However, keep in mind that the uproar that kicked off the tea-party involved the second House vote to approve the bank bail-outs after it was defeated a first time, even when 90% of the calls they were getting demanded that they vote it down a second time.

You generally seem fairly reasonable, but I don't think you have the history quite right here. The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, of which TARP was a significant portion, was passed by the House on October 3, 2008 and signed into law by former President Bush. It was initially rejected by the House on September 29, causing the Dow to tank 700 points. So the Senate dumped its version and simply amended an earlier version that the House had already passed. HR 1424 passed 263-171; 91 House Republicans voted in favor of it, including such right-wing luminaries as John Boehner, Eric Cantor, Paul Ryan, John Shadegg, etc. Former President Bush signed the bill into law mere hours later.

It's tough to find the first mention of Tea Party rallies, but my distinct recollection is that they came into being during the spring and summer of 2009 as part of the insanity of the Health Care Reform debate.

A lot of people confuse the bank bailouts -- TARP -- with the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, which was passed by the 111th Congress and signed into law by President Obama. But ARRA did not contain any bank bailouts and in fact repealed a tax credit enjoyed by large banking conglomerates.

while i agree that glenn beck is a nazi and i agree with the posting, using the term "retard" does nothing to promote the message. we all slip up at times, Obama did it on the tonight show with his "special olympic" comment. Think about how you would feel if you had a mentally challenged child and home and you heard someone putting them in the same category as baby killer soldiers. and also don't forget that most "hos" are teenage runaways or sex slaves and most "bums" have their own sad story.
