I address this to those people who seem to believe that the Tea Party represents an extreme position on the political spectrum.
Can we agree that the economy of the country is in trouble? That we have no reasonable way to reduce our DEBT short of taxing people more than they already are taxed? That with 47% of the people being supported by the rest, our burdens are only going to grow? Can we agree on that? Or if not, can you explain why this isn't true?
Can we agree that Theresa Hines, Angelina Jolie, Beyoncé, Jeff Immelt and others, all good and wealthy Democrats don't have enough combined assets to bail us out? And can we agree that if you add the Koch Brothers, Sheldon Adelson, Bright House Networks, Met Life and other Republican supporters we would still be deeply underwater? Can we agree that the obscene amount of money thrown at elections could be better spent? And finally can we agree that the idea of halting the practice of buying elections would better serve all Americans?
You see? We do have something we can agree on.
