A good friend sent me this image of last night's TEA Party in St. Louis. KMOV estimated the crowd at 6,000, which is about ten times the crowd that gathered last time. But the best part may be the stunt pulled by local conservative radio host and former KMOV reporter Jamie Allman. The fact that he showed up last night is not suprising. The fact that he showed up AS A PROTESTOR, and fooled everyone, is! You gotta see this.
"Mr. Bill Johnson" had a lot of people fooled. Jamie could never have pulled this off if I had been there - I'd know that voice anywere! But in typical Jamie form, he seemed to enjoy the verbal sparring most all.

More evidence of KMOV's right wing bias, your croud estimates are WAY over estimated!!! Offical estimates are 2,000 not 6,000.

Yeah, Charlie, you're right. The left-wing media is suddenly right-wing biased. Funny how that happened overnight. The organizers claim 10,000. We estimated 6000. Do you feel threatened unless we diminish the crowd size, Charlie?

Right Charlie - how much more tax do you want to pay? What happens when your take-home is zero?
You just dont get it. Taxes include: income tax, sales tax, permits, licenses, property tax, special assesments, school taxes, corporate tax, death tax, and on and on. Do a little math and tell us all how much of your dollar you have left after you subtract all of the above. Whats left is your freedom Charlie. Your freedom is fading fast.

The teabaggers are ridiculous! They proclaim to be about cutting spending but most of them supported Bush who threw away a surplus on the immoral and illegal Iraq war and never complained. Not even when Bush started these bailouts. Their beloved Bush had a surplus and left us with a huge deficit.Now they want to set different standards for Obama. Unreal! Jamie Alwoman is a blow hard with a small intellect that wants to be Rush Limbaugh. Peace out and go Barack!!!
