   These people never seem to have jobs or anything, do they? All they seem to do is protest. What will they actually be protesting this time? That they don’t pay enough taxes???

   I run my own business and work hard at it every day, but WILL take the day to go to the pro-teaparty in my state. Looking forward to it.

   Do not underestimate the grand standing and hijacking of protests that can be done by a few paid ACORN hacks and a willing propagandista in the media!

   I have mixed feelings about the various ‘media’ people that are trying to ‘get on board’ with the tea parties as they also bring their own baggage with them.

   The tea day protests will need to make clear what they are about BEFORE they are disrupted by the ‘haters’ on the left. And make no mistake about it, the left will be trying to make these parties their own.

   Just went on that link, no mention of protest against spending and taxes, just a call to ‘break up the banks’. Wall Street, as usual, is their villain. They are worried that the Tea Parties are going to get attention, April 11th isn’t a date they picked out of thin air, they hope to steal the thunder of the Tea Parties. Pathetic.

   I should note: If even one of those protesters is truly sincere about opposing government bailouts of private industries and truly sincere about ending government support for crony pseudo-capitalists at Fannie/Freddie and truly sincere about letting failing banks fail, I say: Welcome to the club.

   It would be nice to see some people actually waking up but it would require a certain level of logic, reason and some ability to look at the big picture overall.

    Protesting IS their job–they get Federal, state and local grants to “organize”. There are plenty of welfare feeders to make up the rank and file.

    Yes. They’ll show up posing as radical extremist right wingers so the MSM can spotlight them as representing the whole crowd. Remember the misconstrued reporting at the Palin rally where supposedly someone in the crowd yelled “kill obama”?

    They’ll probably try to start riots and trash the places to make us all look like anarchists.

    To truly destroy your enemy, make them your friend.

    As much as it would be pleasing to see the collectivist protesters have their heads handed to them, how about a more subversive approach? Most of these anti-tax protestors will be brain-dead puppets or paid agitators. However, a good number will be there because their friend is there, or mother is there, etc. They will see how each side reacts to the other.

    From what I’ve seen, the Tea Party crowds have been very cordial, well-behaved, positive events. The collectivist protests are inevitably negative, hate-filled screech fests.

    Be polite and inviting to the collectivists. Deep down the collectivists desperately want to belong to “something”. They won’t switch sides right there, but the event will stick in their mind.

    You cannot pound sense into their heads. But you can offer them a new direction. It will be up to them to take the new road, but they will see the possibility, maybe for the first time.

    No. They’ll be protesting that YOU don’t pay enough taxes.

    The people who get prosecuted for not paying taxes are the right-wing nuts who hole up in fortified compounds clinging to their guns and Bibles. The left-wing nuts who fail to pay taxes have a “get out of jail free” card. If they get caught, they pay back taxes (but only for the past 3 years) and then go on their merry way as part of the Obama administration. They never have to pay a penalty or go to jail like you and I would have to do.

    If your pay/welfare came from tax funds, wouldn’t you want everyone else to pay more taxes, too?

    I quit flying back in the ’80′s, when they decided I should produce an ID to get on a plane. Now watching films of the TSA in action, I find it incredulous that so many purported freedom lovers have so willingly traded liberty for an illuision of safety. Cripes – they practically strip search everybody. I am saddened by the number of people who willingly allow this.

    I know, I know, I don’t have to fly, but it would be much preferable if the government let the airlines and the free market decide.

    That reminds me of the musician Moby, who prior to the 2004 election encouraged his fans to go on chat rooms and message boards and spread the lie/smear that GW Bush had supposedly paid for an ex-girlfriend’s abortion. And he admitted it was a lie but that it was okay, in order to beat Bush.

    Here’s more evidence about how widespread and deeply felt the tax revolt movement is fast becoming.

    It augurs well for a third-party movement:

    “And like Proposition 13, the 1978 ballot measure that transformed the state’s political landscape and ignited tax-reform movements nationwide, they see the next backlash coming not from either major political party, but from the people.”

    It also augurs well for breaking through the MSM blackout:

    “An angry mob of thousands converged on an Orange County parking lot in southern California on a recent Saturday morning for an anti-tax protest, stunning even the organizers with the size of the turnout. It was just one in a series of public demonstrations that have cropped up around the state.:

    There are few things that can change the MSM narrative faster than a grassroots movement of angry taxpayers. It’s not about financing but boots on the ground. We outnumber the opposition and will be heard.

    So, the TEA Parties are demonstrations against Obama’s Socialist/Marxist Power-grab (Stimulus Package) as well as the outrageous increases in taxes that are both inferred and promised by the Obama Administration.

    The Liberal Whack-a-Doos, going through protest withdrawls since Bush left office, has decided to form “Anti-TEA Party Protests” in response to the Conservatives in this nation finally becoming fed-up with the destruction of this nation and the Constitution since Obama took office, and the last 2+ years of Democrat Congressional control.

