Selective editing:It’s very convenient for the lefties to make this about attacking Obama but the Tea Parties are about the anger the right feels toward the spending of both the Democrats and Republicans (don’t believe me? Take a look at this). There is still anger from the years of pork barrel spending when the Republicans were in control. Why didn’t they have Tea Parties then? They didn’t have to, they got their point across by sitting out elections. But under the Democrats (with support from some RINOs) the spending is so out of control, so many multiples more than what was spent under the Republicans and it looks like it will continue into the foreseeable future that they have to go out and say, “We aren’t happy with what you’re doing.” It’s the only way to let their voice be heard. They are tired of no one is Washington listening to them and mortgaging the future of their kids and grandkids. (via)
