Lou Dobbs to Speak at Tea Party Convention II
On Monday, Tea Party Nation announced their choice of headliner for the July Tea Party Unity Convention --Lou Dobbs. Media Matters is calling the entire convention Birther-palooza, but in all fairness, the 'Birther' craze did get more media attention thanks to Dobbs and his CNN show. If you’re scratching your head wondering why talk of a second convention seems a bit early, it was only in February when supporters of the Tea Party Movement gathered in Nashville for their first ever national convention—but Tea Partiers always said that they planned on holding more than one convention a year. The July convention will be held in Las Vegas at the Palazzo resort and this time it’s been expanded and made less expensive to duck some of the criticism about its cost. So why a second convention so soon? The convention web site says, “The timing for this country is crucial. As we head into the fall elections, we must be united in our opposition to the Obama/Pelosi/Reid axis of fiscal evil. Come work with your fellow patriots to help save our country.”
