Tea Party 7/17/09 Long Island, NY- Silent No More!

Our NY Senators and Representatives have refused to listen to the people. Visits were made to the offices of Schumer, Gillibrand, Israel and Bishop in one day on 7/17/09. We were not allowed to go into their offices or make any statements. Only a few people were allowed to go inside. We delivered petitions and presented them with Declarations. An impressive crowd of patriots showed up to express their anger and lack of trust of our elitist government. Their staff shooed us away like a swarm of flies. Once again Schumer, Gillibrand, Israel and Bishop have failed to listen to us. They see nothing wrong of voting on bills without reading them! The general protest was against the oppressive Health Care & Cap & Trade.

Lassaleman- Social Security has been a Ponzi scheme along with Medicare and Medicaid. Programs such as these turn people into Robots on the LEFT. We're forced by Gov't to pay into SS without any option. Where does it say in the Constitution that Gov't must supply healthcare? The LEFT want to CONTROL and turn this country into a "Nanny State."

These programs don't work and are bankrupting this country. Tell me one that has been successful!!!!!

Comments made by alxthgr8356 are being posted on Tea Party videos without having viewed them. This individual has been making unrelated statements without addressing actual issues in the videos. His bizarre statements sound like a disgruntled "plant" trying to shut down political discourse. We are only expressing our First Amendment Rights and protect it from obscurity.

It is truly a grassroots phenomenon. People from all party affiliations are coming out of the shadows to express their discontent with the oppressive government in Washington DC.

What a moron, the guy with his bluetooth. His first panel was all about financial issues, and the back states that it's not about money, it's about trust. Can anyone figure out wtf they want? To me they just look like irrational loudmouth demolishers who don't even know what they are talking about.

@Tomuchcheese7244 You need to learn proper grammar and spelling. Even with youtube's spellcheck you managed to get it all wrong. Do you even know what Communism is? Do you know the difference between Socialism and Communism? If you did you'd know that we are a Mixed Economy which already is partly based on Socialism and has been for decades. You're make\ing all Tea-Baggers look bad!

And I must add that most of those folk "protesting" most likely do not make 250k a year.. people that do so HAVE a brain.. I highly doubt they make past 34k if they actually read anything they would find their taxes to be cheaper under Obama's plan..

[Teromi]

I must admit the irony of a senior citizen holding a sign that says "say no to socialized medicine" is quite tremendous..

Get and education redneck creationists no one is out to get your manufacturing jobs.. your insurance would be cheaper with the proposed bill.. ignorance is bliss...

HAHAHA. Look at all the elderly people protesting "socialism".  All this and the elderly protesters are on MEDICARE.
