Tea Party Watch: Protesting the cap-and-tax cramdown
Photoshop: Leo Alberti
It’s not just what’s in the bill. It’s the way they rammed it through the House.
Just like the porkulus: Under-handed, transparency-defying, and stuffed with earmark payoffs and bribes concocted in middle-of-the night, backroom deals.
Taxpayers are mad again. And they’re not going to sit still.
Impromptu flash protests are taking place today at state capitols and federal buildings across the country.
In Chicago:
If you are anywhere near Chicago’s Federal Plaza this afternoon, where the Tax Day Tea Party took place, then be there at 1:00pm for a cap-and-trade protest. Federal Plaza is at 230 S. Dearborn.
In Orlando. And in Canton, Ohio.
In Upland, Calif.: noon at the corner of Foothill/Euclid.
In Atlanta via Barracuda Babes:

Cap Pelosi, Trade all Republicans who support this Wax-me Malarkey bill.
There will be a big Tea Party in Brunswick/Glynn County, Georgia, on July 4th at Gascoigne Park beginning at 11 AM. Be there. Flags, signs, speakers, noise, games and stuff for kids, as well as general hell-raising against our incompetent and dishonest national government. FREE admission to enjoy and share FREE SPEECH. Food and drink will be available.
Melt the phones at the offices of the 8 Republicans who voted for this.
Apparently, they have until July 2nd to change their votes. This thing could STILL be killed in the House.
Every Republican that voted for this travesty should be forced to wear a Henry Waxman pig nose for a year. Until they’re thrown out of office.
Pray for our country, pray to God the Father Almighty that He protect us from our lustful, dishonest government.
Anyone know about a TEA Party today in Houston?
know what you really meant but there is another connotation to the word “cap”….
I agree. Read their piece.
TEA Parties? OK, cool. All good.
Not nearly enough. Not even close.
Turn the rascals out? Sorry, there are LOTS of rascals that you won’t be turning out. Plus, you plug new idealists into office, and the bulk of them will be rascals in a few years.
Nope, we are going to have to get out of our box…out of our comfort zone…and into really effective action.
If we don’t we are just gassing here.
Yes, please do Good zorro; as GOD grew angry at Israel and Judah for their falling away I fear HE is removing his protection from this once great Christian Country. Far more than the Canaanites we have murdered our children and worshiped other gods. Sodomy runs rife and men divorce the wives of their youth for others. All too many fathers no longer teach their children well-if the father is there at all.
GOD will only be mocked for so long until HIS wrath is unleashed. In the great scheme of things I imagine the United States is no longer important so as with Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego we may have to face the Great King of Babylon and say No, I will not worship a false god. And as with Paul we may Testify to Festus even as he sends us to Rome to face the emperor. As Americans we may have one more free election to stop this slide into fascism-but first we make sure our souls and that of our families are on the narrow path.
Our fellow Christians in Viet Nam are holding fast in the onslaught of Satans servants. Be this servants of Hell muslim, communist, fascist or others the Church has been attacked by them since creation.
Not today. The Houston Tea Party Society is worried about trying to throw something together at the last minute only to have no one show up and have news coverage try to make it sound like no one is there because no one cares.
Instead they’re encouraging people to buy black ribbons and tie them to light poles, street signs, utility poles, and car antennas, particularly around high traffic public buildings in a hope to spark conversations about what the ribbons symbolize and what’s going on.
They do plan to put together something to protest Cap and Trade, it just won’t be this weekend. If you want to do something in Houston this weekend they suggest either helping the Conservador Alliance with outreach or taking part in the Iran protests.
