I think that was done by a deal with the GOP controlled Congress. They didn't end it as much as remake into another program. The new program focused on getting people to work and limited benefits to something like 5yrs. Don't ask me what the new program's called, I can't remember.

I'd be willing to bet the vast majority of the teabaggers are going to pay less taxes under Obama then they did with Bush Jr.
I also think many of them should look up the definition of fascist. I could understand them calling Obama a socialist, but his proposals don't fit what I understand to be fascism at all. I'd argue Bush Jr. was much closer to a fascist then Obama.
All the interviews I saw seemed to have people protesting all kinds of stuff but mainly just their dislike for Obama.
