I am so glad the LEFTISTS use the pejorative "teabaggers" all the time. The reason it makes me happy is because it further distances both sides in this country, we will never cooperate again.

i am so depresed of the disinfo many people believe the tea partiers represent. Join us in the fight to help gain our republic back. We need all the help we can get. Resarch your rights, consitituon and get involved. I know some of you guys will not listen but to the people that will take my plea to heart and fight the curpotion
I'd like to thank the tea baggers for going out and showing the American public what the right wing is really about. Inbred trash with racists signs and racist chants. Spitting on people, yelling racist and homphobic verbal assaults and then trying to hide behind the flag. COWARDS!!! Every time you losers have your Klan rally somewhere and spew your hate, Obama gains momentum.
@Wiser72 You are a pathetic liar! Attend a tea party meeting and get a first hand view. They are average American's that are feed up with the left wing Socialist direction that Obama is taking our country.
@Dealit707 BULLSHIT! They're white trash NASCAR fans who don't want a black president. It's as simple as that. Have fun at your next Klan meeting, Jethro.

provides for access by the appointees of the Obama all personal healthcare information, your personal financial information, and the information of your employer, physician, and hospital.violation of provisions of the 4th Amendment to the Constitution protecting against unreasonable searches and seizures. forget about the right to privacyn regardless of what the 3rd and 4th Amendments may provide.
If you decide not to have healthcare insurances called a tax instead of a fine
Funny, just a year ago, when we had a Republican President, we were expected to stand by his decisions regardless of their legal merit or Constitutionality and respect the office for what it was, regardless of whether we agree with them.
The times, they are a-changin'. And the irony is delicious.
Let's see, David Axelrod thouroughly explains how the right-wing nutjobs are in the minority on healthcare in this country and a few boneheads on here prove him right. What a strange world we live in.
BUSH FLORIDA, talk about snagging an election. Wow but I still considered him MY PRESIDENT and treated him with respect, regardless of his IQ score. Because I am an American, Tea Baggers, no, they are just Republicans, ask Texas teabaggers, they said they HATE America. You keep some great company. Why not call them the Texan Al Quadia Division of Anti Americanism.
Wow, you burned me I just wet my pants again. Please dont beat me up pokerbutt LOL
This proves my point, you cannot talk like an adult, your side acted like disgraceful 10th graders during the election and you LOST. Acorn please your guys actually got arrested for casting extra votes Maybe the police are in on it too. Here is a tip. We are all in on it, the flu shot, the moon walk, the birth certificate. Corruption Tom Delay.
Why dont you bring a candidate with an IQ above 100? BTW that is low.
Also the pole included people ON GOVERNMENT RUN SINGLE PAYER Medicare. Sure, all the town halls had older people fighting for No Public Option when they are ON A PUBLIC OPTION. Why dont they just be honest and say "What is good enough for me, is too good for my grandchildren" Greedy, LOL. They rode the system when a week long hospital stay cost a few hundred dollars but dont want their offspring to have a OPTION now that a stay in the Hospital costs a few hundred dollars every half hour.
NOPE you are wrong. The pole asked people "WHO HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE" if they Liked their health insurance. This leaves out the 47 million uninsured or canceled.
This is like asking people who win at Vegas if the casinos are fair.
Plus 5000 families a day are cancelled because of reaching their limit. Your tiny mind cannot grasp that.
What is your provider, how much a month do you pay?
Nope, you lost the election, same whackos who said "he's a Muslim. People always focus on the people who say the most pointless things the loudest. No ideas, just bumper stickers. Republicans watch too much fake news. They are actually believing their own BS.
60,000 people showed up, fact. FOX says 2.5 million LOL Glen Beck cannot count. Big surprise, cant spell, cant sing "Some where over the rainbow" fell out of the closet on that one, sadly most of his viewers think Medicare is a private company. Dumb da Dumb Dumb Dumb. Anyway, all the speakers at the tea bag party all wants "NO Government Health Care" but they support Medicare and use it to scare people over 65. HYPOCRITES! Fact.
"You" are in the minority, check the polls. Before you question the polls remember they called the race correctly prior to election day so you can't throw the results out the window now.
