    They say that imitation is the most sincerest form of flattery.

    Well, imitating pretty much sums up all that they can do.

    coffee

    Fed up by the success of the T.E.A. Party movement, former NY Times writer and Obama Zombie Annabel Park <STRIKE>ripped off</STRIKE>
    ,created their own movement for people who do not subscribe to the T.E.A. Party philosophy: Coffee Party USA.

    Claiming that government is "not the enemy of the people, but the expression of our collective will, and that we must participate in the democratic process in order to address the challenges we face as Americans," the good folks from the Coffee Party stand for...well, according to their official "About Us" page, they don't really stand for anything, except for democracy (a.k.a. two wolves and a sheep sitting down to decide what they want for dinner).

    And how have they done so far, you might ask?

    Well, they got write-ups in the usual places.

    BBC.

    NPR.

    NY Times.

    But did you know that they had their first "big" rally just yesterday, March 13th?

    And how did their 141,000 Facebook Fans fare?

    Well, according to CNN; out of the 350 "Coffee Parties" planned, turnout ranged anywhere from 30 to at most 60 attendees.

    "Air America" - Part 2, anyone?

    "not the enemy of the people, but the expression of our collective will..."

    Shouldn't we have a majority of people in favor of socialized medicine before it is called the expression of our collective will?  These idiots cannot even get the notion of majority rules correct, as if our country was founded on that old chestnut.  

    My head hurts.
