I was never a big coffee drinker growing up. Even when it kind of became a thing I didn 't really know what to do with it. In college I became a small fan of chocolate covered espresso beans, but even then didn 't take an amazing liking to coffee. As I 've traveled though, and noting that I am still a huge fan of premium tea, I 've gained a certain appreciation for coffee. Here 's the top 3 'non commercial ' coffee places near where I live.

We see our diversity as a strength, not a weakness, because we believe that faithful deliberation from multiple vantage points is the best way to achieve the common good." So, what do they advocate? Not too much, save for discussion. This is where they want change in Congress as well. They are opposed to the adamant stance of the incumbents which, until last Sunday, has left Congress in a Chinese Finger Trap with both sides pulling. The Tea Party would like to see a vast change in the Congress as well come November, and in the hopes that their voices will be a rallying cry, the GOP has taken them into its desperate arms.
