Axelrod Says 'Tea Party' Protesters Are 'Wrong'
White House senior adviser David Axelrod says that the demonstrations in Washington, D.C., Saturday do not represent the views
of the broader public when it comes to health care reform.
The White House has a message to the tens of thousands of protesters who railed against big government during a rally in
Washington Saturday: You're wrong.
White House senior adviser David Axelrod said Sunday that the protesters, part
of the "tea party" movement, do not represent the views of the broader public when it comes to health care reform.
"I
don't think it's indicative of the nation's mood," Axelrod said on CBS' "Face the Nation." "You know, I don't think we ought
to be distracted by that. My message to them is, they're wrong."
Axelrod suggested Sunday
that the more over-the-top demonstrations were representative of a minority view -- the kind exhibited at some town hall meetings
over the summer.
they're not representative of the majority
