Liberals, Progressives, Socialists, Commies, or whatever the Left calls themselves these days are hard-headed bunch. They ignored the Tea Parties and called them "astroturf". They still cling to the 2+2=5 belief that everything is "Hitler" Bush's fault. They ignore polls. They ignore economic data. They ignore anything that might be a real downer.
One thing they can't ignore is Velma Hart, The One Woman Tea Party.
Recently, at a town hall meeting, Mrs. Hart had this to say to Chairman Obama:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Quite frankly, I’m exhausted. I'm exhausted of defending you, defending your administration, defending the mantle of change that I voted for, and deeply disappointed with where we are right now.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The media blew it off. Even FOX News didn't do that quote justice. This is a quote that needs to go down in history. In other words, it's not the useless crap that dribbled out of Stephen Colbert's mouth during his Congressional testimony. Here is a middle aged woman, unremarkable in every way, drawing the strength to tell the leader of the Free World to get his act together. She's not a politician. She's not a talking head on a cable news network. She's not running for office or looking for stardom. Velma Hart is a hero.
Yeah, yeah, Velma Hart is a Democrat, but I really want you to sit and think about the bravery she showed. There are a lot of people who talk tough and say "I'll give that Obama a piece of my mind, if I ever meet him." Yet, when push comes to shove, they wouldn't. They would get all caught up in the Presidential mystique. Velma Hart did not. She stood firm, like our Founders did against the king. You want to know what the Tea Party is all about ? It's about the Velma Harts struggling to survive in this Obama created mess.
God bless you, Mrs. Hart. You're one in a million.
