On My mind

Welcome to Tea Time. 

Have you ever been to a political Tea Party? I have been to a few and honestly had a great time.  The speakers were very informative, the huge crowd was very welcoming, the atmosphere was lively and very positive.
With the amount of people that were there, some in the media were expecting a less than peaceful assembly.  Nancy Pelosi in one interview made the Tea Party sound like a crazed riot, but the truth about the gatherings proved her wrong.   
Is it surprising that she and Obama totally support the  "Occupy 
WallStreet" group in New York?   I can't conceive of the thought process that can compare the two groups and see the New York mess as anywhere near the dignity and pride of country that is a hallmark of the Tea Party functions I have attended.  
I think that the parents of many of the students that are in the New York occupation must be really embarrassed at the behavior of their children,  I know I'd be mortified if my child defecated on a police car, wouldn't most moms?  Then there are the couples copulating in public and walking around nude in the park!  Can't say this type of behavior was ever evident at a Tea Party!  
There has been reported violence within this assembly of people.
 I wasn't surprised after viewing a news program that showed the protest. This group of people, while having a right to protest don't seem to understand what they are for or against. It appears to be a very unorganized group of people that have extreme feelings about the economy but do not have a focused point of view. I remember when Pelosi warned the public about the violence expected of the Tea Party.  Well we all know that never happened,  the Tea Party was very well organized, the message clear and concise.  
Well I have a Marching Band competition to get to so my thoughts for the day are finished for now. 
God Bless
