SO WHAT WHO ASKED? “Tea Party 2010”

SO WHAT WHO ASKED? “Tea Party 2010”

Not a lot of publicity or news coming in or going out of the Tea Party National Agenda. I have read some of the articles and discontentions that are coming from the writers of the movement. But what I have read is mainly from sources like CNN, PBS, Internet, and of course my email.

The Tea Party movement started, I thought to raise awareness and alert the American people. People, who felt that they were getting a raw deal from Washington and Capital Hill. Of course its not a real party but a grassroots organization that rose up out of contentions and over spending and the US debt created, by democrats, and republicans. However, when you look at the members who have been attending these functions, they're people who feel or are feeling like they've gotten a raw deal. Many are small business owners and just ordinary folks who have an allegiance to America. In which I am for a hundred percent. “Free Speech”

Some veterans, some retired, some who just feel that they have a right to there discontent. Right, wrong, agree or disagree. Granted, some of the people who “I believe” initially looked at the platform, thought that it was a good ideal. Yes ...lets' Get involved, let our government hear our voices. Although, the events that I have seen and tried to get an idea about. Seem to be all States Rights Issues. As and example: The California Water Rights debate issue for water for the farmers, and land developers. Even though the Secretary of the Interior issued a stop usage of water and actually taken away water rights for a few. Which included some growers and small land owners. “has been on going since the 90's” California water rights issues

My understanding of the problem and the history of water and water rights has been going on for a very long time. Warning had and has been given to farmers, and land owners for years. The use of water being restricted is not a new thing or a new problem for the State of California. Which is a State problem and a problem for the Federal Representation that represent California and its Governor . “Its not a Federal problem”

The Tea Party convention was marketed as an opportunity to bring Tea Party leaders from across the country together to network and support the movement's goals. But some see the high-ticket convention, organized by a for-profit organization, as contradictory to the group's bottom-up, grass-roots beginnings. [1] 1From a personal standpoint I see the Tea Party as a propaganda machine in spreading distrust , and further fractions within our political system and political affairs. ...and Not as a group who is raising the awareness of the poor leadership among the Legislature and Congress. Which mainly has to do with poor representation either in the State House of your State or your Federal Representations, Congressman and Senators.

It just shows how poorly we have educated ourselves and our children for the last 40 years. Its really a shame and a disgrace that many of the people who are swayed by hype, really don't know the politics of their own country. That is why we are in the place as a nation we are in now. Ignorance
