Interesting stuff.
Among the slightly more than 200 people in attendance, there was only one 'Obama is a commie!' sign and I was the only Black (although that could've been true at the grocery store, too).
There was a broad cross-section of folks there, mainly retirees, and the more vocal individuals tended to be the least educated. A few who grabbed the mic referenced Palin, but didn't go overboard with it. There were a couple of attacks on Mexican immigrants and 'drug cartels' which led to them calling out the Republican leadership as well as the Dems.
One WWII vet talked at length about bringing manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. Another woman (one of this group's organizers) said that American wages are 'going to come down to 80 cents/hour, like China' if we don't repeal NAFTA. Some of her comments made it clear she wanted to usher in a new era of protectionism.
Although much of the language in today's little speeches was intended solely to whip people into a frenzy, some solid points were made and I was left with the impression that many in the crowd just want less waste and more accountability at all levels of government, starting in our city.
All-in-all, I'm glad I went. Yes, many of them are a little nutty, but I believe they are open to becoming at least somewhat educated about the real issues and the way things work.

Did you engage with any of them about your fetish for musclebound chemically enhanced 'women'?

Interesting trip report. Why the fuck were you the only black guy there? How many people total? Please tell me these people were not rabid Palin fans??? And also these things are pointless. The powers that be will continue destroying this once great nation, selling it off as they go to feed their appetite. They will alllow us to do whatever we want, until we become any kind of real threat and then they will arrest us and fabricate whatever news story they want. Things WILL NOT change. Get over it. I have. I want to move, but there is no place to move to :(

Seems like they made some good points, i cant think of anything worse for our country than millions of non assimilating illegal immigrants who drive down wages for american citizens who otherwise did not have the ability to secure a white collar job. construction used to provide decent wages and supported many families for the better part of last century but those days are long gone. nafta is a complete and utter disaster for both the united states and mexico and it is hard to see america keeping its super power status without a strong manufacturing base. people have a right to be concerned and the fact that the media likes to sensationalize these people as racist because of the occasional nut is wrong

what is a "black person"?????
bench
-
the party, for the most part, and well informed people tired of govt spending.
Sure, you have some who are racist, rude, or complete palin worshippers. They get most of the attention. Most of them are level headed, and their platform (less warfare and less welfare!) seems to make sense.
-
The Tea Party does not represent true Liberty and freedom. The thing that will keep them from being any kind of threat is the fact nobody knows what their stance is. They throw out these vague statements like they don't want big Govt, we want personal freedom, etc, well no shit.. but where is the line. Do they favor ending the drug war for instance? Do they oppose same sex marriage? Anyone who likes the idea of a tea party needs to become Libertarian if you REALLY want personal liberty and small government. Selective liberty is only good for those who makes the rules based on a personal moral compass.

It turns my stomach that Palin has basically taken over this group.
It's such a joke, there will be no revolution, just a bunch of sheep bitching because the economy is bad. None of these goons gave a shit about big government when the DOW was 14,000 and their houses where doubling in value...
-
The Teabaggers make me laugh. They are no different than the Green Party backing Ralph Nader the year which resulted in Gore losing out votes in the narrowly fought Bush/Gore prez election. Allowing a red leather clad Sarah Palin to function as a key note speaker at their "big" events only adds to the hilarity.

These old buffoons don't understand that is the beauty of their lovely capitalism. Perhaps instead of complaining about jobs being outsourced and American wages going down, they should be out there opening small businesses and fighting for tax breaks since that seems to be the repubs answer to everything...oh brother ::)
These morons are supporting the very people that will not support their cause...really smart

there's an agenda for civil unrest behind the Tea Prty movement ...Palin is a patsy for a group

These sound like the Ron Paul supporters, mainly focusing of fiscal conservatism. Funny how very few, if any, of these people would actually support Ron Paul and instead support Palin, mainly because Paul does not support the war (for financial and political reasons).

From what I gathered from your trip, most are a bunch of ignorant Americans...
The first in bold is generally true.
The second in bold, will not happen, how many idiots do you can exist on .80 cents an hour, especially when the price of goods is as high as a giraffe's ass?
The scond in bold, will probably not happen. People (Americans) tend to believe what they believe, especially if it conforms with their fears, prejudices, xenophobias...plus there are a lot of people who play on the ignorant...Also, many are too lazy to do research on thier own to find the answers, they rely on the biased (whether left or right) news shows (think about, if most Americans are too lazy to work out or try to lose weight, why do you think they would actively try and educate themselves are the meat and potato issues?)

American Classic!!

There are people who say they want what Ron Paul stands for (not knowing he is the best guy), yet because the Republican leadership has done such a good job of marginalizing him, *he* is labeled as a 'kook' by many ignorant pretend conservatives.