    Considering what the TEA Parties are for, can we assume then, that the “Anti-TEA Parties” are in SUPPORT of OUTRAGEOUSLY high taxes and the Marxist/Socialist take over of this country?

    Can we then assume that the shredded and see-thru veil that the Dems and Liberals have hidden behind as they all claimed not to be Socialists/Marxists will finally be removed once and for all and they will no longer be able to feebly deny what their true nature and true beliefs are?

    Is it still too early to remind them that Obama will not be in the White House forever, and that Conservatives have long memories, and that once they have finally let it all come out, that the genie will not be able to be put back into the bottle?

    The Liberals are drunk on their own hubris. Their lack of knowledge towards history seems to also go for their lack of understanding about the future and what their actions today will mean for the future.

    And they are all convinced that Obama will go 8 years. Obama is waiting for his lame-duck years to really let both barrels go. Can anyone just imagine the destruction he and the Liberals have planned for when he no longer need worry about being re-elected?

    This could go either way: less turnout for them because they’ve had mere days while we’ve had weeks/months, and yet it could draw more coverage because of an otherwise slow holiday weekend news cycle.

    The risk in them usurping the press’s attention for the real rallies on 4/15 is this typical MSM response: skip the latter protests Wed. because “they were already at the last one” and it fizzled, without ever checking to discern the differences between the two.

    I think the Sacramento one will actually do really well. The fact that Cavuto has decided to do his show live from there will give a definite boost to the cause, as well as give it even more legitimacy.

    I don’t think I would call what the Libs are doing “usurping the spotlight/attention”. It would not matter what they were doing, the mere fact that it is them is more than enough for the MSM to toss all their support behind it. The MSM will go out of their way to tell how what the Libs are doing is such a great and mighty thing, while at the same time, only days later, paying lip-service to the real story and minimalizing the importance and gravity of the event.

    The Libs have over 40 years of practice. They know what it takes to make their asinine statements. The Conservatives are relatively new at it, for they have always done their talking at the polls. Especially since the Conservatives generally have better things to do…like go to work, spend time with their children, be active and responsible members of society…

    I look forward to seeing all my fellow Californians at the State Capital next week. Hopefully we can actually meet and get to see each other in person. At the very least, I will be posting as many pictures from the event as I can.

    Obama is trying to be another Hoover again, throwing in a bit of FDR. Back in the late ’20s and early ’30s, they took a recession and managed to make it into another depression. It’s the old insane, “If we try it again, maybe we’ll get different results.” The liberals, especially youth, have no history or logic to fall back on, so they use emotion to decide their politics. The left knows that and uses it. I was the same way, back in college. Fortunately, my love of history taught me what was really going on.

    There is just no end to the parallels between 1932 and today, whether it be in the propaganda emanating from the White House, the policies both enacted and planned by the Obama Administration, the way the Obama Administration is dealing with the economy, etc., etc., etc.

    Just how much further into repeating the horrendous disasters of the 30′s and 40′s this “President” and his minions plan on taking us has yet to be seen, but at the rate they are going, the entire world is in big trouble.

    Liberals have absolutely no understanding or knowledge of history and thus they are allowing it to repeat itself in devastating ways…DAILY.

    There are more of us then them…that’s the truth of it, inside the Democrat Party “The Progressives” are the minority. Why is the Minority running the Republic? This is why Obama is the most polarizing President in History. Whoever voted for him last Fall because he WASN’T George W Bush (who wasn’t running anyway) only have themselves to blame for their current state of job loss ect…They rolled the dice and lost Obama is not a Centrist neither is Pelosi or Reid.

    The U.S. is a Republic, Our Government is Majority Rule and Minority Protection.

    They know they are the minority they resent the majority. This Country has been hijacked by me first people, not country first people.

    Meanwhile Al Sharpton and Acorn are up to old Politics (race baiting) re Sheriff Joe Arpaio, down in Arizona. The same Factions that are anti Republic are anti immigration enforcement. This isn’t new Politics this isn’t Change. What happened to the transitional President the new era of race relations in America?

    Rahm’s Evil Plan, Cont’d.
    As some of you may know, Big Guy has been having issues with a group of moderate Democrats in both the House and the Senate. It’s made for some uncomfortable meetings, especially when guys like Sen. Evan Bayh, who was going to work for Big Guy in his cabinet until he got cold feet, stand up to him on the budget, or TARP or stimulus, or health care … you get the idea.

    Actually, these “blue dogs” are a bigger headache for Toes, as he is usually the guy who has to sit through these meetings and pretend to listen to their “concerns.” But this morning, Toes seemed a bit more spritely than he usually is. When we asked about it during the senior staff meeting, it held up the newspaper and pointed to a story.

    Pretty Schizophrenic reaction from the left, this has to be confusing and uncomfortable. To think that they are in a position to counter argue a position that we mostly agree on is really typical leftist confusion regarding the issues. How they try to define themselves in this process should be pretty amusing. Getting the popcorn ready….
