Tea Party 'Fun'

I have watched and listened as attention has focused on the group that is called ‘The Tea Party’.
‘The Tea Party’ is very different than the men who participated in the raid against the British Empire’s on December 16, 1773.
Boston Patriots raided three tea ships to dump the tea into the harbor to declare that taxation without representation would not be allowed in America and they also proved that individual rights are more powerful than corporate rights.
‘The Tea Party’ remained silent as the Supreme Court of the United States recently declared corporations are equivalent to individual Americans. Of course - we can’t buy and sell each other but corporations can.
Glenn Beck’s book ‘Arguing with Idiots’ is a ‘Tea Party’ Bible. The title of the book has the letter ‘R’ printed in reverse. ‘The Tea Party’ is mocked by the same foreign corporation supporting them.
In my neighborhood is the indignity of an American flag tied to the handle of a garbage can at the house of a ‘Tea Party’ advocate.
I believe in ‘One Nation Under God’ so I offer these words from the real Bible to my neighbors:
“The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.”
Is ‘The Tea Party’ fun?
