GOP in 2000/2004: “Elections have consequences!”

Afx114, in the midst of EVERYTHING that is happening – as we watch Obama incur the biggest deficit in American history and pass the fruits of that deficit to banks (just as Bush began to do with TARP) – how do you possibly come to the conclusion that these protesters are simply angry Republicans? Seriously, do you think that a Democrat should not be fed up with what is happening? I’ve never voted GOP, and if I hadn’t been on a 3-hour feeding and diapering schedule with my son I would have gladly attended a tea party.
If you think this is just about “right wing” extremists, you’re fooling yourself. This video of the Chicago tea party makes it clear that this is NOT about partisan politics; this is about rage against the machine owned by BOTH parties. Don’t believe me? Check out the sign clearly displayed halfway through the video: “REPUBLICANS SUCK, TOO!”
Stop playing into the hands of the Establishment and educate yourself about what’s really happening here. Do not be fooled and do not be misled.
Our country is about to be ripped apart at the seams. We can hardly afford ignorance now.
