Book Presentation
Give Us Liberty by Dick Armey and Matt Kibbe
Book Abstract
Across the nation, citizens are becoming concerned about the growth of government and the size of the federal budget. They are saying: “Enough is enough.” Rather than sitting back and doing nothing, concerned citizens are forming themselves into the Tea Party movement– which draws its name and some inspiration from the Boston Tea Party of 1773. The Tea Party is a grassroots political movement based on four recurring themes:
- The United States Constitution is the blueprint for good government.
- In a free society, actions should have consequences.
- The federal government is addicted to spending which results in higher taxes.
- Government is now a bloated and invasive bureaucracy which is too big to succeed.
The solution to all these problems is in our own hands and it’s time to do something about it.
