It's only for the liberals.....

Since the Tea Parties last week I've read and heard from many on the left as they attempt to marginalize the significance of those rallies.  And it's not just the media types from the New York Times, MSNBC or CNN.  Although they have been a good part of gleefully giving these folks a stage.

Everyone from shrill unfunny comedians (and a really bad actress) to Congressmen (and women) to the President's handlers have been working very hard to classify those that attended the rally as just a bunch of ignorant redneck right-wing extremists.  (Sounds like they're reading directly from that Homeland Security memo.   Coincidence?   I don't think so.)

I thought conservatives were the mean ones?

The most amazing thing is when they talk about how uncool it is to protest.  How it's only a racist foundation underlying the protests.    How it's un-American to protest.  How comparing the President to anything other than a hero is somehow mean and uncalled for.

I recall the past 8 years of another President being called every name in the book.  Being burned in effigy.  Being vilified even on those occasions he may have been right.    And I'm pretty sure that was those same folks that are now saying it's racist or un-American.  Strange.  Maybe not.

What they are missing is the fact that the citizens that were out there are not the professional protestor, overly emotional, whiney, or polarizing lefty.   They were the folks that normally just stay home and shake their heads in disbelief at the craziness of the left's antics.   Those attention-starved liberals that don't feel fulfilled unless every one of us is tortured with their opinion.

These are people that just work hard and do the things that need to be done.  

And now they see this as something that needs to be done.

Make no mistake.   We are all angry with the overspending of the Bush Admin.   We are all angry with the forecasted debt that the current President is about to foist on us.  All in the name of resolving an "emergency".   It's got to stop.  The Uncle Sam Gravy Train needs to be derailed.   The government needs to stop overstepping it's bounds and the mandate given by the founding fathers.

The Governor of Texas made a point about trying to force the Federal Government to abide by the 10th Amendment.  

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

To all the whiney libs out there - you're not the only one's entitled to your first amendment rights.  

To all the big government advocates - look out.   You've just activated what was a silent group of citizens that are willing to come together and speak in one voice.
