The Old ‘Bait And Hook” Ploy

Did I miss something?  Apparently, when I fell asleep the whole country got a lot more stupid while I slept.  I am talking about the Teabag protests that is being called for on April 15th.

The likes of the Newt, Dickey Armey, and their lobbyists buds are leading a new tax protest.  Basically they want to protest the increase of taxes, but the taxes they are protesting are the taxes of GW and the increases of the Obama Admin on the wealthy are still 10% lower than those of the Reagan years.

The impotent GOP and its dark minions have failed miserably to punch holes in the Obama plan for the economy, so they have reverted back to an age old ploy, the bait and hook, and are using the tired subject of taxes as the bait.  This could very well bite them in the ass just as the 11th hour personal attacks on Obama did in the last election.  The hook is the misinformation that the leaders of this organized spontaneity are spreading hoping that guest speakers like Joe da Plumber will help push.

We will see just how successful the GOP “grassroots envy” is and if the dinosaurs pushing it can use their new found resources properly.
