Hundreds attend 'tea party' at Capitol

The Tea Party Express made a stop in Austin on Friday, drawing a few hundred people to the south steps of the Capitol for a rally that was one part speech-making and one part music-making, all infused with a conservative political message. The two-bus traveling show has been touring the country to spread its politics on what will be a 19-day, 38-stop journey. The Austin stop was peaceful, and,… » Full Story on Austin American Statesman

The Democrats refused to stop the loan companies in 2004 and look where we are now Blaming it all on Bush Democrats said lets go to war Blamed it all on Bush So you say because it is Obama in office that the Healthcare has to work and that we will live happily ever after with milk & honey and that he will lead us into the promise land where their will be no end You Liberals better wake up their is no milk & honey He is a Politician like the rest and not a Savior


Government keeps finding ways in spending tax payers money until their is nothing left Bureaucrats from each state know that they shouldn't But they act like children knowing dang well they are milking the system leaving people like you and me with nothing left, Don't be so naive into thinking that this wont hurt the economy Remember the stimulus was suppose to keep unemployment stable Obama even reinsured us that it would

did a search in how Obama did in each state it showed that McCain won more counties then Obama did and when you check those states you will find that where Obama won was in the counties where people of color lived it shows why most of America don't want this bill being passed

decided to go a little farther in my search I wanted to see how Reagan fared in 1980 He got 90.9% to Jimmy Carter's 9.1% of the vote Then in 1984 Reagan got 97.6 compared to Walter Mondal,s 2.4% That is what you call a land slide Just because Obama got voted in doesn't mean that America is behind this health care reform Reagan even won in Ma. That alone is something in its self. So you can call us angry and that is fine We all want healthcare, But Government is unstable in making decisions

They were having their regular Gay Day parade & gang bang! The teabaggers love to flaunt their gayness & how they love screwing America. I myself do not support either the Dems or the Repugs. If you had brains, you'd never support the too far right who are bent on destroying this country. They want to give life to their 4th Reich w/ Russia LimblewBush as their Fuhrer! Glenda BlewRush as 2nd in command.

I attended the Summer Tea Party in Charleston, SC...The news reports estimated the attendance at between 1500 and two thousand.
3 Streets were packed along with the parking area at the Customs House...attendance appeared to be more like 4-5000.
The mainstream press is in Obama's pocket and will dodge facts to help the BIG O's agenda...
The only honest media is Fox News and Fox local stations...The rest is drivel...

The liberals always inflate the number of people at their silly rallies because only 7 people show up. Now they suddenly lay claim to have mysteriously inherited COUNTING skills. Right....

A few hundred? Is that the best they can do in the Capitol of a strong conservatve State? The Tea Bag Buses held more. What a desparate losing party.

I saw the overhead shot of the crowd and 'hundreds' is the right adjective. Those who claim thousands, (some even claimed millions), need to take a look at overhead camera shots and stop their wishful thinking.
