Why no "tea" Parties under Bush?

i see, i misread you, i thought you meant this was not a good way to get things done....

imo, a combination of both would be more effective. i don't quite remember, but how did we stop the amnesty thing? did people write letters only? i don't remember protests....

There were some, but they were small and ineffective, what was effective was the calls. They actually shut down the switch station.
 
Then maybe you can explain why there were so many Democrats attending?

Obvously you had no problem with his spending like a drunken sailor, you re-elected him.

This tea party thing is all just a partisan move and nothing more.

They were "spies" who secretly love Obama and taxes and were only there to take pictures for the Huffpost...

Now, you may be unaware of this, but the only thing Obama has done on the taxes front to date is to cut taxes. That's why this shit is so hilarious.

Again (you have to repeat things often for Democrats because they all apparently have Obamalzheimer's disease). You may not be aware but the protests were not just about taxes, the vast majority of the signs I saw were about the generational mortgage and the massive growth of the government.

I guess it depends who you ask. You say one thing. Lots of other people are saying lots of other things. I suppose that's another reason why I find them so hilarious, I have no fucking idea what they are all about.

But seriously, the idea that these tea parties planned for April 15 are not about taxes is pretty hilarious.

That would make sense since they're not about taxes.

They are, do you know what generational mortgage means? Do you understand the full implication of it, including the fact that the current level of taxation can't even pay for the current level of goodies, even without the additions proposed by "Fearless Leader"?

Ok Damo, your tack. Why were no "generational mortgage" parties held while Bush was making the debt hit the stratosphere?

I've already told you that I think that the final push is partisan, they are sick and tired of even their own party not listening, they helped ensure by not voting that they would lose office and now they seek to limit damage. However, the T.E.A. Parties are about more than just that.

Again (as I said more Obamalzheimer's disease), it is false to assume that absolutely no protests happened with Bush in office from these same people and even gave examples of them.
