Tea Party vs Wall Street, Big Business, NSA

"The media used to love to say that politicians were worthless because they were controlled by Wall Street," said Idaho GOP Rep. Raul Labrador at a Heritage Foundation-sponsored forum this week. "They were controlled by business. They were controlled by special interests.

The only group that has stood up to Wall Street, to the special interests, to the big businesses, has been the Tea Party.  (Also the NSA and DOD cuts -ed).

For the last two weeks, I've read about that in your papers, but it has been in a derisive manner. We are uncontrollable-because Wall Street can't control us. We are uncontrollable because business can't control us.

Instead of praising that, that which the American people have been waiting for for the last 200 years, politicians listening to the people instead of the ruling class, you guys have been writing about that in a derisive manner. I think that's really sad."  (really bad journalism)

Editor.  Tea Party leader Justin Amash (R-Michigan) has called for DOD cuts and NSA reform. 
He also led the fight against Obama's rush to bomb Syria, Yemen, Mali. 
Progressives can ally with Justin on NSA, DHS, Patriot Act, Syria, Yemen, et al
Just not on our divisive Obamacare.  (He's young, and not thinking
about retirement yet)
