BIG FAIL. St. Louis Libs Hold Coffee Party – 30 People Show Up
Posted by Jim Hoft on Saturday, March 13, 2010, 12:41 PM
On Wednesday morning, 2,225 patriots turned out at the “Kill the Bill” rally in St. Charles, Missouri.
They were expecting 600…… But, 2,225 turned out.
An overflow crowd turned out Wednesday at 9:45 AM to attend the “Kill the Bill” rally in St. Charles, MO.
On Wednesday night, 2,300 patriots turned out to protest Barack Obama, the Carnahans, and liberal Senator Claire McCaskill at their fundraiser in downtown St. Louis.
It was a huge turnout in St. Louis. 2,000 to 2,500 turned out in St. Louis to protest Obamacare.
Today, local liberals held their second Coffee Party to push for more socialism.
30 people turned out… Including the people who were already at the restaurant and the tea party infiltrators.
More… Major Kong added this:
I wonder if they got time and a half, this being a Saturday? Oh, and I’m sure their expenses were reimbursed, too.
Hah!
UPDATE: North Carolina had 5 people show up.

We were yelling at the green hat people that their hats were made of plastic and probably in China.
I think it was Jim H. said that the obamas were bused in from Chicago on chartered buses. (again)
At the taxpayers expense, I’m sure.

They prefer to be called “Obots”.

Ya know, infiltrating Coffee Party meetings could be a fun way to spend a day. But be warned, socialist leftminded people are often respond with violence. In other words, be careful.

30 coffeebaggers…29 more than needed to make the front page of the NYT/Time/Newsweek/etc.

Thanks for the correction, I was just trying to be too nice.
Let’s all watch for another sucker punch on the amnesty bill.

I wonder if the Coffee Party was expecting 600 attendees also.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!
What a bunch of fools. These are probably the only people in St. Louis who still read the Organizing for America emails. Many other folks I see on the web roll their eyes and hit DELETE.
Reuel Sample commented:
The conservative movement keeps rolling on in the face of incredible obstinacy from those in Washington, DC. If this bill gets defeated, it will surely show that the sleeping giant of freedom has finally awakened. If it passes, the methodology of doing so will surely thrash our republic almost beyond repair.

Here are some pics from Coffee Parties that happened today… whole lotta old white folks! (well, not a lot, because five in a group is not a “lot” but the ones that are there, are.) They must be RACIST!!

From Coffee Party FB:
Nathan Penrose Raleigh,
NC Coffee Party meeting was really great. over 30 people easy and I think 2
News Stations. A lot of fun and really awesome people.
Are they kidding!? Two news stations covered this?
And just for fun:
Carol Harda Tea Baggers: Wake up and smell the Coffee! This makes a whole Latte sense!
And one comment later:
Dennis Caravantes Be American, drink coffee! Thanks for giving us a forum for “civility, honesty, respect, and accountability”…I like. No shouting or calling names sounds good to me.
Nothing more civil than calling people “teabaggers” …

And that was a great point Sarainitaly. I didn’t see one black person.

Where’s SEIU when you need them, coffee dunkers?
AnnS commented:
Oh well, at least it’s green coffee, (Not made in America) not like the green plastic (Made in China?)helmets they wear:
Cartago Irazú Estate beans are:
•Shade grown, to sustain the natural Costa Rican ecosystem, protecting the migratory homes of birds and acting as a natural defense against erosion.
•Sun-dried, not chemically processed, to preserve the flavor and moisture inside the bean.
•Hand selected, for quality, before being packed and shipped fresh to our high altitude roastery in Colorado.
•Read more about the history of Mulligan’s Coffee and the source of our Irazú Estate coffee beans.

i would not call this a failure at ALL.

Well of course, it’s obvious that in the Coffee Party the Dimocrats are going for quality over the lumpen-proletariat Tea Party. All proper thinking people know that the inhabitants of fly over country are rubes and yahoos, unlike the cultured elite. However what might scare them if they have any clue is the fact that quantity has a quality all it’s own. See you in November.
I really think you must see

Please don’t be alarmed

Amanda, you DO know the difference between astroturfing and grassroots, right?
sarainitaly commented:
Amanda – no, the tea parties had far more than 30 people, even before they were full fledged tea parties. This was a tea party/porkulus bill protest on Feb 16, 2009. They also had WAY better signs! ;O)

Q: What do you do with coffee grounds?
A: Put them in the compost and back to the dirt.

