Charlie Grushow, one of the founders of the Tea Party of America, is the main organizer of today’s rally in Indianola which will be capped by a speech from former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

Grushow just spoke to the crowd, saying he was a proud Tea Party activist.  “We have enemies out there — the liberal left, the mainstream media…Over the next year until the election they’re going to talk dirty about us,” Grushow said. “They can tear me down, but my commitment is to America and the constitution and to freedom.”
