Taxpayers are becoming increasingly militant as they learn more about what is being done in their name in the nation’s capitol by the White House and Congress. And the people doing it to them seem to be either determined to avoid explaining themselves, or quite willing to assault those who dare to question them.
For the former, see this video of a recent rally of patriotic constituents who tried to confront Rep. Tim Bishop, D-NY. For the latter, check out this video of Rep. Alan Grayson, D-FL, stiff-arming of a politically aware citizen with a camera and a question. Republicans who assume they are exempt from such irate citizens should think very carefully before acting on such a tenuous assumption.
These are not isolated incidents. The seething anger and growing militancy of otherwise normal, law-abiding tax-payers is perhaps the most under-reported political story of the year.
