As insulted as many are about things like this, and Obama's stupid remarks, and Hoffa; I actually like it. It means that the movement is scaring the living **** out of some people. And in my opinion, that's a good thing. Especially when you consider WHO it is that are so scared.

yes but you donot understand what we are afraid of
it is not that nut-con's have powerful ideas that are sure to fix things history proves cuts in spending donot cure recessions
but that the results will be a complete horror and long lasting a 1930's rerun
so do you understand the risks
do you have any evidence the slash and burn cuts the tp'ers want have ever worked anywhere and time [note the bear tryed to BS me that calvin the cool had done that in the early 1920's ] but I reminded him it all came crashing down in oct 1929 and delaying is NOT fixing
or very very like religion is belief in tp dogma all you need and contrary evidence is hand waved away

That is how you KNOW you're getting to them. The more s*** they throw at us, the more scared they are that we actually are gaining power.

I didn't BS you, you fracking nut. Coolidge's cuts WORKED. The stock market crashed because it was a BUBBLE, and that was caused by speculation, buying on margin (mostly illegal now BECAUSE of the '29 crash) and the lack of SEC rules that came after the crash. FDR PROLONGED the Great Depression with his high taxation and government spending.
calvin the cool left office in march 1929 7 months later we had the start of the GREAT DEPRESSION
you can handwave all you want but if everything falls apart that quickly the old-con program quickly FAILED TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY
and today our current neo-cons want a basic rerun of his failed programs repeated retrying the same thing expecting a different result is the CLASSIC DEFINITION OF INSANITY
ESP WITH DEREG and MARKETS KNOW BEST that is a basic part of your DOGMA

probably alot like how Clinton caused the crash which happened 6 years after he left office.... of course, with the help of the Republicans....no one can screw up an economy like the Republicans.....

When we adhered to the Constitution, we were the most powerful country on planet, with the best industry, the strongest economy, and the respect of every other country, including even those who feared us. Now we've veered so far from the concepts that our founding fathers laid out for us, we have an all but completely collapsed economy, just about every country on the planet hates us, and even our "friends" merely tolerate us, and our industry is siphoning off to other countries.
You can nitpick the details all you want, and argue about abortion, health care, and same sex marriage, but trying to shove your finger in a hole in a dyke when the whole thing is crumbling around you is a waste of time. At some point you have to decide that what you're doing isn't working, and choose a new path. There may be another path, but the proven one is to follow the constitution. None of the existing parties want to do that, save the "true" tea party people; those being the ones who are loyal RP followers. Everyone is trying to hold on so tight to what they think they have, and no one recognizes that they are gripping the life out of our country.
And how did he cause a crash 7 months AFTER he left office?
economics is not a instant response type program there are known delays between changes and results sometimes 7 months is a quick result
your side blames carter's CRA for effects 20+ years after it was passed in to law but you question 7 months delay in the 20's get real you can't have it both ways

your solution is not to repair the dikes but to blow them up
remember our Constitution was a replacement for the failed articles of confederation that was very limited government AND IT FAILED tea-puppets want to return to the failed articles of confederation level of very very limited government and not real the Constitutional law that we have now

The opposite of this is why we are currently tanked.

the fact are as follows
GOP guys appointed by BuSh2 were in charge of the fed agency's and agendas and they used nut-con dogma of markets know best and limited regulation [ dereg] that got us madeoff and his ponzie clones bad loans bad loan swap BS that caused a house price bubble and crash that crashed the markets [who did not know chit let alone best] and led directly to tooo big too fail rescue plans
GOP DOGMA CAUSED THE RECESSION AND TRYING MORE, & HARDER THE SAME DOGMA WILL CREATE DEPRESSION
WE NEED NEW IDEAS NOT NUT-CON RERUNS

The success or failure of the articles isn't relevant. What is relevant is that the constitution that was drafted from them was a stellar success, until our government began to shift towards an authoritarian government, which is NOT what the constitution defines. And if we ever want to be the super power we once were, we will need to return to its roots or we're finished. You can try to create a circular argument if you want, but facts is facts, and what we're doing ain't working.And anyone who thinks that moving FURTHER in the direction that don't work is somehow a solution is just too stuck to their ideas to be reasonable.

I guess ACORN, Fanny Mae, and Freddie Mac had no part in the housing problem, right? Oh wait, that' can't be, those are liberal programs, can't assign any responsibility there. (Plus being mainly oriented towards minorities we much remain silent or be accused of racism....ssssshhhhhhhh)
Here's a new idea- let's get rid of the fed altogether...oh wait, is that too much of change? Guess we need more of the same, just in smaller doses?

jackson tryed that [ closed the fed bank ] the result was massive depression and job loss why do you not research the history of your plans most are summed up by we tryed that it FAILED

DOGMA does not equal truth
You're over-simplifying by trying to say it was the end of second bank of the US that caused the problems. But it's fine, we can keep on the path we're on and nothing will change. It seems like what everyone wants anyway.
economics is not a instant response type program there are known delays between changes and results sometimes 7 months is a quick result
OK, what did Coolidge DO at the end of his term that caused the stock market crash?
Also, what does lowering taxes and cutting government spending have to do with a stock market crash? Link those factors for us, if you think you can.

all the teapuppets plans are old ideas that were tryed and FAILED
we could try old ideas that worked or new ideas
but retrying ideasthat history shows have failed is way beyond DUMB dogma
lol - CONSERVATIVE. the name by itself should help explain this. new = no. they have no forsight - only hindsight. listening to these kinds, and man would never have left the trees....

