He has put the real mind-set of the Tea Party folks. All we hear from the interviews with Tea Party attendees is "we are taxed enough already; we don't want socialized medicine." Those kinds of things. I keep shouting at the TV. "Tell the stupid reporters it's about "freedom". It's all about freedom. Our culture has been strangled for decades by elite busy bodies trying to control any and everything in our lives. You can't have prayer in school; you can't say that word; you have to license those guns; your kid has to have that vaccine; etc.

Now the government has taken over industry and health care and are poised to take energy an banks. These are the last straw. Our enslavement will soon be sealed. The Tea Parties are our last gasp of hope. We stand or we are lost forever. It's about freedom.

Just like all these so-called "Conservative pundits" in Washington. I like Barone too, but columns like this would have been more effective last year than this year.
