Some people irritated by the government's intervention in the economic crisis gathered at City Hall yesterday to throw a Taxpayer Tea Party. The NY Post reports that organizer Kellen Guida was "inspired to set up the rally after watching CNBC anchor Rick Santelli's scalding rebuke on Feb. 19 of Obama's $275 billion housing bailout last Wednesday." Guida said, "I know my basic economics, and know the stimulus package doesn't work. [Obama] is going to add more to the federal deficit in 20 months than Bush did in eight years." Hmm, maybe Guida doesn't believe in Keynesian economics! Daily Kos contributor stef went to the protest: "It was underwhelming, to say the least... They announced that the new battle would be not Democrats vs. Republicans but Capitalists vs. Socialists. They called for Revolution. They exhorted everyone to send tea bags to 'Nazi Pelosi.' Obama was variously described as a Socialist and a Marxist. They wore stickers that read JOKE with an Obama logo for the O. Most of them arrived via public transit."
