Tea Party Anti-Health Care Reform Rally (3/20)

[moxie]

From what I understand, "all the video" was being made by the tea party people,
who certainly wouldn't be all that eager to support what the Democrats said.
I haven't heard that there was any videotaping by actual media sources and/or the House members (who weren't likely to have taped themselves as they were walking; why would they expect to hear the N-word & then be asked to prove it?).

What we have here are several members of the House who said something happened.
And who now are not being believed (and worse yet, called liars) because they didn't happen to provide video proof. Too bad that these days, a person's word isn't enough.

Wrong. Lewis' people were filming everything as they were walking though the crowd.

Click on the link and watch the videos posted there. Nobody said the "N" word. People were booing and shouting "kill the bill" and Lewis' people are seen openly filming the whole thing.

As I was walking past the TV this morning, I heard Candy Crowley on CNN's "State of the Union" say that there is proof...and reporters heard the "N" word and the "F***ot" word. I'm sorry I missed the entire segment.

I also cannot understand how anyone can be so selfish and against health reform? How can you wish hard working people to lose their houses etc. so they can get health care? Yes, even hard working people get ill and lose jobs. I would never imagine not having universal health care like we do. If that makes a socialist, then I'm a proud socialist. BTW, it does not. maybe you could also read some books on politics. I minored in politics, very interesting.

Right. Like I would believe anything the media has to say. So let's see the proof then.

If you don't believe anything the media would say then why would you believe anything on Breitback's site? After all, he's also part of the media.

Editing to add: Just what "proof" would you believe?
Because, after all, video can be edited to add/delete content.
So I'm not sure why you'd believe video; couldn't you just claim it had been doctored?

RAC5Viggie,


I am really sick and tired of reading your crap.

Don't read my posts, then. Put me on ignore. Scroll past my posts. Kill yourself. Whatever.

You really need to stop painting anyone who disagrees with Obama or his policies as racists. That race card is getting real worn out from being played so often and is going to fall apart soon.

People who don't like Obama really need to learn to disagree with him or criticize him without using racist language or pictures or comparing him or his wife to monkeys/apes/gorillas. (They especially need to leave his children alone.) The rest of the teabaggers need to learn not to tolerate that kind of thing. Get a new game and you won't have to worry about what "cards" the Obama supporters are playing. Simple as that.

I see I hit a nerve showing the proof that no racial slurs were directed at John Lewis or anyone else for that matter.

A victim of racism being called a liar strikes a nerve. Imagine that.

Did you know that there are also African-American Tea Party members such as Kevin Jackson and Deneen Borelli? Tea Party members are all races, religions and party affiliations. Don't assume we are all white Republicans, because we're not.

That doesn't mean the teabaggers aren't racist. It only means that some minorities suffer from self-hatred or have Special Snowflake Syndrome.

There is video of black Congressman Emanuel Cleaver being spit on. The teabaggers claim that the spit was inserted via CGI. I'm sure if video of Lewis being called the N-word surfaced, the teabaggers would make up some excuse not to believe it.

RNC rejects joint 'civility' statement

Various members of the DNC — including Chairman Tim Kaine, Executive Director Jen O’Malley Dillon and Communications Director Brad Woodhouse — contacted their respective RNC counterparts this week in hopes of getting RNC Chairman Michael Steele to co-sign a document with Kaine that, in part, called for “elected officials of both parties to set an example of the civility we want to see in our citizenry.”

[Solidarity]

Kill yourself?

Really?

That's all you got?

I was a victim of racism and called a liar - so any inappropriate thing I say is okay?

Really?

Get over yourself.

[RA5CViggie]

Kill yourself?

Really?

That's all you got?

Didn't you read my post? I also told Tarynn if she was "sick of reading [my] crap" she could put me on ignore or scroll past my posts. Should I make more suggestions on how to avoid my posts? Okay, then: Quit MKF. Burn your computer. Gouge your eyes out. *shrug*

[Solidarity]

I don't understand how people are all over the teabagger's comments such as "kill the bill", "targeting the incuments", but you would use similar language and see no issue with doing so. "Kill yourself" "gouge your eyes out" seem terrorist in nature.

I cannot believe that terrorists are allowed to post on the MKForum. However, you have done so for quite some time and your posts are allowed to stand. Racist and a terrorist all wrapped up into one individual. Your mother must be so proud. Really proud.

Back to the topic of hatred at tea Party protests:
Here is the video of the "spit" last week and also included is another video from a leader of the TP movement regarding the harrassment he has received:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/0..._n_517275.html

During a Tea Party protest in DC last weekend during the health care reform vote on Capitol Hill, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo) was reportedly spat on by a protester and Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga) was called a 'ni--er.'

I work in Court of Law. Spitting on someone is against the law and is considered ASSAULT.

GMAFB. Terrorist?!

While I don't agree with the comments being thrown back and forth, terrorist does NOT come to mind. And I think you're treading a dangerous line by calling that person one.

[RA5CViggie]

A terrorist? But I didn't even say "Allah Akbar" in my post. Eh, no big deal. To quote Pierre Trudeau, I've been called worse things by better people.

Palin Advises Tea Partiers: 'Stop' Cars With Obama Bumper Stickers

"Or that bumper sticker you see on the next Subaru driving by, an Obama bumper sticker. You should stop the driver and say, "So how is that hopey, changey thing working out for you?"

Um...it's working out quite well. Didn'tcha hear? We got health care reform passed, ya bimbo.

I dare the teabaggers to stop my car.

[moxie]

Great, just what we need. More road rage.

Just how does Palin feel it's appropriate to confront people and/or interfere with traffic?

Florida urologist Jack Cassell posted a sign on his office door reading, "If you voted for Obama ... seek urologic care elsewhere. Changes to your health care begin right now, not in four years."

Well, piss on ya!

Disgruntled Democrats join the Tea Party

Asked how she feels about having voted for the president, Lewis said "I feel lied to, cheated and raped."

Raped? RAPED? The teabaggers can have you, you stupid b****.

Geico Voice Actor Dropped After Insulting FreedomWorks, Tea Partiers

"I don't blame GEICO for protecting themselves. They have a business to run and can't waste time getting caught up in FreedomWorks' circus. And they've been very good to me in the past."

He left a voicemail for FrenchWorks asking about "the percentage of people that are mentally retarded who are working for FreedomWorks and who are following it" and how they will "spin it when one of your members does actually kill somebody, wondering if you've got a PR spinning routine planned for that or are you just gonna take it when it happens."
