Grass roots conservatives with the so-called Tea Party movement are headed to Washington on a national bus tour. The movement was inspired by anti-tax protests of the past, especially the Boston Tea Party. In 1773, American colonists threw tea into Boston Harbor to protest taxes imposed by Britain. Thousands of Tea Party supporters launched their current tour with rallies in Nevada and Arizona. VOA National correspondent Jim Malone has more on what they want and what their impact might be in U.S. midterm elections this November.
Tea Party 2020- Hands off my Obama Care

Have a look at the moronic audience. A combined IQ of a boiled egg. I saw one with a T-Shirt slogan "Impeach Obama". These organisations appeal to the lowest common denominator, the uneducated and the ignorant. 7000 out of a population of 307,006,550. Do the maths, one born every minute and two die every year - all attended this rally.

Grass roots my butt. Corporate sponsors all the way, Russo March, King entertainment, FreedomWorks and others have all made a bundle off these screwballs.
And, only about 7000 showed up in Washington....fools.
And, the Democrat won the seat over the wingnut Republican in the Florida election Tuesday......
