    So you're going give up?  

    That's not what Mr. Reagan taught us, was it?  

    Regards,

   We have never bought anything that we couldn't afford.
    Wall Street and the government will continue. These people will prosper right on.  The rich will get richer and the poor will get poorer despite Barry, the magical muslim.  This is my opinion.

  My parents are much more important than any Tea Party.  
  Tea Parties will come and go.  My parents will go and soon.

    Susan, 

        You mean more to the more UNimportant things (bailing out businesses that should go under because of bad business practice that is only going to continue) and bailing out those who bought a house they couldn't afford.  

        I can appreciate the ill parents thing.  I lost both of my parents in the last eight years.  But I still would've been at the Tea Party.  

        Regards, 



                                                                        Fred

      Fred,

      Takes little energy but does take time.  Sometimes we are a little short on that and can't always fit everything in our schedule. That's been a problem here with ill parents.

      Maybe Obama, the magical muslim can add more time to each day. He's certainly adding more, more, more to other important things.

        Susan, 

            I am with you on the apathy part.  

            But how much energy does it take to go to a Tea Party?  It's like a powerful audio amplifier.  A little sound goes in from each person and a deafening roar comes out.  

            Regards,

          Fred,

          My Rebel spirit was decades ago in high school. 
           I'm now 54 years old and will occasionally get fired up with some Rebel spirit but that was long ago and this is now.   I loved my school days dearly.

          I am very patriotic and while I may not be able to attend tea parties, I write my senators and congressmen about these and other issues.
          I feel this is my public responsibility as an American citizen.  

          Apathy is killing our country.

          Susan

            Susan, 

                HOPEFULLY?  

                Where's your patriotism?  Where's your Rebel Spirit?  

                I wonder how we'd be living if the folks that fired 'The Shots Heard Around The World' hadn't been able to attend?  

                I view going to those Tea Parties not only as my public responsibilty but as distinct pride in my American citizenship. 

                What say the rest of you?  

                God Bless America, 



                                                                        Fred, WB4AEJ

              Fred,

              Thanks for the clarification on Obama, the magical muslim.  

              I didn't attend the tea party here.  Hopefully I can attend next time.  

              Some of the democrats are having a "field day" with the tea parties.  As I understand, the protests were are peaceful.   The dems are used to radical protesters and such.  That is okay with them.

              There's an ad that is targeted for women,  "Forty is the new twenty."  
              This is targeted for the USA:   "Socialism is the new democracy."

              Have a good day.  
              Everyone keep praying for this country.

              Susan

                Well, 

                    I looked up that on the Internet.  I see a number of sites that claim he said it.  I'm amazed but in retrospect, I guess that not too surprising coming out of Teddy.  He hit it on the nail.  

                    He's a socialist president.  

                    I was proud to be at that protest here in Las Cruces last week.  The caliber of person that was present spoke hoards for those who had previously been 
                'the silent majority'.  

                    I read the Gadsden Times and I was very disappointed to read that there were only thirty-five people at the Gadsden Tea Party (http://www.gadsdentimes.com/article/20090415/NEWS/904159987).  I find that hard to believe knowing the people of Gadsden as I have had the pleasure.  Read this: http://www.gadsdentimes.com/article/20090416/NEWS/904174010 .  It seems a bit inconsistent with the former article.  

                    There's going to be another Tea Party on July 4.  I intend to be there.  I hope all of you will be at yours.  As FunBobbasso said, 'We're mad as hell and we want our country back'.  

                    God Bless America, 



                                                                            Fred

                  Fred,

                  Yes, Teddy said that or I always thought he did. 

                  Obama is one dangerous man.  It didn't take him very long to show his true colors.
                  He wants the US to change our behavior and show the Muslim world new respect?  HA
                  That's just what he'll get too because this liberal crazed media will push for it.

                  Obama, the Islamic president

                    Susan, 

                        Did Teddy really say that?  

                        Whether he did or not, it seems awfully appropriate.  

                        Obama, the socialist president.

                      I suppose it was Fred, but I prefer one of Teddy's better known quotes and it's very fitting for today.

                      Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president.

                        Susan, 

                            One of my favorites was one that Teddy Roosevelt said:  

                            Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorius triumphs, though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.  

                            Isn't that what we did when we were all in the Rebel Band?  *I* think it was.  

                            Regards, 



                                                                                        Fred

                          Fred,

                          I have no idea what a moment like this means and I'm sure many of the Rebel Band members don't either. 
                          But then again, the experience is in your heart and I can't speak for them.

                          I pray for her and what God has in store for her and her career. She seems very humble.  
                          I hope she's for real and not "fooling" everyone with her amateur performance.

                          Susan

                          The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today.

                            Susan, 

                                Aside from Rebel Band members, few people in the world ever have an experience like that.  We know what a moment like that means because we've all been there.  But most others have not.  

                                It is my prayer that God Blesses her and her career.  

                                I think we'll be hearing of her again very soon.  

                                Regards,

                              Fred,

                              She is great, there's no doubt about that.  I wonder if there's more to her than meets the eye.
                              She appears to be a seasoned professional to me.  As phenomenal as it is, her voice sounds trained.   She walked on the stage and commanded it.  She used her arms perfectly as well as the microphone.  These things just make me wonder.

                              She is fantastic and I love to hear her sing.   

                              Susan