“To clasp the hands in prayer is the beginning of an uprising against the disorder of the world.” -Karl Barth
So what is next? This vote confirmed that congress has no use for our opinions and haven’t a desire to even pretend to represent us. The next election is to far away to prevent the passage of more Obamacrap. The polls are geared to show phony support for these programs. MSM continues the farce with lies and spin. How do we impact those who benefit from this legislation? What can we do beyond attending Tea parties? How do we say no to this intrusion it our buying power? Will more foreclosures because of this tax get any attention? Do we picket the congressional offices during the 4th? What is it going to take to truly scare these people, because they don’t believe that they will be booted from office? They hide using the safety of their parties while they make deals on the floor over who will vote for or against whatever. I am sick of the lies, manipulations and all out treasonous behavior of people who have been paid by us to screw us! What right do they have to tax us into the poor house so they can line their own pockets. Maybe it’s time for every business to snub these traitors. Suppose they can’t get their grass cut because their landscapers quit. What would happen if they could not hire people to get anything done because no one will work for them? How many people does it take to wait on Princess Nancy? Suppose she had to fend for herself? Suppose they all had to fend for themselves?
How about Crap and tax…because thats next if it’s not already in the bill somewhere!
With a quote that says, “Huh? Don’t ask me…I don’t know what’s in the bill!”
“When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness….”
That second paragraph should be sent to each of our elected Representatives.
The “Right of the People” is rapidly being taken away from us (or, “We, the People”, as another document makes reference to).
Ref: Our National Archives
Signs needed addressing the Constitutionality of their actions, like:
The Cap and Tax monstrosity is a usurpation of Liberty!
Malfeasance in office is NOT an attribute!
Tea Party or Tar and Feather Party…your choice!
We must express ourselves in no uncertain terms that we are mad as hell, and are not going to take it anymore!
Give us liberty, or we’ll liberate you!
I’ll be at the Tea Party in Newport News, VA on the 4th. My only regret is that I can’t attend it sooner.
Until then, here’s my somewhat experimental suggestion: mockery. Politicians in general seem to be able to absorb anger directed at them without any concern, and don’t much care about what we think. But mocking them with a parody of their own sense of superiority and ego might just get you somewhere.
Our self-styled overlords won’t be able to endure mockery from us “peasants” forever. That, and the humor may just stick to them. How will they stay in office indefinitely if we can reduce them to laughingstocks?
It might work and it might not. But it’s something to attempt before things have to get really nasty.
What say you, people? Lay down, or fight?
Fighting effectively does not require blood-shed or property destruction.
It does require commitment and sacrifice.
Hey, here’s a thought: instead of these stupid protests, which don’t accomplish much of anything, how about focusing on Congressional elections next time around, as opposed to fighting over who’s the least of the two evils in the drama-filled circus we call “Presidential elections”? And you know what? We won’t have to worry about said circus in 2010, so here’s our chance to not get distracted. Oh, and another thought: how about voting based upon principle vice party? (I know, this is a radical thought…) I’ve got news for you: Republicans don’t care about “conservatives”. Why? Because Republicans know you’ll always vote for them, mainly because they know you’ll never vote Democrat nor “waste your vote” on a third-party. So instead of being the country’s sheep, why not vote on the principles you say you espouse?
You wish to combat the Marxists? Then learn how they fight:
“By psychopolitics our chief goals are effectively carried forward. To produce a maximum of chaos in the culture of the enemy is our first most important step. Our fruits are grown in chaos, distrust, economic depression and scientific turmoil. … With it you can erase our enemies as insects… Use the courts, use the judges, use the Constitution of the country, use its medical societies and its laws to further our ends. … And bring to Earth, through Communism, the greatest peace Man has ever known.” ~Lavrenti Beria
I did that in the last election, Send_Me. I’m right there with you. I tell you, being an independent conservative is a liberating experience.
They won’t “scare” because they are fanatics with a screwed up ideology. They don’t care. They want to ram through everything they can, while they still can, and dam the consequences. The only think I can think of is to let it happen, let it play out, and the sheeple will have to wake up. And then pray it isn’t too late to fix. I’m not sure there is anything else. Oh, and stock up on food, water and ammunition. My sister told me I was turning into a radical and was “scaring” her with that kind of talk. I told her not to come knocking on my door when she ran out of money and food. I mean it…I will not let her in.
We need to all copy and paste the above portion of the Declaration and e-mail to everyone in Congress over the next week, right before Independance Day!! Send it to everyone! I will. Just remind them to read it and remember why they are in Congress in the first place. And let them know they can be replaced by the people they work for. Don’t Tread on Me!
