Last Sunday, I attended a Tea Party in Melbourne, Fla., where the Space Coast's U.S. Rep. Bill Posey, a Republican, was well received.
Some 2000 Space Coast residents cheered when Posey held up two large reams of Stimulus Bill print-out before tossing it to the floor. After Posey ended his speech to loud applause, emcee Bill Mick of Melbourne's WMMB Radio told organizers to leave the Stimulus print-out on the floor, as it was just trash anyway. The crowd roared approvingly.
Posey's remarks were favorably met, unlike the "welcome" given another Republican congressman at the Greenville, S.C., Tea Party.
Gresham Barrett was roundly booed and repeatedly told to "Go home." Many turned their backs to him as others sounded air horns, letting the TARP and porkulus package supporter know they didn't appreciate his votes or his doublespeak.
