		<description>I believe that if it had been scheduled on a Saturday there would have been more people able to attend.  I had to ask my boss for a day off from work to attend.  Unlike the left most Conservatives are holding jobs and cannot afford to just take a day off to protest.</description>

		<description>The botox marionette&#039;s opinion is truly remarkable, especially when you consider she killed a bill which would have extended the minimum wage to citizens of Guam and the Marshall Islands where her husband is an owner of seafood canning(Charlie the tuna anyone?)operations.  I suppose it&#039;s all right for people to live in abject poverty so long as hubby and friends become even richer.  What gall ... can&#039;t wait to vote next year.</description>

		<description>MM is the most articulate, precise commentator on tv. If what she suggested is true, that the elites were taken by surprise by the turnout, I am very encouraged

If MM ever gives up the fight, then will I be worried

I am very proud and appreciative of those who went to the gatherings

Watching the CNN interview with the Dad, I thought of the news massaging in the movie &#039;Running Man&#039;. Ironic that Schwarzenneger who starred in that movie as the anti hero is now an establishment player 

The CNN reporter was despicable &quot;I think you get the tenor it, it is anti government, anti CNN....&quot; not letting the father finish his first statement

Pelosi said this was the rich elites not the middle class. 

To Pelosi, a rich person is anyone who still has a job</description>

		<description>Pelosi is out of touch because she and her ilk  is getting trounced by those in the right with what used to be their own tactics.

The fact is Pelosi and the left have lost their way and are becoming irrelevant, because the people (salient and silent majority) have finally had enough. 

The reporter at the end of the segment is a prime example of a liberal who is loosing the battle and making stuff up as they go along without any sense or continuity.  

The left is lost in the dessert without a morale compass they better hope they do not come across a Taliban Warlord.</description>

the more the media jumps on public outrage

the more the government targets us as right wing fundamentals

the less a prayer Obama has a chance of having any congressional power in 2010

what&#039;s he&#039;s done so far, he&#039;s toast
hope he isn&#039;t allowed to implode the country in the mean time</description>

		<description>The fact that the great majority of these tea parties were organized to take place during the lunch hour or after 4 p.m. ought to be all the proof anyone needs that the people attending these parties are ordinary hardworking Americans, with real jobs who pay real taxes and are for real pissed off that they&#039;re being saddled with the bill for this boondoggle.  These aren&#039;t rich white folk who make their livings off the masses, and they aren&#039;t professional protestors and malcontents as the left trots out for all of their stupid demonstrations.  Madame Botox is woefully out of touch with the mood of this country.  If she were serving in any district outside of the liberal fantasyland of San Francisco, she would be tossed out on her ear in the next election.</description>

After all, aren&#039;t they supposed to be pushing The One&#039;s programs on a daily basis, telling people how great The One is and how fabulous his programs are?</description>

Welcome to libertarianism--of course, it&#039;s a bit of a Will Rogers&#039; &quot;I don&#039;t belong to an organized party, I&#039;m a Democrat&quot; situation, but I&#039;ll err on the side of freedom and responsibility any day. 

&lt;blockquote&gt;Plus you didn’t provide a link….

		<description>Hey Speaker Pelosi:

Think the Tea Party was &quot;funded at the top&quot; and &quot;not a grass-roots movement&quot;??

&lt;strong&gt;PROVE IT&lt;/strong&gt;!! Seriously, put your money where your mouth is and prove it. Because whoever the genius at the top, gets my support and MY VOTE!!!!!


&quot;Funded by the wealthiest people in America to keep the focus on tax cuts for the rich&quot;??

The Tea Party was more about out-of-control government spending, Raising taxes on future generations, Not reading the stimulus, Earmarks, Tax Cheats in DC, threats to our Vets...

&lt;strong&gt;If this is how the &#039;wealthy&#039; serve our country, I say Bravo!&lt;/strong&gt;  

Oh, and &#039;Astro-turfing&#039; was what Axlerod did during the campaign by paying trolls to stalk internet blogs. Ole Axlerod was involved in astro-turfing for an electric company: scaring people to vote for the electric company or face higher utility rates....</description>

		<description>Arrogant CNN reporter: &lt;em&gt;Do you realize that you&#039;re eligible for a $400 tax refund?&lt;/em&gt;

Woo Hoo.  Where do I go to kiss the Obama&#039;s feet?  

fwiw, even &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.motherjones.com/mojo/2008/03/astroturf-axelrod&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Mother Jones&lt;/a&gt; is on to David Axelrod and his astroturfing schemes.</description>

		<description>I find one woman who was dumb enough to stand in a busy street to protest was arrested...for being stupid.  However, where are the throngs of crazed right-wingers who were arrested on weapons charges (you know us bitter clingers...)?</description>

		<description>scalleywag:  I almost forgot why I quoted your remark in my haste to build on it.

At the Taxed Enough Already protest that I attended, I roamed among the crowd, taking pictures and overhearing conversations among the participants.  Nancy Pelosi&#039;s name came up repeatedly among differing age groups and political partisans as a source of deep unhappiness with Congress.  Some of the most barbed criticisms came from Democrats and Independents.  

Our government has become divorced from reality and from the lives of the people it is supposed to represent.  The politicians in denial of the dissatisfaction of the electorate and the roots of that dissatisfaction may be in for a rude awakening.

The grumblings that I overheard focused on term limits, recall, and the need for members of Congress to have full time jobs in place of their career political positions.  Federal government has intruded too much in our daily lives.  Politicians need to spend more time in their home districts and states, earning a living the way that the rest of us do and being attuned to the concerns of their constituents.

Obama, Pelosi, Hillary Clinon, and Rahm Emanuel are very controlling people.  I do not wish to be controlled by their vision of the good life in America. Its fascism is at odds with my sense of liberty.</description>

		<description>BTW:  since I live in Europe and a little behind on the news, how many violent protesters were apprehended at this crazed, right-wing rally?  

How much property was damaged/destroyed/defaced?

How many flags were burned?

...can someone enlighten me?</description>