He won by less than 10M. If it hadn't been for ACORN lying and cheating the system he loses. Its ok, Obama in the WH is good that way the country will not put another dumbass liberal in office for another years. Face it without corruption, you know the Chicago way, your boy loses.
You're in denial. Do you remember how many people their were when Obama campaigned in states compared to Mccain? We still outnumber you. All i can say is we'll see. But it's not what you believe, it's what the majority believes that's gonna determine who's in office again. Obama getting elected the first time shoulda beena slap in the face. The way GOP treated Sotomayor made republicans lose alot of the Latino vote.
High Five xBlasian86x, think he bolted. I got back to other things after the election as I thought it was completed for four years (give em a chance to make a change). These guys need to be corrected with the truth. The majority is working and bettering this Country. These guys are busy painting hate signs and running in front of every camera they can find.
I got news for you, the 3rd world is here. If it weren't for the major cities supporting the rest of the country it would be even worse. This is what happens when you don't fund public works, you have fewer jobs, and a crumbling infrastructure. This is exacerbated when you move out manufacturing, which is great for the environment but not so wonderful for the economy.
I'm conservative not republican and I will try to reach out.I applaud obama for slapping tariffs on chinese tire imports.Now let's scrap this garbage socialized medicine bill and introduce a health bill that sticks it to the lawyers.
In July of 2009, the United States paid more than $19 billion in interest on the public debt [$19,812,486,187.83, Office of the Public Debt]. In 2009, according to the CBO, $177 billion of taxpayer funds will be used just to pay interest on the debt—not to pay off the debt, just to pay interest on it.
Third, conservatives are NOT for big business -- if you look at the ties between this administration and Congress and the biggest corporations, you will see that they are very cozy in bed together. Look at GE. All the top multi-nationals contribute so much to the Democrat party and get favors back it is disgusting. You have been lied to for over 40 years. It is time the truth comes out.
I am so sick of the idiots out there trying to claim that these are only racist conservative extremists who are protesting. That couldn't be FURTHER from the truth. First of all, these are people from all backgrounds and views who want America as it was intended...free with limited government. Second, it is NOT about race. That's just ad hominem attacks against people who do not agree with this administration's policies. To disagree with someone's politics does NOT make a person racist.
I'm really getting tired of libertarian "constitutionalists" who think that they profess so much knowledge of American government and history and then make statements like "America ... free with limited government" First of all, "free" is a subjective term. Most people in this country would say we are free, even with healthcare reform. That's good enough for me given the circumstances. Secondly, the founding fathers had just as many disagreements about the role of government then as we do now.
Teabaggers are conservative extremists plain and simple. They complain just to be complaining. They're not serious. They remind me of Abby Hoffman, Jerry Rubin and the yippies.
To all you so called Americans who have derogatory thoughts or comments towards these protesters & you really think they're crazy & out of control, etc.
When their rights start getting taken from them, due in part to your help in feeding the real out of control beast.
I hope you're right about these people & they simply lose it & go nuts! I hope they show up on your front door step with a copy of the constitution encased in lead. With not the slightest interest in talking some sense into you.
I think it would be a better strategy if the Obama administration just coddled these people like a parent would do a misbehaving small child. Instead of the administration saying that these people are wrong, which to them is the government attacking them and further feeding into their conspiracy theories, just say that we look forward to opening dialogue with them and trying to address their concerns. Don't start with the pretense that they are wrong, thus automatically making you right.
the problem is that america in 2009 is a very different place from russia in 1917.Obama can't get away with this crap because the masses are educated and informed.
Face it...you and the other tin-hatters can't stand the fact that we have a Black President.
If these morons were truly "informed, concerned" citizens...they would have been out in force for the last 8 years whle our rights and freedoms were slowly eaten away, our Constitution usurped, our economy heading for ruin and the corrupt Bush/Cheney admin raping and pillaging our nation..and the country of Iraq.
Your words define your lack of intelligence. Obama is a talking head, he only knows whats on the teleprompter. Can't you see your boy is a puppet.The great one's "white" staff is running this country, right into the ground. I wake up everyday and work as hard as I can to make sure the liberals are voted out in 2010 and 2012. I'm so excited its going to be fantastic laughing at you fools after mid-terms.
