Go Tea Parties.

No more taxes except for Democrats.

Let DEMOCRATS pay more taxes.

I think that you are missing the point. Most of us are just as miffed at the Republicans as we are at the Democrats. Very few in office seem to be listening to the people of this country. This country has founding principles that are used to guide us. Most in Washington are no longer reading and living them if not stomping on those principles out right.

What a bunch of morons! Here's a clue for you folks...America VOTED in November 2008. Your guy lost! Your party lost! Your programs lost! We elected these folks with the majority...which is incidentally the WAY our system of government works!...to enact exactly the kind of changes they are enacting. So now, the rest of you whiners, complainers, and ill-informed dolts, can just go sit down, and shut up!

Tools. They do not even know what they are protesting. A budget neutral plan designed to help 46 million people get insurance? Where were they when we had a president who really did lie – and got us into 2 wars, tortured people, and a huge budget deficit??? Unbelievable.

The country DOES deserve better, that's why we voted "conservative" Republicans out, and will continue to do so in2010 and 2012

No if he was a socialist then he would know how to spell- people living in our country should know how to speak English I tell you.

Where were these same people when Bush shot missiles into family weddings full of civilians?

Oh yes. They were defecating in their trousers out of pure joy as they watched the very 'values' that they voted for come to fruition.

Most of these people don't even grasp the sad fact that they don't make or have enough money for the GOP to care at all about them. They just want their vote...their 'Real American' (e.g. their White, Conservative, racist and religious bigotry) vote.

This is the real America. Right on !

The dude can not even spell "Socialist", I bet he doesn't even know what it is. He is a good example of an uneducated American, And he is proud of it!
In Western societies (Western Europe) this is not even a question and they are far from being Cuba and North Korea...
Dude, go and get a passport and see how people can manage life better than we do here. Of course, it would be like "Why don't you leave and live there???". Because I like living in my country and woud like to live better with better health care. Health care must be a right in a developed society, not a priviledge. If not, we are not a developed society.

Something tells me that I am financially supporting more than one tea partier with my tax dollars and high insurance rates.

I've seen this "Johnny Burwell" before. I think he's been hired and well paid by the GOP. What a twit!!!!!

These people are proving that you really can't fix stupid. We need reform NOW!!!!

CNN will broadcast statements from anyone who wants to criticize Obama. Many of these poor slobs don't even know what they are talking about but still will mouth right wing slogans or talking points that they have heard these wingnuts repeat.

Just another fine example of how the GOP is leading the poor, sweet little lambs to slaughter. It's amazing how so many people are totally blindsided by propaganda.

Wow a tea party.where were the tea party people when the
conservatives when Pres.Bush was spending billions.now that
Pres.Obama is trying to bring the country out of the trouble we are in the tea party people want to grab the news cycle with their nonsence.
get a life and instead of complaining work for solutions the right
way.You are being led down the path wrong way.

When these packs of Republicans, out to destroy everything in their wake , soon discover that their health insurance refuses to pay for most procedures and their premiums continue to sky-rocket, will they totally understand what reforms means. For now, they are following what is told to them by the GOP. Ninnys!

These people will only understand when they too lose their insurance coverages. Only then, will they wake up and smell the coffee.

The Tea Party Express is what we get for raising a generation of math-illiterate persons with no critical thinking skills.

Just how do these people think we pay to keep criminals in prison and keep track of parolees?

And almost no one in the US (least of all Republicans) understands that multi-trillion dollar wars (as in Iraq), that are fought entirely to help transfer taxpayers funds to private corporations like Halliburton...have to be paid for by someone.

And when Wall Street bankers steal trillions thanks to the Republicans' "no regulation" philosophy, someone has to pay the bills at the end of the day;.

It would seem to me that most of the people in this movement were scolding true conservatives for complaining about Bush Sr, Bush Jr, and Reagan's record deficit-spending habits, but now that Obama is engaged in deficit spending (this time for an actual useful purpose, unlike the previously-mentioned ultra-liberal predecessors), the spending is suddenly a problem for them.

Besides all that, do these people really want to see 20-30% of our GDP going toward healthcare expenses just a few years from now if we keep up the current situation? Personally, I'd rather see our nation survive, with changes in the healthcare system, than become enslaved to the Chinese by keeping the Pro-Health-Insurance-Lobby Status Quo. If that makes me a Socialist, then so be it. I think I'll go take a drive on a Socialist-built road while the Socialist Fire Department stands guard in case my house starts on fire while I'm out.

