You don't get my question: the Tea Party claims it is non-partisan and opposes all expansion of government, yet not one such protest in 2001 over an unnecessary Cabinet Department. We did not need DHS to face the perpetual threat of a nuclear world war with the Soviet Union. Are we claiming Arabs who live in caves using AKs taken from the body of Soviets they killed in the 1980s are so much more formidable as to mandate it now? If so, we might as well declare the USA over and I'll accept the position of President of the Restored Confederacy.