#21: It’s not too late to fix and it never is. My case in point: China.
They’ve been through emperors, mandarins, and communists. But now their economy is growing. Why? Because after their long, long history, they began using capitalism because they needed to create jobs. And a country that has been through emperors, mandarins, and communists is not only starting to grow, but could well become a superpower in the future because of it.
They fixed the problem by doing what works and not doing what didn’t. It still worked even after centuries of their history doing it the wrong way. I’ll grant that there may be some serious pain along the way, but it can work for us that way too.
The implication of this Cap and Tax bill cut deep into our way of life.
You will not be able to sell your home unless it meets a new Federal construction code. Building codes are no longer a local issue, it is a federal one. Any home sale will have to be inspected against that code and if it fails the seller will have to shell out the money to bring it into complience.
There is so much of this that goes against Federalism and what we as American’s take for granted that it turns the stumach.
There is no fear in Washington. Our elected officials can do what ever they please and all that pleases them is a new found power to shape our lives to their ideological sense of fairness and justice.
Unemployment is going through the roof, interest rates are going to skyrocket and these oafs are playing god with an economy that they will soon collapse.
And I sit here having contacted my representatives over and over again with no effect what soever. [Insert screem here!]
What are we to do?
fax the following to anyone who voted for this…two simple words….
YOU’RE FIRED!!!
Kansas Teaparty TODAY:
Demonstrate your disgust with the results of the Cap and Trade vote in the House of Representatives. Come send Congress a message! Join us tomorrow!
Johnson County Courthouse

Olathe, KS
4-5:30 pm
I agree with all those who say we must do more than tea parties. It’s like Congress has decided to ignore us. They are not concerned with our little tea parties because they are just nice little demonstrations that keep us occupied while Congress goes about its business.
Look how many people commented on blogs yesterday that they were told their “representative” hadn’t decided. One comment I read was from someone who called Dennis Moore (d – KS)- his office didn’t know his position – but there was Dennis Moore on my TV pushing Crap and Trade big time. The point being is that representatives now lie to their constituents. Any while both my “representatives” voted “no” for the bill – I still don’t believe it had a thing to do with my wants or my calls.
YOU HAVE LOST YOUR MIND!
YOU ARE FIRED!!!
Said much better than my rant. But the bottom line is, apparently we the people can’t think of what to do.
Oh we can warn about “come election time” but the choices we are given are party hacks and each side votes their party hack. Yet in the end, they all do exactly what they please and what garners them the most political pull in DC
I like spontaheous ideas. Show up in front of the local city hall/court house, whichever, with the most obnoxious sign about “CRAP and TAX”, see what happens. It may take some time but I would be willing to bet others will show up soon. The only other way is to start going Galt as much as possible. I have stopped smoking as of April when they jacked smokes tax a buck a pack for SCHIP. Garden is doing nicely at son’s house as well as mine. Ammo has been building as available. No big ticket purchases unless absolutely necessary, etc.

Dang! sorry ’bout the double….
Choices, choices, choices–Come on now right_on why can’t we have both?
And just why was Neck Tie Party not included? A mere oversight I trust
spontaneous might sound good, but one or two at a time is easily ignored and written off as a nut case.
Going Galt is also a good idea and I think many of us are trying, but we’ve already seen that when they run out of money, they simply print more.
I really think we need a BIG “wake up moment” but I haven’t come with anything that is legal yet.
Forgot already that Republicans perfected these tactics when they controlled the House?
Alas, this seems to be true, just like the good old days of Republican control. At least it’s in the service of good. Remember: Republicans and conservatives have opposed every piece of environmental protection: getting lead out of gasoline, cutting smog, cleaning up rivers, etc. Guess what: Americans have some to love all those protections.
You’re projecting. In fact Cap and Trade has majority support in polls.
Unfortunately, working people don’t have the time to play demonstrator on a regular basis. But when the time comes (i.e. there are very few working people left) I understand a militia is legal under the constitution?
CRAP and TAX has a majority support in poles conducted of mostly ogoofy’s supporters. Sane people know better
We haven’t forgotten, a$$hole. What’s your point??
