 In contrast to the 800 TEA baggers who rallied at the county courthouse a few months back, this one was thankfully and mostly free of the overt racism that pervaded that former event. And though there were head-nods to illegal immigrants and keeping America “safe” from terrorists (don’t even get me started) and “overthrowing” Obamacare, the main thrust of the anger of this entirely white, late 40′s, solidly middle class crowd was… the Republican Party. . . . → Read More: News That Matters – Monday, July 26, 2010

A note to Mayor Bloomberg: Early yesterday morning you said, “Terrorists who want to take our freedoms away from us focus on the symbol of those freedoms, and that’s New York City.” Mr. Mayor, the only terrorists who can take away our freedoms are ourselves.
