Subject:  Tax Day Protests

Yesterday was tax day and the Tea Party was out in droves…there was suppose to be 661 separate protests across the country…..but there is a couple of things that are interesting…..Tea Partiers have been labeled as low info voters but a survey has shown that most are well off and well educated and 6% of the Partiers say that the economic problems were Bush’s doing…..while 37% blame Obama…….apparently they may well be more educated by they do not seem to pay attention to what is happening in their lives…….oh yeah, 89% of the Partiers are white….just thought you might like to know…….

And another complete mystery is their opposition to the tax increases of the Obama and yet about 95% of the population will get tax relief in the next year or so…..so what is the taxes that they are so concerned over?

Most of the Partiers are not bitching about Social Security, Medicare or Defense, which makes up about 75% of the budget……it is the other 25% that they are so concerned about….nice, huh?……then what is the problem and what do they want to eliminate?

There is more……many of them say that they want and know what the Founding Fathers intended and that we have to get back to that…..but somewhere they neglect to say just what it is that they intended and few that mention the Constitution but never mention why or what they are talking about…somehow revs up the crowd just to mention the Constitution…..the reality is that the mention of the document is just that…a mention…..it is political rhetoric….if they truly think that something is un-Constitutional then they need to provide proof….if they cannot do that then ignore the babble…..

I understand the frustration and the anger….we all have that, especially if you are in the Middle Class…..but for God’s sake be specific…..

We are told that the Tea Party is a movement by  the media….but is it?….I want someone to give me a workable definition of what the Tea Party stands for…I mean in real terms not some obfuscated thing like “freedom”…….I have a feeling that I have a lengthy wait…..how about you?

The Tea Party is not facing reality….they think that “Obama sucks” and that somehow is enough to carry the “movement” forward…….after the Taxes….what then?  Where will the “Party” go….will it go away?  Or move on to another fictional boogieman?
