The TEA Parties

I was unable to attend any of the tea parties that were held this past week on April 15. The one held here in Birmingham was not to far from my house, but I did have other things going on . I watched Sean Hannity in Atlanta and Sean had a feed coming in from various other tea parties, including Birmingham. I hated to miss this and hope to be able to attend future tea parties. I'm confident that there will more more.

Needless to say, the actions taken by the mainstream media in covering the tea parties, were very disturbing, especially the NBC coverage which used some vulgar terms to describe the participants. Let a bunch of gays clad only in jock straps, paint, and feathers parade through town and the mainstream media can't wait to salivate all over them and show support for this "much maligned in the past" group. On the other hand, let a group of hard working people come together to show concern about out of control government spending and the media types show nothing but disdain for them.
