Great post! I’m a short drive from the Boston Tea Party.

They know they’re in trouble. One of my coworkers was talking about how bad of a speaker President Bush was, so I showed her several videos of Obama stumbling and bumbling when he didn’t have a teleprompter.

She also couldn’t believe the “57 states” comment — she admitted that we would never have heard the end of it if Bush said that. She also didn’t understand how anyone could say that; it should be so ingrained in our mind, like second nature.

"She also didn’t understand how anyone could say that; it should be so ingrained in our mind, like second nature."

That's certainly true for those of us who grew up in America, isn't it?

I mean disagreements.

They would be wise not to tread there...even politically neutral people would rebel if they lost the freedom of the Internet.

Good to see you’re from Missouri - and that our state is one that’s attempting to affirm the 10th Amendment.

Point taken!

Obvious question for "PC" Gibbs: did B.O. "hit print" and read the porkulus monstrosity before he signed it?

Of course no one has read it.

That would be a Jake "Tap-Tap" Tapper question...

Great to meet you!
I had no idea about missouri’s
Bill! I just past that along to some fellow missourians. Thanks!

[scott7278]

Great to meet you, also! As a sign of protest, I ordered some stickers of the First Navy Jack - you can see it on my homepage.

TEST...Test...test.....

The brownshirts are coming.

This is the essence of this smelly little Obamian emission. It is menacing against a private citizen by the chief executive, just as it was when it was perpetrated against Rush Limbaugh. And the "Good Germans" of the media suck along in harmony.

I wonder if they are going to spend the next four years "lashing out" at every private citizen who criticizes the new administration? They're going to be mighty busy!

[dalereed]

Santillo is a hero, the White House inhabitants are lying human waste!

[dalereed]

“Time to abort Obama!”

His mother screwed up!

"Zee Obama administration makes me blush"

"Zee Obama administration makes me happy as a little girl..."

[ponygirl]

He’s not “entirely” sure where he lives. Are they looking into this?

All I know is that the little hairs on the back of my neck stood up when he said that.

[Bronzy]

Yes. It is about time for the 21st century patriots to revolt. We want out forefathers to be proud.

Santelli was reporting the news, which is the lack of confidence in the Stimulus plan and the fear Obama engenders in the market.

He probably thought that somebody had to say something.

The honeymoon's over.
