Mad Hatter Joe Miller

The New Tea Party has declared war on the minimum wage and the working poor.  If some of these loons take office, this could prove to be devastating for the working poor in the United States. Armed with there very literal and limited interpretation of the Constitution, they are going to attack some very basic principles that we cherish here in the United States.  Most of us are pretty confident our children will not have to work in the factories, however, these Tea Party Patriots want to undo many of our child and labor laws.  Take for instance Joe Miller of Alaska.  He makes outrageous claims that the minimum wage and child labor laws are unconstitutional.  http://voices.washingtonpost.com/plum-line/2010/10/does_joe_miller_think_child_la.html
So for me, this extreme move to the Right is dangerous for our Country.  They teabaggers intend to declare war on bare minimum human decency and use the Constitution as their weapon,  All of this is a clever disguise for true motives.  They want to get into office to get the rich richer, and to maintain the current balance of power.  So the only solution I can offer is for the democratic base to get mobilized against this dangerous trend.  They intend to undermine years of progress we have made toward a more inclusive democracy.  Trust me, they know what they are doing.  They are taking advantage of people's ignorance and fear.  Those type of opportunistic politicians will exploit vulnerabilities as every opportunity.  It shows real cowardice, because children cannot vote, and they look to us for their protection.  Please America, don't let them down.
