None of these people will pay the slightest attention to this.

They are not afraid of a teabag.

Now they might get a little fear if some of us old bags got together.

Why not send the teabags to local offices instead of Washington?

That could be workable. I guess each states policy on accepting such could be checked before doing so, but I think it is important to do so. I also think it might have more impact if each of us went to our local reps closest office and hand delivered one. Everyone should have a reps office within one hour or so (except perhaps those in big sky country) but your congresscritters office should be in one of a few counties local to you. I really think that might be the best course of action. These idiots all go to washington, and local news would carry it if they were alerted to it and enough people did it. that would be picked up by talk radio/bloggers/ and would eventually be picked up by fox and go national. We should honestly plan a day or a week of it and have a steady stream of people going for that time period. Make sure each person who goes either calls or emails a tip to their local news outlet.

As the CNBC reporter said: "I'm gonna dump Derivative Securities"

What someone should do is photoshop an "American Security Certificate" that can be sent over and over via e-mail, printed and posted, posters, buttons, stickers, the works...

Basically, a marketing campaign to protest. The only problem is finding funding since now the CENTRAL GOVERNMENT is taking people's money and redistributing as they see fit.

0bama and the liberal democrats, now known to be stealth socialists, are creating change in America that is eerily similar to the change Adolph Hitler and the National Socialist Party, more commonly referred to as the Nazis, promised Germany in 1933. The deceit Hitler and his cronies perpetuated was not fully realized until the Nuremberg trials, and well after millions paid with their lives.

I was thinking we could all start sending copies of our mortgage payment invoices or books directly to the White House, lol.

This is a good idea but needs some tweaking. I suggest sending a bag of pistachios and calling it Operation Nut Sack.

“I would suggest a different name.”

LOL! I came here just to say that!

Although, that might be well deserved in their cases too!

Not only that, but I think tea bags (the beverage kind) weren’t invented until long after the Boston Tea Party.

I suggest a third political party with a different name for it (I’m drawing blank for the moment)with the Teabag as it’s symbol?

I don't really know what you are talking about, but here's a pic of a woman with tea bags in her face.
