You libs are really worried about protestors considering you all were protesting like crazy during the bush administration.

Relax, everything will be ok.

Must be bothering them immensely though since there are so many.

Well, Pelosi and Obama WANT them worried..after all those Tea Party folks are domestic terrorists.

Basically, every post now adays from the left revolve around either the tea party, palin, beck, or rush.

Divert attention possibly? Redirect on the opposition? Doing so with Bush seems to be popular as well.
There are 18 threads about Tea Parties on the first page of P&OC, 9 started by "liberals" and 9 by "conservatives".

The Obama administration and worshipers motto = "Engulf and Devour, Our Fingers Are In Everything".

That explains it.

I guess the wingnuts want a stacked deck. No serious opposition viewpoints whatsoever...sort of like Faux News.

As shown in the post above yours, 50% of the threads about Tea Parties were started by conservatives. What's their excuse?

If that 50% number is accurate it's to combat the left, simple really.

All I hear in whiny threads like this is "We can criticize the left but we'll whine if you criticize us."

The tea party is a continuous barrage of criticism of the left. Can dish it but not take it, eh? Who would have known that they would stoop to bully tactics like that?! What a shocker.

Angry, why shouldn't they be? Why aren't you angry that the government overspends, wastes tax dollars, and is monitizing our national debt?

Irrational? How so? These have been peaceful gatherings. No irrational or violent behavior has been reported by Tea Party members that could also be confirmed by law enforcement.

Your point is what exactly?
Funny how ALL of this gov't overspending and tax dollar waste ALL started with the election of President Obama

Not to mention the fact that many of the so-called "anti-tax" Tea Party ilk attacked President Obama's race and attempted to disparage him by calling him a "Muslim" (and insulting the many law-abiding/tax paying Muslim Americans) as well as, attacking the First Lady.

Why not just admit what the Tea Party is really about...I mean, come on....just be honest about it.

Where was all of the "outrage" against gov't spending pre-Obama? And where will it be post-Obama?

You people are so obvious