Cap and Trade was poling only 33%.
P.S. lgm…We have been trying to tell you, but you aren’t listening…
MOST OF US ARE NOT REPUBICANS!
When will you listen? Oh, never mind.

Obama, Axelrod, and Rahm “Tiny Dancer” Emmanuel are certainly taking their revenge out on states that did not support them in the `08 election.
KY has a population of a little more than three million and only a handful of industries – tobacco, coal and natural gas production among them – with which to provide them anything near a descent standard of living.
Should cap and trade become law, unemployment will skyrocket in KY devastating our economy and reducing a majority of the populace to dependence on state and federal assistance.
Kansas Protest at Johnson County Courthouse, 100 N. Kansas Ave, Olathe, KS
4-5:30 pm.
The winds of change are in the air…and they are not coming from Odumbo…they are coming from US! I see the future and it is not pretty. Back on my knees now to ask the help of the Almighty.
Zogby poll: only 30% of Americans support cap and trade « Watts Up …
Rassmussan poll: Congress Pushes Cap and Trade, But Just 24% Know What It Is-Earlier surveys have shown a steady decline in the number who believe that human activity is the primary cause of global warming.
Three-quarters of Americans believe the U.S. government should regulate the release of greenhouse gases from cars and factories to reduce global warming, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll.
I guess it what polling group you use lgm; Are you a fan of Chariots of the Gods by Erich von Däniken? He is big on junk science too. Waiting for the Mother Ship are we?
Phone lines have melted down. E-mail is full. We have sent the message as strongly as for the shamnesty bill. They are no longer listening. They don’t care. Will there even be an election in 2012?
Best sign I’ve seen, “READ THE BILL BEFORE IT IS PASSED”.
Or even a real election in 2010–but yes or no this is your country and you are responsible to leave it well to you heirs–keep your powder dry and work like hell to defeat the weaklings, cowards and traitors in the primaries. Our Continental Army lost battle after battle to King George’s Army-so they dug in and fought harder. Valley Forge ring a bell? Hard as it is we must not let despair cloud our judgment and resolve. Yes the Red States are going to pay a price for ignoring the Tiny Dancer and Blue Lips–LBJ punished the states who voted for Barry Goldwater and that piece of white trash didn’t even try to run in 1968-
And keep your powder dry-or did I say that?
I do seem to have an affinity for dry powder.
LGM, I read you 1:00 p.m. post.
I really enjoy the gist of your premise. Because someone may have done bad things in the past it is okay for you to do them when you the opportunity. What happened to having integrity and doing the right thing? What happened to debate, discussion, and the pursuit of the truth?
What the h@@@ does it matter what Republicans may have done? If they did it no one agrees with it either. It is okay to vote on a measure that no one has read, no real debate was allowed, and after VOLUMES of any dissenting information including reports within the EPA was supressed.
Two months ago I asked you eight relevant questions regarding global warming that you refused, as you always do, to answer. Intellectual cowardice. You will not answer them, because the scientific data totally refutes the entire premise of Global Warming. That theory was so shot full of holes liberals had to rename it Climate Change. You know lik ACORN to COI.
There is no rush on any of this. So why the rush? Hmmmmmmmmm. We all know why.
Just put a Black Ribbon on my flag pole also wrote Glenn Beck to see if he will request everyone concerned/pissed off to do the same.
I still think the most effective has been/is talking to friends and neighbors with facts. Didn’t work to well last time because a lot were so disgusted they stayed home. We now have more to inform them with, to wit, voting or not has its consequences. Don’t wanna hear it if you didn’t vote. LEARN!!! Have been beating the drum so hard its almost worn out. Won a lot tho…
Rip Ford ~
Thx for the info. Good point about media making a small showing into a big story.
Black ribbons, excellent idea.
BTW- Powder is dry & hot.
something mindlessly tedious. STFU!!!
BTW, it would be very helpful is everyone would register with Tea Party Patriots and complete the questionnaire. I plan on getting involved as a volunteer any way I can.
