On 9.12.2009, we went to Washington DC to document the Tea Party protests against, well, a lot of things, including health insurance reform, the IRS, abortion, global warming, and our "socialist/communist/fascist/Nazi/Muslim " president, Barack Obama. Some of them called for a return to McCarthyism, while others called for Glenn Beck to run for office--indeed, it seemed the only thing that everyone agreed on was Fox News.
This NEW LEFT MEDIA film was produced and edited by Chase Whiteside (interviewer) and Erick Stoll (camera operator).
A NOTE ON CZARS: Some users have pointed out that White House "Czars" existed long before Ronald Reagan. As it turns out, Donald Nelson, appointed under FDR as a "Wartime Production Czar", was the first. The Republican Gov. of Colorado, John A. Love, was later appointed under Nixon as an "Energy Czar". We appreciate this correction, though such an oversight does not dilute our point. The current outcry against Czars is merely alarmist propaganda perpetuated by Glenn Beck and the rest of the right-wing media.
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE: You can make a difference in the health care debate without leaving your bedroom. So stop typing that narcissistic Facebook status, pause your Mafia Wars game, and actually do something in reality to advance the cause you support on Facebook by calling your representative. This is so easy. Many people are timid about making phone calls, but a phone call to your representative now could save you a series of phone calls to an uncooperative insurance company in the future. Too lazy to look up your representative's number? This website makes it even easier--it will find the number, call it for you, and then call your cell phone to connect you. Tell your representative's office that you support comprehensive health care reform, and urge them to support the public option. http://tools.advomatic.com/8/hcn
"We can do this. At this point, all that stands in the way of universal health care in America are the greed of the medical-industrial complex, the lies of the right-wing propaganda machine, and the gullibility of voters who believe those lies." - Paul Krugman, The Swiss Menace http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/17/opi...

donnymac, are you related to king george? because he said something very similar about the patriots in 1775. he was wrong and you will be to. god bless america.
hiphopjackass, based on what you write it is obvious you are a liberal marxist. i got involved when democrats reid and pelosi were calling senior citizens nazis and thugs for exercising thier right to protest at town hall meetings. are you that fucking stupid not to believe those interviews were edited and picked from 1.5 million people. these patriots are exercising thier 1st amendment rights to protest if you do not like it - fuck you
and every single yokel interviewed has the correct moral direction, regardless of if they can articulate. Homer's buddy, drunk Barney, constitute the entire democrat and republican parties. Respond if you'd like me to drive you to the school of politics and economics.
people just don't understand the value of our freedom, if obama and the high archy suceed, i can promise your way of life will drastically change for the worst, and if u don't think government effects you, just wait
