A LETTER TO THOSE AFRAID OF TEA!

A LETTER TO ALL THOSE AFRAID OF TEA!
By Claudia Roazen
First, do not be fooled that the tea party is an organized political party or a puppet of the Republican Party or any other organized political machine. It is not a third party; it is called the Tea Party strictly as a metaphor of the historic BOSTON TEA PARTY revolt in which colonists solidified with each other’s want of freedom as it expressed to British rule that it would rather go without their beloved British Tea than continue to be subjugated by “Taxation without Representation”.
Second, it is not a “Patriot group” or a cult or a group that espouses hatred, violence, bigotry, insurrection of any kind to the government. There is no connection and no affiliation with radicalism.
Third, one needs not to be of just one party to join the Website and or affiliate with those in the movement. Democrats, Independents, Republicans and even those who have never registered, or voted or have taken in interest in politics prior can be in the group, provided that they agree with the Tea Party beliefs and are not trying to infiltrate the group and disrupt or corrupt it’s message.
Fourth, it is a basic, simple and apple pie straightforward message. Keep America’s unique Constitution based Democratic Republic and Capitalist System safe from a liberal camp that has been trying to socialize her, undermine her Constitution, demonize her Capitalism, alter through propaganda her past history and seek to change her future away from her Forefather’s roots.
Fifth, members and likeminded sympathizers are not zealots, ill-educated, bible thumping proselytizers or old fogies that want to return to horse and buggy days but instead are average, patriotic, law-abiding, civil minded, taxpaying Americans wanting integrity to be restored to our institutions. These average citizens have concerns and Ideas such as;
Representatives in government should represent the people not special Interest groups, lobbyist or those with most campaign monies to contribute.(Corruption) Laws and or legislation should be enacted that solve problems not create problems or make problems worse or in any way undermine Americans constitutional rights.(Healthcare Mandate) That the Federal Government should be constrained to its size, power and scope as was the intent of our Forefathers in understanding that we are the UNITED STATES not the FEDERAL AMERICA that our leaders in Washington have been power grabbing for years from distorted and contorted interpretations of the Constitution.(Commerce Clause) Protection of our borders from illegal immigration not Amnesty. (We welcome legal immigration and are not bigots) That if the Federal Government is using taxpayer monies to bail out companies like General Motors then it is both hypocritical because it is not bailing out small business that suffers bankruptcy as well as undermining the Capitalist System by owning private enterprise. (Socialism)
These are just some of the concerns of people who have joined or who are thinking of joining the Tea Party movement there are other concerns as well.
What is this group’s devious plan of action you might ask? It is to do the un-thinkable as they communicate and band together on web sites. They plan to, they are going to…I’m not sure I should say…it is just so scary radical…it’s just so politically un-apathetically historic…it’s just so novel and inventive…okay I’ll reveal the secret plans to everyone…they are going to register if not registered already and then…then…then..VOTE!
