GoogleAre the Tea Party protesters a small group of radical
freakazoids or a large crew of taxpaying regular joes who are fed
up with government spending, Democrats and Republicans, and
business as usual?
Reason.tv fanned out through the crowd and the backstage of the
September 12 Taxpayer March on Washington, the controversial
anti-government protest that drew somewhere between 75,000 and 1
million people, according to press reports.
We talked with folks from all over the country and snagged
interviews with speakers and media including Sen. Jim DeMint
(R-S.C.), Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.), CNN's Jeff Greenfield, actor
Steven Baldwin, Freedom Works' Matt Kibbe, and many more.
What we found was a group of people united in their calls for less
government spending and their disgust at the Republican and
Democratic pols who made it all happen.
Interviews by Nick Gillespie, Matt Welch, and Michael C. Moynihan.
Shot and edited by Dan Hayes and Meredith Bragg. Approximately 6
minutes.