What does Sarah Palin have to do with any of this? She is more qualified than the great one who you wet your pants over and then faint. Thanks to idiots like you and ACORN your boy stole the election. Those 10 million stolen votes ACORN got for your boy paid off.
Please do no call the President of the United States a "boy," you racist. If you met him face to face you would wouldn't know what to say and would be completely intimidated.
BOYBOYBOYBOY!!!! I'll call him whatever I want! I'm not a racist you ignorant fool, I'm black and my wife is Latin, you are the racist! If I met your boy toy I would get in his face for claiming to be someone he is not! I didn't vote based on race as you did. I voted by the content of the character as the great Martin Luther King advised me to do. Obama has no business being compared to Martin Luther King. King was the greatest man to ever live! He is my second savior!
You guys stole the 2001 election, put that dumb cowboy in the white house and look at what happened ... 9/11 could've been prevented if the president the people voted for, Al Gore, would've been in the white house in 2001. I waited and waited and now i'm having the sweetest revenge, now dumbservatives have to put up with a president that is liberal, black, middle name is Hussein, and is getting the progressive agenda moving on. I'm having the most kick-ass time ever, suffer urpokerboy.... lol
Your a sick little person. If you don't like this country why don't you leave. No one wants your ignorant scum ass here. You are. You are the sewage of this country, GET OUT!!!!!!
People that like this country don't disrespect the President calling him a muslim, Hitler, Marxist. People that like this country support the President and offer suggestions on how to improve the government - not name calling. You right wing evangelical loons are the ones that should sell your trailer houses and leave the USA so the sane people can get on with the business of governing.
I have supported every President I served under during my 30 years of active military duty and 10 years as a federal employee. Never disrespected the sitting President regardless of political party. May have disagreed with some policy but never made personal attacks. Yea! I hated this country so much that I spent 30 years in the military with 3 of those years in combat. I'm not a racist just don't like stupid people or evangelicals.
I hope that you will have something to vote for. The reason people like you are so upset about the country is that the people you support for public office don't give you anything to vote for, they only tell you what to vote against. You can't be voting for freedom because in the great words Republican Senator John Cornyn, "Republicans believe that you won't have any civil liberties if you're dead so we will do whatever it takes to stop terrorist." Including infringing upon your rights idiot.
I feel sorry for little people like you. You have been brain washed and don't even know it. Maybe if you would educate yourself you would see the facts but liberals never want to talk about the facts because their facts don't add up. To bad you poor little fool.
People across america are scared to death the marxist joker will take away their health care plans.Once obama has control of your medical records he's got you by the balls.
Is this an interview or just a soapbox for Axelrod to drone on about his imaginary "mainstream support" for reform?
Now that's some hard hitting journalism, CBS. We all know now the only ones supporting obamacare are extreme leftist radicals like axelrod who don't represent nation's mainstream in the least.
Who is this mainstream I keep hearing about? Did they vote? Why is everything democratic? Really conservatives just like to talk out their ass about how many of them there are. Nobody likes you! Get with the program.
They can and will keep it up because at the end of the day those Teabaggers are Individuals who didn't vote for Obama anyway so why should they even give them any Attention. These are people who happen to be upset that Obama still Won after FoxNews and Hannity spewed all day. These are McCain/Palin Voters who don't care about Taxes or Health Care they're just mad because the Republican Red Meat didn't work last time and Mad that Obama is our President - These Chickenhawks make me laugh!!!
I guess that if people protesting aren't smashing windows and acting like idiots (like leftist "protesters" do), then they really "aren't representative" of what America is feeling, are they, Mr. Broken-axel???
The only ones who "feel" anything are the Cindy Sheehan types, right?!
You're right. I will suck it up. I hope that all these people that are attending these "tea parties" will remember Obama's "promises" and the new debt he's racking up and vote him and the democrats out.
I somewhat agree with you. I think Fox News and other right-wing media groups are jumping the gun a little, "You didn't like our Pres., we don't like yours". However, during his campaign he did promise alot of things that are difficult to deliver. I think he's realizing that right now. I think, in this day and age, it is "normal" for any politician to spend, spend, spend. If anyone wants to cut programs, they become unpopular. Arnold for example.
