"Danger From the Evil CONSTITUTIONALISTS!"

Back in the Colonial days the British had the Whigs and the Tories as their political parties. Two parties seem to be the best way to run a political system; and those two parties encompass different degrees of those parties' political philosophy. Each party has moderate and radical members; and some fringe elements that embrace ideas far from the main stream membership. We have the "TEA Party" movement taking place in America today. The TEA Party is not really a singular party; it is more of a union of taxpayers who want to see legitimate change in our government's spending habits, and a return to a more fundamentalist interpretation of our Constitution. I know this is a simplistic explanation, but I believe it gives the reader a basic view of TEA Party ideals.

A recent YouTube video shows a protester saying that the TEA Party is more dangerous than the Muslim Brotherhood and would "...destroy America...(and)...destroy the world..."! In a diatribe of inane dribble, this misguided leftist ranted incoherently about the "evils of the TEA Party". I don't know everyone in the TEA Party, yet, I believe the vast majority are normal, regular, taxpaying Americans with good intentions and honest patriotism. I also believe there is a possibility that some members could be "fringe nuts"; just like the Republican and Democratic Parties! There are members of the Democrats who espouse radical socialist ideology on a regular basis, as there are Republicans who border on far right radicalism. In 1989, the Louisiana House was inhabited by David Duke. David was a "stone racist" and a "Grand Wizard of the KKK". David was listed as a Republican on the ballot; although every legitimate Republican wanted nothing to do with him. David believed he could be President of the United States; he believed he represented the true beliefs of the American people; talk about delusional!

Just as a lunatic like David Duke falls under the umbrella of the Republican Party, so do the members of the SDS or the young communists fall under the umbrella of the Democratic Party. Violent, radical, racist, socialist and communist elements exist in America today. When the ill informed protester, who gets his opinions from a pseudo-intellectual comedian, makes statements, he would be better served to do actual fact checking about those for whom he has chosen to protest. There have been no documented violent actions at any of the TEA Party demonstrations! These people are "constitutionalists" who believe in the law. I wish those who choose to protest would take the time to read our Constitution, and try to understand the principles of our Founding Fathers. I believe study will show just how much the TEA Party reveres the words of Jefferson and Adams. If this group is more dangerous than "The Muslim Brotherhood" then the American form of government is about to make a terrible change; it seems our CONSTITUTION IS GOING OUT OF STYLE!
