Try again. Did you vote in the last election, or not?
"Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
Did you all invite your leader Sarah Palin for tea? This is so pathetic. 64 million voted one way and you're making a big deal out of a few thousand haters..So sad.
This isn't a repub or dem thing. So sad you can't see beyond that. It's about taxpayers being fed up and making their voices known.

They seem to thrive on the division of the parties. Spewing venomous words and hatred followed with cute name calling of made up usually hateful names they think are clever and cute when all actuality it is quite immature and sad that adults are participating in such hateful behavior!
Thousands of people filled Fountain Square this afternoon for the Cincinnati Tea Party, a grassroots-effort designed to show their disapproval for bailouts and the massive federal stimulus plan.
People wore Revolution-era costumes and raised anti-bailout signs with messages like “Give us Liberty, not debt” and “No more bailouts.”
Sean Lynch was one of thousands who navigated the crowd.
“I’m frustrated with the way things are going in Congress. They need to remember that they work for us, and right now, we don’t approve,” said Lynch, of Colerain. “This is not a Democrat thing or a Republican thing. It’s a government thing.”
Lynch brought his children to the demonstration and hoped that one day, when they’re older, they’ll understand the importance of taking a stand. His 8-year-old, Isabel, held a “Stop spending my allowance” sign and 5-year-old Kate raised a “Stay out of my piggy bank” one.
“I don’t think anything is going to change overnight,” Lynch said. “But this is a start.”

Read it now cuz you won't see anything about it on the Nightly News. It won't be anything like the crazy lady camped out at Bush's ranch. For that, there were ten camera trucks for each of the nine protesters.
Lat time I check all 50 states and the district of Columbia had an election Nov 4th. That settled the federal issues for a while. See you in 2012. Until then it's a Democratic controlled government.
