Why aren't we holding congressional hearings on tea-bagging extremists and white supremacists? |

7. You got that right...But what can we do now? |
|
My suggestion is contact your county Party/State Party, put your heads together and formulate some sort of a plan....Don't sit on your behinds and wait for someone else to do something....
