Where are the counter teabagg protesters?
I've been watching CSPAN & CNN, they are showing protesters outside of capitol hill chanting kill the bill. As lame as the teabaggers are, those who live in or around DC who support this HC bill are even lamer for not showing up.wtf Being silent and not showing support is allowing the opposition to control the debate. DC is full to the brink of democrats, there is no excuse for them not showing up to counter the teabaggers.

2. I dont know but there's this....
Massive pro-immigration march just passing north side of Capitol. It dwarfs Tea Party rally on the other side of the Capitol.

3. Maybe they are there and the media has simply chosen not to cover them.
Wouldn't be the first time that's happened.

9. Unfortunately proud2BlibKansan
I don't have the time or funds to take a trip DC from FL, I live no where near DC. If I did live near DC I would be there with bells on. I'm just focusing those who can afford the trip and those who live in or around DC. Vaberella and leftcoaster, I have already addressed months ago why I chose my username, at the time I didn't know it was a such a negative word. I thought it was pro-Obama. I wanted to change it, but the site will not allow me to change the name, I would love to change it. Anywho, lets get back to the topic of thread please.

11. That's what happens when you pass a lame bill. However, the Rape-Publicans and...

...their teabag toadies have absolutely NOTHING, which is why even a lame bill is kicking their clammy, white asses BIG TIME, even without the support of protesters.

Boo. Yah.
