Do these Tea Parties make sense?!
I'm confused about these tea parties, because it seems as though allot of Conservatives are outraged about having to pay excessive taxes to pay for Obama's bailout. I don't understand why they didn't have this idea, or show so much outrage when just months ago, Bush did the first bailout, and McCain was super excited about it. People are upset about the pork in Obama's bill, but we don't even know where the money from the first bailout went. Yes, the bailout probably exceeds what we should be spending, but at least we are spending it IN the US on our economy rather than in Iraq where the money disappears.
What is really confusing is that so many people turn off their reason and rational thinking processes now, and are willing to immediately hate any person from the opposing party. How ridiculous and un American. I'm also confused about why everyone is throwing the word Communism around, when the closest we have been to communism was the bailout, and BOTH parties have done one. Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for my safety, but it seems that the closest that we have come to a Totalitarian nation is when Bush signed the Patriot Act that allowed our highest form of government to circumvent the Constitutional rights of Americans. The same circumstances were what made Hitler a dictator, when he used the Reichstag Fire to prey on people's fear, and he asked for special powers from Parliament, and they signed The Enabling Act, giving him powers outside of their established boundaries. I'm not trying to be inflammatory, but it just seems that when extraneous measures are taken, it only seems to matter whether it was your party that initiated it. Is the social problem that there are just too many pissed off bloggers that have little to do with their day, but love a good fight? I know Obama has and will make mistakes, just as Bush, just as Clinton, just as everyone before them. This economy is cyclical, and we experience a recession about every 12 years, and it will happen again. If we can go from a surplus at the end of Clinton, to a record deficit at the end of bush, we can come back from a huge investment in our own country, which has already begun to work. I'm not bagging on Bush or inflating Clinton, just stating the times and situations of the economic environment.

Answers:
If you listen to MSNBC, I understand why you ask this, because they are Public Relations Agents for the Labor Union communists.
If you watched the tax parties, you will see the people were not republicans they were everybody and they were talking about Bush too. Most are considering a third party candidate. If you watch Olbermann, at least get another point of view or you will be as loony as he is
only if you are a 3 year old girl.
I agree with you!!!
