T: Is for outrage over Taxes

On June 30th Times Square has a Tea Party of sorts. The anti-Obama pep rally occupied part of the street and part of the sidewalk and stretched from the subway entrance to the door of Ruby Tuesday's. There were between a thousand and to2.5 million depending on who you talk to. Signs and t-shirts were anti-Obama ("Don't Blame Me I Voted for the Old White Guy," stated "Taxed Enough Already." Speakers expressed concern for their allegedly endangered freedoms, but were most exercised by the prospect of giving up any more of their money. "Reckless spending, unread legislative bills, and runaway government -- I'm sick of it," said Organizer Kellen Giuda. Fox was there... where is the rest of the media? Millions of people across the country are protesting against their government and they're refusing to put it on TV. It's time to act and TeaParty365 is ready to lead," said Guida. David Webb, said they were there to "send a message to our leaders, doesn't matter what party they're in... you represent us, we elect you, and we demand accountability." He also lavishly praised the NYPD for their support, bravery, etcetera. The first speaker was rightwing columnist Deroy Murdock (one thing you have to say about Obama -- he's been a one-man affirmative action program for black conservative speakers). Murdock set the non-partisan tone when he announced that he had been in the "free-market conservative movement" since volunteering in 1979 to work for Ronald Reagan. Murdock said legislators were acting like "teenagers with mommy and daddy's credit card," of which he was "sick and bloody tired. "Shame on George W. Bush, and shame on his architect, the overexposed Karl Rove." Obama, and the American taxpayer," Murdock concluded, "is exhausted and downright anemic." To my astonishment, GM is owned by the government, health care will have computers decidingt whether in fact that hip replacement you need will be a tin item or a titanium item, based on age and what some bureaucrat thinks is important. Lawn Guyland a "stay-at-home mom" is concerned that the health insurance her husband, who "works hard every day," gets from his job, will be "taxed" under the Obama Socialist Health Care Plan. Maybe someday we will be listened to but only if we insist and that is a F.A.C.T.
