The Billionaires' Tea Party - Trailer - Available on DVD

[leaving1977]

it is really interesting there is Tea Party and at the same time the Occupy movement.

but the latter is for the "99%", the former one just a pro-corporate, pro-elite, pro-status quo, and pro- (even) white one. isn't it a crossroad for people to make a critical choice? isn't it like what happened in the 1930's in Europe?

[FreeAmericaRP2012]

Though I am not a member of the tea party since it was hijacked from the Ron Paul movement I can still see a lot about this film is just Leftist propaganda. Anyone could go down to occupy wall street and make this exact film but against them all you have to do is find the stupid ones in the crowd and let them speak. Yes it is hijacked by corporations but so is every movement lately and probably forever. OWS is hijacked, it's all hijacked. We're fucked.

Ron Paul 2012 - so far still grassroots!

[LittlePinky82]

These people are insane. My favorite is the AK47. I thought they hated commies so why are they using our gun?

[raocool1986]

As a member of the TEA Party movement for 2 years I have never seen, met, or heard from any corporation or billionaire. To me this type of video contains numerous lies, accusations, and miss-characterizations of the TEA Party. Major TV networks, entertainment industries, universities & newspapers are owned by billion dollar corporations and yet most tilt LEFT/DEM in their reporting. Name me one "News" TV Network(Besides sometimes Fox) that support TEA Party? The lying Left strikes again....

[darknight651]

@raocool1986 Whats teaparties Goal?

[raocool1986]

@darknight651 It depends on which Tea Party group you ask. There are hundreds of TEA Party groups located all over the US, in every state. Mostly they strive for a return to the US Constitution as a basis for federal government. Also they ask for a reduction in government spending because they realize how far in debt both the Democrats & Republicans have pushed the US. (Currently US Debt = $15,000,000,000,000.00)

[LittlePinky82]

@raocool1986 Lmao didn't you just watch the video of Fox supporting it? Talk about a liar.

[shekinaluvs4]

Where is the hatred coming from..lets just send love, light and blessings to all of these fanatics...



[LittlePinky82]

@shekinaluvs4 Yeah, you go do that and see how far you get.

[fredmalone104]

Seeing this makes me ashamed to be a human being...

[jteeselink]

Or should he say "your Overloard" or is it better "our Overloard"

[jteeselink]

You don't address Mr. Koch as Mr. Chairman! You'll address him as "my Overloard" and you better not fail in doing his bidding!

[offmymedsgeezer]

These people are seriously whacked! It would be funny if it wasn't a sign that fascism is alive and well. Here in Canada, 40% of actual voters voted for Steven Harper. 60% did not. The result stems from our voting system (just like the American system)- a majority. Some of his supporters are the Canadian version of these folks. Heaven help us all! Thank you, poster.

[clerven]

Will this movie be all allegations or offer up some proof? I am tired of

people talking bullshit. Put up or shut up!

[Remus0387]

I believe there a genuine grassroot parts of the tea party, but the majority power base, it's leaders and spokepersons are propped up and organised and funded by billionaires and corporate leaders, to advance their agenda and give the impression that the Tea Party is just a spontaneous movement, when it's not anything of the sort. The Tea Party movement isn't racist, but it has racist elements, at it's heart it's a manufactured movement of corporate america to battle Obama and his adminstration.

i like the duck dance in the background

[TREYOLDHIPPIE]

wow how sad. if anyone cant tell Fox News is STUFFED with 'thinly' veiled opinion, judgement and criticism of matters they only see in pictures or sound bites..

there must be a lot of sad people who really NEED SOMEONE TO LEAD THEM.. and the rich FOX news WILL DICTATE what IS 'good' or not. I prefer to gather facts based on information, not instructions 'thinly veiled' as news. Its GARBAGE INNUENDO.. and I'll take independant, not mob madness, thank you.

[decentwork4decentpay]

when fasicm arrives in america it will be raped in an american flag and a cross lol

damn these people are crazy dumb asses.

[SickBoyInCorduroy]

this movie's a little late, the tea party tax day protests this week (which were previously their biggest successes) had about 5% of the people they had on previous tax day protests.

I think many of them are now probably just seeing the consequences of their actions and the whole thing's fizzling out.

