My Letter to the Editor in today’s Star-Telegram, 8 December 2010

Dear Editor,

My family, friends and everyone in earshot of us complained about the Tea Party’s presence in the Grapevine Christmas Parade.

While Democrats are excluded from paying for and working a voter registration booth at city festivals next to jewelry sales and car dealerships, another partisan group yells “go Tea Party” at a nonpolitical holiday event.

Double standards aside, a Christmas celebration is not the place for politics.
