In all seriousness these tea parties are really fucking stupid. Relax if you went to one of these tea parties. I am not calling you stupid. I think I would call you idiotic, or a tool, or a loser. But certainly not stupid.
Seriously on Fox News right now Glen Beck and Ted Nugent are going crazy and all the people in the crowd are saying they don't want to pass on these deficits to their children. Its looking like a pretty white affair. I know they are in Texas but couldn't a couple of minorities have showed up?
My question is what is the point and why is this happening? Let's first dismiss the fact that the people behind the scenes who are promoting these tea parties are conservative think tanks run by the likes of Newt Gingrich and Grovier Norquist and their tax cuts without reducing spending is one of the reasons we have one of these huge debts in the first place. If the point of these parties is fiscal responsibility then this is a massive fail.
But where were these parties for the last eight years when the Bush administration racked up these huge deficits? Nobody was crying about passing the bucks to our kids and their kids.
And wasn't the original Boston Tea Party all about taxation without representation? If this is true I could understand why maybe you could realistically have one of these tea parties in D.C. since they don't have any representation but in Texas?
I've heard that a lot of people are showing up at these things because of Obama raising the tax rates. Realistically 95% of the American People will see a tax relief under Obma so all these protestors are mad that extremely rich fucks are going to get taxed at the same levels they did under the Clinton administration (which was less than the Reagon administration). I can understand why people would protest this because if I remember correctly the economy had a massive expansion under Clinton and he left ofice with a surplus.
I think the biggest complaint from these Fox News watching talk radio listening cretins is the all the bitching about how government getting to big. If you ask me people are noticing this not a minute too soon. I mean look at the things the Bush administration did: eavsdropping, secret energy commisions, rendition, The Patriot Act, the expansion of the executive branch, the politicalization of the judicial branch, and their lack of transparenty just to name a few things. Where were these tea parties then. Oh yeah they were non-existant.
Maybe I'm just bitter no one showed up at my tea party. Next time I'll buy snacks.
(And please I know some of you people who did go to these tea parties have been complaining about this stuff for years but it doesn't count if you are someone who believes some sort of New World Order is going to be implemented. You people are what experts called delusional)
