I was an American today!
I attended a Tea party today...my first. It turned out the rally was an anti Obama rally. I was so disappointed. Not against policy, bills, actions but against our President...himself.
"Get Chicago out of the White House", many signs had written on them and "No Obama care" on most. There were no people sharing the oppositions in their faces or caring signs against what they were saying.
Is this what these tea parties are about? Against our President, where is the respect the man and the office should receive? If you hate the idea of Americans so much...get a passport.
After I left this rally, shaking my head. I drove down the road to a Support Health Care Reform rally.
Now at this rally, were many peeps of all walks of life and many people to voice the opposition. Actually, right in the face of many others.
But just because I believe something or like something different than you do, doesn't make me right and you wrong. It means we have different opinions. Why not value each opinion but have our own? We are not talking values on this one...just policy.
I want to give Obama a chance to see what he can do with the messes and ideals that he was handed. He honestly can't do anything worse. The United States will still be the United States after he leaves office, that will never change. But we need to try different things to clean our messes up. Turn off your radio stations and stop making these loud mouth men rich. They spread hate and laugh at us all the way to the bank.
Thank god we all have a voice and we have the right to gather and protest. Up with America and hail to the Chief!!!!