It's like the circus has come to town. All emotion, no real logic.

Puppets! Believing whatever your church tells you; and by the way should be paying taxes if they're going to try to influence politics. Obama's health insurance reform and public option will benefit everyone except the greedy CEOs and executives in the health and pharmaceutical industry who are out on their yachts while your grandmother is denied coverage for a lump in her breast that was found 6 months ago, and your nephews medication is not covered and you have to pay out of pocket. Wake up and get a clue!!!

These people are wasting their time. They belong in the same class as other conspiracy theorists who think such things as the government was involved in 9/11 or that the moon landings were faked.

In other words people, stop making up your own world view and start looking for the actual facts.

Health care reform is going to happen, in spite of your ignorance.

U.S. imbecility at its most strident. Good education for all but the most fortunate economically stopped after Reagan was elected. This is an example of the result.

It's good to see people who have never read Marx and have no idea what socialism is erroneously use the term. Casually tossing around the term "socialism" has become popular again, just like when Sen. McCarthy did so.

A group of morons screaming about a false chaos, drummed up by bigger morons who are stuck in the 50s.

Get a brain!

Dissent al over the country is taking on a pathological condition:
People have been yelling for change,but when the chips are down they retreat and find out that they are afraid of change,called fear.F E A R stands for False Expectations Appearing Real.
TheDSA (Devided States of America) are spoiling for a second Civil War.The end result inevitably will be the collapse of the country as we know it.It happened to the (once mighty )Soviet Union,remember?
I hope I am wrong for that perceived scenario will change the political-economic structure of the rest of the world also.
Can you hear China laughing?

What I have heard today has all totally been negative." She says, "Nobody has given me a solution."
------------------------------
That why most American stop listing to these nuts and they are the same nuts that didn't vote for the President anyway. They just mad and don't even know what they are mad about.

The Republicans used to be the Party of Christian,working class conservatives. Somehow the GOP has been hijacked by ignorant violent trash carrying assault rifles and swatikas spurred on by the racist rants and lies and scare tactics of neo nazis like Hannity, Beck and Limbaugh who are serving their greedy crooked corporate puppet masters. This filthy remnant of the once great GOP has generated more than four hundred death threats against the popularly elected President of our United States. The current state of the GOP is not just ugly and sad. It is scary.

Just the same old people that didn't vote for the President anyway. Who care!

so let me see...if any of these people are retired and collecting social security or on medicare doesn't that technically make them socialists by default?

I hope the Joneses who are in their 60's know that social security, and medicare are social programs. like most hypocrits, I'll bet they will take the socialistic money the day they are eligible.

It seems that the Republican party values money over life except when it uses the abortion issue as a guise to pretend to care about quality of life. Do you ever hear a Republican say that we must make life better for all or do they only care about themselves? Watch the Fox talking heads like Hannity or O'Reilly and see how many times the health care issue is talked about and how the purpose of health care is not talked about! The cost is all that matters but what if it was their family member that had no insurance? False idols!!!

Several hundred of the Glenn Beck 'Beckerheads' are out spreading their lies, hate, and fear. What a group of morons.

[...] "Tea Party Express cruises through Nevada" – CNN – "Political [...]

Tell Carolyn Rowe that Bush and Cheney already trounced the Constitution. Where was the "Tea Party" when they and the Republicans were in charge and putting this country in so much debt? That's just pure hypocrisy!

America the Beautiful, home of the ignorant! These people need to read the Constitution and then take a close look at the Bush Administration, that did indeed trample the Constitution.

We are so far from a Socialist country, it's not funny. However, under Bush, we were definitely heading toward a totalitarian state (or at least a feudal one, given how the wealthy were favored).

Where was these folks' anger back then?

It's socalism for the rest of us, but lifestyles of the rich and famous for Obama – renting a $35,000 a week compound! How self-indulgent and what a poor model while people are losing their homes and jobs.

If you think your good life will last under a health care system without a public option, you will be very disappointed. I am a fiscal conservative against Wall Street bailouts, but our economy badly needs a Public Plan. Perhaps the non-profit non-partisan Kaiser Family Foundation can provide you some facts for you to think about before it's too late.

Next stop: Lala Land

These people are selling out their own fellow citizens.

