Nancy joins David Schuster on MSNBC and debates Armstrong Williams on the question of whether tea parties are toxic to the Republican party. Nancy says that people resent the tea party folks constantly saying that they alone represent the "will of the people". The real measure of political will is at the election polls and not shifting public opinion polls.

1. She took the words out of my mouth!

I am sick to death of the tea partiers and especially Repub Congress critters saying that they are speaking for the "American people." I AM the American people. They sure as HELL don't speak for me.

2. They made YOU. deal with it.

3. I'm so glad she brought that up at the end. How many times have I heard a fricken

Republican, let alone these Tea Baggers, claim they're talking for me. It infuriates me. The GOP refuses to take responsibility for their role in inciting these people.

[Enthusiast]

4. Armstrong Williams is no better

than Limbaugh or Beck. He would forgive any excess by these teabaggers.

Armstrong's message is the same as the official M$M message since August -- the tea baggers are a real grassroots movement representative of the sentiments of the American people. This is the first lie and embraced by the entire media.

5. The same people who claim the tea party rallies represent ALL of America

ignored or ridiculed the much larger anti-war protests. We objected to the invasion of Iraq and sadly our objections to the war have been proved to be correct. Most of those tea baggers could not accurately define (or spell!) most of the words they use to voice their objections.
