Conservatives sure lack originality. All the great artists and designers are all liberals and it really showed yesterday. Let us first address the milieu of the protest name: Tea Party. That is no conservative sounding event. Without the Boston in front of it, it sounds, well, kind of dainty. Don’t you think? And having the tea bag as the symbol not only opens you up to a wide swath of criticism, from both a locker room humor perspective and from a visual perspective. The real radical patriots of the 18th century were dressed up like savage Indians and tossed entire crates of bundled tea into Boston Harbor. But we must remember, these original protesters were radical liberals not goofy Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity wannabes with a poor attempt at shouting slogans in unison. Let’s face it, conservatives just don’t know how to protest.

And what were they protesting anyway? Their acronym T.E.A. stands for Taxed Enough Already which seems a little out of place since they all got a tax break under Obama; unless of course they make over $250K. And most of the crowd didn’t look like they fit into that category. So they are blaming Obama. The guy that is trying desperately to right the ship that those before him have forced under water. It seems to me the protesters are just bitter from having lost the election. If they wanted to protest, why don’t they go down to Wall Street and go after the real perpetrators of this disaster. Let’s do this right. Get the left behind you. Let’s go dismantle the corporate offices of AIG, CITI Group, Bear-Sterns, and JPMorgan, et. al. They are the modern day equivalent to what the British Crown did to America. Let’s wheel in barrel fulls of tea and wash out their headquarters. Liberals know how to protest. In the tens of thousands we could surround the companies and demand the government find those responsible for bringing the world economy to the brink of collapse and try them in court.  But instead you have a bunch of  people who realize their party is a waste of space, no longer represents them and the only thing worse is the new guy in the White House who has them staring reality in the face that change has come to America. Well, over sixty percent of America is with the President. I think I will go have a cup of tea sans the bag.
