TEA PARTY: Pinpoint sources of distortion

| January 19, 2011 4:18 AM

First responding to Mr. Hoot Gaylor; from what I saw, there was only one letter writer who responded to his letter when the author proceeded to compare what Mr. Gaylor had said to the Coeur d'Alene Press editorial. I saw no other letters that had anything to say about Mr. Gaylor and his defense of the "TEA Party" after that. If anyone is offering distortions, that would be Mr. Gaylor. Oh, and I believe that the "TEA Party" has itself rather unfortunately compared our president to Hitler ...

As for Gene and Candace Lammon, I'll believe that the Republican Party is serious about reducing debt when they start raising taxes. Cutting spending won't by itself reduce the debt.
