Letter to the Editor

Where is tea party on Big Oil subsidies?

Where is the tea party' when you need them?

The republicans have no problem taking money away for the old, young families and education, but I thought the Republican tea party freshmen would have the strength to stand up against giving Big Oil $2 billion of subsidies. I can see why the republicans couldn't; Big Oil gave them $128 million in 2010 to be still. Since the Republican National Party can't manage its own party's budget, it needs to accept money from any industry that needs influence in Washington like the medical and pharmaceutical mafia.

If we the people would just go vote, our country today wouldn't be for sale.

USA, for big business, by big business!
