I'm feeling very revolutionary right now. I can't help it. Yesterday, just before the planned protest by conservatives, the Department of Homeland Security came out to warn the people about "rightwing extremist activity," and the state of Texas openly declared that it would not allow the Federal Government to usurp it's constitutionally granted sovereignty. I'll tell you, it all makes for a great show. Seriously, rightwing extremists? They defined that term as groups that reject federal authority in favor of state or local authority.Were they speaking to the governor of Texas, or to all of us? Today, my friends, I am so happy to be a rightwing extremist. I am going to be watching the unfolding of the Tax Day Tea Parties and posting the comments of various rightwing extremists. The Department of Homeland Security saw them as a threat and issued a warning. If we are truly threats to the cause of ripping away the liberties this country was founded on, then "rightwing extremist" is a title I will wear with pride.
EXTREME QUOTES:
"These are moms and dads, teachers and students, businessmen and women who are concerned for their country. They are worried that our nation is quickly being taken in the wrong direction by politicians who are more concerned about the next election instead of the next generation."
-Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina
"They've had enough of Democrats forcing taxpayers to pick up the tab for more wasteful spending instead of working together to make the tough fiscal decisions Americans are forced to make each and every day. They've had enough of seeing their hard-earned tax dollars wasted on pork-barrel spending that won't create jobs, rebuild their savings, or get our economy moving again. And they've had enough of Congress and the White House mortgaging our children and grandchildren's future by saddling them with mountains of debt destined to bankrupt our country."
- House Minority Leader John Boehner
