This is a nicely done video about the tea parties on April 15th...mainly pertaining to the one in San Antonio.

If enough people do protests on this day..the MSM will have to take notice or their bias will be shown.

Anyone who doesn't agree with what is happening should try to get to one of these.



Here is another great video!


Here is a link to the cities having tea parties on tax day!

Over 300 Cities Confirmed for April 15 Tea Party



The Tea Party movement has grown from 1 city on February 22 and 40 on February 27 to over 300 cities on April 15. By July 4, this could be the largest grassroots movement in US history. By election day 2010, it could be a new political party controlling Congress. Seem far fetched? The Republican Party was launched in 1854 in opposition to slavery. By 1860, it controlled the White House and Congress. Don’t underestimate the power of millions of angry people committed to a cause that is both morally and politically vital to freedom. Ours is.

There are over 300!!! tea parties happening on April 15th

THousands of people will be protesting...this is amazing.

I think it's going to be an historic day no matter what comes of it.



On March first, Stacy Mott, Michael Leahy and myself had a conversation about our goals for the Tax Day Tea Party. The February 17th “Nationwide Chicago Tea Party” took place in about 40 cities, and the estimates show around 30,000 Americans took part in the protests. We collectively decided that our goal for Tax Day would be to organize in 41+ cities and see 30,001 citizens take part. This goal has already been crushed as the latest tally of confirmed Tax Day Tea Parties is now 300 across every single state in the union. We have good intel that suggests we will have 10+ cities that exceed 5,000 in attendance, and when you add 290 more cities on top of this… well, you get the picture.

I don't think their server can handle the traffic. Tried many times and it is shockigly slow. This could be a good sign.

I noticed this too..the link is very slow. Half the time i get errors and the page won't load.

This may be bigger than i thought it would be.

It's great to see people finally getting involved!

Wow. I must say I'm pretty amazed. I remember hearing a few weeks ago, Glenn Beck saying that he was going to have a "tea party" but I hadn't heard anything more about it until the last few days. I'm glad to see Americans finally waking up. I hope that the interest stays high and that people actually proceed. I would hate for nothing to happen. I know I'd be right in there if I was in America right now.

I wonder if the sales of "Don't Tread on Me" flags are going up.

Oh i'm sure sales are going up...along with t shirts and things like that.

I have a feeling GB will show up in San Antonio for their Tea Party. He always references to the Alamo.

I'm going to try to get to one of these...unfortunately so far in Michigan the 4 that are happening are a good drive for me..and i have to work that day as well.

Hopefully one is organized that is closer to me.

I've already bought foamboard to make the signs...hopefully I can use them!

Yes go have your little tea party... again... like for the millionth time in over a year. The damage has already by the previous administration. Your 6years too late. But then again none of yall could give a damn during the last administration because at that time "socialismisms" was not in power. I see this administration as beginning the healing process. It laughable folks here are all gun trodding over their expectation of this mess that should just fix itself overnight, where it will take years regardless to recover.

Till your next thread.

SG...oh SG.

The damage has been done for quite awhile..you are definitely right about that. I didn't know that...because I was younger and didn't care much about what was happening.

I don't know how many times i have to repeat this to you as you always seem to morph me into some crazed republican Bush supporter.

My problem was that i didn't pay attention...you can beat me up all day on that.

Your problem is you don't seem to care that it's gotten far worse.

"none of yall"...what's that?

Socialismisms..haha...are you copying and pasting off of MM's posts? I"m guessing so as he's the only other person i see doing that.

You must like that one eh?

It's those gun carryin' rednecks right!

What are you arguing for anyway? Do you agree with spending more?

The same things are still happening and all you do is point fingers in the other direction and hate on those who didn't realize what was happening.

Go ahead..continue doing it...as i know it keeps the flame of hate burning inside you.

