Meet the Teabaggers

POSTED: Tuesday, September 15, 2009, 2:00 PM

This would be funny if it weren't the saddest, most frustrating, most infuriating thing I've ever seen. A reporter wanders the grounds of the 9/12 Tea Party protests in Washington D.C. and mostly lets these outraged citizens hang on their own words.

Best footage I've seen of the insanity yet.

We need Obama to find a way to ban this kind of thing.  Maybe it can be regulated as a safety concern, or an environmental thing.  And don't give me that "free speech" bs - there need to be limits.  This is just insane.  People shouldn't be allowed to do this sort of thing.

And to think these people have the intelligence to sort through the issues and actually vote. 



It is important to allow for free speech and I can't say that stopping this is a) leagl or b) would change anything. The best thing for the Administration is to let these good people speak their mind to reinforce why the "moral majority" must be kept from ru(i)nning our country.

In all fairness, I too have laid awake at night wondering who all these "czars" report to, and how much money they make. But, mostly, I wonder where the f**k they buy those awesome hats. And for that matter, is Jason Kay from Jamiroquai in fact a czar? So many questions. I'm going to need a bigger sign.

Fuckin kommies, eat shit and die! When you were throwing your feces all over W and that pallin dudette and basically at whoever tried to talk some sense into you, it was OK, it was freedom of speech. Now, when your opposition reacts to your bullshit, you suddenly want a BAN on these kind of protests. Why don't you scum-vermin-subhuman-good-for-nothing-parasitic-tapeworms go fuck yourselves and fuckin' die, ha?

xxx and MALTA, your guy lost.  Obama is president now and even though he has a lot of Bush's mess to clean up, he's still trying to make things right for the poor who have been short-changed for too long.  Hopefully he will give illegals a quick path to citizenship and lock in a democratic majority for good.  It looks like the game is about to CHANGE - get used to it.

Republicans or conservatives pride themselves on getting higher education and thus deserving to keep the money that the earned through their education.

However this video makes me ashamed to associate myself with the likes of these people.  In a word:  IGNORANT. . . OK 2 words:  IGNORANT & SHAMEFUL... may I also add selfish and greedy too?