With so few people showing up to these silly things, I wonder, ‘How can so few people have pushed their agenda on us over the years?’

Dan Lear commented:
Well, we had 73, not 30, and we would have loved to have talked with you. We are glad you were active on behalf of your convictions in St. Charles, and we encourage ALL citizens to be peacefully active as well. We let all of our attendees know that those who are affiliated with the Tea Party object to the name “teabagger” because of its very negative (albeit obscure) meaning, and there are at least 73 St. Louisans who will no longer use that term. We really would like to have you attend our meet on March 24; we want to find the common ground we share with you.
KR commented:
This Coffee Party saying they want to join up with the Tea Party and see what we have in common is just Axelrod admitting that they (Pelosi, msm et al) messed up big time by continually insulting us, misrepresenting who we are and what we stand for.
This Coffee Party is just an astroturf scheme to cover over the damage done.

——-
A beginning of what? Another attempt of the “dictatorship of the proletariat”? Another RAF? More left wing terror? Look at history. Left wing terror extremely outweighs right wing terror. That’s a simple fact.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the wannabe-elite, pseudo-intellectual, neo-communist “Coffee Party” would go down the lane of the “Rote Armee Fraktion” from Germany.
Anything is possible with someone who worships an ideology that murdered more than 120 million people in the 20th century.
The CP joining up with the TP and looking what they have in common is like Hitler meeting up with Churchill to see what they have in common.
Besides, the CP people aren’t as smart as they think they are, because apparently the whole historic background of “tea party” is completely lost to them. There has never been a “coffee party”, well, maybe in the British HQ during the American Revolution (only to have their sophisticated butts kicked later.) As for the Americans, they don’t drink tea at tea parties, duh.
megapotamus commented:
What is most important to remember is how vilified and minimized the TEA movement was just a month or two ago, and now Pelosi sez, Hey, I’m a TEA head, too! And this nauseating Copy Party that now goes in for me-tooism appealing to “civility” that they neither practice nor respect. Forget civility. Like all practices of human society it must be based on reciprocity. Did W get any civility? Not an ounce. Reagan likewise. The Left has no claim to civility. You owe them none. Let’s see some Obama effigies burned and some giant puppets with Hitler moustaches on Gibbs and Emanuel. This is the sort of civility these squealing pigs were practicing two years ago. Give it back with interest. Compound interest.

Dan, Dan, Dan….the tea parties ARE peaceful. There has never been any violence at them – well except for when an SEIU thug attacked a tea partier, and beat him up (Kenneth Gladney) and the other time some opponent attacked a tea partier and bit his finger off.
People at tea parties sometimes yelled because they have been attacked and smeared and ignored. Including the Coffee Party people.
The Tea Party people have been doing this for a year now, and ya’ll were quite welcome to attend tea parties. Why don’t the coffee people go to meet the tea people, instead of insulting them, and forming your own copy cat group, led by Obamabots who chant O’Bama, O’Bama….
Sorry to be a pessimist but I don’t think your intentions are to find common ground, I think your intentions are to squelch the opposition.
This is what you wrote on FB: Dan Lear I ask only that we maintain civility. The Tea Party is dangerous and their rhetoric is inaccurate and hateful. If this is different, I’m in. Show hateful or cultish stripes, and I’m out!
Yea… you’re not a hater.

You’d think they could get more coffee klatch or coffee party or. . . whatever morons to show up
first of all – most of the unemployed are libs in favor of governement doing everything, so where were they?
Secondly – there has to be a few buses full of SEIU dipsh**s driving around in circles that were lost and unable to find the address
Finally – aren’t there some professors from the local university that could have shown up or promised bonus points for their Poli-Sci or Law students to show up at the coffee party?
idiots, can’t even counter-protest correctly…
