Re: Sick and Tired

I certainly hope that it is an upheaval--the alternative is that we have utterly destroyed the economic future of our children.

Re: Sick and Tired

You lost all credibility when you stated that Fox News is 'fair & balanced.'

Re: Sick and Tired

PCO, no news networks are completely balanced. That being said, Fox is about as close to balanced as you're going to find among the majors.

Re: same folks

With all due respect, Sir, these folks are the same ones that were yelling at the Bush bailouts. This is not about political party. If you cannot take the partisan blinders off, you should avoid the issue from here on out.
It is about the Constitution, and if you knew it, you would defend it.

Re: same folks

Yep, we're spending money at home. Of course, the money is coming from my pocket and going into some deadbeats pocket. Purchased a house you couldn't afford? No big deal. We'll just cover the costs and let you move on your merry way. What? You have a job? Give me your money......the deadbeats need some help.

#$^%&^# that!!!

Re: same folks

Yes, where were the portests when the Bush administration spent billions to various contracts that supported a bogus war and at the same time made money for all those involved. Billions were spent to support the oil investments of the same people. Seems to me the old cronies that made money using the government's money for their investments are now making a big stink because the goverment's money is now being invested in the people of the USA. Big Business made their money and robbed the government blind before crashing. Remember when Big business or the old rich cronies start complaining about government investing in USA, it means that there is a shift away from helping them.

Re: same folks

hey no problem he's spent more in 90 days and doubling the debt than Bush did in 8 years

Re: same folks

Manager USDA; then, by definition you are a left wing nut. Oh, that paper cut does not count. No disability retirement for you.

Re: same folks

OK, USDA manager. Most Bush voters admit that he had serious policy problems. What happened to your white-knight that promised to fix it all? His only answer to anything is that Bush was awful. How is going on a wild spending spree supposed to help?

Do you approach your personal finances like this? If you see that money is tight this month, is your first reaction to tell your wife: get in the car honey, we're going shopping!!! New furniture, new car, woo hoo!!!

Re: Desperate attempt

Because it is their right to protest.

Re: Desperate attempt

Because the actions by Obama is nothing more than a wealth distribution plan.

Re: Desperate attempt

it is the old story about the frog in boiling water. turn up the heat slow so we don't feel the burn until it is too late. Obama turned up the heat too quickly.

Re: Desperate attempt

yep - in Chicago people were paid "transportation money" to attend the protests. Where were these wackos when the Bushies were selling us down the river. Oh yeah, you were a traitor if you complained about their transgressions.

Re: Desperate attempt

yep ACORN has all kinds of money so they are spending it as quickly as BO sends it. Unfortunately they didn't know it was a conservative meeting

Re: Desperate attempt

This wasn't a political party thing, although I think that party politics will try to hack in on this. I am not registered to any party but sympathize with the tea parties. I can make both party extremes mad with the same statement so I figure I probably an pretty centrist.

When is it enough!??!

There is plenty of blame to toss around both parties for many decades. Get over the party politics thing!

The people, whatever party, are pretty tired of the "usual" and sorry, but President Obama doesn't look like change for the better.

Once our republic started voting largess from the public treasury, the republic started to fail. Are we strong enough to go back to living free?

(PS. That does NOT mean NO regulation on the markets, juust smarter, fairer, regs to keep the crooks from taking over.

Re: Desperate attempt

Nameless, Faceless Nobody. . .

Don't look now but the crooks have already taken over. Need more be said?

Re: Unknown

If you classify these people as Right-wing Radicals per DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano’s definition yesterday, who she equates to Anti-American criminals; then if you look back at our history, some famous people who have fought for rights fit in the same classification. Thus Rosa Parks, Cesar Chavez, and Martin Luther King Jr were Right-wing, Anti-American Radicals. So, tell me why do we have a holiday to celebrate MLK? The same can be said for women who participated in the Women’s Suffrage movement. The fact is it is our right as Americans to peaceably protest. It is our duty to question our representatives and hold them accountable. Perhaps as was said after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, our current congressmen and Senators should fear that they have “awoken a sleeping lion”. This movement may indeed be the beginning of true change in fiscal responsibility and a return to our original created limited federal government. I don’t’ believe that it is party specific. As for news reporting, I flipped to MSNBC, I thought I was watching Saturday Night Live, how embarrassing, they should put their tails between their legs and find a hole to hide in.

