1/29: N.H. Tea Party Coalition plans ’simultaneous protests’ for 30 Tea Party groups
Posted by Editor on January 30, 2010 · 30 Comments
Plans to protest Sunday at the homes of New Hampshire’s three Democratic members of Congress caught the attention of the Capitol Police in Washington but local police say they’re not expecting any trouble.
The N.H. Tea Party Coalition, which consists of about 30 activist groups, is planning “simultaneous protests” at the Madbury home of Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, the Rochester home of Rep. Carol Shea-Porter, and the Concord home of Rep. Paul Hodes, all in an effort to “send a direct message,” according to an e-mail signed by a Milford organizer.
JCS believes because Bush threw away billions of the Tax Payers money that some how justifies Obama and Democrats throwing away trillions. I would laugh but such ignorance is no longer funny. Most folks like the 9/12ers and tea party folks see little difference between the two political parties. Both are mad with power. The only difference I see is one wants to turn America Communist over night and know exactly what they’re doing. The other is headed in the same direction but slower. I’m not sure if the Republicans aware of what they’re doing. The only reason I vote for Republicans… it gives the people more time to wake up and the people are waking up. I do not vote for anyone because I want them to be my ruler. JCS that is exactly what you want… a king to rule over you. Doesn’t matter if you know it or not…that’s what your doing. JCS I think you would follow anyone that promised you the lie of free healthcare. Your very venal. Conservatives know it is a lie. It’s a very bad way to start with a Conservative by lying right at the start. How could Obama think anything but the people that support him are fools. He told lie after lie… deceived and deceived and was still elected to office. A man as smart as Obama could come to no other conclusion then The People are very stupid. He knows it for a fact.
Beef, it’s presumption to tell me what I believe, what I want etc. You sound like Limbaugh talking about what Obama “really thinks.” I dislike talking like this, but I’ve worked 25 years for a company that’s never laid a person off, I’ve got terrific health insurance, a very nice 401K, job security, and am actually a way, way above the median national income. Don’t you get it? I’m not asking for favors from the government, I’m trying to make this country better for “We the People”. I’m doing pretty dang well because I was lucky enough to have parents who could afford a college education and get some good breaks.
Good for you for acknowledging Bush tried to bail out the economy as well as Obama. Was that good? I don’t know for sure, but I do believe that if the banks failed in the country we’d have had a second Great Depression. Do you have money in a bank? What if you’d lost your life savings and your retirement wherever that is. You might wish the government had done more.
Everybody is lying to you, everybody wants the government to take care of them, it’s “communism”, “I’m for freedom”, “we’re violating the constitution” – give it a rest Beef. You listen too much to AM radio.
Here we go again. Obama needs another 3.8 trillion (will be announced tomorrow). Is that the magic number his handlers agree is needed to bring this country to its financial knees. I think the conservatives in this country are getting more that a little tired of being “water boarded” by this socialist cabal.

BTW- the Obama worshipers will be a little hard pressed to explain the latest IG TARP (AKA WALL STREET/DEMOCRATIC PARTY SUPPORTER PAYOFF PACKAGE) report.
I sense that the bee hive is getting agitated. This will doubtless get very ugly. Even the ever narcissistic Mao-bama must see the storm clouds gathering.
Handlers, water boarding, country to it’s knees, obama worshipers, Mao. If you have a legitimate point to make, why do you feel the need to use that kind of language to bolster yourself? Sounds like you’re the bee that is getting agitated.
It takes several attempts to log in so I will take advantage of the opportunity to say that this president will soon need to acknowledge that the vast and overwhelming majority of Americans do not share his Marxist views world views. His presidency is absolutely doomed. It was preciptated by the 787 billion theft AKA “stimulous” he signed into law to avert an “imminent disaster” that was used to pay off his supporters and handlers and has been compounded by his refusal to face reality. This is not something that the libs (hi jcs) can blame on Bush either. He is a link showing the messiah signed the executive order.

Understand now. The tea party movement will save this country while the libtards are busy smoking their bongs. applying for “grants” and “teabagging” (yes the morally bankrupt democrats had to explain this one to those of us with normal values) each other.
March 2008: Bush stimulus $29 billion for Bear Stearns/JP Morgan Chase deal
May 2008: Bush stimulus $178 billion in tax rebate checks
July 2008: Bush stimulus $300 billion for distressed homeowners
July 2008: Bush stimulus $200 billion for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
September 2008: Bush stimulus $50 billion to guarantee money market funds
September 2008: Bush stimulus $25 billion to Big 3 automakers
September-November 2008: Bush stimulus $150 billion to AIG
October 2008: Bush stimulus $700 billion to banks (TARP)
Sonny, I hope you can understand that nearly everyone on this blog realizes that your troll posts are nothing more than an attempt annoy and to show that “the one” is the answer to our problems. You need to face the “fact” that it will be impossible to convince a normal, moral and conservative country that Obama intends to do anything other than what he is doing now – which a blind man can see is paying off his supporters by bankrupting the country.
You are entitled to your chemically induced opinions too but should from time to time come up for air and face the “facts”.
That’s just a list of Bush administration expenditures NM. No commentary, no politics, just facts. Do you disagree with them? If you do explain yourself.
Sonny
The spending above is part of the driver behind the Tea Party movement… we do feel some betrayal. But do keep in mind that only Congress has the power to tax and spend… not the President. Let me think… what party controlled both houses during this time? Hmmmm….
You’re not suggesting that Republicans didn’t support, and Bush sign this legislation. Frankly, I’m not sure what to think about it all. But I was addressing the astonishing amnesia some people have.
NM, you’re entitled to your own opinions, but you’re not entitled to your own facts.
You are not entitled to your facts, but you are entitled to make your words mean what you want them to mean.
The above facts were not, nor were they intended to be a stimulus.
If you claim that, then a word means “exactly what you want it to mean, nothing more andnothing less.”
I think Alice will be disconcerted.
Nice quote. I agree.
The administration pumped money into the economy. That’s what a stimulus is even if the word “stimulus” isn’t in the acronym. Maybe you weren’t reading or watching the news at that time?

