Here's a link to his poll...
CNBC's Rick Santelli leads the trader mortgage revolt. Would you want to join his "Chicago Tea Party?"
http://www.cnbc.com/id/29283701

91% said Yes out of over 68,400 poll-takers

93% now. Of course that's representative of those that support him in principle not the one that would actually do the deed.

What product?  Which harbor?  And are there any suggestions for updating the costuming?

I think it really is gaining ground, I am seeing more and more movie's which have at least a underlining hint of some of the issues going on with the world right now...

The Day the Earth Stood Still (how we are destroying the earth)
Australia (the monopoly issue and bad treatment of aboriginal people of Australia (like rabbit proof fence but from different side))
Blindness (people being put in FEMA type camps)
Slumdog Millionaire (shows the mistreatment and hard life of people in 3rd world countries)
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (shows Jews in concentration camps and how we are all people)
Swing Vote (shows how politicians don't really have any morals when it comes to being voted in)
Flash of Genius (shows how corporations will steal ideas from people)
Body of Lies (shows how there is other parties in 3rd world countries doing there best to influence the country to benefit the corps and US)
Defiance (shows Belarussian people standing up against the Germans by hiding out in the woods)
Pride and Glory (shows the corruption inside the police department and how some police are getting paid by the "bad guys")
Lakeview Terrace (again shows police corruption and how the thin blue line likes to protect it's own)
Eagle Eye (a little out there, but still shows some of the consequences of a orwellian type police state)

These all came out in 2008/09 and when you compare it to the amount of liberty type videos from the previous years we are really seeing a bigger increase even if sometimes it's just a "hint of liberty" or a underlining of liberty it is more movies than we have had in a long time with even that. Hopefully these movies especially IMO Body of Lies and Pride and Glory and to some extent Eagle Eye will make people more scared of a police state.

In the vid he suggests derivatives. We can toss them off Navy Pier into Lake Michigan.
