A TEA Party sponsored “Impeach Obama” demonstration on a major Southern California freeway overpass caused traffic to backup at least ten miles, as the organizer apologized for “any small inconvenience” drivers may have dealt with, as reported by the San Diego-based local news portal the Carlsbad Patch on June 9, 2013.
Flying a number of American flag as well as the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party-adopted Gadsen flag, protesters flashed to motorists on the Interstate 5 southbound lanes in Carlsbad, California placards stating “Remember Benghazi,” “Obama Lies” and “Amnesty Hell No!”
Organizers estimated between 25,000 and 30,000 vehicles would drive under the Tamarack Rd. overpass where the protesters set up shop.
By 12:15, the notoriously slow California freeway traffic had become a slow flowing parking lot from the protest site all the way back to the main gate of the sprawling Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base, ten miles distant.

We’ll let you go with a warning.
They really need to read a copy of How To Win Friends and Influence People.
You’re not gonna win anyone over to your side by tying-up rush hour freeway traffic and making them all late for work.
Thank you officer...
There was no traffic tie-up, the headline is journalistic bs.
You need to see the video, no traffic jam.
Hey! That has a ring to my fading memory!! Sounds like a y2k chant that went like this in CA’s crapitol... “No More Commies In The Whitehouse!” (grin)
He's a danged dream snuffer of the lowest order!!! Yes, I'm in the health insurance industry!!! First I had to fight Hitlery in the 90's and now this jerk in the new century... and you're worried about makin anyone a few minutes late to whatever?
Glad to see that. Totally effing up someone’s day is something out of the Alinsky/OWS playbook.
I’m sorry! I shouldn’t have said anything because you’re probably in the P.R. biz and have an account with the government or something...
rush hour traffic on a Saturday morning in San Diego County... that was a nice fast flow
Max outdoor activities in America’s Finest City.
Although that always goes without saying, confirmation is nice.
“Actually, it said, “Waterboard Obama, Find Out if He Knows Anything!”. Expressed your way, it presumes a fact not in evidence. “
Just adapted a joke for you:
0b0z0 was going to a commie gathering in North Korea. In Kennedy airport, the unionized, rigid TSA asked him for his passport, he told him he had none. The TSA refused to let him board the plane until he identified himself.
0: I’m POTUS, don’t you see my pictures in the papers?
TSA: I don’t read this shit!
0: don’t you see my speeches on TV?
TSA: I don’t watch this crap called TV!
0: what do I do to prove that I’m POTUS who’s well known globally?
TSA: it just happens that some celebrities forget their passports. We ask them to perform something we recognize it with. Leno was asked to crack a joke, he did We told to please board with our apologies. Neil Diamond was asked to sing so he sang Sweet Caroline and we let him board. So please do something that would make us recognize you and allow you on the plane.
0: very frustrated, he shouts: but I don’t know anything!
TSA: wit our great apologies, please board Mr. President!
