Tea Party and Town Hall meetings

Hi

It has become a hot topic on the news programs, "What do you make of the Tea Party?" What amazes me is how the pundits see so differently from the way I see it. Many, if not most, of the pundits see this as a new insurgent political party. I see it as a grass roots movement which is angry at both political parties. The cause of this misunderstanding is that those elected officials in Washington, DC just do not understand the American voters. The pundits go along with the Washington establishment primarily because of the culture of the city. DC eats up personalities and numbs the thinking process of the insiders. They huddle together and socialize with each other so they tend to get a very narrow point of view. Since most of these people seem to be liberal the prevailing thought is liberal.

We see it in the main stream media,papers like the New York Times do not report the cause,effect nor the make up of the tea parties. To the editorial staff any one who supports a tea party concept is just a radical right wing nut. Why don't they get it. The American public is tired of politics as usual,mutual backscratching by politicians of both parties and what seems like an unending stream of self serving legislation. We pay and we are pi**** off, listen Washington. The American people want and need a change of the way things have been running. I usually do not give ultimatums but in this case I must make an exception. If the elected officials don't share up by the November electionm, it will be "sayonara". 'Nuff said.

Meanwhile please continue to support our troops and keep praying for their safety.
GOD Bless
