Ruth,
I heard today that the Gov't is throwing the tea bags away. It seems they are afraid of the possibility of "foreign" substances. Just send the tea bag tag and string. I think (hope) they will understand the message. This way they do not have to fear that we are trying to harm them. Strange how they worry so much about themselves but don't give a rat's a__ about the death threats to the AIG bonus recipients.
I just recently bought (legally) a gun and I am stockpiling ammo. WHY? I heard that the suppliers of the raw materials are doing 85-90 % business with the Gov't. Makes sense. Most suppliers are out of stock of the ammo for the private gun owners. These boneheads on the Hill know that if they try to confiscate our guns, there will be hell to pay. BUT, they also know that a gun without bullets is the same as no gun at all.
I hope to GOD we can turn this mess around, but I fear that time is running out. So, "giving this guy a chance" would surely bring us to the point of no return.
Now is the time - not later. Later may be too late.
