    I would like to know why GE payed no taxes and got a large refund then moved more jobs from wisconsin to china. The republicans are responsible for the almost all the deficit. without the wars,the huge tax breaks,the medicare D drug plan, we wouldn’t have had the stimulus package or all the other things we have to pay for now. Also something needs to be done about these republican governors trying to supress the votes of the people who are likely to vote democratic. If the tea party is all about constition,I wonder where they are.

    I am sick of the word “entitlements”..I paid over 45 years for Social Security/medicare..it is a “INVESTMENT”…
    GIVE IT BACK WITH INTEREST AND I WILL RE-INVEST”…WE WILL SUE FOR IT’S RETURN..BELIEVE ME…THEN A PRECEDENT WILL BE SET! “Yes”…the federal gov’t can be sued for “fraud” amongst other things…you think Americans won’t do it? If it was a “entitlement” why was is “raided” and never paid back? Lobbying should be outlawed and made a “felony”..it is “legal bribery”…Corporations made record profits…again..because their work force is over-seas. I am tired of supporting the greedy parasites of this Country..this is not a democracy..it is a dictatorship run by “self serving” serf centered thieves…total corruption…no where near the ethics/principles of The Constitution..give ME the tax loopholes Corporations enjoy…give “ME” the same tax breaks..write-offs..,this stops NOW!

    A big thank you to all of you who turned out for this – I wish I could be there!

    Why did not you put closed captioning on Video TV? I am deaf and I was at the rally. Of course, there was no interpreters. I was hoping that video tv would have the closed captioning so I can read what they said.

    The more of us who speak out and tie up the phone lines to Congress, the better. When congress is in recess in August, we all ought to pay a visit to our representatives.

    cspan3 has the tea party freshmen on making blithering remarks about Boehner’s bbill. Boooooo CSPAN

    C-Span just said they were having technical problems showing the rally. I WANT to believe them, but I’m just so cynical anymore.

  11. Diane Gavlinski says:

    I’m sick of this country being run by people who only think they have to answer to whoever is lining their pockets with cash. WE elected you, now DO YOUR JOB for US, not THEM!!

  12. Jeff Bohning says:

    Get on C-Span, they’re pre-empting with an analyst.
