'Tea party' tax protests in Eustis boil with frustration

Protesters at the tea party in Eustis includes everyone from children to retirees.

[Tea Party]

Thanks to everyone who participated in the Tea Parties especially the Eustis one. It is amazing how many people attended. Also, did you notice most of them took their trash with them. That is what civilized people do. They pick up after themselves. Great to hear the young people speak and tell the truth about what they have experience in their short lives. It sometimes amazes me as too how stupid some of the elders are. I guess its the medication they are on that we are paying for. It keeps them in La-La-Land and everything looks rosie all the way to the voting booth. What a shame. Don't forget their is a Tea Party in Tavares at Wooten Park Tomorrow April 18th from 11AM to 1PM. Hope to see you there. Bring a cann of Pork and Beans. Free BBQ

Shame these people didn't protest about the future tax burden of two wars fought badly by Bush and his cronies which also cost trillions and were run up on the Govt's (our) credit card. It's nice to blame Obama for spending indiscriminately but let's not forget who really drove the country into the red.

What a bunch of losers in that crowd. Lots of people over 72 who are collecting welfare from the government but didn't see them complaining about that. (If you're over 72 and collecting social security, you already got back all the money PLUS interest that you put into the social security system so that every dime you get now is welfare from current workers)

Looks like a bunch of sore losers to me...you would get 10x the attendance(AT LEAST) for a sporting event or concert.
<YAWN> you all lost deal with it.

[UNbelievable]

To those of you who seem to have your head in the sand: this isn't about Obama. YOU need to get over it. You all can't even WIN with grace...

This is about Washington politicians, both Republican and Democrat, spending OUR money indiscriminately.

The last time I looked, the government PRODUCES nothing. Yet they TAKE from those who DO produce and spend it like drunken sailors (or drunken "persons" if "sailors" offends you.)

If you EARN an income, this is having and will have a negative effect on you. Don't be fooled by the few extra dollars you get in your paycheck each month (money that is yours to begin with.) The type of spending going on in D.C. right now is going to result in astronomical taxes for you and future generations. SOMEBODY is going to have to pay the bill...

Please join us in protesting the Niagara Permit Application by leaving your outside porch light on tonight starting at 8:30 pm. This will show great numbers in the disgust we have with this permit.

what a joke. the spending has been going on for years, but now you decide to have a "tea party" ... as if you really have anything near a clue as to what is best for this country ... if you do, why have you been so silent until now. you are puppets, pawns of some silvery-tongued radio lizards who incite fear and hatred so their stations can get top $$ to advertise on their programs. why not do something useful, rather than parade in your pajamas with your wrongly spelled, ignorant signs. obama was elected with 54% of the vote, 390 electoral votes, he's going to shake things up, and if you don't like it, move to texas after they leave the union. you'll love it there.

You know, its easy to read some of these blogs and see why the US is on a spiral decline headed to hades. While I am a republican I do not agree with everything they stand for.
I do not agree with them on the abortion thing. I agree with Obama. Abortion should be left up to the parent or parents. If not for Roe v Wade millions and millions of abortions could have been possible in the last 30+ years. Instead thanks to the Republican Party you retards were allowed to live, many against the will of your own parents. So, I do believe in abortion. Think about this the next time you cuss a Republican. If left up to the Democrats your sorry a**s**s would not be here. Another thought, Obama will not let you idiots re-produce, he believes in abortion too.

The ignorant white people are scared because they know that they will be the minority in the not to distant future. So sad.

What a bunch of tools...

YOU need to accept that for many it IS about Obama.

Sign at a Wisconsin "tea party": "Obama's Plan - White Slavery"

Sign at a Fresno "tea party": "1-20-13 Obama's Last Day"

Sign at a Phoenix "tea party": "Know Obama, Know Socialism, No Obama, No Socialism"

Sign at a St. Louis "tea party": "Extremist? I did not blow up anything. Bill Ayers did."

Sign at a St. Louis "tea party": Took the multi-color drawing of Obama that was so popular, put a Hitler mustache and Hitler styled hair on it with the caption "You Vill Change!"

Sign at a Phoenix "tea party": Shows Obama and the Saudi King with a caption reading "Obama was not bowing, he was sucking the Saudi jewels"

This is just a small sampling of signs. So, don't think your motivations are everyone's motivations.