Re: Unknown

I'm there with you...recruit me too!

Re: Unknown

All of a sudden the right wing is concerned about the national debt and deficit spending. I think one reason is the Republican party is grasping at straws and since they have convinced much of the public that taxes are bad, no matter how it limits the government's capability to provide services, these ditto heads go along with whatever they say. A second reason is that the Obama administration is not lying about the budget and what is being spent. The Bush administration kept the cost of its illegal war "off the books". That way it would seem that his deficit was less than was real. I don't like taxes but when I see so many families homeless because of layoffs and being paid wages that cannot support a person much less a family; I want the government to help them. I also want the government to help the homeless veterans. The government needs money to do this and I am willing to pay for it. Most of the tea party people selfishly think only of themselves and not our community.

Re: Unknown

Forester you want the gov't to help, how much did you donate to charity this year?? How much extra did you send to Uncle Sam to help out?? As long as its other people's money your right there saying give give just as long as its not yours. Typical left wing neo communist

Re: Unknown

What I have found disturbing to the extreme is how people who disagree are instantly labeled "un-American" or "radicals". This coming from a group who not only do not understand what this Country is all about, but are about as radical as I have ever seen. Shouting down people, calling them ugly names and now we see DHS labeling us "radicals" and people to watch. This is not the America I was raised in! Thank you to "Rick" for pointing out the difference between a rally put on and attended by "normal, every day citizens" and those put on and attended by groups whose agenda does not include preserving this great Country's heritage. It seems the right to "agree to disagree" is being thrown out the window and stomped on by the masses who are more interested in handouts than being responsible for themselves. The climate in this Country today is ugly where intolerence is encouraged by those in power. The results "Dumbing Down" of America are everywhere as seen in our youth. Not good.

Re: Where have they been for the last 8 years???

Dude, you need to do some research. Obama has driven the deficit up more than any other President already. And how long has he been in office? Obama is a Loser and he is going to drag our kids down the drain.

Re: Where have they been for the last 8 years???

Remember, socialism is a great thing until you run out of everybody elses money!

Re: Where have they been for the last 8 years???

Attorney Commerce:
Where have you been?? The republicans are now "born again fiscal conservatives". When I heard WMD, mission accomplished, spread democracy, & bring them to justice, I was thinking...what is all of this costing me & my future generations? Wake up dude!!

Fed Peasant

Re: Where have they been for the last 8 years???

It is disconcerting to read the "logic" of some posters. Many of us voted for Pres. Bush but were very unhappy with the bailouts, approval of drug prescription program, etc. But, from reading comments here, one would conclude that those who voted for Pres. Bush and may have been unhappy with some of the decisions made wanted even more spending. that is not the case--we were concerned under his term and now downright scared to death about the future of this country under the person who is turning this country into another version of a European socialist democracy.

The article is right that most Americans do not get involved in politics and ignore it. The left wing agenda of this administration is waking some up. What we really need is term limits. Having career legislators who end up with millions and incredible perks is not consistent with a republic. It has perverted our system of government. I hope this tea party movement takes hold and gets attention to initiate real change--and I am not referring to the taxing/spending/socialism policies that Obama means when he refers to "hope" and "change."

Re: Where have they been for the last 8 years???

as usual fed pheasant your unable to think for your self. Gov't is taking 27% of the GDP, 45% of the public pays no taxes and the debt will be paid by my grandchildren

Re: Where have they been for the last 8 years???

Fed "pheasant"? Served under glass?

I want a better quality of trolls! I'd at least like a few who can spell.
