LOL! Kudos to the attendees in Palatine!
Congratulations, it sounds as though you all had a good time. I’m not sure how many we had in Bellingham, WA, couple of thousand, anyway. We have a lot going on locally, here, so it brings out the county people, but the fourth is a difficult day to get people together for something like this.
I read something on National Review that hit home for me. They said that Tea Parties were all fine and good for bringing people together and reassurance that we aren’t alone, but if we do not follow up with attendance at local county council meetings and federal congress meet and greets we won’t accomplish anything. So, get out there and go to meetings and let the politicians know that we are serious and that we are not going to go away.

Happy 4th! Thanks for post!