Thats your excuse for yourself and the rest of the fringers here who prefer waving their guns at the "arab middle named socialismisms" president. That doesnt cut it. The previous administration did the damage and none of yall were anywhere to be seen, that is until a liberal came into power.

Just love it how you folks make this as if it aint partisan, when the trail of threads and support back over the years points verymuch at that fact.

You dont have to be a Bush supporter to be bias. Plenty of conservatives will play the game of "im not with him, I dont like republicans" but will follow the same beliefs, same news outlets, will agree readily with em, heck mightv probably supported em once until things went down the goober. I now base my argument against you fellas on "conservative fringers" as a whole. So dont worry, you dont have to make the Bush excuse anymore.

Fringers are all the same, they spend 99% of their time bashing liberals, making excuses for how hard poor ol bush got it compared to Obama now and the only time I hear about republicans or any criticism is when there is a need to pull out an "impartiality" ploy in one of the threads. I dont buy it.


Socialismisms..haha...are you copying and pasting off of MM's posts? I"m guessing so as he's the only other person i see doing that.


Hell yea, folks waving their guns pointlessly here shouting "socialismisms" as if they gave a damn about the actual facts and issues facing this administration. I think its a great concept to use.


It's those gun carryin' rednecks right!


Yes the ones who want to go shootin' in the street causing chaos on supposed unconstitutional laws yet to happen. Would have been great to by the least have you folks join us in 2003 in a peaceful protest, but nope you folks supported that administration then, because there was no "socialismisms".


Do you agree with spending more?


I agree with investing in america. I agree to the necessary spending needed to bring our infrustructure up after years of neglect and money wasted on wars. I believe in government spending that is keeping us afloat. I know that if this administration followed calls of the minority fringe to simple "do nothing" we would be seeing way more "socialismsism" bashing threads here about him doing nothing. Its a catch 22 with you fellas as always.


Go ahead..continue doing it...as i know it keeps the flame of hate burning inside you.


Im not the one whos willing to go into the streets waving his gun aimlessly splitting the nation because faux news and the conservative blogs told you this administration will bring forth doomsday. Why dont you kill the flame and bring in some friggen logic for once.

Lol..i'm not angry...not today.

I just don't feel like getting baited into another rep/dem thing. Whether some like it or not....many people did not start paying attention to politics until this election.

The reason for that is that the outcome would be historical...a female vice president or a black president. That's what got me interested. At first i thought McCain was the better choice...but in the end i knew he wasn't the answer as he was just as dirty as the rest. Then the bailouts happened and i started to get interested in the economy and how it works.

The more i looked into it..the more that i seen where the real problem was....the federal reserve and how both parties have used it to further their agendas of war and social programs...all the while hammering the the average citizen with inflation and taxes.

Somehow i always seem to get pooled in with others who were defending Bush..when in reality I couldn't stand the man.

I'm against war..against spending..against debt. Do you see that changing? I see it escalating.

KZoo is the closest place to me, not sure if I'll be able to make it over there. But leaving it open is a great possibility, never know.

Awesome! Are you going alone or with a group?

I think some of them are going to be huge. More and more will find out about it as the date gets closer.

I think this could be far bigger than i originally thought it would be.

Kalamazoo is the closest to me as well...but it's still a good 1 1/2 drive from where i live...and i have to work that day.

I'm hoping one will pop up closer.

Still having problems with the website...must be getting a decent amount of hits. Can't get it to load at the moment.

Sadly, probably alone. I have a few that will go with me if they can get off work. Unfortunately, I live in a small town where the vast majority refuse to listen to anything the few of us say. I get called all kinds of names on our local forum and all I'm trying to do is wake these people up and keep them informed.

I love parties of all types, keg, tea, biscuit, birthday, etc...

But to me [a paranoid, conspiracy theorist] this party seems just a little to convenient, planned and staged.

Who are the organizers and are they who they say they are?

Data fishing perhaps? Just the thing the neocons would do to lazer in on the malcontents.