Some lady at the tea party waiting for a politician to offer her solutions. I feel we need a test in this country for voters if you have no clue then you have to go back to work on voting day, better yet the spot on the ballot that says no faith. I'm here to vote because I care but neither of the two politicians preapproved for me to vote for are near my honest approval. That would win in so many states!

I basically agree with these people on the issue of taxes and their dislike of socialism. However, we have lived in a partially socialist society since FDR's new deal. The social security and medicare programs are both socialistic in nature. I haven't heard anyone at these rallies suggest that either of these programs should be repealed. Socialism is like red wine. It can be healthy for a country as long as it is used in extreme moderation.

We continue to see and hear from people who have been brainwashed by fear mongers and deceptively incorrect information. Ignorance and self absorption will be the downfall of this great country!

he says he will not be a socialist, he looks like he is on MEDICARE and getting SOCIAL SECURITY checks every month..........not thinking as usual

They say they are not a mob, but show up with signs on pitchforks. They show up with handguns and semi-auto rifles. They call themselves right wing terrorist.

Their preachers pray to God to give President Obama brain cancer and preaches how much he hates him. (google or utube Faithful Word Baptist Church).

They aren't mobs. They just look and act like mobs. Mobs of morons.

They will find out they are not the majority, silent or not. We the decent people of the United States of America are the majority. They are just a bunch of nutcases.

Carville and Rowe, how much time do you give a person to bring about change and improvement...particularly to a person who is required to negotiate with impertinence and work with impatience among his people. I think you haven't given him enough time, like maybe a year or two, to make a difference. Stand behind this young man and let him hear encouragement , not criticism. He would appreciate it, I'm sure. Nine months are hardly enough or adequate!

What a pack of morons. Do these idiots even understand remotely the meaning of "Socialist"?

No I thought not.....

Most of these people screaming "socialism " have no idea what it means. Most of the voted for Bush and had no problem with him spending billions on war, but because this President wants to help the poor have a better health insurance and health care it is somehow , socialist? Most of these folks protesting are drawing Social Securit, I want all of them to stop taking it right now, since that is a government program and I want them to stop taking the medicare , which is a government rrun health care option as well. What hypocrites!

There are nut shavings in your tea bags people. This claim must be true since a few clowns humiliate themselves nationally as they claim to believe President Obama is attempting to turn a republic into a socialist nation. Have these tea bag brains considered researching socialistic models of political governance. Look at the picture for the image of idiocy. Say goodnight Johnny.........

Proof that in politics, what we hate most in the opponent is what "our own people" are doing:

From the article: "I believe he's trouncing the Constitution and taking control of our country in a direction we don't want."

"I think he has a hidden agenda, and I think he doesn't tell the truth and that in itself bothers me."

it's an accusation against Obama that exactly describes the prior administration.

It's astonishing that this can go on like this and people don't notice what they're doing.

why not call it the clueless and nerd express, that would be more in line with those in that group, and, funded by a conservative group? enough of their stupidity

I don't agree with republicans trying to hijack the tea parties as if all the sentiment is shared by the Bush Cheney people, most on the ground are still just as upset about all that crap as well. Sorry, the new tea parties were Libertarian but not covered as well until Fox news saw the opportunity to encorporate it as if it were anti Obama. Not even close bible bumpers.

I am totally surprised to see an article about protestors to the Healthcare Reform and Obama administration get press anywhere else but Fox News. Most of the mainstream media won't print it because they are so biased and they would like to make everybody believe the country is all for it. I have never been politically active but have found myself sick to see the direction the country is headed in under Obama's leadership with Pelosi, Reid and all those nefarious Czars at the helm. It is time to stand up and make some noise or we will lose our hard won liberty to thugs and thieves. Speak out Americans!

A. Czar's were part of the Monarchy before socialist Russia. B. I did not see the tea party protest President Bush, while Bush grew the size of the gov't AT LEAST as much as any other president. C. One of the Tea Party members kept saying "i think" instead of stating actual facts. D. Their stated opinions are Palin-esque in making up facts that could very well be true under private insurance. The governments not going to allow you to go to your own doctor? Really?

These anti-socialist idiots don't even realize how many socialist programs they currently benefit from.

I say let them sign a registry to disqualify them from any "socialist" programs that they don't want any part of.

