#2 My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.

Um, no. I like this.

So, I guess this leads to the next question, Mr. President. You say that there are pitchforks out there, and maybe there are. But are you really standing between them and the bankers?

Or are you trying to get the bankers to stand between them and you?

#3 Anyone other than me considering making a cardboard pitchfork for the Tax Day Tea Party?

#4 We're kicking around interesting ideas for signs for the San Antonio Tea Party. Which will be held in Alamo Plaza, on the 15th, and will have everyone and his brother crammed into the plaza and overflowing into the streets around. Every time we get an estimation of attendance, it doubles, and then doubles the next time. This is all going to be very interesting...

#5 I am the president - Obama

'L'Etat, c'est moi' - Louis XIV

That's the problem with Marxist 'scientific' history. It ignores the real record for its agenda. A later Louis would face his own massive financial crisis.

My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.

Yep, I'm sure Louis XVI said something on those lines to the First Estate and fellow ruling class. When the anger was finally manifested, all those in the ruling institutions and the institutions themselves were swept from the landscape. Maybe Obama needs to give his former peer Senator Dodd a call about whom may or may not be the target of the anger. Once the storm is released, no one is safe.

#8 Sgt. Mom -- I had WOAI on the other day -- Glenn Beck was being interviewed by a local talk show guy, (Pags) and is coming to San Antonio -- doing his TV show then, to the Alamo! That prolly just tripled that number.

#9 Quadrupled, and then quadrupled again, once Glenn Beck decided he wanted to party here; at this point, the schedule starts with his show at 4, then there will be the rally, and speakers, and all. The rest of the committee and I are battening down for next week, when the interest will really kick into high gear. Oddly enough, many of the local Tea Party volunteers are retired or former military.

Odd? Not odd at all. They are freedom's guardians. Always have been. The same folks who at least THOUGHT we had defeated the global communist threat.

#11 Does Obama have any clue that the anger is toward the A$$hats who borrowed a few trillion dollars on America's credit card and flushed it down the toilet. Obama likes spending other peoples money so much he won't even take it back when they do not want it!
