Judy Lloyd offers this reflection, originally posted at Fox and Hounds, on yesterday’s Tea Party at the Capitol in Sacramento. She writes, in part:
“What I liked best about the Tax Tea Party was that these were real Californians – people who showed up because they were sick of paying for things they don’t benefit from – like corporate bailouts and bloated government. These people scratch their heads every day wondering what that extra tax dollar is paying for. It is not putting food on their table or clothing on their kids. These were not Republicans or Democrats – they were Americans. People Taxed Enough Already.”

How come you idiots weren’t at work? lazy racists who got tricked by the rich to protest for them.
Most of you supported the Republican Party and the eight year spending binge and now the check has come due you cry and snivel like children. Smart people saw this coming, smart people called for a balanced budget. You are now getting what you deserve. You also reelected Bush after Ken Lay raped California and voted in his buddy Arnold. Americans must have an average IQ of 70. Did you get this angry when your penis enlargement pills did not work?
I had a great time at the Pleasanton TEA Party! There were lots of people out everywhere. We’ll have to do it again!
