After reading the TG postings and thinking a bit I have come to a few conclusions: 1. If the republicans had come to power with a president with the ideals of Obama and spent like the democrats have done, it would be the democrats boosting the tea parties. 2. The media, whether liberal or conservative, have become a mouth piece for their personal ideals and have quit giving the American public a balanced view. They don't report the news but spin it to the the power they are backing. 3. Freedom of speech is what the power to be want it to be. Why should we be afraid to blog or publicly state our opinions? Why should we be afraid of recrimination? Why should we be afraid of being outed by the TG because we have different opinions then others? 4. When is blogging a poison on the equal with Heroin as a commissioner stated in an open meeting? I like to follow Thomas Jefferson's idea and have all sides of the discussion presented and after spirited, if needed, discussion, make a decision. That is more American in my mind than what we have now
