Tea'd Off

I've been thinking about this for a few days, ever since Charles Grassley made his AIG comments, and I believe it is time for all those in Washington to do the honorable thing and fall on their political swords.

I have no doubt that there are a few good people there, but they've all been tainted (Toxic is how George Will put it).

Every decision that comes out of that cesspool is worse than the one before and the scientific community is united in that fact.

We have been ill served by the professional politicians, in the words of James Clarke...

A politician thinks of the next election; a statesman of the next generation.

I'm glad to see the Tea Parties spring up, but they would accomplish a lot more if they were coordinated on one specific day throughout the nation, like the rallies for illegals.

In Central Iowa there are going to be two, one is scheduled for April 11th and another on April 15th.

That deludes the product and weakens what needs to be accomplished.

I hope the Tea Party momentum continues forward to hold people accountable, instead of just a way to blow off steam.
