By now you have probably heard that Obama's homeland security department sees you as a threat. Basically if you vote republican, served your country, feel that illegal immigration is just that ILLEGAL, and have a moral opposition to abortion you will become a terrorist. I know that may shock you. Most of you probably don't think you have enough time to plan let alone execute an attack on the country you love! So if you went to a tea party and wondered "who's that guy in the suit with sunglasses, and why is he talking into his cuff link?" don't worry....its just Homeland Security making sure you weren't buying a copy of the anarchist's cookbook. It's bad enough that the Obama administration thinks this, but now Janeane Garofalo is sounding off. In case you don't know who she is she's a b-lister that is now on 24. She was on MSNBC's "The Countdown with Keith Olbermann" in which she said:
"Let's be very honest about what this is about. This is not about bashing Democrats. It's not about taxes. They have no idea what the Boston Tea party was about. They don't know their history at all. It's about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up and is nothing but a bunch of teabagging rednecks. There is no way around that."Since Ms. Garofalo is a fan of history, here's a quick history of the word redneck. The first time it was used in print was as an adjective during the Battle of Blair Mountain. You see when the pro-union miners marched on the mine they wore red handkerchiefs around their neck. That way their union brother's would realize who they were, and aim their guns elsewhere. That's right rednecks were pro-union democrats. Oh and p.s. Janeane a little more history...conservatives make a majority of the viewers of 24. So if you want to give back your "dirty money" I'll understand.
Anyway as a person that was at a tea party I didn't notice the Klan, or Nazi's. I didn't see anyone burn Obama in effigy, nobody was goose-stepping up the street. What I saw was 2500 people that believe that bailing out companies and mortgages are wrong. People that feel that our government is becoming a bloated monster that is getting involved in areas it should never be. I also so people that feel that the constitution should be the law of the land, not any person or group of people. I saw people that feel that our government is giving up this nation's sovereignty to the U.N. I saw people that feel if the government would step back we can fix all our own problems. I saw people that know that this stimulus package will put our children and grandchildren in the chains of debt.
So if it makes liberals sleep better at night to label me a threat, or a racist...then go ahead. I know who I am and what I believe. If anyone gets a liberal in secret Santa, don't buy them a label maker, apparently they already have one!
