"Some Americans believe the tea party is the noblest venture since the Sons of Liberty took to Boston Harbor; others think it's the most lunatic hodgepodge since the Mad Hatter and March Hare."

Well, count me among the former. I've got family roots in Memphis, and am happy to hear that the Tea Party is alive and well there.

That paper in the link looks amazingly like our local paper. From the typeset to the brainless “liberals” “progressives” “marxists” “socialists” “democrat” replies. They like to bask in the light of the word PROGRESSIVE, but they never say what we are progressing to. I only know that our country was nearly perfect in implementation for nearly a hundred years, and it has progressively gotten worse. That is REgression, maybe since they call us teabaggers, we should call them REGRESSIVES.

feral Jacksonian populism

The best description yet of the Tea Party.

You are a den of vipers and thieves. I intend to rout you out, and by the eternal God, I will rout you out! - Andrew Jackson to the banksters of that era.

Thanks GailA. He was the last president to be a Revolutionary War veteran. Orphaned at 14 by that war, Andrew Jackson went on to be a country lawyer in the pre-Tennessee Southwest Territory. He soon became the state's first U.S. senator, before resigning. He was also a judge on the Tennessee Supreme Court and commander of Tennessee's militia. Then, in 1819, with two other men, he founded Memphis. The Revolution. No ping, just adding. To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.
