Anyone who is opposed to the federal government spending more than a trillion dollars worth of hard-earned American income on so-called "bailouts" for losers and economic "stimulus" may be interested in the protests happening around the country this Friday, February 27.

I've never done a protest before in my life (seems like a liberal thing). But I suppose there's a first time for everything...Thanks for the link.

Rather than a protest against bailouts, wouldn't you think the American people could do something with a more lasting effect? If, for instance, we were to have a long-lasting, nationwide boycott against the businesses sitting around expecting handouts from the government (= taking our tax dollars as rewards for their incompetence and/or malfeasance), we could put them out of business once and for all. They certainly deserve nothing less!

Where were the "tea parties" when the government was bailing out savings & loans, banks, etc. in the past?

Yeah, I thought so. Just more anti-Obama crap.

I can't believe anybody even listens to this guy. What an idiot.

I like the ad - the "limited government community"! That is, the "let me make all the $$$ I want with no taxes" crowd and the "let Wall Street commit whatever frauds it wants" crowd! Hahaha, God bless 'em! **** off! This is a demonstration of lame-a$$ machismo. Santelli needs to get out of the "macho" Chicago Mercantile Exchange more often!
