Hi Everyone!
Over 1200 people braved 100 degree heat as we
re-declared our freedom at the Defend and Declare Tea Party last Friday in
If Bobby Scott is your Rep, please send him the list of things we want cut,
beginning with his automatic pay raise. He made a was
a foolish comment, not because he doesn't know, but that he doesn't care.
Well Yes, We CARE and NO HE CAN'T!
Many, many
thanks to the donors and volunteers who made it possible. The sound was
excellent. Everyone seemed to enjoy the band "Electric Current" whose
lead singer is 12 years old. Ed Kelleher played a set too.
The "send-a-message" johns were a hit, and a few people took out
their rage at Cap and Trade (many of us made several calls during the Tea
Party) at the egg throw.
We are planning a rally against Obama-care- which
does not need to be modified- it needs to be completely off the table. Stay
tuned. We'll let you know as soon as we get that planned.
Our next big Tea Party is in
We fixed the ordering on the site- and extended the early bird special for the
bus- $40 per person round trip. Hotel info is on the site, too. If you want to
drive, that's fine- but think about it- traffic will be horrible, and the metro
will be quite crowded. We think that over 250,000 angry taxpayers will be in
attendance- and hopefully it will be as high as 1,000,000. We are planning
stops in
We got a fabulous deal at the Hilton Alexandria Mark - they made a mistake, and
agreed to honor the price of $79/room up to two people. If you are not taking
the bus with us, that price is good for a day before, and a day after the
event. Details are on our site.
Enjoy the 4th with your family. Remember what
Get Seen- Get Educated- Get Activated! Karen Miner Hurd
