Of course, if you hadn’t heard from big media, and most of both parties, the tea party is dead. Their half right from my perspective. I’m dead set, on sending their buts home, yes it will take time. I don’t really care.

My response (although I didn’t watch)

The federal government should not be doing your job, your city’s job, your county’s job, your states job... it should be doing only what the Constitution assigns it. When your country is bankrupt you do not expand the government, and have its least productive sector sucking up more wealth out of the economy. Government spending does not help the economy, it hinders it. It is called a mis-allocation of resources.

The government cannot spend its way out of debt. The government cannot tax our way to prosperity. The government is the least efficient entity to be doing anything other than the most basic role assigned to it: leave us alone to improve our own lives, to work our own jobs and for us to make our own decisions.

Only the Blaze carried it live. All networks ignored the Tea Party response to the Kenyan King. And that includes
Faux News.

Ron Paul was carried on CSPAN though. That’s something.

Amazing, isn’t it? Coolidge’s message still rings true. The only thing that has changed (dramatically off the scale) are the amounts.

He called $7.5 billion in federal spending an astounding sum.

He’d have a stroke today.
