PERP: Pissed Economically Responsible Producer. As opposed to a CLIC: Credit-Loving Irresponsible Consumer. Santelli hit a nerve, and the White House team responds like they did with Joe the Plumber:
OK: for those interested in going beyond verbally whining about the redistribution of mortage wealth from the responsible to the irresponsible, a number of protests are scheduled. Michelle Malkin’s list is probably as extensive as anybodys.
“My mortgage is killing me financially”. Excuse me: want to know how many mortgages worth of retirement income my family has lost?

The anti-producer socialism thet are implementing is only making things much worse, the market losing over 2,000 point as commentary to Obama’s actions.
They’re calling it a ‘Boston Tea Party’ movement, but I find that not quite appropriate. It is more along the line of a Kulak revolt; a revolt of the producers against irresponsible consumers. This type of revolt needs to expand and organize into effective political action. Primarily in getting opposing candidates into the primaries; the GOP is most amenable to this, to replace the fiscally irresponsible members and bolter the DeMints and the Sanfords of the world.
