I have never been more proud of my country, and of my native state of Wyoming, as I was yesterday (tax day). I attended the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party in Sheridan, WY. I only expected a few people, but there were so many crowded together they couldn't be counted. They were in the hundreds.
I have been disgusted with our federal government for various reasons, but I have renewed confidence in the people of this greatest nation on earth.
In some cities there were crowds in the thousands. As many as 15,000 people in bigger cities. A possible 7 million nationwide. All this with no support, or airplay from the leftist media. I had to learn about it on the Web. And, even after this historic event, there was hardly any coverage, at all, by the Obama-biased news shows (ABC, CBS, NBC).
There were people of all political parties in attendance. Even Democrats. Many of them are worred about our future too.
These TEA Parties were a protest against all the wild spending of borrowed, or just printed, money by our out of control Obama government. The government doesn't have any money, if fact, it is 11 Trillion dollars in debt. In 5 years it will double that, and triple it in 10 years-with Obama's plans. Can we survive that?
Obama's Secretary of Homeland Security, called us "Right Wing Extremists". I guess being patriotic is "extreme" to Obama's gang, many of whom don't pay their taxes like we Peons do. I am sure these leftists were in the destructive demonstrations in the 60's and 70's, which supported the communists of North Vietnam. They didn't call themselves "extremists" though.
There is going to be another TEA party on Independence Day, and one in December on the date of the original tea party of 1773. Let's make them even bigger.
Here in Sheridan, the day before, the Cut and Run Club "Peacemakers", had 4 people attend their protest. I am glad most people know what to take serious.
