Tea Party: Us vs. the Elite

A remarkable register on the nation's radar, despite the MSM mostly ignoring or panning the citizen protests. Rasmussen poll:

Fifty-one percent (51%) of Americans have a favorable view of the “tea parties” held nationwide last week, including 32% who say their view of the events is Very favorable.

Thirty-three percent (33%) hold an unfavorable opinion of the tea parties according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. Fifteen percent (15%) are not sure.

While half the nation has a favorable opinion of last Wednesday’s events, the nation’s Political Class has a much dimmer view—just 13% of the political elite offered even a somewhat favorable assessment while 81% said the opposite. Among the Political Class, not a single survey respondent said they had a Very Favorable opinion of the events while 60% shared a Very Unfavorable assessment.

One-in-four adults (25%) say they personally know someone who attended a tea party protest. That figure includes just one percent (1%) of those in the Political Class.

Of course the vested interests try to portray us as low information voters, or worse. Hahahahaha. Who is out of touch? Who continually denies the reality of this crappy graph? We've got lyin eyes, yeah.More: Andrew Breitbart, Question Democratic Authority? Not!
