11/6: Tea Partiers Descend on Capitol Hill

The Tea Party holds no seat in Congress, but at least 10,000 of the party’s members descended on Capitol Hill Thursday to rally against a Democratic-written health care overhaul.

A plan first hatched and heralded on FOX by iconic conservative Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) grew over the weekend as she e-mailed with a handful of colleagues. By the time activists started arriving at the foot of the Capitol around 8:30 a.m., it was clear no Republican leader could stay away.

    The depth of arrogance is unbelievable. Pelosi just doesn’t get it. She thinks there is NO LIMIT to the Federal powers. See: http://www.speaker.gov/newsroom/factcheck?id=0107
    Only an “education” from We the People will bring about true change.

    Where are the reports of the 78-year-old priest and 4 prolifers who were arrested at the capitol and still in jail?

    Dear Friends of the Republic and those who hold the Constitution dear, 10,000 people is not enough. At the 9/12 rally, 2-3 million was not enough. The polticians in Washington D.C. do not listen to the people, they don’t think there are very many. So, I am convinced it will take 5 million or more to show up and stay until they stop.

    Glenn Beck was right, Washington D.C. needs to be quarantined until the corruption is removed.
