The ugly Tea Party

This past Tuesday the republican backed “ National Honk Against Health Care Takeover Day” took place in cities across America. Angry Tea Party protesters were asked to drive to their nearest congressional district office and drive around honking their horns at precisely 12 noon.

The Tea Party teabaggers who are now well known for their crudeness which they proudly put on display last summer in dozens of protests, and who have shown that they have a total misunderstanding of why we need health care reform, or any other reforms for that matter, have again reminded the nation why they are seen as a populist group with no moral foundations and a deep seeded hate for their fellow Americans.

The video you are about to watch took place this past Tuesday March 16, 2010 in Columbus, OH near the office of Rep. Mary Jo Kilroy (D-OH) at a counter protest by Democrats in what they called “Honk and Wave in Support of Health Care”. The counter protests were also planned for cities across the country.

The Columbus Dispatch video from the “Honk and Wave in Support of Health Care” contains a segment where teabaggers mock and scorn an apparent Parkinson's victim telling him "he's in the wrong end of town to ask for handouts", calling him a communist and throwing money at him to "pay for his health care".

This all took place outside the office of Rep. Kilroy.
