Senator John McCain quoted from a Wall Street Journal editorial in calling Tea Partiers "hobbits" on the floor of the Senate the other day (click here for the story). He also bashed 2010 Senate candidates Sharon Angle and Christine O'Donnell.
Below is the full text of Sharon Angle's response, which says pretty much all that needs to be said. I would also like to put a plug in for a new Website:www.dontpissonmemccain.com. _________________________________________ 'A Statement from a ‘TEA Party Hobbit’ |

This is a fun story about young people getting involved in politics, and the problems that the established order has in dealing with them. That shift becomes more marked and more rapid as we see the old political batons being passed from one generation to the next.______________________________________________________________ Sarah Andersonis peculiar. For one thing, she's a Republican. At 22, that makes her a statistical anomaly, even in El Paso County. She spent her formative years reading a series of books that explain the free-market theory to teens. |
