The Tea Party is all about idle unemployed people!

That’s the NYTimes’ big discovery:

Tom Grimes lost his job as a financial consultant 15 months ago, he called his congressman, a Democrat, for help getting government health care.

Then he found a new full-time occupation: Tea Party activist.

In the last year, he has organized a local group and a statewide coalition, and even started a “bus czar” Web site to marshal protesters to Washington on short notice. This month, he mobilized 200 other Tea Party activists to go to the local office of the same congressman to protest what he sees as the government’s takeover of health care.

I can tell you from experience; having a hobby helps when you’re out of work.

And it’s a fact that Obama’s policies are making an awful lot more people unemployed.

But I’ll tell you what: when I speak at the 4/15 Tea Party at the Capitol, I’ll ask how many are unemployed, and how many are working but not looking forward to getting financially flensed by Obama’s tax orgy.
