Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I’m sure most of you are aware of Tax Day Tea Parties that will be occurring nationwide on April 15th. If you aren’t sure where yours is or are interested in hosting one check here.

Orlando hosted a Saturday Tea Party and Police said it reached approximately 4,200 protesters. What were they protesting? Well here are their signs:

“Repeal the Pork or our Bacon is Cooked”
“Obama Lied, Liberty Died”
“The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money”
“You can’t blame Bush anymore”
“Have Shovel, Where’s Bridge?”

They had a number of speakers covering the obvious topics, socialism, the economy, and the Bush/Obama failouts, er, bailouts that is. What really excites me about these pre-tax day tea parties is that the protestors have a purpose. One of the attendees was quoted in the Orlando Sentinel saying,

“The goal was to get people united, to let people know that they aren’t alone in their feelings on despair,”[...]“We want to speak out against the push toward socialization that we feel is taking place in our country.”

This is how America feels. Can this be ignored? No matter what the donkey bloggers say. Despite the tingling feelings Keith Olbermann & Chris Matthews get. No matter what, our country will be taken back. Government was made by the people and will be taken back by the people. You can’t stop us. This conservative grass roots movement is one that will mark history. It’s not about Democrats & Republicans. I am neither. I am American. I am conservative. I believe in something more than just Bush’s erratic spending habits and Obama’s Chicago style politics, and I think you do too. Let’s not let them be more of the same and show up to the nearest Tax Day Tea Party near you.
