Bills Sponsored by the Tea Party
Bills Sponsored by the Tea Party
Here is a list from archives.politicususa.com:
1. Against Women’s Reproductive Rights: over two dozen bills.
2. Against Special Supplemental Nutritional Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC). This could have been full funded by one week of Bush’s tax cuts for millionaires.
3. Against National Public Radio. (One could wonder if they would like to replace it with FOX news?)
4. Against Desegregation. Check out Minnesota
5. Against High-Speed Rail. Wisconsin, Ohio and Florida all came out against these improvements.
6. Against Marriage Equality and the Anti-Gay Agenda.
7. Against Net Neutrality. They want corporations to control the internet to better their profits and content.
8. Against Obama. No surprise, but the birther argument goes on and on as well as opposing anything Obama wants; do anything to get rid of him.
9. Against Unions and Collective Bargaining/against middle class. This is really class warfare ignoring that when unions are strong the middle class is strong and it converse.
10.Against Immigration. Arizona and Texas led this to the point of encouraging vigilantism.
11. Against Child Labor Laws. Sen. Mike Lee of Utah says it is unconstitutional ignoring the Labor Standards Acts of 1938.
12.Against the right to Vote. All the ID stuff and college students.
13.Against Islam/Islamophobia.
14.Against the Federal Government (Tentherism).
15.Against Gun Control. Let’s let them hit the bars packing concealed weapons.
16.Against Science, the Environment and Health.
17.Against Education/Historical Revisionism. All the creationism stuff, also defunding Head Start, cutting teacher’s pay,
There is a lot the Tea Party is against. What are they for? It appears like they would like to return to the 19th century. Read some history and see what a mess that time was. It also seems important to make no distinction between the country founded in 1776 and our current country.
Nihilism if the belief that a society’s political and social institutions are so bad they should be destroyed. They seem to have this belief as was advocated by the 19th century Russian Party.
While I appreciate the Tea Partys frustration with government and the status quo there agenda seems lets just make things worse. They seem to lack compassion for fellow human beings and would take us back to the law of the jungle or the survival of the fittest. The claim Christian traditions but do not follow Christian ethics of compassion, care and love for their fellow human beings. They have unwittingly become the pawns of big businesses and those who promote inequality in government and economics.

Bills Scrambled Eggs Really Are That Good
Bills Scrambled Eggs Really Are That Good
Some things are over-hyped. Like Facebook. Kylies bum. And the Toyota Prius. But Bills scrambled eggs really are the best you will ever have. Anywhere. In the world. Or the Galaxy. Or the entire Universe. So silky. So light. So creamy. So good.
At one point, Mr Bills himself came flouncing through the restaurant, and I was almost tempted to bow down and indenture myself as his life-long slave. But then I tasted the crappy bacon. How can such fine eggs be served with such pathetic, soggy little parcels of bacon? Shame, shame, shame...
