"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Tea Party
Went to the "Tea Party" at the State Capital in Hartford yesterday as you can see from the above picture. There was a great turnout (about 3000 people). Young and old, rich and poor, and a mix politically across the board. Everyone there is fed up with government taxation and intrusion in our lives. Basically the message was that if you are an incumbent, regardless of your party, "watch out". The theme of the day was "Throw the bums out". I have a feeling that this movement is just getting started. I sure hope so!!