NM, you’re posts are terrific. You provoke me and make me try to do research and learn more about the issues in question with the purpose of slamming you. Not a bad thing in my opinion on either side.
Sonny (aka jcs)
Hi to you NM. Let’s see, you’ve accused the President for the 100th time of being a Marxist (please NM, learn something about political philosophy). You’ve said the stimulus package was a corrupted payoff to political supporters, and you’ve said that democrats are morally bankrupt (haven’t there been a few Republicans caught cheating on their wives lately?). And you’ve said liberal are using drugs and having abnormal values.
NM, you are a perfect representation of the Tea Party movement IMO. You have insults but nothing constructive to offer except “get back to the Constitution” which is meaningless if that’s all you have to offer.
What are your proposals? Cut taxes for the rich? Allow people to buy insurance across state lines? Eliminate Social Security? We know you think Democrats are evil, fine, but what are you FOR?
Score: 140 Republicans, zero, President Obama 1. Why did fair and balanced FOX stop live coverage of this half way through to give voice to the paid opposition? Easy, their 140 legislators couldn’t out-think a single Marxist, Stalinist, Communist POTUS. One thing you can be sure of, the Republicans won’t ever again face off again the President on public television. That a PR disaster, because they are shown for who they are.
That depends on how you keep score.
It all depends on how you keep score.
Agreed. Watch it and decide for yourself.

Where did my comments disappear to?
It’s a weird website.
This protest was successful by the way. NH has a very wonderful independent group within their state… and the 912ers are part of it along with groups who have been around a long time.
They are not run by any outside influence which is more than we can say for SEIU, OFA, ACORN, MoveOn.org etc. There is no money involved.
Just look up who Soros runs on Discover the Networks. The Center for American Progress is funded by Soros and they run the WH and Obama’s teleprompter. He is not his own man.
And just look how much money AL GORE makes off this climate change hoax???
@jcs: you have no clue what you are talking about. Citing the BBC proves to me you have no clue… I am voting FOR my interests when I vote to remove these totalitarian progressive dictators from office. They are no less money-grubbing than the villains that YOU perceive.
If the protests you attended weren’t financed by the insurance industry and pharma, I think that’s awesome. In the case you mentioned I don’t know any different so I’ll take your word for it. But if you say Dick Armey is a lobbyist for freedom and justice, I think – I know rather – that you’re fooling yourself.
I’d encourage you to go to youtube and watch President Obama answer questions from Republicans. No Teleprompter. And he did a lot better than hold his own, which I would not say of the Republicans.
Climate change hoax. If you call it a hoax, you’re misinformed. I suggest you research the subject before you decide to get opinions from climate expert Rush Limbaugh.. The details are debatable, but among the experts, the generalities are universally considered fact by people who are trained in the field (the intellectual elite, since you read the article).
NH, seriously. Every Western Democracy in the world has universal health care of some kind. And they’re not totalitarian, communist, Marxist, Bolshevik, Trotskyite dictatorships. That’s just silly. Please.
It is totally insane to think that insurance and pharma would be calling us up and asking us to protest. I have not gotten any calls and certainly not any money.
In fact these people are on board with Obamacare so that ought to tell you why it’s WRONG.
Wrong how?

I think this article helps explain the Tea Party movement, which is bound to fail because it doesn’t support any cause but letting the rich get richer, at the expense of the people in the movement.
This country will soon be returned to its conservative roots and this is another example of the awakened sleeping giant. The people are protesting fiscal irresponsibility and the apparent disdain their “elected officials” clearly have for their concerns. They will not silently let the liberals (aka Mar-ists) destroy our great country.
The problem with liberalism is that it rewards failure (and not surprisingly gets all of us more of it). Too bad liberals cannot acknowledge that. It’s part of the illness I suppose….such a pity.
I couldn’t agree more. Most people today have been so dependent on government to come and fix there problems that they no longer no how to do things for themselves. I grew up in a time when people were indenpendent thinkers and and took care of things for themselves. It is to bad liberials can’t see that.
Yes, liberals have spent way too much time advocating civil rights and women’s rights. Blacks, other minorities and women would have done just fine without big government intervention in the form of integration and equal rights legislation. Oh well, that’s water under the bridge.
