They have the right lobbyists throwing the right money at the right senators to push through bills that are beneficial to their bottom line.

More like hijacked by the somewhat saner.

I've never been to a Tea Party but I don't ever recall someone taking a dump on a cop car. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...=feeds-newsxml

I kind of want to go to the Atlanta one with a sign that says "I have a right to a free unicorn". I'm also going to steal their high dollar tents that they got from REI, Ipads, and car. When they bitchc I'm just going to tell them it is socialism in action.

From above article:
"The goal is to "shut down" the building. This could be difficult. Arrests have begun."

Should we go ahead and start the "pigs taze innocent protesters" thread?

Its only a matter of time. There was soem controversey in NYC about cops who had a hard time arresting 4 teenage girls who hopped the turnstyles in the subway. Sadly the cops did the right thing so no video to bash them on.

They have set up a little protest fest right across the street from the Apple Store.

It's funny how much Steve hated his fan boys too. Steve really really didn't like the people who bought his products, but loved their money.
