Van Nuys Tea Party a Huge Success!

Although my wife voted for Barack Obama, she’s so upset with the Democrat plan to punish our grandchildren with high taxes that she decided to make the Van Nuys Tea Party her first protest. Kevin James was one of MANY speakers.

Shortly after arriving, my bride bonded with other post-9/11 ex-Dems who, like her, are successful entrepreneurs. One couple explained that Obama’s policies have forced them to lay off thirty of their 60 employees. Although they dug deep into their liberal past they could not figure out how Obama plans to stimulate the economy by destroying small businesses with unconscionable taxes.

Another friend, a veteran deputy city attorney, told me that although he voted for Obama and received the same education Obama received, our President behaves as though “he never attended the same classes.” We were also surprised to see two of our contractor-friends who admitted that Van Nuys was their first protest.

Despite rumors that moonbats from Code Pink and ACORN would try to crash the party, we identified only two flea-bitten trolls who tried to drag protesters into their theology. We kept an eye on them but, beyond asking some inane questions, the protesters seemed to enjoy venting to the moonbats.

The LAPD and Federal police were also present. They never showed much concern about the crowd, despite Janet Napolitano’s sophomoric warning to law enforcement to be wary of “rightwing radicals.” Once the protesters finished reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and sung the Star Spangled Banner, the cops seemed to relax, sensing that the rest of the evening would be much easier than the customary reception they receive from Obama’s rock-and-bottle supporters. And since us “right-wing radicals” weren’t torching buildings, smashing windows, or stealing plasma TVs and sofas, the news media wasn’t a big presence either.

All in all, we felt invigorated and look forward to the next protest. Having been assigned to a dozen or more protests that included the LA riots, I'd say that I never felt more comfortable than being surrounded by Napolitano's "right-wing extremists." No wonder America's enemies and the Democrat Party don't want us to have guns. (more here)
