I, David William Hedrick, a member of the silent majority, decided that I was not going to be silent anymore. So, I let U.S. Congressman Brian Baird have it. I was one questioner out of 38, that was called at random from an audience that started at 3,000 earlier in the evening. Not expecting to be called on, I quickly scratched what I wanted to say on a borrowed piece of paper and with a pen that I borrowed from someone else in the audience minutes before I spoke. So much for the planned talking points of the right wing conspiracy. David William Hedrick www.davidwhedrick.com

As a Tea Partier and former life long Dem, the only thing that all of us care about is fiscal responsiblity in DC! At my first official Tea Party, I met an atheist Libertarian standing for the same as me.

I apologize. I was just trolling because I really don't like David Hedrick. You're right that we owe our service men respect in general BUT that doesn't mean we have to applaud them when they spew nonsense about how how communism and fascism are the same thing; a person who thinks we fought WW2 to protect ourselves from universal health care does not deserve my respect. I also think Hedrick is a shameless self-promoter who tried to build a career from this one moment.

The third and final issue I take is that the Tea Party is furthering the interests of ordinary people. I believe that Tea Party members THINK that their ideologies are furthering their interests but I think they are very confused. I think the way they vote doesn't help them individually either economically/material or ..i guess ethically/morally (I'm talking about those set of issues that get all the media coverage like "gay rights" and abortion legislation).

..like I don't think Roger Ailes really has any conviction (nor R.Murdoch) beyond furthering the interests of NewsCorp - if they thought running a leftist media empire would make them more money, they would in heartbeat (just as would Universal with MSNBC shift far right).
Another thing is that the start of the Tea Party was absolutely orchestrated and top down - it was the opposite of a spontaneous grass roots movement - which is why I have trouble thinking of it as populist.

First thanks for replying so civilly. I was a bit rude with my posts. Anyway, I have a few issues with this. First, I don't even think of mainstream media as being essentially political. Their allegiance, in my opinion, is to profit alone and not to 'truth' or any political ideology (or national interest). And this is the great misconception about the mainstream media. I've read that every single major tv news outlet and newspaper is owned by 1 of 6 corporations: Disney, Viacom, NewsCorp.