Wow. Enough of the wackos already!!! The lady who's son died in Iraq that protested Bush didn't get nearly as much press as these wackos get!

Watch out for IEDs along the way. The leftists / socialists are getting desperate!

Get ready Obamaites, and self serving political do-nothings you haven't seen anything yet. Your Messiah and his far left group of "community organizers" has awakened the sleeping masses of intelligent and informed middle class American tax payers. You know, the ones that had bought in on all that "Gee, this is the right thing to do crap" and "I want to help the poor and impoverished better themselves with my tax dollar." The dog has bitten the hand that feeds them, we have seen the agenda, the techniques and "Movement" and now they shall feel the wrath of the bitten Owner!

Regulate Lawyers, Regulate Corporations, Term Limits, Voter Reform!

The Dems will "mark" these legitamet protesters with mounds of hate speech in an attempt to discredit. However, they will be unsuccessful as the tide of political change turns against the Democratic Party. I have to laugh out loud to realize that Obama himself is the effective change agent he advertised himself to be... not for liberal views but for conservative views – as America realizes the folly of his election.

Tea Baggers make me laugh. The idiot with the "I will not be a Socialist" sign might as well hold a sign that says "Sociopathy, Not Socialism!"

Who told all of these people to stop their meds all at once?

Don't these tea party people have anything positive to say about this country. Nay Sayers and complainers, what a downer. Impeach everyone, ? do these folks think they can do a better job running this country, if so why aren't they out there running in elections. I personally thank all these public service people, republicans and democrats and independants, they spend their lives trying to improve this country, many could make more money outside of government. I especially thank Ted Kennedy for the millions of children now on Chip insurance, school lunches, and many other programs we take as a given. and I will thank this congress and senate for passing the healthcare reform bill, Ted Kennedy is right, it is a right not a priviledge. . Jane Boucher.

let's hope the TEA party folks will move to another country if they don't like this one. some of them call obama a socialist,some hitler. he can't be both although i doubt that they really know what each term really means. i hope they all get what they deserve. the healthcare system in this country needs reform very badly. just saying no to everything doesn't help make things better.

Ignorance

Nothing but misguided ignorance

These people remind me of monkeys with sound bite notes in their mouths

Sure feels Republican to me ?????

The TEA PARTY EXPRESS ...

LAUGH OUT LOUD ... MORONS ON PARADE

I am ASSUMING that all of these "anti-socialist" idiots will not be accepting Medicare or Social Security when they get old enough.

Right, CNN?

Right?

Someone please respond!

Hey Burwell, when it comes time to get your social security check, send it back.

Well done TEA partiers

Ride on America!

These people obviously haven't been hit by the Bush economy to be able to afford driving their SUVs and campers across the US in an attempt to. Have "more voice" than the rest of us.

But just like Joe the fake plumber, they'll gladly take assistance when they need it while denying others the same in a bad siuation.

These people are sick, greedy people who think the worst of their fellow americans.

Dems to CIA: no one is above the law.
Tea party to Dems: You are below the low!

"Carolyn Rowe came to the tea party in a T-shirt depicting Obama as the joker from "Batman." In place of the familiar "Hope" logo of Obama's campaign was the word "Joke."

-Carolyn, "Joke" was your buddy GWB not BO.

"She fears losing her choice of doctor if health care reform passes."

- You already have lost your choice of Doctors with the Private Health Insurance companies "In-network", "out of network" fiasco.

"What I have heard today has all totally been negative." She says, "Nobody has given me a solution."

In the first place, it's not the responsibility of the Tea Party people to come up with solutions–that's what we hire Congress to do.

In the second place, the health care problems are complex and there's no one solution to them all.

In the third place, if Ms Hatfield is an Obama supporter, history suggests she'll dismiss with contempt any solutions offered by Tea Party supporters. Obama supporters, on the whole, look to government to solve their problems; Tea Party supporters, on the whole, think government is the problem and look just about anywhere else for solutions.

I love a goood party when are you going to get to Baltimore,Md.

The tax cuts they've received make these folks unhappy? I don't get it. Do they even know what they're protesting? Or do they all make over a quarter of a million a year?

Honestly, the angry low-information voter is the greatest threat to this country there is.

I been to Elko Winemuca and so.. Most of those people would not be able to point Alabama on a map.. so what is a socialist to them? Judging by the comments they don't have a concept of what is been propossed, so how can they have an educated opinion?

