You are not one on Fox. Sorry...

I may have misjudged you. I do not go to rallies or TEA parties. I am a regular Fox watcher. Never notice you there. Maybe I just don't recognize you. I watch a little before Bill O' Reilly through Gerta.
If you read the comments on this site, Tea gets accused by some liberals for every illegal offense to Democrats. Called racist. You calling us "angry" which is inflammatory. I think unjustly. I am not aware of any of those disgusting signs held by TEA members we are accused of. Check signs from other side held up against Bush. Many very nasty. You might be aware of movie made of death of Bush.
You must know "tea bags" is very close to that vulgar term. Other writer John F. use to use it often. I have begun to be vulgar to him. He has gone passed acceptable behavior in my book. I admit I should not go to his level. But I am no saint. Other commenters go after John F. as well. I wonder how long he will be on site.
Jamie you have every right to your liberal view. As I my conservative views. Can we not discuss without putting each other's philosophical views down ? Respect each other stance. Disagree absolutely.
It is well documented SEIU attacks on TEA members. One recently of tea supporter with foot on woman's head. Understand more to story. Video only catches portion of event. I want appropriate actions taken. I hate violence.
I haven't seen the racial make up of TEA. Majority white I must agree. Rich I don't know. Wasn't there many TEA candidates female and of different races ? I am sure is true.
I believe this video is beginning of TEA. I am a Day stock trader. Poor no. Rich no. I saved for retirement:

I am usually long winded as you know if you read me. Heavily opinionated to the right.
I can understand you not liking Rush. Beck too much. If you watch enough of Bill O’Reilly he’ll grow on you. Did me. Bill I think is fair. Most can accept Greta and Ex Gov. of Arkansas.
Write fire filled articles. But play fair. Don’t insight a riot. Pleaseeeee. It draws more comments I know. But at what cost.

Dear Bill Hedges,
oh I would miss you if you didn't write! I appreciate your spirited critique and you may be right that race is not a reason for the Tea Party's creation and uprising. But the demographics are as I stated, predominantly white et al.
Regards,
Jamie

"But it rose in political opposition to the first African-American president soon enough to deal him a serious blow less than two years after he took office."
WOW Jamie. You dream this stuff up ?
It can't be that obama did not do as he promised and opened up health care process. With CSPAN coverage. Etc. Passed without reading.
Jamie did you think all the polls was wrong ? Caused by lying special interest. This election result was forecast long ago and ignored. Many Democrat losers lost voting for obama's agenda. Exception Reid.
I don't write to you Jamie, you can not hear. Closed mind.
You I bet are still in denial of military trial at Gitmo. Isn't it suppose to be closed ? With trials in NYC condemning Bush.
You must be proud military overseas was denied right to vote…
