" Maybe talk a lot about the tea party spreading across the nation now the movement is growing and we know that where's it headed. From Montana over the weekend a citizen Townsend coast to coast barely got a thousand people turned out Montana over the weekend. People are doing what they called the tax and spend policy debates. And revolt of the current administration and congress and they're gearing up for the mother of multiparty news. Protest will be held nationwide on tax day next week. April 15 his troops as were not a -- Republicans. Were not alive when Democrats were just sick and tired of spending money in Washington. Bob Beckel former campaign manager for the Walter Mondale campaign of Fox's contributor. And an urgent terrorist foxnews.com that your -- contributor and Republican its own good morning to both of you are doing. Sun -- along John and which -- we're going on this -- and I was changing may be the political debate in this country."
" Well finally see an uprising from. As the heartland which I don't think we've seen in a long time people are finally paying attention to Washington and the real prize here down is going to be to 2010 election so Bob just going to write off -- tea parties -- and rationing under the -- but these are serious it's like a boiling -- you see bubbles all over the country this is eventually going to turn into our revolution. I believe -- the French revolution started with a tax revolt that nobody saw coming this is the exact same thing but it's not about the money bill we talk about people angry about taxing and spending. This is a culture. Cultural revolution -- the culture war people are fighting against. Barack Obama's radical shift to turn us into Europe so this isn't much larger than just the dollar."
" I find fascinating is much like feel bombing campaign in the early days really recruit a lot of his supporters -- grassroots operation. On the Internet that's what the tea parties are doing as well no Bob I I know you don't believe that the turnout have been impressive. Mom yeah at the I don't know a month ago he had 4000 on the Sunday afternoon in Cincinnati. Following we did 5000 Orlando Florida. I think the last big political rally they held my hometown of Cincinnati is during the Vietnam War. "
" They have on the Vietnam -- in Cincinnati. You can't get much for Republicans since I hadn't I didn't know that. Look -- these teen parties or ate nothing new secondly that -- Montana to get there wasn't about to party because I'll -- those people had guns. And that the other thing I would tell you is this is not new when you say they're not aligned with the Republican Party. This is being perpetuated. Throughout the Internet by the same right wing conservative tax groups that have a line with the Republican Party. And I don't expect that they're going to get that big turnout one of the reasons is that frenetic 5% of Americans are going to get their taxes cut ended talks about the uprising in the French revolution. Had some that do that tax increase. That there may not be historically accurate doesn't matter there is no tax increase to arts are here just kind of fundamental socialism thing you guys got Muqtada setting him but by giving you the snow created bomb. I'd I'd give it so little credence I think it's not nobility that every April 15. The American taxpayer aging in the rest of these groups try to get people to rally than make a little bigger this time because -- popular -- has --"
" Before we even get to April 15 put ICO -- on an entirely different way. And here's our CNN that the battle outrage started with the tea parties. That most politicians in Washington both Democrats and Republicans start to see that turn out that's when they figured out the -- channel some of the race still. And that's where you got to be -- bonus deal Lander and."
" And we haven't even seen the effects of Barack Obama's policies so this is just Barack Obama talking about his policy imagine next year's tax -- mean Bob you can shake your head in just think you know I'll let them let -- meet government cheese instead -- let -- eat -- because that's essentially what Barack Obama is saying that this is a serious issue and Barack Obama's polling shows and he's gone down with independents this isn't just a Republican issue anymore this is an American issue and it's very true I -- you laugh about the socialism in Europe. But Europe has promoted mediocrity and stagnant economies for the last few decades I mean you can't. You can't tell us that we are going in a drastic left -- alerts. It is essentially going to turn us into a European socialist welfare states them and why people -- squeeze and."
" A final comment about. Well I thought comedies that's ridiculous for about as far away from socialism that was very clear on Obama's trip and no I understand your a year now she actually is very obvious your idea and -- and they make a point. I -- I let my my point is -- that that your the reviews of the big Anchorage areas because you do that analysis on news. I give my announces a politics that's on the politics these two parties is not going to change. Anything in Washington."
" All right Bob thank you very time Henry thanks to you as well one -- he has yet to the Atlanta and he didn't -- we'll talk before them that he accidentally have a good Monday okay 22 minutes before the hour now if you want to know more about the tea party move and others what's happening near you. -- web site.