Well.. Arnold is unpopular b/c he lead the effort to recall Davis claiming the guy was incompetent, then took office and showed that he's equally incompetent. Both claims of which are sort of silly, b/c their govern by ballot measure system is so bad that the state practically ungovernable.
yeah, they are wrong, and so are you... Bush was giving money to both wall st and detroit without requesting anything from them, president Obama fixed TARP so that at least banks return the money and the big 3 in detroit change their ways. GOPers are not interested in passing reform, so why even try to work with them. I think he's done too much. Hillary would've really given them what they deserve, Obama has been too civil with those pigs.
..and just a reminder here quick, your idol, Ronald Reagan, took office in 1981 when unemployment was 6.5%, 3 years later into his administration it was 10.8%, unemployment started going down during his campaign for 2nd term. Obama inherited more problems from your dumb cowboy guy, he fixed TARP, and prevented a potential depression, the stock market is moving up because investors know that the worst is over, now what do you think McCain/Palin were going to do? Be glad that the smart guy won
True and mortgage rates were double digit. Your an ignorant little liberal no one cares about what you are thinking. We know you suffer from the disease.
Mail Online | The line of protesters spread across Pennsylvania Avenue for blocks, all the way to the capitol, according to the Washington Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency.
That was a lie, the pic was fake, from a different event, even Michelle Malkin admitted that it was fake. A couple of thousand Palin supporters and a few thousand more Ron Paul supporters, Palin supporters organized by Dick Army and all they're doing is reminding people how stupid and ignorant and intolerant that bunch really is. Keep your tea baggers coming, those images of these retards will be engraved in the minds of most Americans as the faces of the GOP, and once again wil be rejected.
they are seditious and the snail mail seditious literature that Campaign for Liberty is sending should be denounced by Ron Paul if he in fact believes in the Constitution...no wonder he stayed a Republican...he is a hypocrite like the rest
I mean, there's what, like 70+ percent for healthcare reform? obviously something has to happen. Normally I'm not for partisanship, but fuck it, roll over the Republicans, they don't have shit to offer anyways.
Wisdom is when you wake up about:(both partys SUCK)5% Tobin Tax on Wall Street Bankers on speculative Stock trades such as oil & energy and 10% tax on Derivatives Trades,.Money would go to the people not Jay Rockefeller = United Nations ,IMF or wars.But to the people that bailed you out with our Grandchildren s Future earningsI wonder if the people understood that a simple 2% tax on US traded derivatives could replace, dollar for dollar, the entire US income tax contribution. .
See, you're dipping into other conversations, I said I was for healthcare reform, nothing more. I'm more of a Independent than a Democrat, when it comes down to it. But let's focus on this one issue right now.
While I do wish Obama would say screw the right, the truth is that our president shouldn't have to "fight" like that. We're the ones who have to fight. We're the ones who have to show our support.
So, show up at the ballot box in 2010 and vote out these republicans and conservatives. Vote out these blue dog "democrats" as well. Vote in some real Democrats. Change ain't gon come if we don't replace em all!! Let's show the world that the US is a progressive nation by supporting Obama even more!
This is getting entertaining... I like it when one half of the idiots (Dems) get pissed off at the other half (Republicans)... The most fun is that all of the morons think you have to be one or the other
i'm thrilled that you're entertained, but why do you think anyone should be angry with independents or libertarians or green party people when they haven't any power? and how would you know what party we're affiliated with? who's the moron now?
clearly I wasn't talking about independents, libertarians, or green party folks. I know that the republicans are trying to hijack these protests... my point is referring to the reactions on mainstream media where they refuse to acknowledge any third party folks who actually think for themselves. Of course, name calling doesn't exactly demonstrate your genius so you might try another strategy.
In all seriousness, I bet one of your Obama supporting buddies signed you up for the newsletter the same as my McCain supporting buddies signed me up for Conservative Action Alerts.
I'm a huge Josh Marshall fan, and by extension, TPM media, but hyperbole is hyperbole wherever it occurs.
THIS you consider "harsh words"? No wonder progressives are losing... they keep recalibrating the spectrum of mainstream, civil, harsh etc.
