Last week, at the 5th anniversary celebration of the birth of the Tea Party movement in Washington DC, patriots from around the country gathered to celebrate the dramatic ways in which they have changed the course of the national conversation since the onset of the Obama presidency.
The birthday bash was held one week before the Conservative Political Action Conference, which bills itself as the largest annual gathering of conservatives in the nation.  However, CPAC has come under fire from some conservatives for promoting moderate speakers and allowing groups such as GOProud and American Atheists to attend and even have booths at the event.
MRCTV's Dan Joseph was there and asked some of the attendees if they thought that CPAC was a good representation of the conservative movement.