Just my two cents..

hope it fails. to far to the right and our leaders now are to far to the left when a middle movement comes out i will listen to them.

There is a huge difference between were and we're

How's a 9 TRILLION $$$ deficit? NBD Right! As long as your part of the 40% of the country that does not pay ANY income taxes. The only positive side of this I can see, is that my 15 year old daughter now understands why you only buy what YOU can comfortably pay for.

See ya in DC on 9/12! You are either part of the solution or part of the problem!

I don't think these people have anything to do but wasting their precious time for no reason. They need to look for something better to do than making the American people to know what have behind the scence for over 200 years. Most of the tea party goers are not educated so it is a disappointment to the American society. Go home and ask your kids to educate you about the word "CHANGE". Your all are still sleeping. Wake up, America had turned in a new direction and will never or ever turn back to more than 200 years ago activities. Get over it and start a new life. The next president will be a native American hero. It is just starting so get over it. Next will be a chinese America president and so on and on. You guys are done. Eight years for Obama and another hundred for other contributors to this great nation.

The folks that brought us into a war in Iraq are complaining that they are being taxed without representation?......... you have to be kidding, right?

When the president of the united states treats other countries better than his own,everyone should worry. When he gets his own cilvial military , no one will be able too have a tea party.

Why is this bus covered on CNN but the Get it Done bus, which drew over 1500 people in Denver on Friday not getting covered? There are 10 times as many people FOR changes to our health insurance as there are against it.

I agree. uhbumba is a joke and should be impeached. He should also be brought up on war crimes.

The short bus in on the loose! Be wary!

"I think a lot of people are just waking up and getting active. People are reading and educating themselves," he says, "I think too many of us that have been working, busy raising families and haven't been involved."
-------------–

Education or educated should never be used in the same sentence with the current ilk of Conservatives.

I voted for Reagan but am enjoying watching right wingnuts get a taste of their own medicine!

"You are either with us or you are against us." What did Bush say that they don't understand?

We can kiss bipartisanship & reasoning goodbye. Just sock it to them!

Bunch of simple tools these folks, from their rich overlords to their corporate and insurance industry sponsors.

A large number of these "patriots" are on social security and receive medicare, medicaid and possibly food stamps.
Do these geniuses have any thoughts on how to improve the heath care in this country or do they think it is perfect the way it is.
They are just afraid they will lose their place at the trough.
Health care is not mentioned in the constitution so I don't see how Carolyn Rowe makes that leap. If she doesn't agree with an issue then it's obviously trouncing the constitution.
Obama should go on vacation to his ranch and clear brush until the next election. Maybe Sarah Palin can make these morons happy.
If I had the power I would reimburse any equity they have in these programs and wish them the best of luck in the open market.

We need a Tea Party Movement about as much as we need Cheney for President...

All I want is the same health care that the President, Senators, and Congressmen have. Seems to me that is not too much to ask for. Most of these people can afford private health insurance but they choose the government plan. It must be better, and I want what they have and pay what they pay for it. Plain and simple.

Does anyone notice how each of their "complaints" is steeped in "me, me, me?"

The woman afraid of losing her choice of doctor – what about those of us who have no choice at all? Those who cannot get insurance due to prexisting conditions (which in some cases are as simple as having been admitted into the hospital for one night ten years ago). Or those who work 2-3 jobs yet are not offered insurance through that job and can barely make the rent.

And the man who said: "I got a good life I don't want em messing it up." Completely selfish.

I don't think they care about anything but themselves – and are afraid to admit it, so they speaky loudly and carry a stick with Obama's face pierced through it. Nice.

Do these people ever have to go to work? Or do they fool around all the time, accomplishing nothing but bad manners?

So much for the so-called "non politcal" agenda of this group. Not much commentary about healthcare reform, just more anti-Obama slavering. I love the guy who said the Republicans on the buses were just as upset with their own party over healthcare reform. Let's face it, it's all about the right-wing back lash, not about healthcare reform.

Of course, all the Tea Prty advocates are proposing counter-ideas as to how to fix the problem, right?! Of course they're not because the right-wing radio/tv zealots haven't got one to crow about because they'll never have one – they think everything is just hunky-dorey!!!

They are a party of pure sheep, and they prove it everytime they show up and disrupt other Americans' rights to hear someone speak. Last time that happened a little Austrian with a funny mustache was orchestrating those "free" protests – and we all know how that turned out now, don't we?!

