Political Humor

Here are more pictures from the Manchester New Hampshire Tea Party but first a little something about the media coverage…

I loved how the media played dogpile on the rabbit when it came to the Tea Parties. And the liberals call themselves animal lovers?

Some seemed excited, even giddy to oblige of course.

The way he was panting and salivating, I wondered if Keith Olbermann hit his head on the bashing bandwagon ceiling on the way into the MSNBC studios Wednesday.

There is no truth to the rumor this caused another tingling in Chris Matthews’ leg however.

Can you blame the reporters of CNN though?

They had to take time out of their busy schedule writing up exposes of Obama’s new dog (no not Olbermann) or noting Barack’s awesome talent for gift-giving to cover the rallies of the radicals.

CNN Reporter: “They call this a protest? They didn’t even have bottled mineral water. Wait until the boys at the yacht club hear about this travesty.”

Oh the humanity!

No wonder why they were so edgy covering the American extremists.

I just hope someone handed Susan Roesgen a Midol after her Tea Party interview. Lord knows she could have used one.

On with the pics…

You know someone was going there eventually with a Hitler/Obama comparison. Then again, organizing a community to hate another group of people could technically be considered the job duties of a community organizer.

Oh geez I just went there too. Whoops.

How can you tell this is not a liberal rally? The United States flag of course.

To borrow a phrase from the liberal moonbats: “Yes we can!”

From within the eye of the tax revolt storm. And what’s up with the “glowing” church in the background?

Because Obama’s team cares about us. Really they do. Just ask them.

The best sign contest at the end of the Tea Party. In the foreground are some of the Drunken Sailors.

Too late. Our tax dollars are already hard at work helping ACORN, the liberal organization with the acronym for a type of nut recruit people for their evil bidding.

The sign on the left reminds me of a great quote from talk show host Jerry Doyle:

“The opposite of pro is con and the opposite of progress is Congress.”

No that shadow is not me. It is the shadow of Tax-You-To-Death lurking at our doorstep. It also might have been the guy next to me taking a picture though. Not sure 100%.

It means something but I still don’t get the blanket part. Wish I had thought to ask her about it then.

On a side note is that a 1984 sign in the background? If not it is 1994 which should send chills down Democrats’ spines. 2010 is not far away…

Not to worry, it still exists. We are personally responsible for giving our tax dollars to the government to squander.

This was the Coalition of New Hampshire Taxpayers‘ booth, one of the many political groups in attendance.

Wait, you mean Tim Geithner printing money in the middle of the night in the Treasury’s basement is counterfeiting? Obama said it was legal.

This was one of a rotating set of signs on a billboard on a pickup truck parked alongside the Tea Party. Nice of Nancy to feel something for NH being that she can’t feel her own face but I concur with the sentiment of course.

And finally one of my favorite pictures from the Tea Party…

It was a fun evening in Victory Park in Manchester, New Hampshire Wednesday as hundreds turned out in one of two Tax Day rallies in the state.

Tea bags anyone?

Thomas Paine was there with the “Live Free or Die” flag. If there is a time we could use him it is now. This country needs it’s common sense back.

The people in Congress keep telling us higher taxes help the children. This family knows otherwise.

Interesting take on things.

Bruce (pictured above) from No Looking Backwards had the best quote of the day:

“Wake Up!

People shouldn’t be watching Good Morning America they should be watching Wake Up America”.

Some more great signs…

In one of the pictures I took I noticed something…

This guy is practicing Open Carry. Were the cops worried? Did they tail the guy? Nope. Just another law-abiding citizen exercising his right to openly carry a weapon in a responsible manner.

Despite what the liberal moonbats say there is nothing wrong with that.

So is this the beginning of a movement to take back our government which is an entity for the people by the people? One can only hope but in the end it is up to us. We have to take the ball and run with it.

We are right-wing radicals after all right?
