Tea anyone?

I am excited to say that i attended the local tea party here in Amarillo, Texas. Wow!! What a sight!! There were over 300 people in attendance at the parking lot of the local Post Office of which I work. People coming in to send off their last minute taxes and have their voices be heard.



My sister is a staunch Obama supporter. She had her "I Support Obama" poster ready. But the Obama supporters were in short supply. Hey!! I am in TEXAS. lol The mere fact that there were so many ppl willing to show up and show support on a single issue, be it for or against, was the amazing thing. When is the last time a group of Americans showed up to show support for anything? Usually we are just sitting back and letting others voice our opinions for us. This was a clear cut and dry stance against the budget plan Obama has set forth. I for one am tired of bailing out multi-million dollar companies so they can go on spa retreats!! T.E.A Taxed Enough Already alright!!



The tea parties were to get across the message that we don't want socialism in our country. Don't fool urselves into thinking that health care for all is a great thing. That means more taxes and government deciding who does and does not get health care!!! If you're in your late years (60's and higher) you will not be getting that hip replacement you need. That would only be for the younguns who can benefit for more than 10 years with it. Also, we want our borders protected and I'm tired of paying taxes that those illegal immigrants never even thought of!!! I am not so ignorant as to think this all came about with the Obama presidency. I know Mr. Bush had his fair share. But, and I know this will make me verrryy unpopular, I think Mr. Bush did a stand up job. Mr. Obama is just making a bad situation worse!!!
