Read What I See

     Most of the media chose to ignore the pleas of the one million plus citizens that gathered nationwide on April 15^th to protest our government fiscal irresponsibility and other issues.  Not until after the events had taken place they decided to give them coverage and then it was mostly negative.  CNN’s Anderson Cooper went as far as trying to ridicule and insult the protesters by referring to them as teabaggers (a male homosexual act).  Janeane Garofalo without even taking the time to glance at the event called families, children, retirees, ordinary Americans and blacks that gathered to protest, racists rednecks and repeated Cooper's teabaggers insulting remark as you can see on this video.  Barack Obama claimed that he was unaware that such events were taking place as a dismissal of the importance of people protesting their discontent of government’s policies and lack of representation.

Follow up:

     There are well over a thousand rallies planned nationwide for July 3^rd and 4^th.  Who is covering this event in the media other than Fox News?  We are yet to see what kind of turnout there will be this time but will the media even make reference that such events are taking place?  The Tea Party Day website has rallies listed in over 1,300 cities nationwide.  In addition, there are rallies planned that have not made their listing.  We could wonder again where is the American media coverage on the plea of their people who feel betrayed and oppress by leaders who fail to represent them.

     Recently we saw a coup in Honduras that deposed an elected President.  It has received condemnation from the world and our President.  Obama was quick to defend a President that was ousted because he wanted to impose dictatorial behavior by changing the Constitution that would allow him to serve for extended terms.  We already saw the same thing happen in Venezuela when Hugo Chavez took advantage of his popularity to change the Constitution.  Most likely, our citizens would feel entitled to oust a President that wanted to change our Constitution and make himself a Dictator.  The President of Honduras still would be in office if he had just allowed the Constitution to stand and let his term expire.  This kind of disregard for the Constitution is one of the main gripes that the TEA Party protesters advocate.

     We saw during the last couple of weeks all of the media coverage that protesters in Iran received.  Hundreds of thousands protested in discontent with their government and the U.S. media took notice.  The media already is aware of the TEA Party protest that are about to take place this Friday and Saturday but will they cover the plea of their own citizens with the same passion that they covered the plea of foreigners?  Most likely, our President will also dismiss the TEA Parties as he dismissed the protesters in Iran for ten days and only raised concerns after they had been suppressed.  After all, what is the difference between Iran and the U.S.?  In Iran, the Ayatollahs control the country and choose who can run for public office.  Here is big money interest.  The Federal Reserve is controlled by the interests of JP Morgan Chase, New York Mellon, Goldman Sachs and others.  It is all interweaved, Henry Paulson used to be CEO of Goldman Sachs.  Tim Geithner was groomed at Kissinger and Associates before going to work at the Treasury Department.  See if this quote from Henry Kissinger is relevant to what we see happening in our lives “Who controls the food supply controls the people; who controls the energy can control whole continents; who controls money can control the world.”  Henry Kissinger is closely associated with the Council on Foreign relations, The Trilateral Commission and David Rockefeller.  David Rockefeller founded the Trilateral Commission and holds a big chunk of JP Morgan Chase which merged with New York Mellon.  According to Kissinger, following the money trail will take you to where the real power is.  Considering this, it is easy to understand that opposite to make believe most of our elected officials do not work for the people.  So we could ask what do Iran’s and U.S. citizens have in common? They feel oppressed, without representation and are protesting.

     Most people still don’t realize the condition of our economy and where it is heading.  The TEA Party peaceful movement that is growing out of discontent and with no political affiliation has the potential to turn into something major.  Desperation and anger is increasing in this economic environment that has no happy solution.  We are most likely to see the protesting numbers to increase with the suffering of our citizens.  There are eighteen States that have already run out of unemployment funds and are borrowing to keep those people from going hungry.  Finally, Obama publicly admitted that the unemployment situation will get much worse in spite of the stimulus spending and unrealistic optimism on the outlook of the economy.  There is a big difference between our citizens and those of other countries for when all hope is lost and they feel oppressed, hungry and abused the U.S. citizens have the second amendment that our forefathers left us. 

     We can wonder how long the big money controlled media can continue to side with the government and fail to represent the people.  It is about time that they stop offering false rays of hope while our citizens lose everything they own.

     The TEA (Tax Enough Already) Party rallies are not just protests.  These protests are bringing together an advocacy group that demands of the government to follow our Constitution and the Bill of Rights while protecting the true interest of the people and not that of the special interests they are representing.

     What better way to celebrate Independence Day than to gather demanding that our independence is respected. Let the will of the people, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights be the law of the land.

     Have a happy July 4^th