Where you been for the last 8 years when this country was upside down.
We should have impeached Cheney and Bush. Nothing can be change within 200 days. American people knows better.

The New American Taliban Rides again!

Somebody tell Ms Rowe that many of the current 'czars' are left from the Bush administration...this is not some socialist plot to control the country.

I think this is a great opportunity for those of us who live in cities on their 'tour' where there is a huge discrepency between the 'haves' and 'have-nots' to invite the tea-baggers to see what is really going on. Inner cities, the middle class who work 2-3 jobs yet cannot afford health insurance, folks we preexisting conditions who have been 'banned' from getting insurance, I'm sure there are a million examples in every city on thier list. If we condemn the teabaggers travling across the country by their own words and misguided emotions, we miss a great teaching opportunity. The only problem is, I doubt they would take us up on the offer.

I am so glad people are waking up. We need to start over and throw all of congress, Obama and his communist jailbird czars out of Washington. Oh Pelosi too.

Here comes the Free Lunch Bunch. These are people who think that you can run a modern Democracy in the middle of a global warming crisis which is living on a very fragile global economy with no redundancy built in to the supply chains – and it can all be done for free. No one has to pay taxes. Just ask the road fairy to build highways for you. People have no medicine? They should have thought about that before they got sick. Kids got no decent schools? Screw 'em. Americans going hungry? Let 'em eat cake. The levees are breaking? They shouldn't have put a city there.

Wild fires are threatening MY home and neighborhood? Call FEMA! Call the National Guard! Call the UN! Fly in firefighters from all over the world! Bernis Madoff stole money from me? Where were the regulators? Call Congress into Special Emergency Session! Where is my bailout? Oh, and don't raise my taxes.

And CNN continues to cover this like it's some grassroots organization. This teaparty crap is funded by millionaires against anything the president will do to hurt their bottom line and they are recruiting racist and scaring the elderly. I beg CNN to call it like it is and quit propping this up like it's a bunch of angry Americans. The facts are out there, use them CNN.

There are all coconuts to me

These silly people who participate in these contrived events don't seem to understand they are pawns for the "health" insurance lobby. The insurance lobby that funds this circus certainly is not interested in their health or welfare.

Why are average folks sometimes their own worst enemy? Almost all of these "demonstrators" would benefit enormously from a pubic health insurance lobby, or, even better, universal health care. Fortunately these screamers are a very small minority. But they have figured out how to make a lot of noise thanks to insurance lobby funding.

I will make this real simple.

Where was all this FALSE outrage when Bush was running up the tab on debt? This is nothing but hypocrisy shielded by conservatives out to destroy a Presidency.

Tea Party folks for the most part remind me of the Swift Boat veteran campaign.....I sure hope people don'r sit by and allow themselves to be "swiftboated" by the Tea Parties....becuase that is all it is.

No answers....just a negative press and comments....did you hear me??....no answers just negativity!!

Of course they're driving through Nevada, they only have to chant in front of southern trash that already agree with what they're supporting. I dare them to come up to Maryland- we'd put those fools in their place.

I am not going to comment on the "protests" as this is a free country and individuals have the right to their opinion and the right to voice it. That being said, I really wish people would get off of the "impeach Obama" bandwagon. He has done nothing impeachable. If these individuals wish to be taken seriously they need to stop preaching hate and stop making silly comments like the impeach comment. Again go for it and voice your opinion but for goodness sake make some sense and have some real suggestions.

I hope their caravan has a horrible crash and the all burn to death! I really do hope this! I hate most old people and euthanasia should be mandatory for the elderly we have in this country now. How selfish and hateful they are!

Headlines
" Tea Party Express draws 30,000 at Jonas Brothers concert"

Headlines
" Tea Party Express draws 60,000 at Yankees game"

The real news
"Tea Party Express draws less than 2000 out of 330,000,000 at the Capital on the 4th of July.
Now thats impressive.

"The tour is being funded by Our Country Deserves Better, a conservative political action committee. ...

So do you really believe this is a true "grass roots" tea party or millions being spent to maintain the status quo and "stay the course..." 2000 simple minded people – sacred to death by all the lies about death panels and "socialism"

Dick Armey said in an interview that the widespread protests over health-care reform could not happen unless people were "truly scared." "If you are going to go ugly, go ugly early."

