Tea Party Day

*****"I don't know about cultural phenomenon, but I'll tell you what," Santelli said. "I think that this tea party phenomenon is steeped in American culture and steeped in American notion to get involved with what's going on with our government. I haven't organized. I'm going to have to work to pay my taxes, so I'm not going to be able to get away today. But, I have to tell you - I'm pretty proud of this. Rick Santelli, CNBC’s “Squawk Box” April 15

Should You Attend a Tea Party?

THEY DID IT FOR YOU. NOW DO IT FOR THEM

*****"On Wednesday, April 15th, thousands of Americans who have never before protested anything in their lives are going to be taking some hours from their busy workdays to go out into streets and show the Statists that they are not simply going to roll over and hand over the fruits of their labor to fund this growing aneurysm known as the Federal Government." read the rest at Pajama Media

This "right wing extremist" will be attending the Tea Party in Coeur d' Alene, Idaho.

Some Observations:

1. President Barack Obama seized the opportunity on tax-filing day to assert that his administration is easing the tax burden of working people. If you say something often enough, no matter how ridiculous, the sheeple will believe it to be true.
2. Kabul - A group of some 1,000 Afghans swarmed a demonstration of 300 women protesting against a new conservative marriage law on Wednesday. The women were pelted with small stones as police struggled to keep the two groups apart. Lovely!
   
3. "The White House says the president is unaware of the tea parties and will hold his own event today," ABC's Dan Harris said on "Good Morning America" on April 15. Right! And I'm tall and thin /sarcasm
   
4. Would it have been ok to mock and ridicule Susan Boyle if she couldn't sing?
