Letter to the Tea Party

Dear Tea Party,

Let me begin this letter by telling you that I am a member of the Republican party and I voted both times for George W. (affectionately known as Dubya). I voted for him both times because I felt he would do a better job of defending America against her enemies than the other guy and I stand by my decision; although the economy has severely suffered from these expensive military campaigns to colonize the Middle East (didn't exactly vote for that shit but oh well what can you do). I'd dare any nation to fuck with us because we have a Trillion Dollar Deficit; we spent most of that Trillion on Guns. So I'd like to thank Dubya for stock piling the weapons cache and making sure that America had the capacity to protect herself from all her new enemies.

That being said, what I think you guys are doing is totally wrong. You are holding America hostage by refusing to vote for the debt ceiling until the President and the rest of Congress agrees to your plan to further increase to divide the Haves from the Havenots thru cuts to Entitlements, Dept of Education, Medicare & Medicaid. (raises both middle fingers).

I mean seriously you are asking the poorest Americans to pay for the wars we been raging in the last 10 years. We burned through our deficit surplus before Dubya's first term was over, so there really is no way anyone can deny that his policies played a major role in the ballooning of our national debt.

Why are you totally opposed to removing the tax breaks that Dubya gave the wealthy Americans? You continue to say that the President wants to "raise" taxes, but that's not what he is proposing. You say that removing these tax breaks will have a devastating effect on business, but just for the sake of argument couldn't you make a compromise and demand that Corporate taxes be protected from any changes?

I think Boehner has become your tool and it really is become a disgrace. Yes you were successful in your political takeover of the 2010 elections and your influx helped the Republican party achieve the majority in the House but you aren't the majority. Boehner has made it appear that your vision for the Republican party is shared by all. I'm sorry but I totally disagree.

You guys should be satisfied that your resistance has forced the Democrats voluntarily put their sacred cows on the cutting board. I think it's total insanity that you guys refuse to do the same. Compromise is at the center of what our nation was founded on, without it the Declaration of Independence would have abolished slavery in this nation (Jefferson almost eased that one by you. No one would have guessed a slave owner would want to abolish slavery, but compromised, took it out, and kept his slaves until he died).

I hope the real Republicans finally decide to stand up and tell you freshman to go sit your unruly asses down before you fuck up everyone's chance at re-election in 2012!

...Hate It or Love It; Either Way You Felt Somethin'
