Sad but true
Dissent is Patriotic, as long as it is used against Bush.
I loved Chucky trying to scold them. But they put it right back in his arrogant face.
Speaking of one of the Treason Trio, Michael Steele says GOP might aid a real Republican in a primary challenge.
That was great ! And I’m glad that the SD Chicken can still get work. Sen Schumer and I seem to have different interpetations of the word “rude”.
Oh man, that looks like so much fun… I wonder if they’d be upset if we did this on a State level? We’ve got just as bad of a problem up here in Washington State (per capita) as California does.
Now that’s how you do a mockumentary. Those guys beat Michael Moore any day of the week.
Very well done. Satire at its best.
That was awesome. The clueless look on some of the peoples faces was priceless. I would have paid money to be a part of the presenting of the check to Schumer, what an arrogant a$$.

Yep, only thing that was missing (at least I didn’t see it in the picture) was yet MORE bags of Pork Rinds for these “chattering class” to present to Schumer.
I was having trouble laughing because that was so freaking scary…
That is funny but it is so true it is sad. They take our money and we get the bill. Wow i guess that is what B. Hussien ment when he said change. Not only are they going to take and not give back, but they going to take and take and take….etc..
The applauding Amtrack worker comes immediately to mind. Clueless sleepy, sleepy time American.
Very well done.
And Chucky “chattering class” Schumer calling other people “rude”? Priceless.
That was priceless. Thanks Michelle for linking to it.
Yup. and these were the same people that voted for Obama. Thanks a lot.
What was funnier/scarrier was that Sen Snowe didn’t even realize that she was being made fun of. Talk about out of touch.
I hereby nominate the Taxpayers Clearinghouse Prize Patrol for an Oscar.
Some would argue that making these people think that they have won something big, only to realize that it was a joke is cruel.
I believe it serves as a microcosm of what Obama voters can expect their 4 year ride to be!
OT:

I get a little teary eyed when I see young conservatives in action. I didnt think there were any left.
I’m so proud!
misscherly, thanks for the link. This
is exactly the problem, homeownership is not a right!

Kind of like the fake “winning” Lottery tickets; you know, the ones that are redeemable at “yo momma’s house”?
We gotta have some fun; they found a way to bring a little levity to the times we’re in as well as make a point. Bravo!
Very true but then some of us think that being told we were going to get “hope and change” only to get a VERY large bill is cruel. They would argue that taking what we’ve worked hard to bring in being distributed to pay mortgages of bus drivers that over bought is cruel.
There has to be some sort of an award for these people.
All of this only proves one thing to me. The world really is flat and when we went to Brazil in early January, we fell of the edge and landed on some other planet.
Wahhhhh. I wanna go home! Beam me up Scotty.
That was great Michelle and thanks to those young people for standing up and taking it to the idiots!
This is the only way to win and that is to be brasher and louder and more in your face than the loser liberals!
Fact of the matter is these young people used humor and parody to get their point across, far more effective than, say, Code Pink and their shrill, shrieking protests, and who are, in fact, parodies of themselves.
I agree. This is exactly the sort of thing that helps the rank and file understand what is really going on.
hahaha–the chicken taking back his ‘nest egg’!
oops; guess it wouldn’t be ‘his’.
Schummer is on Fox News right now saying that New York will take the money that Bobby Jindal says they dont want.
“We have a check for Citibank for 300 billion dollars”
“Ok”
“And uhh, we have an invoice for you”
Narrator, “The Patrol will invoice you for over 20,000 dollars. And they’re here to collect!”
Keep finding more gems the second and third time I watch it…
I wish we had this sort of grassroots conservative protest when Bush/Paulson were showing the inept with cash we don’t have.
For the win.
Yes, the lovely but financially ignorant Senator Granholm from Michigan made similar remarks. And her YouTube channel censors comments so only the fawning praise gets posted.
I was shocked that Chuck Schumer, the permanent junior senator from NY, refused face time in front of a camera… ANY camera! This a$$clown will show up at KrispyKreme openings to flap his gums… however I notice he never shows up at any business closings brought on by his Stagnation=Progress tax and spend schemes.
oh my gawd thank you Michelle i needed a good laugh .
Me, too.
The parody was a hoot! Hope it helped those people understand what we are up against.
very, very well done. Good humor always has a little truth in it. This is hysterical and way too true!!!!
