God is Great, Beer is Good, People are Crazy...
As someone who attended every Tea Party rally in DC, I have been thinking about what it means. I believe the pundits and the political and media elites have it wrong. They do not understand the depth of the movement. It is not just about stopping Obama, although that is part of it. It is also about reversing Obamacare, but it is more than that.
When the Congress and the President passed the stimulus, bailed out the banks and car companies and passed Obamacare, all against the will of the American people, folks got angry and they got scared. The tea party is about making sure that never happens again by restoring a proper Fed/State balance. That will not happen in two years.
But it is not just about stopping and reversing Obama and restoring balance to the government. I would venture to say that every tea party member would VOW to vigilantly watch the government, every day, for the rest of their lives to make sure we arent slipping.
And not just that. I would further venture to say that each tea party supporter will not only watch but will teach their children and grandchildren to watch. We will train them up to be vigilant. We will tell them stories of stimulus and take overs and power grabs and how we almost lost our country.
But that is not all. We will train our children and grandchildren to train their children and grandchildren so that we may never face this risk again.
So, you see, this is not a two year plan. It is a long term plan and it is not just Federal, it is deep down to the local levels. The establishment politicians have no idea what they unleashed when they ignored the will of the people and tried to impose their will on the rest of us.
Lou Barletta is a good man. The folks of PA made the right choice in dumping Kaj, who is a POS.
GRRRRRRRREAT!
