      Where were those "fed up" protesters when the conservatives were taking away Americans constitutional rights in the deceptive guise of security?
      Once again the neo-cons have successfully spinned a topic so outta control it has their own constituents protesting their own interests.
      The short-sightedness of Bush's taxcuts are a large part to do with the necessary taxes needed now.

      what happened? i thought there were no racists at the tea parties? why isnt fox news denouncing these people? instead, they just claim that none of the people were racist. i guess thats what a "responsible" news organization is supposed to do... ignore facts.

        Notice how they rallied at places where taxpayer's money made a gathering possible? Traffic lights, public toilets, roads, parking, you name it. How ironic is that to protest what tax dollars gave you? I guess they want to act like a bunch of hippies and set up a stage in a field for a few days, sleep and poop in the mud, and sing kumbya between sets at woodstock...

      My favorite part was when the anchor said "she obviously doesn't watch Fox News, because we had that black guy." Hahahaha..sDoes he even realize what he just said?

      I just love it when fox news parades around a group of Uncle Rukus' they found and say "hey look....we're not racist...the black guy said it!" or "they weren't racist cause we had a black guy who was involved on the show". Does anybody remember the photo of the black guy standing in a group of completely WHITE people holding a sign that said black people against Obama.

      My Grandparents would call be a c word(was a recent episode on South Park didn't want to offend anyone)or a house....(leaving the rest out to not be offensive)....and yes I'm black.
