Tea party witness chokes up: 'I'm not begging my lords for mercy. I'm a born free American woman'
Daily Caller ^ | 6/4/13 | Vince Coglianese

Posted on 06/04/2013 8:41:31 AM PDT by Nachum

A tea party witness from Alabama launched into emotional testimony Tuesday as she described her group’s political abuse at the hands of the Internal Revenue Service.

“We peacefully assemble. We petition our government. We exercise the right to free speech. And we don’t understand why the government tried to stop us,” Wetumpka Tea Party President Becky Gerritson said during her opening statement before the House Ways and Means Committee.

“I’m not here at as a serf or a vassal,” she went on, beginning to choke up. “I’m not begging my lords for mercy. I’m a born-free American woman, wife, mother and citizen.”

The POS McDermott’s response to these testimonies gave me violent impulses. What an absolute piece of nazi trash.

Hate seems too tame of a word.

“Liberals” not only despise people who believe in the freedoms afforded us by the Constitution; They want us DEAD.

I was born in a welfare state
Ruled by bureaucracy
Controlled by civil servants
And people dressed in grey
Got no privacy, got no liberty
Cos the twentieth century people
Took it all away from me.

Don’t wanna get myself shot down
By some trigger happy policeman,
Gotta keep a hold on my sanity
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t wanna die here.

My mama says she can’t understand me
She can’t see my motivation
Ain’t got no security,
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t wanna be here.

I don’t see this on Drudge. Perhaps someone who has the time can e-mail this to Drudge, Sean, Rush, Mark and others to see that it gets a big push.

Obama and Democrats have brought disgrace and contemptible shame upon this country!

Democrats are nothing more than yearning fascists.

You're telling me. My wife was inconsolable for weeks afterwards, and I was a literal zombie for about three days. I don't think a national political event has ever had such an emotional impact on me.

If the GOP can’t score on the IRS crime’s as detailed by Dr. Eastman, specifically the sharing of documents filed with the IRS to his political opponents, then every citizen can have their private health records shared by the IRS and find that they may wind up in the hands of creditors, Insurance companies, Banks, data mining companies and perhaps more. Imagine if your a few pounds overweight, and your bank won’t give you a mortgage unless you accept a higher interest rate because of a precieved risk, oy your race is not consistant with the growth plan for that neighborhood. What aspect of peoples lives would be out of bounds?
