What took so long to get angry?

The author of this gem is unknown. I've condensed it here. The whole thing is worth reading.

To the members of the Tea Party:

You didn't get mad when the Supremes stopped a legal recount and appointed a president.

… when a covert CIA agent was outed.

… when we illegally invaded a country that was no threat to us and spent over 800 billion on that war.

… when Bush ran up 10 trillion in combined budget and current account deficits.

… when we let New Orleans drown.

… when the rich got a trillion dollars in tax breaks and cuts.

… over the worst decade of job creation.

… when 200,000 citizens lost their lives because they had no health insurance.

… when lax Bush policies caused US citizens to lose 12 trillion in investment, retirement, and home values.

No, you got mad when…

a black man was elected president and decided Americans deserved the right to see a doctor.
