I saw a report on KY3 @ 6. KOLR 10 @ 10. I think I heard KSGF radio (Beck, Hannity, Levin) was involved. http://www.ky3.com/news/local/40448917.html Have a bad cold or would have been there. I think a better idea instead of bringing tea bags would have been to bring all the IRS forms you'll file this year (blank ones) and start a bonfire!!!

I was not in attendance today, but I like your idea of burning IRS forms.

At 35 degrees w/wind if you will bring the paper to start the fire, I will bring the wood to keep it going!

Have you heard if the Ozarks great bastion of liberalism better known as The Springfield News and Loser at the tea party?

It doesn’t matter how many tea parties there are if the Republicans run another McCain or Dole...

I saw the 6 pm coverage on KY3 and it was pretty favorable. Did the paper show up to cover ?

Awesome guys! I lived in Springfield for 18 years right out by Springfield Lake over by Highland Springs CC. I love that area. There are a LOT of great conservatives down in SW Missouri. Keep it up!