Yes, you had a number of kool-aid drinkers there who aren't going to change, no matter what, but just based on what I observed in this small sample size, the majority were open to working to find viable solutions and wanting to understand the issues better in order to move toward those goals. Although there was plenty of talk about national politics, the majority of the time was spent talking about state and local government, where we have MAJOR, in-your-face problems that we have to deal with on a daily basis.
That Palin has co-opted the Tea Party for her own ends is a problem, but there are plenty of 'Patriots' who will figure that out on their own and divorce themselves from her over time.
In closing, although I did not join yesterday's 24-person march, I will stand with the Patriots in fighting City Hall.

I'm surprised Tre wasn't kidnapped by unionist thugs and held for ransom. It's nice to know that some people aren't completely brainwashed and are beyond mindlessly supporting a presidents policies just because they share the same skin pigmentation.

Where were these fucks when Bush was riding this country into the fucking ground with $5 per gallon oil, massive debts from war, allowing banks to rape this fucking country and giving away $700 billion that went unaccounted for, yet they like to bitch about the second $700 billion that obama gave out that a lot of banks have already paid back.
These idiots should spend less time complaining and stop shopping at Walmart and Target if they want to see higher wages here in the USA and more jobs. They are the main supporters of what the problem is of this country.

funny, they didnt have too much of a problem with Bush spending.
i guess to these people, spending taxpayer money and american lives in middle eastern quagmires is A-OK, but spending money to try to help actual americans makes them AAANNNGGGRRRYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!
-
You do realize that as much as Bush spent, Obama has now more than doubled the deficit Bush created after being in office for 14 months?
You also realize that those middle eastern quagmires have continued on Obama's watch and that he just ok'd a troop increase to Afghanistan?
Finally, you do realize that those "actual americans" as you call them largely consist of destitute leeches that don't pay taxes and are already being "helped" with medicare+medicaid, welfare and 10000 other governmental entitlements?
When Obama and his cronies push to make 20 million illegal aliens citizens via amnesty, should everyone just bite their lip also? Afterall, I guess nobody should complain about helping "actual Americans".

prolly because bush isn't black. I think a lot of these tea partiers are the most racist fucks who can't stand the idea of a black man telling them what to do.

This isn't about black; it's about GREEN, namely the green being siphoned from the people's wallets, by Obama's tax-and-spend frenzy.
These tea party folks come from all walks of life. It's the left that keeps whining about any criticism about Obama being because of race (a factor as to why he was picked to be the Dems' nominee).

The post you just made sounds an awfully lot like the thought patterns you espouse the Tea Party people to have.

Puhleez. Were you happy paying for $5 a gallon gas when bush was in office. or do you take the bus? How about how Bush allowed the economy to be crippled and then handed over the country in a huge mess to Obama to clean up. man what is wrong with american's today. Short memories are ruining this country.

Oh come on man. A lot of these senators in the bible belt came from families that owned slaves, now they are being told what to do by a black man. You have no idea how hard it is for these guys to admit. Honestly, 10 years ago did you think we had better odds of having a black man, a woman or a gay as President which would it be? The idea of a black man in office was not even close to being a reality. Now it is and a lot of these folks can't stand it.

Dear Patriots,
Yesterday we met in the park on a warm spring day to discuss our country's future.
I thank you for taking time out of your busy day to stand, waving flags and carrying posters with personal messages. Your signs made me smile because they were so down right clever and humorous and others just plain truthful.
We have a busy six months ahead of us. I personally feel this must be the Progressives' Waterloo. If not, we may lose momentum and our hopes and dreams for our children and grandchildren will be lost forever.
Pray for our country and the brave warriors, both on the battlefield and in the streets fighting for Liberty and Freedom.
Again Thank you.
Claire

If there was a plan instead of "raw anger and emotion", maybe it would make sense. People are either part of the problem, or part of the soulution. This is "rhetoric", which amounts to "I am angry, but I have no solution". "We hate "This Person", blah blah blah.... This splinter party is like the "Bull Moose Party", it just puts fuel, on a fire, but does not extinguish it!!! I prefer coffee!!! :-X

Tre-nugga, these "Patriots" are the same former weed-smokin, free love having, hate the establishment, make love not war, former hippie, me-me-me of the 80s, divorce is the only way out, ill mannered-spoiled brat having, give their children everything except attention and discipline, people. Now all of a sudden they are concern about their country after they enjoyed all the benefits of their irresponsibilities, they drop the ball. And now are pissed, well they have only themselves to be blames...Patriots my eye. Where were these people when shit started to go down hill? I'll tell you where, they were helping to go downhill, by either contributing to it, or saying nothing. America is a reactive country, not a proactive or preventative country...always waiting until things by their own hands get out or wack and then want to do something...

I call bs. Name one Proactive country. Ok. Can you name one Preventative country?
-
I would support this movement if Palin had nothing to do with it. There are several Texas Senators who are wonderful people who are taking part in this group but every time i hear Palin squawk in her awful voice i simply cannot listen anymore. She is part of what is wrong with this entire Nation IMO.

