"I guess I am sick and tired of people saying: "Why were these (TEA Party / Political Dissenter) people not complaining about things during the last 8 Republican years?" I have 2 answers.

FIRST, I was. The following website was published well before the last presidential election... USA VOTERS VOTE NO TO GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION THIS ELECTION  (This was my first major exercise at learning and using this new-fangled internet social media stuff for political communication.)

SECOND, Please gather round children and listen while I tell you that the internet did not always exist (OMG) In the Olden days, us old Geezers had rely upon the major media and the 2 Major Political powers to provide us the information from which we perceived reality.

Same question, why are not the Anti-war folks out in force over the civilians killed in Pakistan?  Just for the record many fiscal conservatives had been writing(complaining) about George Bush Bailouts and medicare drug plans during the last of his 4 years.  If you actually have attended a tea party the speakers often talk about the failures of the Bush Admin and the Republican congress.  The news doesn't report that component.  I have live streamed and reported on the Tea Party movement.  I have video that has each speaker talking about the issue of Bush admin and Republican lead congress issues.

Thanks for this story.  BTW the other comment was rhetorical and not directed toward you...

Exactly.


We are steered and controlled like slaughterhouse intake berth residents.

People say that politicians take polls to determine the direction that public policy should take, when in reality they are only double-checking to make sure they still get the right answer.

In total, we are gonna spend the better part of a $trillion dollars  in Iraq, regardless of whether we have a new plan to get out, and that certainly has had and will have as much impact on a belated American bankruptcy as Wall Street.

But, nothing was heard  --- wasn't on the agenda.

Please be strong and stand tall.

I don't need you to lead the charge, just back the most vocal of us patriots up

when we confront authority.

We must break the machine, before it rolls over us.

The politicians are starting to listen.  We can cull the heard at the next election.

Live free or die!
