Tea Party "Patriots" mostly silent about anti-American DREAM Act (and rightwing bloggers too) - 12/07/10
... (pajamasmedia.com/instapundit/111621) linking to Mickey Kaus but not suggesting any action people could take. Reynolds' post is from 2:15pm Eastern on Friday, not exactly enough time to make a lot of phone calls.
