Astroturf??

TEA Parties

Yesterday, an estimated 1 million people gathered in 2,300 communities around the country to voice their dissatisfaction with the way our Federal government is operating. The people that gathered (peacefully by the way), were not Republican or Democrats, but Average Joe and Jane, small business owners, concerned citizens who have HAD ENOUGH of shenanigans in Washington.

Do you think Washington listened? Here is what our esteemed Speaker of the House had to say:

Guess Not! To her highness, we are "Astroturf". How nice.



Surely the mainstrean media covered the events objectively right?

Ummm...Guess Not

Where do we go from here? We CANNOT let this end. We have to keep having our voices heard! Take 5 minutes...Write your Congressman, your Senator, our President. It is your civic duty as an American.

This is not about whether the President's plans work or not, this is not about Republican or Democrat, this IS about our future, your children's future, our Country's future....
