It's not often that you will find me driving along the Parkway on my way to work laughing hysterically. But there I was on my way to work this morning when the news came on the radio  with the story that The One was was going to hold a Fiscal Responsibility Summit. I was laughing so hard and so loud I missed the rest of the story and most of the rest of the news as well.

I was sure it had to be a joke. The news reports that The One was preparing a budget designed to cut the deficit in half in four years was the set up. The Fiscal Responsibility Summit was the punch line.
 
The Problem is, it's really not all that funny.


I've been doing a little digging and from what I can tell, Fairfield, CT does not require a permit for any sort of organized demonstration. I'm giving serious thought to organizing a "Tea Party." I think the Citi Bank branch on Black Rock Turnpike might be an appropriatly symbolic spot. (Plus there's lost's of traffic, parking and nearby food!) If you're in this area and would like to participate or help get it going - drop me a line.
