Am I alone in having a problem with this politician? Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky, D-IL, called the Tea Parties despicable and shameful. Talk about nerve! This is the same Congresswoman who was the featured speaker for the Chicago Democratic Socialists of America 46th Annual Debs-Thomas-Harrington dinner.
On their website the DSA makes this remarkable statement, "Democracy is not simply one of our political values but our means of restructuring society." This is socialism disguised as democracy. We already have a democratic society, they want socialistic restructuring; to hell with freedom and the US Constitution!
It terrifies me that the American people, who live better than 90% of the rest of the world, would want to change the very principles which the country was founded. There has been an immeasurable amount of American blood spilled for the sake of our freedoms. If socialism is so good, why are so many legal American citizens leaving states like New York and California where social programs are abundant?

And "restructuring" it is exactly what they are trying their darndest to do! I guess they want us to be a carbon copy of Venezuela. GADS!
They call us, the people who do the work in America, right-wing extremists! It's almost funny when the real extremists are in the White House and Congress... at least for now. I hope and pray that the movement, started yesterday with tea parties all over this land, will only grow in numbers. I seriously doubt that yesterday was the end of the protests. Even people who voted for Obama came out in interviews and admitted that they didn't realize what "hope" and "change" Obama meant. Well, they know it now, don't they? *sigh* If only they had paid closer attention!
As for Mz. Schakowsky, her calling the tea parties despicable and shameful is despicable and shameful. They tell us every day who the real extremists are. :)