You call bs, but don't give reasons for that. So, I will not name Proactive counties, but I will say this. American culture has been built upon in the last 30 plus yrs letting things get out of hand, like our health situations, our economy, immigration, etc go unchecked until there are serious issues that arise from it. Notice how apparently 50% of out population is fat? And how heart disease is a leading cause of death, but still the same fatasses go to MCDonalds and order the same fattening things, yet blame the fastfood place? And now, obesity is a disease, because people lack the will power to stop sucking up food and work out?
Notice how we used to buy almost everything on credit, and kept thinking it was okay, until that whit went unchecked? Notice how, time and fucking time again, we have relied on oil from oil barons from the middle east and other hostile countries, who care not about us, but the money from the US and Oil Corp, now all of a sudden a big push foe hybrids and electric cars to promote Green tech---but really to stop relying of
foreign oil. Thus, echoing the "safety issues" with cars from the 70s and 80s, There were cars back in the 70s that had airbags, but Nixon nixed that, saying it wad too costly for the auto manufacturers---thinking about, he set back auto safety tech, 20-30 yrs...and then when shit hits the fan, new stuff.

I was kidding. I have no idea how you got here from what I said. But what the hell is a Proactive country. You don't have to name one, but please explain what that is.

A proactive country is not a country that sits back and let's shit get all out of hand and then starts going off on a anger tangent...especially a country which prides itself on being educated and giving the piss to anybody who tries to fuck with freedom and rights...A proactive country sees what is down the road and rakes actions and steps to prevent it. A proactive country has citizens that try to preserve something for it's future citizens, not suck everything up, and then when it's gone cry like a baby that has been taken off it's mother's titty.
The baby boom generation has led his country down a perverse rabbit hole, yet they themselves forgot to realize that they sold their asses to the Mad Hatter

ok

So can ANYONE list a proactive country? Surely there are dozens of them (we are aware that America is not one).

Initially, the Tea Party movement was being guided by solid principles of fiscal conservatism, but at some point, it appears to have been derailed by far-right zealots who, because they don't work, have the time to devote to rabble-rousing.

Check this out .....Beck is brainwashing people on a daily basis, does his rise coincide with the rise of the TEa Party...hhhhmmmm. Same guy that said the President has a deep seated hatred for white people. Yeah ... ::) it's not about racism.
http://www.bobcesca.com/blog-archives/2010/04/glenn_beck_scam.html (http://www.bobcesca.com/blog-archives/2010/04/glenn_beck_scam.html)
"Here’s what I’m thinking is going on: The woman has been trained by right wing media to be so paranoid that she can’t emotionally handle the fact that her refund check was bigger because of the Obama tax cuts, especially since that caused her to feel a pang of gratitude towards Obama, who she know she’s supposed to hate. And she wants to disbelieve her own eyes, but I’m guessing that her obsession with getting a treadmill comes straight from a doctor telling her that’s what she needs to do or else she may be facing even more serious health problems---she mentions that she’s on oxygen, and I think she’s really torn. And she could really use that money. And Beck basically demands that she choose loyalty to right wing media and to paranoid hatred of Obama over her own health and well-being."

well lets hope they run Condi Rice instead of palin and the repbs will be a shoe in

its so funny when people confuse politics and economics.
everybody is entitled to their opinions about the issues...
politics is mostly a subjective matter. justice is necessary, freedom a right. beyond that, and even within defining the scope of those two claims, the matter is highly subjective. and thus open for debate.
as for economics, its a science of interaction among labourers, businessmen, corporations, and government regulation of the sector.
economics isnt something you can theorize on without experience and expect accurate results. you could look at a tree and figure out the best way to fertilize, grow, plant, sustain, and get more of them. only with study can it be true.
but yet economics is controlled by politics, people have a right to vote, and thus everyone thinks their opinion matters in economics.
my main point is that this tea party who calls for more jobs, better economy, less taxes...ect. great. but by what pathway? surely none of these people have any idea... all they are is loudmouthed and arrogant
besides the main issue: third party in america ..... which makes them totally inconsequential

LOL this pretty much sums up these backwards assholes...if the conservatives had it there way nothing would have EVER changed...we would still be living in little amish style colonial communities tilling the fields all day and reading the bible by candlelight...women would still be second class and FULLY clothed at all times, and there would be absolutely no progress in science (which they dont believe in ::) or medicine
-
Benny, nice tasteless insult...because Tre believes in fiscal responsibility and more fiscal conservative policies, he is an uncle tom? Is that what you are implying? F.U. Keep falling in line with liberals who support giving just enough handouts to poor minorities to keep them voting democrat but not supporting the ideals and values that would help change maladaptive patterns in many poor families.
I agree with the main principles of the tea party, especially after both Bush & Obama with all the irresponsible spending and a decade of planned deficits. There are some weirdos in the fringe, just as in any movement. I am more of a Ron Paul guy, evven with RP, I don't agree with everything he says. Nonetheless, better than what Obama is doing creating huge government. Wait till cap & trade comes and taxes go up on everyone. Heard some democrats have proposed an additional 15cent tax on gas which will be brought to the floor for debate. Tax & Spend to support bigger government...no thanks.
