Astroturf.

For those of you who do not know, astroturf is fake grass- it is widely used on football fields.
Now, many have called the Tea Parties a "grass roots" movement, roughly meaning that everyday Americans are the ones leading it and taking charge.

Well, U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently called the Tea Party movement "astroturf"...not grassroots. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P44q7Jt68DA]

Really, speaker Pelosi? Thousands of Americans coming together all over the country is fake astroturf? Thousands of Americans all speaking the same message is not considered grass roots?

Get in touch with America, Pelosi.
