Every cause needs a victim

Have you ever noticed the left always has to find a victim? Think about it, whenever anyone on the right opposes something they support, the first thing the left does is find a group who can be the victims. They can always find a group to be a victim, even if they have to invent one.

Sowing the seeds of liberty

Once again I have been thinking about the tea party movement and the direction it is headed, and what better place to write about it than right here on the Sturbridge Tea Party blog. At our most recent meeting this very subject came up, and as these things tend to do, it has been swimming around in my head.

As I have written previously in this blog, on June 1, there was a tornado which went through the western and central part of Massachusetts, claiming three lives and causing extensive damage to several communities. Many groups and organizations have come together to provide assistance such as temporary housing, food and clothing and debris removal. These are all good and necessary things which need to be done.
