I think you might be confusing ‘tyranny’ with ‘losing’.

As the faux teaparty happens tomorrow, I will be watching this on repeat.





  • Haha, I love it!
  • Even better... David Schuster: "If you are planning simultaneous teabagging all around the country... you're going to need a Dick Armey." http://tiny.cc/YxQvr ;)
  • Take a few minutes to actually find out what the tea parties are about. It's not an anti-Obama or anti-Democrat, pro-Republican movement. It's about irresponsible government spending and associated taxation, and getting everyday people involved and caring about their country.

    There's plenty to be upset about that started with previous administrations. That doesn't excuse the blatant power grab and spending spree Congress and the President have been on.

    While Jon is hilarious, and always cracks me up, like Rush Limbaugh (ugh) he is firstly entertainment, and secondly actual political reporting. Tea parties were not about targeting Obama alone, they are the result of 8+ years of overspending, this last stimulus package push was just the straw that broke the camel's back. The media on the left has twisted it into some Republican anti-tax movement as a strawman argument, and the media on the right has claimed it as it's own to try to steal some glory from it. But it's really been a grassroots movement, started by a few people here and there around the country (one of the first was my friend Keli in Seattle, a math teacher who was fed up).
