VIDEO: Tea Partiers Cheer the Downgrade of America's Credit Rating

[Article 15]

There were NOT laughing because the S & P downgraded United States debt. They did everything they could to prevent a downgrade. They have been out there for 2-1/2 years with signs across this nation describing this nations debt--and the fear and worry--over this debt--and what it is going to do to future generations.

Nothing like a Black President to awaken all the good ole patriots...

Meh......despite the racist undertones of the Tea Party this has more to do with the occupant of the White House having a D next to his name than it does his skin color.

Funny how some here accuse others of racism in the same breath that they generalize the behaviors of an entire racial group.

Maybe, but I think it's about 50-50 in this case...

 

[hippie2049]

Simplest explanation:
Jethro held up the sign reading "Whoop'n holler" instead of the sign reading "Boo Obama".

 

[Father Time]

Racist redneck terrorists, every last one of em.

Can we strop throwing around terrorist accusations so lightly?

Unless they attacked someone or threatened to attack someone they are not terrorists.

Threatening to vote a certain way is not terrorism.

The bottom line is that Obama has proven that affirmative action doesn't work and that a black can't handle the top job of president. It's time to put the right race back in charge the way the founders envisioned it should be which is a true 100% natural born citizen born to two U.S. citizen parents with sole allegaince to the United States of America. We must always adhere to the founders intent and stick to tradition when it comes to chosing a president. It's time to end political correctness as we know it. As they say in the south, it's the cotton pickin truth.

By god, I feel so proud to be a American saying those words.

 

[Lakhota]

USAR, you've lost all credibility with your Klan-style racism...

Actually, Van Jones would make a great president. Maybe even Jane Fonda...

Is the tea party happy that Standard and Poor's, the credit rating agency, downgraded the United States' credit rating for the first time ever?

You'd think that was the case if you were in the crowd at a tea party rally in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, on Sunday morning. The Tea Party Express rolled into that northeastern city as part of its tour to bolster the six GOP state senators facing recall elections on Tuesday. But the most shocking moment of the event wasn't the vitriol spouted by tea party leaders, which has dominated news of the tour stops in recent days. Instead it was the cheers that erupted when one of the Tea Party Express' speakers described the recent downgrade as the tea party's fault.

Here's what happened: Midway through the Fond du Lac event, Florida talk show host Andrea Shea King took the stage. She told the audience that commentators were describing the downgrade of US debt to AA+ from AAA as the "tea party downgrade," laying the blame squarely on Congress' right-wing faction and its supporters. But rather than boo those who claim the tea party caused the downgrade, the 200 or so Wisconsinites in attendance cheered, sounding almost proud to be blamed for the downgrade.

Of course they laughed. The tea party movement in this country has been called all kinds of names--racists--last week--terrorists by the Vice President of the United States--and John Kerry and David Axelrod--Obama kiss asse's--described the downgrade as a downgrade against the tea party.

There were NOT laughing because the S & P downgraded United States debt. They did everything they could to prevent a downgrade. They have been out there for 2-1/2 years with signs across this nation describing this nations debt--and the fear and worry--over this debt--and what it is going to do to future generations.

And what's really LAUGHABLE--is every time one of these moron politicians comes out and attacks average--law abiding--tax paying citizens of this country--the tea party movement in this country GROWS in leaps and bounds. And that was what the applause & laughter was about.

And they did too-and plan on doing it again in 2012--LOL

Sure they were. And they did everything they could to encourage a downgrade.

And in the end..they may very well dissemble more then the government. This sort of thing shakes the very roots of our capitalistic system. These guys are fucking fascists.

Oh bullshit. McConnell said that the economy was a hostage worthy of ransom

Terrorists can be non-violent too and frequently are...structures and economic system are generally targetted.

It's a little of both.

But for sure the Democrat part is very correct. Conservatives hate when they are out of power.

What political party enjoys being out of power?

4 in 10 Tea Party members in this country are INDEPENDENTS and DEMOCRATS.

Here's a few disgruntled DEMOCRATS also Tea Party members in Grand Junction, CO--in truth the Tea Party in this country is GROWING faster than the Federal Government--and these vicious comments coming from politicians in this country--just give it a hyper growth rate boost.

Except, of course, if the Dems run for office as a Teabagger. Then the very fact that they are Dems automatically excludes them from the Teabag Party.

The teabaggers can attack the GOP party RINOs, but if a former Dem does the same then he can't be a teabagger!

RUSH: Yeah, this is a district in New York, the Tea Party guy was a Democrat National Committee stooge. He has run for office three times before as a Democrat. In fact he spent all of his time in this campaign attacking the Republican candidate. He Peroted the Republican candidate. What happened here is the Republican Tea Party voters got confused. Nine percent of them got confused and bought the notion that this was a genuine Tea Party candidate running in New York.

"The national breakdown of the Tea Party composition is 57 percent Republican, 28 percent Independent and 13 percent Democratic, according to three national polls by the Winston Group, a Republican-leaning firm that conducted the surveys on behalf of an education advocacy group. Two-thirds of the group call themselves conservative, 26 are moderate and 8 percent say they are liberal." From the link Oreo

At least this guy isn't afraid to hide his blatant racism. A whole lot more try to hide it. That being said....fuck you

I heard a couple of idiots cheering it.

I didn't see anyone cheering it in the video......so who's to say that the video wasn't doctored.

It's been done before. Overdubbing by someone in the control booth after the fact. I saw zero reaction from the people pictured.

It seems to me that they would be pissed about the left trying to blame the downgrade on the Tea Party.
