There's something fishy about this latest in the Administration's imponderable actions. President Obama spoke in Quincy, Illinois on Thursday, April 29 and a few hundred Tea Party enthusiasts showed up. The swat team was called out and stood as a barrier before the Tea Party members as they sang the National Anthem and "God Bless America." You can see the event on You Tube at

This is who showed up

I'm sure that the President and his advisers had reason to summon the moderately heavy artillery. Maybe he was reflecting on something that Bill Ayres told him about rioting.
Here's an interesting view of rioting:
I wonder why Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama and the rest of the radical left call Tea Party people "Astroturf" and "members of a mob." It's hard to imagine folks who carry signs, lawn chairs and copies of the Constitution and waving American Flags as rioters. Is it possible that Tea Party critics can only relate to freedom of expression as an extension of violence?
Something's Fishy with their thinking!
I've been to many Tea Party events and I've found the people to be so law abiding that the police looked bored. We have cheered the police and I've thanked them for their service and protection.
