"Tea Party" in Orlando

Nearby Disneyworld may be the "happiest place on Earth" but 4,000 residents of nearby Orlando are not so happy. In fact, they're "mad as hell".
"We're really scared about what's happening in our country," said Debby Whisenand, 71, of Largo in Pinellas County. She waved a sign that read "The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money" on one side, and "You can't blame Bush anymore" on the other.
Socialism! Why, you'd have to be an idiot to endorse socialism!



Now, in point of fact, Florida doesn't do so badly when it comes to redistribution of wealth. For every dollar they send to Washington, they get $1.08 back. That's right in the middle, 26th place among the fifty states. Here in Connecticut -- 69 cents. 48th place. (Thank you, big spending Democrats.)
