Tea Party Washington Dc

Jim Said:

How Many People Do You Think will Show up at Washington, DC Tax Day Tea Party?

We Answered:

I'm still trying to figure out what the tax day tea parties are protesting. Only the wealthy are facing a small tax increase. They pay their lawyers and lobbyists to protest taxes instead of holding rallies. the rest of us are enjoying the lowest tax rates since the end of WWII. But then it's just like those rich fat cats to convince the apparently ignorant masses to act against their own self interest. Gotta love the rich who get the struggling middle class to go to bat for them.

Joseph Said:

What are the latest attendance numbers at the Tea Party Protests today in Washington DC? Does anybody know?

We Answered:

Doesn't really matter. Fox will just show footage from that one two years ago, and pretend like it's current, again.

Mark C: The Teaparty has started quoting Ghandi? Aside from being really funny, I think it's great they're looking into less violent forms of protest. Ghandi would never have tried to cut a congressman's gas lines over health insurance.

Maureen Said:

Will 10,000 show up for Tea Party in Washington, DC?

We Answered:

Not sure what tea party you are talking about - I live here and haven't heard anything about a "tea party" - so it probably isn't going to be a very big event.

We do have lots of large events here in DC (especially this time of year during the cherry blossom festival).

Gilbert Said:

Can someone tell me how many tea party protesters were arrested in Washington DC a few months ago?

We Answered:

Not a single solitary one of us!
May God Bless you and Merry Christmas!

Katie Said:

Tea party in Washington Dc, September,12?

We Answered:

So help me understand, you all seem so smart, 7 trillion dollar deficit, Czars that admit they are Communist, Czars that want to limit free speech unless that's speech that is inline with yours. More Government programs, because they were so good with Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac, And remember your Barny Frank was in charge of it as it went bust, as a matter of fact when Mccain and Bush called for closer insight Frank said "were fine going forward" that was 8 months before the collapse. And because we are upset we are stupid racist is that it? So if I didn't vote for Bush does that mean I don't like whites either?

Dwight Said:

912 Tea Party March on Washington DC, on 9/12 2009?

We Answered:

Well, for one thing, many of the pictures and videos being show on tv are from previous marches, not the 9/12 march. And this is known to be true because those pictures do not have buildings which have been in the sites shown since 2004. And others show cranes in front of the Smithsonian which were in place in the 1990s and haven't been there since.

Now did your friends need to get government permission or show papers giving them the right to cross state lines? Were they prevented from assembling in the March in DC or voicing their opposition? Were they arrested or beaten by government security agents for carrying signs that were offensive to the President?

What is their definition of Socialism?

It seems that these people want to continue with the status quo and allow the insurance companies to dictate what sort of treatment the patients can or cannot receive. Let the insurance companies continue to deny people coverage because of preexisting conditions or when they don't want to pay for a medical procedure, find some stupid thing that they can claim that the patient 'lied' about and drop their coverage. Or loosing one's insurance when they lose their job. Then there's all the people who are currently uninsured. The taxpayer is the one who ends up paying for those people when they need emergency medical treatment.

This bill is trying to rectify this matter. Yes, there may be some questionable things in it. But, this is were the Republicans in Congress should work together with the Democrats to debate and iron out those things.

I have a life threatening preexisting condition that would not be covered if I had to change insurances. And I was told, by an insurance company that they determined I know longer have a back problem because of the payments they had made to my doctor. That was over 20 yrs ago and I have had to pay for my therapy out of pocket since just to be able to keep walking. I would love to be able to get on an insurance plan that would not penalize me because of that preexisting condition or the fact that my back problem was cutting into their profit margin.
