Well after 35 weeks of exploring the conspiracy theory, COUP D’ETAT, I did wonder how I could keep Conspiracy Theory Wednesday an ongoing segment of my blog. I never thought it would be easy UNTIL I thought about the Tea Party and some of the strange and wondrous ideas it embraces. A quick Google search revealed a bunch of articles written on that very subject and written by people far more educated and knowledgeable than me and published in well-known and respected magazines and newspapers.
Let’s see how far I can go with this, maybe only a couple weeks… we’ll have to see how it plays out. I don’t know if I have any readers who identify with the Tea Party and partially that’s because I, like everyone else I personally know, thinks they’re a fringe group of crazies, that the whole idea of the movement is ludicrous and they can be laughed off. NOT-that’s a dangerous attitude on my part and others. So maybe posting the articles will be helpful to everyone, believers and non-believers alike. Because up to this point, the only tea parties I like to go to serve Black Oolong or Lemon Ginger AND scones with clotted cream.
Here’s one from Newsweek published in February ’10. I won’t know what you think unless you comment or send me an email.
