While Palin is a Tea Party supporter, Beck does not endorse or align himself with them. Many in attendance were probably fromTea Party groups, but the rally was not a Tea Party event. It's interesting how this has been framed in advance as one.
I was a little put off by the religious theme, but felt the messages were consistently positive, stayed true to the theme -Faith, Honor and Charity. By the end of the rally, they had raised $5.5 million for the Special Operations Warrior Fund. The goal was $600k. An enormous amount of good was done today regardless of your opinion of Beck.