Newest scare tactic? The Republican National Committee suggested in a recent fundraising appeal that Democrats might use an overhaul of the health-care system to deny medical treatment to Republicans.

I'm so tired of hearing how Obama is going to turn us into a socialist country. If you have medical insurance that you can afford then there is no reason to have health care reform. If you can't afford it or it's not available due to a pre-existing condition then we need health care reform. Obama should have signed a bill making Republicans a pre-existing condition then you would see them try and help instead of hinder the effort. Right now the Republicans don't want to work with the Democrats because they make Obama successful and increase his chance to be re-elected in 2010. They would rather see the country in the toilet first.

Instead of wasting gas and time going for a bus ride and having a :Tea Party' why don't you people do something really useful such as collecting food for the families left without a wage earner in the family,or helping families who have been left homeless? CAN'T YOU FIND SOMETHING REALLY CONSTRUCTIVE TO DO INSTEAD OF GRIPING AND COMPLAINING? GET A LIFE"

Nothing but hippies and commies

wonder what this group cost the insurance companys ha-ha

Now that Obama is investigating the CIA where he is going to get intelligence information > I know CNN, MSNBC, facebook, twitter.
If CIA employees could talk, they would tell that they are only going to cruise from now on > find other jobs and or wait for retairement.
I don't get it >

The rich pay almost NO taxes; people making over $250,000 need to start paying their share.

The Tea Party and the town hall protesters have one thing in common. They are doing the media's job for them. The media were not asking the tough questions (and still arent), so average Americans stood up and said will do your job for you. We the people...

I would like to hear more about "Cash For Crooks". I heard that prisoners are getting some of the stimulus money from jail. How can this be happening? This money could be used to create jobs for many taxpaying families. I haven't heard any of this from the mainstream media.

So far, as concerned REAL AMERICAN CITIZENS we still have the right to protest and have our voices heard. My understanding is that they are now trying to cram thru a cyberspace bill which will take away our freedom of speech. Already several networks have taken away our freedoms by not voicing both sides of every issue that comes up. Frankly, I am very surprised cnn even did this article.

Just wait until their insurance companies raise their rates and see whose being taxed then.

Nevada, with 116 degree weather, is a good place for empty heads.

Keep it up no no no no no to this crapy health care plan

What idiots (tea baggers) except for a few of the MC's / Host's
are the only idiot's being looked at to raise their Taxes!

Cry babies making over 250K a year. The 98% of tea baggers
are under that threshold of wealth! Which is amazing to see
how many bigots are willing to sacrifice their own pantry to
allow the top 5% to THRIVE & EAT WELL!

Hundreds showed up? And this makes national news?

And why didn't these tea people wake up and speak out when Bush/Cheney took us into an undeclared war built on lies and fear-killing not only our own soldiers but innocent men, woman, and children-building our national debt and ruining our economy? Do they understand what the are repeating from the likes of an idiot Limbaugh or Palin? Do they have a mind of their own and know the issues? We already have quality social programs in place which many take advantage of. Get the facts before you read your tea leaves. President Obam inherited one colossal mess. Give him time. He is doing a great job and needs our patience and support.

Must be nice to have so much free time to gallivant across the country! I am busy trying to make ends meet. Of course it is much easier to roll around bemoaning life's problems than it is to stand up and face them like an adult, i.e., work hard at your job or do something constructive in the community. Do these same people bother to go read to unlettered children, build for the disadvantaged, feed the hungry, hold a small child at an orphanage or clean the animal cages at a shelter?. Nope. Easier to howl at the moon. The group should be called the "Wee-Wee-Wee Express" [reference the story of "this little piggy" if you don't get the allusion].

The Party of NO to what little people need is getting loud. How do these people have the money to take that much time off from work?

Getting paid by the Republican/Insurance money? Think about it. Follow who benefits most. INSURANCE Companies.

If I was to have a pick for the first to impeach, I would go with Robert Gibbs. The guy is late to just about every press conference, and listening to him stumble across words is worse than listening to Dubya speak. Dubya was at least funny with his made up words. Gibbs doesn't get anything across at all.

Keep the good work Tea Party Express.....there's millions of us out here that support you!

TEA party? More like Whine party.

Great work, I want to be a part of the party, see you in DC

Why is this rolling freak show news?
