If the media got it wrong, its because they have been misled.....let's face it, teabaggers are not the most honest people: That title poses a good question. Despite the fact that the Phillipses are hosting an event that nominally claims to be "the" national Tea Party convention, there is still no national organization, nor any head of the movement. It claims to have several founders. Dale Robertson, for instance, said he's been leading the Tea Party effort "longer than anybody else," having created the Web site teaparty.org a year before the first anti-stimulus Tea Parties began in 2009. Still, he doesn't begrudge the Phillips for claiming that his Nashville event is a national affair. "I mean, a name is just a name. It's just a marketing thing," Robertson said Wednesday from his home in East Texas. abcnews.go.com
