Default Teabaggers Mount New Protest

Teabaggers’ New Protest: “No Government Takeover of Congress”
Congress “No Place for Voting,” Protesters Say

WASHINGTON (IP) – Just hours after the historic vote on health care
reform, the Tea Party movement has taken up a new battle cry, protesting
what they believe is a "government takeover of Congress."

Thousands of self-styled Teabaggers marched on the Capitol today to make
the point that, in the words of one of their number, "Voting has no
place in Congress."

"Our forefathers designed Congress to be a place where people talked and
talked and never got anything done," said Teabagger Tracy Klugian. "This
whole voting thing that happened on Sunday was tantamount to a
government takeover of Congress."

He said the Teabaggers “would continue protesting until Congress stopped
passing laws and got back to the business of being Congress.”

The protest march began at the Capitol and then moved to the U.S. Postal
Service, where the Teabaggers protested a government takeover of mail.
