Response when invited to a tea party protest:
"No thanks. I like taxes. They pay for our firefighers, our police, our parks and our schools. In fact I think you should pay more of them."

This wasn't my reply, but a business partner who was invited by a local Chamber of Commerce president.

Bet she won't be inviting him to any more right winger protest rallies!

5. I would have LOVED to attend.....
Unfortunately, I painted a chair recently, and I have to keep a close eye on the paint while it dries.
