RYUN TO POWELL: WAKE UP
An Open Letter to Colin Powell from Ned Ryun, President of American Majority regarding Powell’s comments on ABC’s This Week regarding the Tea Party:
November 28, 2011
Secretary Powell:
As someone who works closely with thousands of tea party members and conservative grassroots activists across America, I disagreed with your recent comments on ABC’s This Week suggesting the Tea Party was a cause of the divisive and unproductive tone in Washington. You further stated that the Tea Party’s reluctance to compromise would not produce a winning Presidential candidate.
On the contrary, Tea Party members would agree that compromise is part of the legislative process. They know how the system works. However, when government spending is spiraling out of control and the nation is $15 trillion in debt, in no small part due to President Obama, there comes a time when Americans must say enough. There comes a time when people must make tough choices to turn America back from its course toward statism.

Stand for America. Stand with the majority.
America to Ryun: Wake up!
Americans who are actually concerned about our debt joined the Concord Coalition years ago. They didn’t suddenly decide it was a problem when the White House changed hands.
Americans who are actually concerned about Americans didn’t sit idly by, cheering on an Administration that wasted American lives and treasure on a war that had absolutely nothing to do with the terrorist threat, but was simply a convenient target to make it look like they were doing something. And Americans who actually want to make a difference don’t suckle at the teat of billionaire sugar daddies like Koch (like you do) or Soros.
America to Ryun: You wake up. We already have.