THIS WAS TAME as can be. Here I thought maybe there would be a real slapdown. Please TPM, at least have someone copy-edit your headlines. Level-1 video editors are not the best judges.
The maps illustrating (a) the reality of content in proposed public policies & their proponents & thwarters in Congress -- vs -- (b) the perceptions held by Dumbass Nation -- would look akin to trying to overlay the continent of Africa onto that of Europe ... just complete nonsensical, OBVIOUS non-correspondence. The color bar-charts & venn diagrams drawn by retard-Teabaggers would be the worst. But absolutely, the maps drawn by DLCers would be equally unrecognizable by a life cartographer.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
so,if these fucks say"to hell with the people" and ram their national health care through can it be undone in 2 years when their all thrown out of office?
i got something to ram down your throat and it isnt national health care.
since you haven't figured it out yet there is no national health care coming to the united states. nobody ever even suggested it. you should probably learn what big words like "public option" mean before you prove you are stupid beyond any doubt. you are a talking point gas bag in need of plugging. both ends.
only in the USA can you celebrate the freedom to be as stupid as you want to be. get your crazy pants on.
Republicans couldn't undo medicare and the same thing will happen with this bill, they oppose it now but once it passes and people start seeing the benefits it will become a political sin to try to undo the new healthcare system. Healthcare reform is a reality, you can bet on it.
I don't think it's the so-called 'elitists' fault... It's the PEOPLE's fault for being uneducated, under-informed, and sheltered in their small town communities. The world it is a-changing and these back wood, backward ogres need to stfu and let the grownups develop a prosperous future since they obviously have no clue.
I'm working on it. Doing something is better than doing nothing in virtually all cases, this one included. I'm tired of the right wing dogmas that keep holding us back. If we don't adapt we will fail. Not that this particular legislation is the best possible move, but after initial disruption, it should improve the overall system for the benefit of consumers. But you're probably still hung up on death panels?
Where are you getting your info from? Most doctors are actually in favor of heathcare reform with a public option, and this is just a recent study on individual physicians, also the AMA is backing Obama, so you got individual doctors and doctors as an institution supporting healthcare reform with a public option. Even conservative pollster Rasmussen is showing that more people support healthcare reform than those who oppose it.
But not neccessarily Obama's plan. Nobody denies that America needs health care reform but that doesn't mean we want the only plan they've come up with so far.
More like the tyranny of the extremely vocal, well financed, corporate approved minority who receive undo attention from corporately controlled media.
I have to say.. the opinionated news of our day is not to tell you whats going on, its to give you what to "think" about whats going on. If this is the only source [most] people get their "news".. one thing you can be sure about is that they walked away with about 2% of what is actually going on but a 70% opinion about it. Add "expert" commentary opinion raises this %. Add to the fact most won't think about it further raises this %. Its called "CULTURE CREATION" look it up.
Of course they don't actually represent the majority of Americans. The majority of Americans don't watch Glenn Pecker and are actually reasonable and intelligent citizens.
This has been flagged as spam show

I am so sick of the idiots out there trying to claim that these are only racist conservative extremists who are protesting. That couldn't be FURTHER from the truth. First of all, these are people from all backgrounds and views who want America as it was intended...free with limited government. Second, it is NOT about race. That's just ad hominem attacks against people who do not agree with this administration's policies. To disagree with someone's politics does NOT make a person racist.
JanineC4 2 years ago
I'm really getting tired of libertarian "constitutionalists" who think that they profess so much knowledge of American government and history and then make statements like "America ... free with limited government" First of all, "free" is a subjective term. Most people in this country would say we are free, even with healthcare reform. That's good enough for me given the circumstances. Secondly, the founding fathers had just as many disagreements about the role of government then as we do now.

I somewhat agree with you. I think Fox News and other right-wing media groups are jumping the gun a little, "You didn't like our Pres., we don't like yours". However, during his campaign he did promise alot of things that are difficult to deliver. I think he's realizing that right now. I think, in this day and age, it is "normal" for any politician to spend, spend, spend. If anyone wants to cut programs, they become unpopular. Arnold for example.
