intended Occupy to be a third national party, "progressive - collective" in its goals and Marxist in terms of its philosophical sensitivities and justification. The “convention” was to be held in June of 2012, and was to have representatives from all 50 states. The fact that this fantasy was a total failure is evidence of the fact that America is not ready for this kind of political nonsense.

The Left desperately want Occupy to have equivalency with the tea-party, but 40 thousand is hardly a comparison to 40 million, not to mention the demonstrable fact that the tea-party continues to influence elections, while Occupy has devolved into a smattering of kids bent on raising hell and committing random acts of violence.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
