Where is the New Tea Party Now?

This one’s for the Tea Partiers:
As I fellow tea party protester, I have to ask: Why weren’t any Tea Party protesters at the G20 summit in Pittsburgh? I know that the G20 has historically been a target of the left, but when I was at the march in DC I saw plenty of signs saying Follow the Constitution, etc. I realize that most protesters at the summit are there to protest capitalism and the free market in general, and that’s their right. However, President Obama spoke there and said that the multiple porkulus programs he implemented earlier in the year are working. Do my fellow tea partiers agree with this assertion? Obama further stated that G-20 leaders would spare no effort to reach a global warming agreement at an international gathering later this year in Copenhagen. Sound good to you? How about giving more power to the International Monetary Fund? Are you telling me that you couldn’t come up with a sign that showed that anarchy AND globalist policies are wrong? Does any of this have anything to do with following the Constitution? I would have gone but couldn’t afford to, however I did expect to see some kind of representation from the newly awakened protesters from the right. Are you all so partisan that you can’t even put your ideological differences aside even when you share a common enemy with the left? Is it really true that “The enemy of my enemy is my friend”? Really? If that’s so, allow me to show you the face of the true enemy. It is not the misguided anarchist students that got beat up over the weekend. It is those who would violate the Constitution with no regard to the fact that they are doing it on camera to Fellow Citizens. Watch the following two videos. You will not see anarchists breaking windows and dumping over trash cans. You will see Fellow Citizens merely peaceably assembling, which according to the United States Constitution and Natural Law is not a privilege requiring a permit, but a right endowed upon all human beings at birth. See for yourself and decide who was in the wrong.


I’ve heard countless Tea Party protesters shouting “I want my country back!” Is this what you had in mind? If not, where were you? Even if you don’t agree with the ideals of the people on the street, you do agree that they had a right to be there, don’t you? You could have demonstrated against the Nazi tactics employed by these thugs in uniform if nothing else. Are you all fair weather fighters? If so, don’t bother protesting anymore. You don’t have the stomach for it; maybe your children will. If not, maybe your grandchildren will. The First Amendment applies to all of us, and if you stand idly by as these people have their First Amendment rights violated on camera, then you may be next.
