Taxed Enough Already

[Chubminnow]

I've never been to one of these tea parties, nor do I know anyone that has, besides you, and you and I don't really know each other persay. Anyway, what sort of vibe do these tea parties have, are they like rallies or protests? I mean besides some of things brought up making your blood pressure go off the charts do things tend to get heated or what?

Chub, from what I have seen on TV and in the papers, these groups are not into "rabel rousing", they are just trying to get more people to stand up and be counted and to write letters and email their Congressmen, Senators and the President. That was definately the case last night. Altough the speaker got several rounds of applause and a standing overation at the end, the goup of about 175 or so were very well behaved. My blood pressure did go up when Moore started talking about the 64 Trillion in unfunded requirements. Talk about the media lieing by omission, you just don't hear about that and we should be thinking AND DOING SOMETHING about it.

Here's my excuse for not attending. After paying all my taxes, I didn't have the gas money for a trip to Hardin County.

I'm like 98% of the population of the U.S.A. I'll gripe and groan and wonder why somebody besides me isn't doing something to help me.

I did write my first donation check to a local politician this past week and I attended Baron Hill's town hall meeting at I.U.S. the other day. I never had a chance to get inside and was one of the crowd outside.

I hope we as a country can right some wrongs in the 2010 elections.

Sorry but there is good and bad in both parties. We talk about these folks not working to gether in DC and then we go vote a streight ticket! We need to vote OUT the bad ones and vote for whom we think is better no matter which party. We all need to do this to weed out the mess. Boath parties have good and bad. We all know this.

Like I posted two above your post I agree it's not one sided, I realize that. America needs to send a message and Poopcan all of them and start over. May not be any better but at least it would send a strong message.
