A few serious questions for the tea-baggers?
Advertisements [?]
You say you are worried about losing your freedoms. Where in the hell were you for the last 8 years as we were screaming and marching and telling America the very same thing? You were quieter than a church mouse. As the President came out and admitted that they illegally spied on over a million Americans, you said nothing. I must say, your protestations now seem just a bit suspicious. You say you want to take your country back. Sorry, suckers. You lost it about 8 years ago.

You say you want a balanced budget and an accounting for all the money we are spending. Where were you when George W Bush and the Republican Party were doubling our national debt in just 8 short years? Where were you when they kept asking to increase the debt ceiling by hundreds of billions of dollars? Where were you when they were borrowing a trillion dollars to prosecute two wars, at least one which was based on a stack of lies? Where were you when the Republican Party spent over a half-trillion dollars on a new "Medicare" program which was nothing more than a handout to the big insurance companies? Where were you when we borrowed more than $5 trillion dollars to add to our national debt. You were fucking asleep! Now we are supposed to take you seriously?

Where were you? When we were telling the nation that our Constitution was being shredded and that George W Bush and Dick Cheney were wiping their asses with it? You never said a word. We can only asume that you agreed with them. Now, you are shocked that the people threw your asses out? It's good that you are now waking up? But you are about $5 trillion dollars and eight years short. The majority of America can not take you seriously. You have no credibility.
