Quite a few of the letters posted recently have a tea party slant. Apparently these people get their information from Fox News. Fox News, a station which portrays itself as fair and balanced, but whose parent firm recently donated $1 million to the Republican Governors Association. Fox is well named after a devious, crafty creature. When this Fox makes a noise the viewers react accordingly, much like chickens would, and start clucking on cue about Obama as a Muslim, Democrats as the cause of all societal ills, or whatever hyped-up nothingness the station has chosen to promote.
The majority of Americans are too intelligent to fall for this propaganda. At least, I hope so. If not, and some of these tea party candidates actually are elected into office, it will be bad for the country, as they will fail miserably, but will be very good for Democratic prospects in 2012.