I can’t believe what's happening in this country! The news yesterday so clearly highlights the disparity between reality and the narrative that the big government propaganda machine is pushing, how can you do anything but shake your head in disbelief? On the same day that President Obama gave his ridiculous “jobs” speech, we were greeted by this headline “FBI Issues Search Warrants at California Solar Firm Touted by Obama.” The story here is that Solyndra took more than $500 million dollars from Obama to “create jobs” by making solar panels but,despite the giant fortune funneled to them from the federal government, they suddenly went completely out of business.
Despite this evidence that his big spending policies have epically failed, despite the promises that there were “shovel ready jobs” that Obama later joked about by saying, “shovel-ready was not as shovel-ready as we expected,” despite the other false promises that the first trillion they stole would upgrade our infrastructure and keep unemployment under 8%, despite the overwhelming evidence that nearly a trillion dollars worth of American treasure was completely wasted in the first stimulus, this President had the audacity to demand that Congress immediately pass another half a trillion dollars worth of stimulus. Over and over again, Obama and his band of thieves have robbed the American people in broad daylight and this latest job proposal is just another blatant example. They don’t even have enough creativity to change their lies or their methods; it’s the same scam with the same empty promises and procedures. This proposal is SIMPLE THEFT and if we allow them to screw us again, it will signal that the ideal of America liberty has taken its last breath.
The Tea Party helped elect Republicans in 2010 in order to provide a check on Obama’s brand of tyranny, but this message from Speaker John Boehner does little to instill confidence that they got the message: “The proposals the President outlined tonight merit consideration. We hope he gives serious consideration to our ideas as well…”
This proposal does not deserve even the smallest amount of consideration. This Congress was elected in 2010 with the mandate to put a check on Obama’s tyranny and apparently they didn’t get the message. Using our petition system it will only take you a couple of moments to send a letter to your elected representatives letting them know that this proposal is nothing more than another thieving scam, and that you are paying attention. Please demand that not only do they not pass this bill, that they don’t even debate it.
JUST KILL THE BILL!
Using our state-of-the-art petition system makes it quick and easy to make your voice heard, please take a few minutes to participate. *There is no contribution required to use our system but your generous contribution does allow us to continue to offer this service to everyone free-of-charge!
Thank you,
Todd Cefaratti Freedom Organizer
P.S. We absolutely must have sheer numbers to kill the bill! Please share this email with a friend using this link: Forward this message to a friend
Petition Obama & Congress Directly Now!Please read the important information below before sending your petition. TheTeaParty.net has invested in a state-of-the-art petition system where your voice is finally heard immediately by your representatives in Washington, DC. Every week, we will host a new petition. You, along with hundreds of thousands of other patriots, will be cutting through the red tape and getting your message to the President and Congress to stop all this madness—cut spending and restore this great country to what our founders envisioned. This new system will automatically send them emails and faxes with your name attached to it at the touch of a button! On the next page, you will enter your name, email address, and zip code and our state-of-the-art system will locate your specific State representative, and, immediately, your petition voicing your opinion will be on its way to him or her. You will have the chance to write your own words in that petition so your representative will know exactly how you feel.
We know this process is already working because just after petitions were sent from our system by thousands of patriots, we heard from our Washington liaison that Congress was seeing record numbers of petitions! They are already running scared as we have seen television ads start to pop up from special interest groups to combat the support our patriots have created. You are making a huge difference!
This amazing petition system and all the free tools we provide at www.TheTeaParty.net are for Americans to use any time and they are always free. However, it is not free to us as we are investing over $100,000 every month to provide American patriots these free tools to save our beloved country. As a 501(c)(4) non-profit organization, we are 100% funded each month by small, individual donations by American patriots like yourself. Because we are not funded by billionaires or special interest groups as our opponents are, we will only go as far as the American people will take us. Because of your continued support, we pulled off what has never been done and were able to host the first ever presidential debate for "we the people" instead of the liberal media!
Just fill in your information in the below boxes and then click the button "Donate and proceed to the petition page". If you are unable to donate then instead click on the button "Go To Petition Page Without Donating." We know times are tough, so every donation of any size is appreciated more than you know. As a bonus, for anyone that is able to donate $100 or more, you will be placed on our patriot heroes list and also receive the tea party membership package sent to you which includes tea party membership card, tea party lapel pin and much more. Thank you for your support. Your country needs you like never before.

You do realize that for a hit piece it was a bit sad. Out if a crowd that big no matter what the cause, if that is all he could do, he is either a buffoon, or it shows the Tea Party is more informed than most of the protests. Most lose it as soon as the mic is in their face and the red light on the camera is on.

No, it STARTED with the CRA.
Obama involved in a lawsuit against banks, forcing them to make loans to low income borrowers
you know the house price bubble and crash had little to do with red lined ghetto property or loans for those property's and that is all CRA covered CRA is a small grain blow up by the GOP spin machine
and that brings us back to calvin the cool and not so much what he did but just as in the house bubble what was not done or was too little too late DEREGULATION and hands off markets know best ideologues GOP DOGMA did the damages bought us both calvin the cool's depression and the current BuSh2 mess
or in basic terms people cheat in markets GOP dogma said do NOT even try to catch them [ dereg] or worry about that [markets know best]
