Still, to simply stall legislative actions or call for return to the disastrous Republican policies of the Bush years will bring only more mistakes.<br /><br />As for the Tea Party factions, anger seems to be their only mode of discourse.Joe Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04326800254526438870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15078815.post-89906544210120299172010-02-24T23:14:04.957-05:002010-02-24T23:14:04.957-05:00Thanks for the comment Anon -

The world was a simpler place. A scoop of ice cream was all we needed. These are the emotions that Glenn Beck tries to resuscitate in us-the warm fuzzys<br />when a scoop of ice cream from grandma meant everything. Obviously Glenn is a white male whose grandma had ice cream in the freezer and if she didn't he could go to the local drugstore counter and order one up. Aah the good old days when chains were removed but human souls were still contained.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