On July 4, I plan on getting up early for my annual JP Blecksmith Foundation 5k run in San Marino (just a few blocks down the street from me) and then head out to the Tea Party rally at Memorial Park in Pasadena. Should be a good day.
And perhaps I am being too harsh on My Left Gonad with his dyslexia and all- it IS hotter June 27th this year than it was February 27th this year-106 today so I finally got to put away my cold weather Bermuda shorts.
The Gadsden Flags are primed and pretty for the Fourth – one for the house, one for the Tea Party. God Bless America except for the Blue States.
I plan on exhaling tons and tons of carbon dioxide at the 5k run. You can’t stop me so don’t even try. I’m a radical, a gross polluter.
skysoljr82:
What you said!!!! D-i-t-t-o. I can’t suffer the moron anymore. When the pelosi hits the fan, he will disappear, change his name/handle, or his tune. Cowards always do.
I can picture him, scurrying away, screaming like a little girl…“Mommy?”
Interesting summary on the myths behind climate change. Increasingly, scientific data refutes the man-made aspects of climate change.
Climate Change Is A Farce
I suppose burning a tire in the town square is out.
lgm DOESN’T COMPREHEND what is happening, and my guess is he never will. He still thinks it’s about party affiliation. It’s not!
This is about reclaiming our constitutional rights as America citizens. It’s not about party complicity.
It’s about malfeasance in office. It’s about the theft of our liberty, our pursuit of happiness, and the violations of the rule of law.
It’s about cronyism run amok.
It’s about our elected officials wresting power away from “we” the people, for the good of themselves.
It’s about America’s survival as a free nation, led by patriots who put “the people” first.
lgm will never understand any of this…he can’t. He is too invested in America’s failure.

Best wishes for a good time. Sports is the only thing more important than politics.
Congratulations lgm. Just when I think you can’t say anything stupider, you do. How old are you…12?
What polls you dolt?
you bet careful lgm, your so full of crap you maybe a prime target to be taxed.
And by the way where did you get this info, pull it out your butt like every thing else you spout on this site?

The Liberal DemocRAT test, if it squeeks and chitters it must be a DemocRAT
Here’s a question that’s been bothering me since TSCOTUS determined co2 is a pollutant..now I agree there are at least 4 highly educated individuals on the court, so which one of those four was it that has an extensive background in meteorology/physics so as to make the determination co2 is a pollutant? Once again scientific findings are based on the consensus of 9 individuals educated in completely different area of academics.
Going on that premise it appears Galileo was wrong, the population numbers weren’t with him.
Hate to break this to you lgm, but I did when the Republicans were in power and irresponsible. I am an American, not a Republican. And I possess something ou demonstrably lack; ethics.
Your whole post can be summarized as, “I am for this bill, because Repubicans were not nice.”
Well lgm, people have been using that rationalization to kill people of your faith since Christ was crucified. All tyranny depends on that mindset.
So please do not condemn my distant relatives in the SS who gassed your distant relatives in WWII. Jews apparently did bad things to their ancestors so it’s justifiable, right?
The “useful idiots” elected these fools, now it’s time for Americans to throw them out, not only from office but out of the country too.North Korea would be a good place for them.
anyone know what’s with this they have till July 2nd to change their votes, something I’m not aware. I’d appreciate the help, thank you in advance.
Congress and the president feel that they now have total power to do anything they want. Many republicans want to survive so they get on the bandwagon too. They won’t stop until all liberty is gone and taxes have us all bent over. They want a complete socialist nation where they (the elite) rule, and are exempt from any inconveniences. Shades of the USSR. Prepare for the breadlines. Even elections will be like Iran…bought and paid for. People need to put their music and cellphones away and get involved. Otherwise, we’ll lose it all.
I remember a lot of naysayers commenting about the “porkulus protest” in Seattle organized by Liberty Belle on February 16th as being a waste of time and how it wouldn’t even be noticed.
They were wrong than, and they are wrong now!
The Independence day tallies for tea party events are expected to exceed the April 15th totals.
The tea parties number in the 100’s of thousands now, are organized and are turning the tide!
