Regarding The Tea Party


 
How sad they all seem.

How confused and lost they must feel at this stage in history. The president is BLACK! GAYS are on the television! MEXICAN babies outnumber white babies! I'm going to be in the minority soon and I'm losing my religion!

The country is changing so fast. Suddenly, THEY feel like the ones being persecuted. THEY feel like the outsider. The world is passing them by and they are scared to death. Scared of what? Change. Progress. Anything different than what they were raised to think.

Now people are looking at them like they're the outcasts; they are the one that don't fit. The ones that are being mocked for being different, and, surprisingly, it doesn't feel so good.

So they do the only thing they think they can do, they gather together in a group and as one demand their interests be looked after! They REFUSE to be persecuted just for being who they are!

The tragic irony of this is of course lost on them. They don't see that their bigotry and fear have been hurting others for decades. They only see that it is no fun when it happens to them.

They also don't see that their fight for equal representation isn't the same as that of those groups brought together by their race, color, or natural sexual urges. It is not a fight for equal footing.

It is in fact the exact opposite. Their cause is an unjust one because their cause is keeping that true equality from happening. It isn't seeking a balance, but seeking to keep an imbalance intact. It is a fight to keep that one last bit of power they still do have. It is a rage against the machine of change.

They have taken their fears, scribbled them inside a bible and wrapped that bible in an American flag. ...God said THIS! ...America stands for THAT! When all they really mean to say is... I'm scared. I'm scared the world is leaving me behind.

That is sad. There is a real tragedy in that fear.

But like all fear of change, I believe when that change actually does take hold, the fear will regress. People will grow through it, and eventually everyone will wonder what all that worry was really for.

This Tea Party, I believe, is a lone stubborn rock in the middle of a flowing river of change. Desperately trying not to be swayed down that scary, unknown bend. Trying to stick to the foundation of a "simpler, older way" that never really existed.

But America has always been about change and revolution. Like that river, it is when we stop moving that we grow stagnant. We as a people should never slow down. Progressing forward has always been more our speed. It's when we find the best in us.

If we let those stubborn little rocks get in our way, we would truly be "damned".





Yes, I ended on a terrible pun.

Maybe they're afraid they'll get the 'minority' treatment they dished out.

I'm actually looking forward to being a minority. I can't wait to have special rights, I can't wait to have test standards lowered until I can pass them instead of having to study harder. I can't wait until I can scream racism at anyone who dares disagree with me. I can't wait to order my 'It's a white thing, you wouldn't understand" T shirt. Lord these people are stupid.  :banghead:

Record consecutive months of high unemployment, new lows in high school graduation, drugs and gangs, social decay, and trillions in  federal debt.

Their arrogance is always their downfall.  I'll be keeping an eye out for this DUmmie after the 2012 elections to see how generous he/she/it feels toward the Tea Party.

Well dummie... I ain't even gonna reply in detail to your bowel movement. Suffice it to say the tea party is alive and well and scares the living shit out of you. You see your free ride ending. Funny thing about it all is this: Your free ride is gonna end anyway cause the country is broke.

I'll survive. The question is... will you?

I doubt it.
