Curtain

Icicle curtain /

Ragged winter ends.

Tea Party misses the real villains

http://www.alternet.org/story/146502/the_tea_party_crowd_needs_to_wake_up_to_who_the_real_villains_are

The Tea Party folk won’t wake up to the real issue. The don’t want to, and there are political elements, mostly tied to the Republican Party, but not exclusively, that don’t want the people, Tea Party or otherwise, to look behind the curtain, because these wizards (of Wall Street) won’t take you home; but they’ll take your home, and your car, and your bank account, and your credit rating. Nope, we’re definitely not in Kansas anymore. Unfortunately, the people of Kansas — and elsewhere — don’t seem to care. This curtain is not of cloth nor iron, but gold, and the shininess of greed is too hard to breach.