There are hundreds of events planned from now through the 4th of July and well beyond!
The more they ignore what the people want the larger our numbers have become!
I encourage people to join their local groups and also pick a regional and national group to join!
Duck Test: If you walk and quack like an idiot you are lgm or other such trolls.
Neanderthals Rock! Now it is back to the cave-have a mastodon to gut, skin and cure.
Since this was never about saving the planet, but about power, control and getting more taxes, I intend to start stuffing the mattress with all the money I won’t be spending on other things. It might be fun to cut my electric bill in half. I already canceled the plans for a new deck. What else can I ditch? Ultimately, those who make the money control the spending.
CHANGE THE VOTE on CrAP AND TAX.
We have time, a couple of days, to make the traitor8 change their vote…..look here.

By that standard you are a hard core marxist and so is YOUR president.
lgm; just remember the preaching you are doing these days, because when (not if) republicans take over all branches of government and do away with all this crap, we don’t want to hear any gnashing of teeth from you. make your words soft and sweet, you don’t know which ones you will have to eat.
It would be worth taking part in another Tea Party just to watch Keith OlberEichmann’s head explode (again).
“By that standard you are a hard core marxist”
And lgm is quite the little bigot too hey?
Although I fully support and plan to participate in the Tea Party on the 4th of July weekend I seriously doubt it will have any impact. The Obamamedia will ignore use just as our political overlords continue to do. We continue to stockpile food, water, survival gear, and ammunition for the coming hard times while clinging to our bibles and guns. Stay safe folks!
Maybe we’re focusing in the wrong direction. House, Senate, and President are focused on power, that’s their payoff. I’m afraid that they are just looking for an excuse to implement marshall law (such as swine flu epidemic, an attack, who knows) and then the next election will be worth squat. There won’t BE a next election because of the “emergency.” I can’t think of any other reason why they so blatantly ignore the voters.
The media, however, they are the “interpreters” for the government. Look at how they did Bush compared to Obama. That is where the voters who are responsible for voting these people in get their marching orders, from the media. The ONLY reason OIbama and Congress are able to get away with an iota of what they get away with is because of the interpreters–the media.
Where congress and Obama’s currency is power, the media’s is MONEY. Find a way to reward them for honest reporting and punish them for dishonest reporting with money and they’ll give up their allegiance to the power people in a heart beat. And all the people who depend on them for how to think will come around.
Just a thought.
Just got back from the Tea Party in Olympia, WA! AWESOME!!! We had actually already planned our Tea Party for today, so it worked out quite nicely! We had “Thomas Paine,” (Bill Basso) from the You Tube hits as our keynote speaker. He was brilliant!
The target is NOT the Obaminites-it is the conservative base-let them know all is NOT lost. No we will not receive much media attention–so we spread the word person to person and on the web.
As far as stockpiling–most excellent idea. Know your hand loading? I know how, and do, reload some without a press–if any on this blog have a link post it. I would like to see more people know how. When the hoplophobes come for the guns they just might take the presses. Handtapping is a great backup.
That’s an excellent idea. I’ve been wanting to learn how to do my own reloads since I’m having such a devil of a time finding ammo these days.
*Nazi Pelosi has called those against the Wacky-Marxist Bill the “entrenched agents of the status quo”; I’ve got news for you lady; The status quo is going to get blown out of office come November of 2010 when people commence to voting; As time passes, and this painful, extended recession created by P-BO and your Clown Cluster through all that you’re doing and continue to do makes life worse for us all, there will be hell to pay; Many Democrats and a few RINO’s will be out of work come 2010, and more in 2012, starting with the most unqualified 2nd term candidate ever, P-BO!
Screw Washington!
Let’s take our battle to the states.

We can work on Washington, but they’re not listening until 2010
Many states have 10th Amendment bills in their houses.
I firmly believe this is our best move now.

Tax payers aren’t angry. If taxpayers were truly angry they would do something to enforce the Constitution and to stop this outrageous government of ours from oppressing the people.
No, the reason the government is so out of control because they know that the “good” people of the country are content to sit idly by as our liberty is changed to bondage.
