The poster makes it look so cool to have a tea party in the UK.  This is not the image we have today with riots over the economy and the G20 summit.  Pix here- http://www.sacbee.com/static/weblogs/photos/2009/04/021195.html?mi_atom=The%20Frame

The G20 protesters are running around like little anarchists with their faces covered, spewing anti-capitalism and damaging The Royal Bank of Scotland.  I don’t see a tea pot in sight. 

America was founded on capitalistic principles.  The politics under Obama, Biden and Pelosi are insisting on changing America into a version of European socialism.  The EU’s economy isn’t any better than ours, but citizens who want to live under socialism, should just move to Europe where they can make fun of us far from far away, but they won’t go.

With calm appeal, that leaves the rest of us who are outraged.  Whatever your beef: the trillions of dollars in debt, poor management of existing regulations, unemployment, health care, education, bailouts, stimulus packages, or the heavy burdens of increased taxes, I urge you to consider attending or organizing a Tea Party on Tax Day, April 15.

The number of websites offering Tea Party activities is growing but http://taxdayteaparty.com/ is a concise place to find out what is going on in your own city and state.  Radio Patriot has some suggestions on getting a party started. http://radiopatriot.blogspot.com/2009/03/orlando-tea-party-organizer-offers.html

I pray that the protests any tea party do not attract the type of person who, rather than peacefully hold up a sign, will protest, whine, shout and break everything within sight.

The spread of democracy continues to be fought in Iraq, and Afghanistan with soldiers blood, sweat and tears.  Tea Party Tax Day is not the forum for spilling blood or violence on the streets of America. 

Get your feet out of the quicksand and on to the street.  You can be mad as hell, but the goal is to peacefully protest.

911wtc

Score one for the taxpayers and owners of ground zero.  No longer will the construction delayed tower be referred to as The Freedom Tower, it is going back to its legal name, One World Trade Center. 

“The fact is, more than 3 billion dollars of public money is invested in that building and, as a public agency, we have the responsibility to make sure it is completed and that we utilize the best strategy to make certain it is fully occupied,” the Port Authority said at http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090328/ap_on_re_us/attacks_freedom_tower.

I shouldn’t have been coined the Freedom Tower or any other touchy, feel good, patriotic, heal America adjective that protects people from remembering the despicable acts of terrorists on that fateful day.  The bastards who took thousands of victims, left survivors who remember seeing airplanes crashing, steel falling, death and destruction.  The crashing planes and towers should be replayed over and over to remind every single person how much hate can be levied against America.  Images of 911 are barely newsworthy except on the anniversary of 911. 

The building was, and always be, The One World Trade Center.   

Incidentally, what did General Motors do after 911?  It donated $1 million,  60 cars, and matched employee contributions.   Rather patriotic I’d say.

Cowards destroyed One World Trade Center, they did not take away our freedom.  We have politicians to do that for us while they lead us into government sponsored socialism and the ownership of an unbuilt Tower; no matter what you name it, floundering General Motors, and a few banks to name a few things.
