Tea anyone?

Rep. Joe Walsh(Tea Party-Ill.) is one of eight congressmen who signed a letter to House Speaker John Boehner, requesting that their surplus office allocation be sent back to the Treasury, to pay down the national debt. Calling it a “Gift to Reduce the Debt Held by the Public,” the congressmen told Boehner they “have accumulated more than $1.4 million in unused personal office funding; we believe this funding must be used immediately to address the fiscal emergency caused by our ever increasing national debt.

?"Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: The requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree besides the river of truth, and tell the whole world----no, YOU move." Captain America...

If you believe that things could be worse? Simply having a liberal as president when there is no money to spend has done a world of bad. I would not endorse your chosen tea partiers for president, but I do believe that a beginning to cleaning up the mess that has become the normal in DC is long overdue. Now if you want to talk real presidential candidates How about Mike Huckabee and Michele Bachmann? I believe they could make some changes that I would get behind!

If you think things couldn't get any worse, how about the Tea Party dream ticket: Pres. Sarah Palin, Vice Pres. Christine O'Donnell !! No thanks

I believe that the vote that is cast should go to the person intended, is the only fair way that will work. The electoral collage was formed to ensure educated elections took place as the country was so large that it took forever to get the information to all of the people. I do not believe that is an issue any longer.

You are 100% correct on the entitlements and those will be under the microscope for corruption but how can you call for honesty when you are throwing taxpayer dollars into the fan? I say clean up the act entirely.

1.) The fiscal problem stems from entitlements, not discretionary spending, making it much harder to rein in spending.

2.) You do realize that ending the Electoral College would have a huge negative impact on small states where the Tea Party is most likely to win? States like Wyoming have a disproportionate share of the Electoral College vote.
