> The British East India Company, facing severe financial reverses,
> convinced Parliament to allow them to sell tea in the American colonies
> at a price that would undercut even smuggled Dutch tea, and raise
> revenue while clearing their warehouses of a huge surplus.
> Unfortunately, this tea would still carry the despised three-pence per
> pound tax, which had remained as a token duty, and would be sold through
> only a handful of dealers in America. This high-handed policy united
> small merchants, left out of the deal, with patriot organizations that
> protested the tax. The arrival of the tea ships Eleanor, Dartmouth and
> Beaver sparked public protest in Boston, including public meetings,
> fliers and harassment of the consignees, who took shelter in Castle
> William to avoid the crowds.
>
> The Sons of Liberty, led by Samuel Adams, decided on 13 December 1773
> that the tea must not be unloaded, nor could it remain onboard twenty
> days and thus be seized for sale by customs officials. On 16 December,
> the night the Sons of Liberty planned their raid, a public protest at
> the Old South Meeting House turned rowdy after someone suggested dumping
> the tea in the harbor. As protesters stormed out of the meeting house,
> they met Sons of Liberty, costumed as Narragansett Indians, on their way
> to do the same thing. With a crowd of perhaps 1,000 Bostonians
> following, the "Indians" and volunteers stormed the three ships and in a
> three-hour fracas, broke open all 342 of the tea chests and dumped them
> into the harbor, which was at low tide.
>
> The attackers were conscientious, and they damaged no ship or other
> cargo. Only one man was injured, knocked unconscious by a collapsing
> winch. However, they had ruined 18,000 pounds worth of tea and
> infuriated the British government, particularly the king. Despite
> arresting a barber named Francis Eckley, who had been caught bragging
> about his participation, the Boston authorities were unable to find
> anyone who could identify the protestors. Patriots tarred and feathered
> Eckley's accuser in retaliation. George III specifically noted the Tea
> Party in his address to Parliament, and he and Prime Minister Lord North
> pushed through the Coercive Acts by April 1774. The Coercive Acts were
> designed to punish Boston and the colony of Massachusetts. They sparked
> further protests and eventually, war between Britain and her American
> colonies.
>
> Although usually considered by itself, the Boston Tea Party was a
> natural growth of other protests against the British administration in
> Boston, centered on royal governor Thomas Hutchinson and his
> subordinates. Until the publication of Thomas Paine's Common Sense in
> 1776, these protests were notable in their careful avoidance of blaming
> George III, instead focusing on his council or colonial administrators.
> The costumes and violence of the Tea Party were also an outgrowth of
> regular crowd demonstrations in Boston, including burning Catholic
> figures in effigy, vandalizing administrator's homes or intimidating
> customs and tax inspectors. Even when not politically motivated, the
> apprentices and laborers of Boston also engaged in highly charged
> territorial contests that often ended in injuries and rowdy outbursts,
> and were led by men who took pains to hide their appearance using
> symbolic disguises. In all these respects, it was not the Tea Party

The original Tea Party was against British fascism. The King and the
British East India Company were in cahoots to put a bunch of independent
American merchants out of business.
These idiots protesting today are long on slogans but very short on
substance. As far as I can tell they are doing the bidding of the
status quo.
I have a word of advice. Stay the fuck out of the way. Reagonomics
[aka Voodoo Economics] is dead. All the Wal Mart shoppers in the world
ain't gonna stop the progressives. Not after the last 8 years. Way to
go, George.

Purely political.
Notice these tea parties didn't exist a year ago, although the tax
rate hasn't been raised for 99 percent of Americans.

1:45PM Fox just had a live shot with Laura Ingram in Lafayette
Park. Of course it was a super tight shot. They never panned back --
even at the end. I wonder why? It is because there is no one there.
In another fox live shot Neil Cavuto said they will be coming. Lol.
I understand the sentiment of some of the protestors but more than
half of them are jokes. Now, you care about the deficit. Where were
your complaints Blue Collar when Bush was running a huge deficit and
spending 300 MILLION A DAY FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS on the war. This
is not even included in the deficit. Republicans think the war will
be paid for by magic.

She can't hear because they are yelling. Even the guy she gets into

At least fox tells the lies..
Fox Lies ...again...Cavuto caught on tape tripling tea bagger estimate
Here's Fox News host Neil Cavuto talking with a producer at 12:10PM,
recorded on a live mic (update: Cavuto was in Sacramento):
CAVUTO: Any estimates on how many people are here?
PRODUCER: No, we're trying to get...
CAVUTO: There's gotta' be 5,000.
PRODUCER: Oh, at least. You know, I mean the cops aren't going to
tell
us, and we've been trying to get ahold of the PR person to give us
their number, but I think 5,000. You can say it's starting at 5,000
[unintelligble, but sounds like "and maybe it's more."].
And here's Cavuto less than ten minutes later, tripling his crowd
estimate during his on-air broadcast:
CAVUTO: I know you cover a lot of these things Shep, so you're
probably better at estimating crowd sizes than I am. They were
expecting 5,000 here, it's got to be easily double, if not triple
that.
> HEIL Barack HITLER 0baMa0! [ get used to it ]
The Bush family got much of their fortune from trading with Hitler?
Where was your outrage?
The US government seized the Bush's assests for helping the nazi's.
"On October 20, 1942, the U.S. government ordered the seizure of Nazi
German banking operations in New York City. President Franklin
Roosevelt's Alien Property Custodian, Leo T. Crowley, signed Vesting
Order Number 248 seizing the property of Prescott Bush under the
Trading with the Enemy Act."

So what?
Why and for what reason is O spending that money?
All you've proven is that Bush left us one hell of a mess that is going
to take a H-U-G-E amount of money to -try- and repair.
