following the money, connecting the dots:

Gwinnett place mall shut down the atlanta tea party.
Simon property group owns gwinnett place mall.
Melvin simon (a forbes 400 billionaire) is co-chairman of simon property group, inc.
Melvin simon has provided large political contributions to barack obama, hillary clinton, al franken, john edwards, the dnc and many other democrats and democrat organizations.
Melvin simon was a major contributor to barack obama inaugural committee and has given at least $1 million to the william j. Clinton foundation.
Melvin's wife, bren, personally donated almost $100,000 to various political candidates, was a fundraiser for hillary clinton's presidential bid, and contributed to president obama's inaugural committee.

It's a privately owned mall, this means nothing, it's unecessary democrat smear b.s.
And the beat goes on................

Oh good grief, get off of it already

Could the huge red print be any more obnoxious? You were told it came from a blog not a news paper article.. You know something that has fact in it...

To those that just don't want to read the "conservative point of view"
Just do a little bit of thinking about how the government is now wasting tax money and doing the opposite of what would help with job development.
Recently some like Jolie posted some really good articles about the abuses of ACORN, why should you care? Because it is your tax money too.

I challenge you to take out your tax returns and add up the taxes the government got to keep. That's federal and state. Does it add up to one of your salaries if you are a 2 income family? Look at how many other taxes you pay. Even though we don't pay tax on food items in the grocery store we pay tax on almost everything else. Figure out how many taxes you pay every time you eat out and buy a tank of gas. Look at your utility bills.

Most people just think in terms of their tax refunds and don't think about the actual taxes they do pay.

Now I ask you, aren't you tired of the government spending your money as if it's all free money?

Many of the people who attended the tea parties were both Republicans and Democrats there were even Independants and Libertarians there. Many of the people were there because they care about their children's future.

The thing is, I HAVE read the conservative point of view and made a personal choice to disagree with a large number of things and prefer the path I've chosen to live.
I care about my taxes as well as the next one but it is my choice to protest and express my opinions in the manner that I choose. I care about my family, our future and that of the country but don't think a tea party is something I want to be involved with.
No one here is saying the tea parties shouldn't exist. The point is the reason it was cancelled... it has nothing to do with the whole tea party movement. It has to do with someone screwing up and not contacting mall officials on time.

I think everyone is tired of paying taxes, no matter who the POTUS is your gonna pay taxes, that's life!
Your born, you live life, you pay taxes all through your life, you die & someone else pays more taxes on their inhertitance from your money.

I think we're all aware of all the taxes that are imposed on utility bills, phones bills, gas, certain food items, income ect. Have you just figured this out, I mean this has been going on forever.............

To say the government is now wasting tax money, where have you been? Your very naieve to believe that Obama is the 1st POTUS to waste our tax dollars!
