Tea Time, Taxes, Tyranny

Tea Time, Taxes, Tyranny

I had written my senator an email and at the end of it I wrote, "I think it's time for a Tea Party." I wrote that about four or five weeks ago. I had no idea that other people were planning to have Tea Parties around the country. I wish I'd known about it sooner because I would have been there. When I found out I had already made an appointment for my mother's physical therapy on her hand.

I hear there will be another Tea Party starting April 1st. This Tea Party is going to be different. This Tea Party will be tea bags sent to our congressmen and women in Washington DC. They want everyone opposed to all the new taxes and spending done by the new congress, senate, and president, to send tea bags in an envelope to Washington. Address the envelope to your congressman, senator, and I think even the president needs tea. Personally I think we should send the IRS some tea also. If things don't change I'm all for dumping the tea in the Boston harbor. Maybe there is a fountain at the White House that would be a good symbol for the Boston Tea Party. We are being taxed without representation. I heard that is called Tyranny.
