'Tea Party' call by CNBC analyst Reacts to Obama's economic plans with 'rant' on live TV
WorldNetDaily ^ | 2/19/09 | Jerome R. Corsi

CNBC's Rick Santelli this morning at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange With tongue only partially in cheek, a CNBC analyst on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange this morning responded to President Obama's proposed $275 billion deficit-financed homeowner bailout plan and other massive spending measures with a call for a new "tea party."

Rick Santelli, in a nearly three-minute rant that drew approving hoots and comments from nearby traders, said the Obama administration's promotion of bad behavior must be causing the founding fathers to roll over in their graves.

"We're thinking of having a Chicago Tea Party in July," Santelli told CNBC "Squawk Box" co-anchor Joe Kernan. "All you capitalists who want to show up at Lake Michigan, I'm going to start organizing."

I'm not much for these staged events. The REAL Boston Tea Party inflicted some serious economic damage on Gorgie Porgie the Turd...

So let's do some civil disobedience stuff like the Lefties do! Remember the 1960s???? Those bastards (Hi, Billy Ayers! Remember me??? I remember YOU and your little (well, I'll save that for later), anyway... civil disobedience is fun and effective.

Why should OUR tax money be used to keep other people in houses they should NEVER have bought?

Bingo! This is the whole problem. Those who took crazy risk win and those who didn't, pay them! Gotta love socialism...

Someone said on another post print out stimulus bill and throw in the lakes and etc. All over this country. Need to set a date and do it lots and lots of big cities in each state!

How about doing something that will get national media attention rather than this symbolic crap that the MSM will ignore. Lets all throw wet tea bags at liberal and RINO congressional crap.

If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.

“PS: CARRY BACON. Always. When you fly, bring bacon.”

Fun idea, there. Since people are bringing their own meals on flights now, we could probably spot fellow Freepers by the enormous bacon sandwiches spread on their tray tables. It would keep a nice Muslim-free perimeter, since they’d demand seat re-assignment. Big Costco-size bags of pork rinds (which are yukky) might get some attention, too.
