[kj] (OT) Tea Party

[Karen Weil]

That's my biggest problem with this movement. I am 1,000 percent for free speech and the right to peacefully assemble and protest -- and that goes for the Tea Party. 
But like LB, I just wonder where the hell these people were when the GOP was in charge, spending like drunken sailors (and yes, I know more than a few Demos went along, and shame on them) -- on an unecessary and unjustified invasion, corporate welfare and other ridiculous things. 
This was also the same group that called anyone who questioned Bush "traitors," and "anti-American." 
Do I defend their right to speak their mind? Absolutely. I have no patience with their hypocrisy, however -- and have no use for the movement, otherwise.

  First they weren't there because it was a Republican president. And second I'm sure they were all for an illegal war and refuse to believe it was and justified. And third they are tea baggers what do you expect. ;)

    Where were these 'tea party' people 8 years ago, when the US government started an illegal war that is costing billions, condoned torturing people, wire tapping our phones, and running the economy into the ground?... And now they're getting violent over healthcare, on the premise that it is taking away their freedom?
