it looks like there were more people attending that event also.

it wasn't raining in that part of DC!!!

Must compare apples to apples!

That lady went on and on about the patriots 'trapped' because it rained on their campground/parade.

It's a shame that the millions of patriots in the campgrounds couldn't build a living bridge. Like ants.

that would force President Obama and the House and Senate leadership out of office?

I'm sure on nice sunny days in either the early spring or late fall they're a force to be reckoned with.

They probably don't stand up to the heat well either.

"Fair Weather Patriots." And all that it implies!

"where you at?"

The Tea Party puts itself to shame.

Every day, and every way.

Incredible.

====================================

young and old. This is why we are the party in touch with America. Shall I send a copy of this pic to the GOP and tell them the reason they can't win national elections is because they ignore 20% of these people, insult 25% of these people, make it harder to earn a living for most of them, and don't realize that a good 10-20% of these people aren't their voters. I think I'll send it. I can caption the pic "look at all these Obamaphones". Lolz.

. . . it's very touching.

I was thinking they all are remarkably good looking people, those Obama onlookers.

Unlike those pinched mouthed, cold eyed, sour faced baggers

Those pics make me happy in return.

They look like what I consider to be a nice mix of "normal" Americans. I also noticed that their faces look open, calm and happy, not closed, angry and agitated, like most groups of tea nuts. You're right about the GOP, they are closing in upon themselves. Still, they seem to have a lot of power, considering. Guess that's because they have the moneyed interests behind them.

as it looks pretty hopey and changey to me.

As uncountable Americans demand his ouster, Obama cynically believes he can distract everyone's attention from the swelling discontent by going out for lunch

This is good.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...ahem....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA *choke*, *snort*. Okay...I am good now... ... ...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

before the new government takes over.

night and day

The Republicans will think the photo was staged.

Delish!!!

So thankful to belong to this bright forward thinking group. The smiles and polite demeanor shows through! Real Patriots.

who turn out to see Obama and those who turn out at teabagger events.

. . . or, do they?

Looks like they had the woman in the purple sweater slide up to the table at the last minute to prevent a really bad photo image.

. . . one isn't w/ the president.

Three men and one woman were invited to lunch with the president and vice president.

The president's guests, according to the White House:

-- Abdullahi Mohamed

-- Antonio Byrd

-- Aidin Sarabi

-- Meredith Upchurch

The wing nuts on the right get so much press I sometimes worry that sanity in America has become a minority. Yesterday's 'Spring' incident and more people showing up for Obama's lunch makes my world seem a little less tilted.

The best they've had is that old actor.

One hundred fifty teabaggers and their 29,999,850 imaginary friends go all the way to Washington to overthrow the government, and the government sneaks out through the secret tunnel in the back and cowers six blocks away with delicious burgers in their hands? I hope the government at least had the dignity to get mushrooms on those beefy shields!
