Tea Party vs. Tea Party

In case you didn't hear, the Tea Party Patriots(TTP) are essentially suing the Tea Party Express(TTE). You see, one of the founders, Amy Kremer, of the more conservative TTP was forced out of the TTP and joined the more moderate TTE. The TTP filed suit against Kremer over an intellectual property dispute. When a person lives by the mantra, "you're either with us or against us," that person, like Kremer, has to be aware of what might happen when they're not "with them."

All this silliness about the Tea Party Patriots versus the Tea Party Express reminded me of this classic scene from Monty Python's Life of Brian:

Surprise, Surprise. Monty Python is Ahead of the Curve

They were revolutionary for their comedy. Now they're demonstrating that they're way ahead of the internet/YouTube curve. Below is the YouTube video by Monty Python announcing the launch of their own YouTube channel, oh, by the way the video is funny:



Their YouTube channel can be found at: http://www.youtube.com/montypython

They're ahead of the curve in doing this because, in my opinion, they're choosing the path of less resistance. They could go to court, sue, blah blah blah. Instead, they're putting up their own free site exposing their hilarious comedy (that still holds up) to new viewers. Plus, folks like me will still buy the DVD's for extras. And it's free advertising.
