Steve's barking at the tea party or Alice and wonderland

This week there happens to be a grass root movement called the tea party that is holding a convention. There is nothing wrong with a new political movement, with the exception that it might be financed by the Republican party and it's media arm Fox News. I'm not saying that's the case because in reality I have no proof, the other so called media outfits don't know how to ask the right questions.
Getting back to the people who are attending this gathering. They seem to anti-government anti-tax. They want to compare themselves to the Massachusetts rebels that complained about no taxation without representation when in reality they come closer to those who started the whiskey rebellion with the exception that those who rebelled against the whiskey tax had a legitimate grievance with the government were those who like to call themselves tea par-tiers should call themselves the selfish pr##ks party because the only thing they seem to represent no tax and no health care for the masses.
Now if they were around in the beginning of this country they would be surprised how the founding fathers would have looked down at there political movement. Don't forget the father of our country sent troops to put down this rebellion despite the fact no one had been killed by these put upon citizens.
Every political movement like to call themselves patriotic even the ones that believe that they should leave the union.
I have only one thing to say to these tea par-tiers about my country love it or leave it.
For those who just happen to be reading this blog sorry for the run on sentences.
