"Reining In" the Tea Parties

That’s the “buzzword” in Washington right now. Democrats apparently are blissfully unaware that the Tea Party people are THE power in the Republican Party now, and won’t be “reined in” by the usual “power structure” that think like liberals while masquerading as Republicans. They just can’t understand that power has shifted in Washington and the “same old business” is not going to wash. Their “giveaways” won’t be routinely approved any more. The big “pork packages they’ve promised their friends will not be approved. Every expenditure will be examined in detail and unnecessary ones will be refused. Budgets will be cut. Real cuts, not the Washington kind where a reduction in the INCREASE is called a “cut.” The Democrats and other liberals had better wake up, or they’ll be the next round of firings in Congress, along with Obama in 2012. If the Tea Partiers don't do this, THEY will be replaced in 2012. (Just common sense)
