Would You Like To Hear Our Response ?
The day following a turn out of close to 2,000,000 Americans in 2000 locations across the country, what some consider the coming out party for the Tea Party movement Barack Hussein Obama dismissively sneered
"What? Was there some rally about something? I wasn't aware...."

Well Barry Boy that little noticed gathering of patriots is dismantling brick by brick, the Marxists dream for this country you have longingly hoped for all these years. In 29 more days another repudiation By The People, For The People is going to land on your doorstep. Instead of saying "Have A Nice Day" let me be the first to say
"HOW DO YOU LIKE US NOW !!??!! "

MAINWARING: We are all Tea Partiers now
New 'Great Awakening' will reverberate well past November.
By Doug Mainwaring
The Washington Times
September 30, 2010
On Feb. 7, 2009, the cover of Newsweek magazine proclaimed, "We Are All Socialists Now." Since then, much has transpired, including the sale of Newsweek (the business entity) to the highest bidder for $1. Now, 1 1/2 years later, a more poignant cover story might be "We Are All Tea Partiers Now."
The Tea Party is the leading edge of a "Great Awakening" in America. In many ways, it appears to have the force and vitality of one of the religious awakenings that have occurred throughout our nation's history. It is more than a populist movement. It is more than a reactionary group expressing voter dissatisfaction and anger. It can't be boiled down to election results. It will not be co-opted neatly by the Republican Party. It is something much, much bigger.
The Tea Party movement represents a resounding declaration of the end of big, overreaching government.
Our nation is in the grip of an overwhelming, seemingly inescapable malaise, not because our government hasn't done enough for us, but because it has tried to do too much. Over the decades, "government" has mutated into "big government," and its weight is killing us. Recent massive efforts to stimulate the economy or save certain sectors of it through increased government intervention and spending, far from helping us, have only added to the fog of uncertainty and oppression.
Washington's presumed role of always knowing what is best for every aspect of our lives is over. One by one, people are waking up and realizing that perhaps they know what is best for themselves, their families, their local communities and their states. The Tea Party movement is not just an expression of disfavor with how things get done in government. It is the promise of a tectonic shift of decentralization and reduction of government.
Great Awakenings have been periods in our country when religion has become intensely personal for individuals. However, the beginnings of this great awakening we now behold is not religious in nature; it is purely secular. It deals not with church institutions, but with our government; not with the enlivening of ancient scriptures, but with bringing to life our founding documents; not with each individual's incorporation into a congregation, but rather our relationships within our local communities; not with eternal salvation, but with liberty experienced in the here and now.
