I agree it’s a tantrum. I think these tea parties will accomplish exactly nothing.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

And if it's in the wrong direction, it doesn't matter how many steps you're willing to take.

Exactly. The tea parties aren't an end in themselves. What they will do is get like minded Americans together. And they will say to themselves "I am not alone."

And that greatly concerns the Statists of both stripes in D.C. What they want is for us to shut up and pay the tax.

They will say that our numbers aren't great, but remember that only 14% of the colonial population was involved with the Revolution at any given time.

It's not a big deal to get the illegal immigrant rent a mob to show up. What is a big deal is to get people who actually pay taxes and foot the bill to show up. And we will network with each other. And we will encourage one another. And the numbers will grow. And it will frighten the statist.

"They say, sir, that we are weak..."

I think this post of yours will accomplish exactly nothing. You still bothered to create it though, didn't you?
