Wow, this is what he really thinks about people who are anything by anti-government.  Tea-Party people stand for a return to our core values and beliefs of this country – back to the basic principles of the Constitution. From the New York Times.

Mr. Obama, during his private pep talk to Democrats, recognized Mr. Owens’s election and then posed a question to the other lawmakers. According to Representative Earl Blumenauer of Oregon, who supports the health care bill, the president asked, “Does anybody think that the teabag, anti-government people are going to support them if they bring down health care? All it will do is confuse and dispirit” Democratic voters “and it will encourage the extremists.”

Name calling and trying to discredit your opposition.  He is doing the old game of ‘if you can’t win the argument change the subject and discredit the person.’ The real question is when is President Obama going to have honest talk – when is he going to keep to his promises that he made during the campaign about having a bill available for the people to read prior to it being voted on?  When is he going to answer the questions posed to him?
