I just think the whole theme is silly. What does this have to do with the tea party? Can these people not vote?

I wonder how many people attending the tea parties actually voted...and if they did vote, why can't they get it through their heads who won?

NEWSFLASH: for the tea party attendees, the results of the election are FINAL.

While I think the purpose behind the protest is dumb they have the right to do so. I'm sure people were saying similar crap about when I went to Iraq war protests and look how that turned out.

I don't think they are protesting the results of the hollywood election. I think they are protesting the biggest moron to even be elected president.

People have the right to protest.
People have the right to counter protest.
People have the right to attend whatever protest they want to.

During the Iraq War protest in NYC, there were people mixed in who were for the war. This happens with every protest.

Yep, HuffPo wants "citizen reporters" according to their website. Maybe we could "teabag" them (esp. the ladies)?
I'd like to know how "ACORN" is going to "infiltrate" the tea parties.

Maybe some good writing will come out of this...could be very funny.

Funny, just a couple of days ago people were claiming that ANY infiltrators showing up was a conspiracy theory.

Once again, I told you so.

If ACORN shows up at these events, you can be ready for dishonest reports. ACORN workers do nothing but spin....no honesty in that organization.

Lol, ACORN workers sneaking into the suburbs to infiltrate BBQs.... Do you think ACORN is recruiting new infiltrators, or just rehiring the tried-and-true vote-registration forgers from last year? What do you think the training is like? The role -playing? How much do you think they're paying them? (I realize they'll be paid out of The Secret Fund.) What does the job description form say? Think the Marching Orders are on ACORN letterhead?

Love it....you people will believe ANYTHING!

Yes indeed. I hope to take part in a local Tea Party. Perhaps the Acorn Cronies will be the first bag to be dunked into the water.
