Tea for Two

I believe that if you are a Republican and you think that you have some claim to the Tea Party protests, you may need to review the situation. This was a non partisan, grass roots effort to shake the legislators in Washington. It isn’t anti-Democrat and it isn’t anti-Republican. It’s not “anti” anything, it is Pro American Citizen.

This is a textbook demonstration of how to peacefully express your dissatisfaction with the way your representatives have been doing their jobs.

It is the latest in an escalating response from the governed to what is apparently either disrespect or complete neglect of duties on the part of lawmakers.

If you are a lawmaker and you spend your time in Washington social circles instead of in your district listening, you should be scared. We are in your district, and we are listening, and we WILL vote in the next election.

Don’t think that a party emblem is going to be your free pass – we brought the tea and we’re making enough for both parties.

So get your act together, review your voting record, compare it to your constituents’ interests, and maybe polish up that resume. You just might be with many of those constituents, in the job market, soon.