Of course the stupidest of the movement (like that lady screaming "worse than hitler") are gonna hold on to it forever. But stil, it's dead.

[DaKID2542]

TEA PARTY.....LOL

[cos2mwiz]

The Republican leaning brain has been scientifically proven more susceptible to fear. Fox turning these average folks into willfully ignorant sheep. Pathetic.

[AloneAndOld]

These people are worried about ObamaMunism?

[nowaynohow26]

Liberals need to get organized in these rural communities. A lot of these people are on government assistance and don't realize their beliefs are being manipulated by corporations. Really it's our fault because we let them stew in their ignorance and somebody else filled the void. In some sense, I think some tea party members grievances are justified but completely hijacked and misdirected. We got to share part of the blame here folks.

[alebertfama]

For the most part Obama is a "corporate conservative." Bush's foreign policies, military spending, and corporate contracting are fully continuing. It would be amusing to see FOX-Koch brothers' reactions if there were a real progressive in office. FDR for example.

[g4macdad]

The second amendment CLEARLY distinguishes free speech rights for citizens and commercial speech. The "tea party" is NOT protected by the second amendment, and these MORONIC hillbillies have never read a single WORD of our constitution.

*

Wisconsin is the REAL deal, and we need to stand in solidarity with them.

[jfjeffries]

@g4macdad Actually isn't that the first amendment? And furthermore, most of any "clear" distinction between personal and commercial speech has been eroded by several court cases from the early 1800's on. Might try reading about corporate personhood. The fact that it is not clearly defined, or has been diluted by the courts is a big part of the problem. I'm not defending these people, but clarity is important when trying to fix problems as severe as we are facing.

[RulesOfLaw]

Use the internet search who own the american news media. FOX NEWS / CNN / MNBC/ ABC. Then Put the dots together instead of beliving all the bull.s.h..i.t that you hear. use you tube if you have to cause they sure own the media for there own benefits / banks / control our gov /politicians and many the more you find out the more headache you seem to get.

[CTFxCsoldierNumber27]

if you actually think obama is a socialist, let alone a Communist, you had better starte read the Communist Manifesto. obama is a liberal elitist. giving taxpayer funded bailouts to corporations? accelerating an imperialist war of aggretion? thats no Communist or socialist.

[rodzmen1]

The only thing that would make someone follow that kind of shit is that they themselves think that when all is said and done since they were good little slaves they will actually get a big piece of the pie and their lives won't be so sucky. Because they are some seriously angry folks. They hate everything.

[SpazzzDog]

Netflix man!!

[Th3Wab3]

hmm

[gonadcancervictim]

yeah local level goverenance

[blackiron60]

This is what fascism looks like.

[AlternativeViewTV]

@blackiron60 NAZI-FASCISM (Fascism with National Racism)

[fatmaggi]

@blackiron60 I was just about to write that...and then I saw your post. It's EXACTLY what fascism looks like.

[decentwork4decentpay]

@blackiron60 i agree :) these people are dumb right wing clowns that dont know jack shit...

[usintelreport]

1:45

I know where she got that garbage from.

But I have no Idea where she got the rest after that from

[a300pilotster]

Wonder if that lady would feel the same way if she sat down and had lunch with Pres Obama, his wife and their two beautiful young girls.

[voyeurdug]

Understand that this is only a trailer, but though predisposed to believe where this ~seems~ to be going... this proved nothing.

Here's the premise... then... he said, she said, he said, she said... clip from here, clip from there... then the video's over.

Huh?

[MarmaladeINFP]

That lady at 1:25 is just plain crazy. I always wonder how a person like her becomes that way. What kind of life has she lived that has led her to be filled with so much hatred and paranoia? I understand the rightwing media feeds into that mindset, but can it really be blamed all on rightwing media? Was that lady once a calm friendly person until one day she turned on the radio to hear the voice of Limbaugh? Or was she always a bit mentally unbalanced and the Tea Party has given her a platform?

[DeeDemonwitch]

@MarmaladeINFP It's like you read my mind

[MarmaladeINFP]

@DeeDemonwitch I often wonder such things. I see the people that get media attention. Part of me is just shocked that someone so radical gets so much attention in the first place. After the shock wears off, I find myself curious about what led this or that person to a place in their life where they unashamedly rant nonsense to a camera for all the world to see. I truly sympathize with feeling angry and frustrated, but even so I find myself incapable of sympathizing with ignorant ranting.

