It just goes to show that neither you, nor the White House understand the "tea party".. They are protesting FUTURE taxes going up to pay for the current debt being created by wreckless spending and poor budgeting. Tax cuts are actually part of the problem, not the solution and the reason for the protesting.
Thanks, but this wingnut obviously gets it, whats your excuse?
Since the current debt was caused by 8 years of Bush mismanagement, theft and stupidity, then I guess these people are really just protesting the GOP, and the rape of the GOP by the far right.
Anti-Obama Taxpayer Tea Parties steeped in insanity
What, exactly, are the protesters protesting? The marginal tax rate rising 3% for millionaires?

The Web is buzzing with information about how to throw an anti-Obama Taxpayer Tea Party, something organizers hope will be held today from Santa Monica to South Carolina. But no need to burn up your bandwidth reading complicated instructions. Here's a simpler recipe:
Go to a hobby store. Buy a scale model of a U.N. One-World-Government Black Helicopter and a tube of glue. Toss the model kit. Sniff the entire tube of glue. You're all set for the party.

I like the glue sniffing suggestion the best. Seems to have worked.
I'm not quite sure the protesters know what they are protesting. Typical Profile of the typical FAUX NEWS viewership. FAUX NEWS directs them to protest and they protest. Little do they know they are protesting against their own best interest... Is this a prelude to the 2012 election cycle? OMG I cannnot wait, more fodder for SNL...
Go tell it to the moron G. W. Bush who blew a balanced budget clear out of the water in 2001 with tax cuts for the wealthy, then huge increases in farm subsidies, then huge ethanol subsidies, all done with red ink and borrowed money. Then he went to war on borrowed money. Then he let the entire investing banking and mortgage business go down the drain. Maybe the morons on the GOP right can FIX that damage before they run their mouth about the new guy trying to clean up YOUR mess.
Hey Mike, listen to Fox the rest of the day and try to realize that Bush is taking as much heat as Obama is.
As Glenn Beck is now saying, neither party is more to blame than the other since they are both equally involved. this thing today isn't a gripe at Obama, since they keep talking clear back to Carter and beyond. It is about the terrible debt and Bush did add more than his share.
I wish some of you people could have lowered yourselves enough to watch some Fox. Glenn Beck is now speaking to Texans in San Antonio and talking too much truth about this whole movement.
Little do they know they are protesting against their own best interest...
Tell me, what is my best interest? What are my priorities? What do I want from my government?
You're in the topmost echelon of C-D posters when it comes to arrogance, duke. The sad part is, I'll bet you're barely even old enough to vote. Try getting some life experience under your belt before you pretend to know everything.
Since the current debt was caused by 8 years of Bush mismanagement, theft and stupidity, then I guess these people are really just protesting the GOP, and the rape of the GOP by the far right.
You have been asleep the past 90+ days? You don't know that we have increased that debt at least $2 trillion in that period of time? Is it what you smoke all day or have you really been asleep.
Wow---13 dollar per pay period tax break, to go to 8 dollars at the end of this year. Yeah... that's sure change I can believe in.
Is this an increase or decrease in your taxes?
