The Absurd Report

With the overwhelming amount of chatter coming from the Democrats about the uproar Americans are causing at town hall meetings, I thought it would be important to take a look at the people who were behind this attitude, this belief that the people should come before those in government and demand they listen.

There are a select few who are the most outspoken, some more extreme than others. Some of these �political terrorists� simply demand liberty, while others speak plainly of the need for bloody revolution every now and then. They all, however, are quoted and inspire the rabble-rousers disrupting today�s town hall meetings.

Read the words they use. When you do, you get a look at the attitude of today�s town hall protester.

John Jay has one quote that right wingers love, especially the more libertarian ones. It�s pretty simple:

No power on earth has a right to take our property from us without our consent.

And despite what the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals says, these folks still consider money their property, meaning whenever taxes are collected, they feel they are having personal property taken from them without their consent. I�ve heard more than one protestor say they don�t like to have their property taken from them and given to someone else. Where do you think they learned that type of thinking?

Hint: John Jay.

He wrote quite a bit as well. He, along with Madison and Alexander Hamilton, wrote the Federalist Papers, which are still used today to try to defend right wing positions.

(I wrote this article very tongue in cheek. I wanted it to come across as a bit sarcastic, but it was hard for me to pull off, as I hated talking bad about these folks. I hope you understand that I am trying to illustrate the stupidity of the Democrats in labeling the protesters as a mob, or political terrorists, when they are following the role models below, the first Americans to rage against the tyranny of the established government. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks.) – Duane Lester
