After the Southfork Ranch Fourth of July anti-government ‘tea parry’ was promoted on everything this side of Facebook — and on Facebook, a turnout of just 25-35,000 is clearly disappointing to Debbie Meyers and other promoters, as well as the people claiming media bias against the still-conservative (on its op-ed pages) Dallas Morning News.
The heat? 101F is not anywhere out of the norm for the Fourth of July in Dallas. Perhaps “tea partiers” have become soft and mushy due to conservative rot, compared to their “good old days” ancestors.
The Snooze came out too early? Eff you; a paper is not a PR organ and you can’t dictate at what time within an event it choose to come out.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
