[BearFan09]

How the media portrays the Tea Party:

-Old

-Ugly

-From the country

-Republican

Who they actually are (from video):

-Young

-Attractive (that one girl)

-From the south side of Chicago

-Independent ("bi-partisan")

When it shall be said in any country in the world, my poor are happy; neither ignorance nor distress is to be found among them; my jails are empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars; the aged are not in want, the taxes are not oppressive; the rational world is my friend, because I am the friend of its happiness: when these things can be said, then may that country boast its constitution and its government. Thomas Paine

[MrFreedomworks]

I was there. I saw a sign by a liberal group that read Palin is a NAZI. I guess the news media failed to report

[mathteachercps]

"Throw the bums out" "Put them in Jail." I agree!!! G.W. Bush should be held accountable for lying to the American People to start an unnecessary war in Iraq, costing millions in lives and money. I truly feel bad for the woman who remortgaged her children's future to pay, in large part, for the war in Iraq. TAXES? I received the largest refund I can remember because of the TAX CUT that OBAMA passed. This is not word of mouth, this is MONEY IN MY POCKET. THANK-YOU, OBAMA!

[demonhunter5110]

@mathteachercps Who do you think is gonna pay for those tax cuts and bail outs?There is no such thing as free money.People like us are trying to stop them from taxing us to the stone age but people like you have no clue what is going on. Its like charging everything on a credit card.eventually you have to pay it Do you even know what cap and trade tax is?Try getting taxed for breathing. taxes on cows flatulence, your gasoline, natural gas, phone bill, food, clothing etc. that is what that is

[kageoftheshadow]

woh, who is that blond? I didn't think there were any freedom minded, constitutionalists that were that attractive. why can't I find a girl like that in New York!!!!!!!!!!!!

[libertarianjury]

"Concerned with trying to get student loans in the next couple of years..." LOL

Give me freedom! (As long as I can still get a low-interest government-gauranteed loan!)

The more I see these tea party collectivists blindly groping in the dark for answers, so long as that groping doesn't bring them closer to the sunlight of individualism, the more hopeless it looks to me. Then again, at least the town squares aren't empty. Who knows where this will lead? Read up, tea party! ISIL FIJA etc.

[elyknave]

Obama says he was amused by our rallies, and we should thank him!

We need to reissue the declaration of independence and Hold emergency elections.

And reset the Constitution.