[rodzmen1]

@MarmaladeINFP I used to wonder the same thing. How did someone get that way? But they did scientific research and they actually took pictures and measured brain activity between the right and the left. The right have some serious issues. They actually have extremely large fear centers in their brains. So when Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh start saying shit like Obama is going to kill them and shit they take that seriously. Scares the shit right out of them. Sad really.

[MarmaladeINFP]

@rodzmen1 Yeah. I know about that research. It's quite fascinating. I recently wrote a very long & detailed post about the correlation between conservatism & traits related to fear & violence.

benjamindavidsteele.wordpress. com/2011/01/28/do-rightwingers­-love-war/

[rodzmen1]

@MarmaladeINFP NICE! It makes things easier to understand. Not so frustrating anymore. I guess we should try to be more understanding with them right? Can't make fun of something they can't help. It would be like making fun of someone with downs syndrome. Just all wrong.

[beta447]

@MarmaladeINFP My thoughts exactly. How, why, who...HOW?

[guydudeasian]

@MarmaladeINFP Everything she said either doesn't matter or isn't true. What gave you the notion that he's a racist? And when did he ever say he wanted to destroy the world? You say what he is doing is worse than killing 6 million Jews?

[MarmaladeINFP]

@guydudeasian What gave you the notion that I had the notion he's a racist? I didn't bring up racism. I didn't even mention the word in any of my comments. I honestly don't know what you're talking about.

[guydudeasian]

@MarmaladeINFP I was directing my comments to the woman in the video. Sorry for the mixup.

[MarmaladeINFP]

@guydudeasian I see. LOL

I was confused by your comment. I probably should have asked you if your questions were directed at me. It obviously didn't make sense which is why I should have questioned my initial response. My bad. :)

Aren't internet miscommunications amusing?

[guydudeasian]

@MarmaladeINFP Yep. Which is why texting is never the same as talking face to face.

[Doogibo]

@MarmaladeINFP

I'm sure your latter suggestion is the correct one. These people often have genuine grievances with their administration. Combined with being completely politically ignorant they're vulnerable to straightforward sounding messages from charismatic propagandists.

[LightAngel1960]

@MarmaladeINFP I'm all for Obama killing white people if she is the first to go ;)

[coxhere1]

@MarmaladeINFP Does this dangerous ideologue really believe her lies? Does she ever listen to herself? And get a flavor of how CRAZY she is? I bet she's procreated too! I'm sure she doesn't believe in abortion! Come to think of it, I bet she's a "good-loving-christian-hater." Her religion makes her hate!

[darknight651]

@MarmaladeINFP I thinked the same You mentioned.

[nyambush11]

I've really followed these debates in the Internet,and i would like to say one thing,Kuddos to Obama for brainwashing 40 Million Kenyans into believing he was not born in Kenya,because quite seriously the only people who believe that Obama was not born in Kenya have never set foot in Kenya,while the Kenyans just go about their daily lives undisturbed.

[mad8london247]

@nyambush11

Interesting question. Where's the Birth Certificate? Wonder how many Americans can get hold of their birth certificates?

Any case, I hear thatObama is a Kenyan spy and that Kenya will be taking over America soon.

[nyambush11]

@mad8london247

where do you people get this information?No seriously,where do you people get this information?

Rest assured Kenyans have other things on their mind and other than taking over America.

[mad8london247]

@nyambush11

That's what I get from across the pond. I didn't even know that Soviet Tanks are supposed to be all over London due to our Universal Healthcare and that we have death panels killing grandmothers. Funny that I've never seen the tanks...must be disguised.

[nyambush11]

@mad8london247 and i sued to think that the 'Obama born in Kenya' was the craziest rumour out there.Which is funny,because my friend went to Kogelo(his supposed birthplace) and found no such rumours,infact,the people in Kogelo including members of Obama's family had no idea of his existance till he visited them in 1982.Oh,well,who cares!all i can say to these theorists who say Obama was born in Kenya is,keep it up,you are boosting our tourist industry.

[darknight651]

@mad8london247 Hell is coming soon.
