With the advent of the Tea Party, many people have asked me, when I dress in my 18th century garb, if I am a Tea Party member. I tell them, "Yes, every December 16th when we throw the tea into Boston Harbor." Never judge a book by its cover. So Iott portrays a German soldier, big deal! Several friends of mine portray 18th century British soldiers but that doesn't make them anti-American. Some guys portray Rev War era Indians but that doesn't make them anti-white. Joy's right. The press can take something VERY minor way out of context. All we are essentially are a bunch of kids playing war like we did when we actually were kids. To the "gentlemen of the press"; ITS JUST A HOBBY!
