    We need to take our country back from the peoplel WE elected to lead it. We need to trust and follow the conservative right wingers who encourage us to vote against our best interests. I am a liberal minded person who shares the same values you claim to fight for but you have no room for “progressives” like me. I am every bit the patriotic American than anybody in the tea party movement.
