EPIC Chicago Tea Party Protest Video Up!!! Keep the Passion Alive!!!

Thoughts From A Texan ^ | March 1st, 2009 | Joseph "Tex" Dozier

[TexCon]

As y'all know, countless citizens gathered the other day (500 in Chicago) to form local "tea parties" in protest of government's recent, egregious actions when dealing with the economy and wasting our tax dollars. However, most media outlets just ignored this massive movement across the nation.

I had the honor of speaking at the Chicago Tea Party, posted the speech, and also made a general video about the event I wanted to share with you.

Feel free to link this up to your own blog and share with friends. We have to keep the passion alive! More tea parties to come! -Joseph "Tex" Dozier www.twitter.com/JosephTexDozier www.texdozier.com

[Madame Dufarge]

Excellent! bumpity

[Prov3456]

No offense, but is there a way to remove the music from the video? I can’t understand the speakers because the music is playing too loud.

[TaxRelief]

Perhaps, two videos: one with the music, one without?

[wastedyears]

Incredible

[wastedyears]

We’re not gonna take it

No, we ain’t gonna take it

We’re not gonna take it, anymoooooooooooooooore!!

I loved the video AND the music. Cranked it up : )

[SweetCaroline]

Certainly obamasama, botox Nancy and cry baby harry reid know these tea parties are going on why no comments??????

We had our own little tea party here in Davenport, Iowa yesterday.

I heard a figure of 200 showed up. I would guess it more between 100 to 150. We got a lot of attention though!

Our state district senator came by and talked to us. He didn't even know the rally was planned. He happened to see it as he was driving by from another speaking event.

There are a lot of pissed off people out there, and I think there are going to be even more as Obama continues implementation of his socialist takeover of the United States.

[TonyM]

I wished there was an organized effort to have these events in every small town in America and to have them adequately advertised in advance.

[CRBDeuce]

You must not have selected your state forum in your Account settings...most states have something at the header.

[GVnana]

Awesome video! (And I NEVER use the word "awesome.")

Excellent protest. Coherent and coordinated message. Model for others to follow.

See you all April 15th!

[BubbaJunebug]

Start showing up with clubs, pitchforks, axes and maybe they might take notice. Until then the media and Obama will kindly ignore it all until all the protesters get bored and go away. They have no fear of us.

[GVnana]

Actually, we got a lot of advanced coverage from KFBK News Radio, Sacramento and made the evening news on the local ABC affiliate.

I don't what Obama is afraid of, and I don't much care. But we sure got a lot of car horns honking and thumbs up from people who agreed with our message.

Beats sitting home alone thinking the world is against you.

[ncweaver]

AWESOME definitely sums up the video!! There are so many other like-minded Americans out there and I'm lovin’ it!! Love the music with the speeches...adds drama.

[Just A Nobody]

why no comments??????

The same strategy they have used for the last 8 years;
ignore it/him and it does not exist.

More importantly than the Rats you named, why are no republicans commenting???

[freema]

I guess your state senator got an earful, eh?! : )

[2111USMC]

Yes he did.

He quickly got smart and started attacking our Dem governor and talking about everything they've been doing to try to block his nonsense.

He seemed genuinely surprised and impressed by the number of us protesting. Maybe these tea parties are being noticed!

3 rules for Future Tea Parties

PLEASE try to hold them on weekends, to maximaize attendance.

Please schedule and publicize well in advance, so people can make plans.

Please get press kits out to all media.

[oiler]

Awesome video!!!

I have watched and re-watched Braveheart and The Patriot.
Say what you will of Mel Gibson.... some of the best speeches
about Freedom I’ve heard.

[cfrels]

Hey Tex, GREAT JOB on video!

I was there, froze, your video brought tears to my eyes....we must prevail....I don't recognize my country anymore.

[PA-RIVER]

We need a patriots march down Pennsyvania Avenue.

I am so disgusted with this smug arrogant punk.

[SweetCaroline]

More importantly than the Rats you named, why are no republicans commenting???

.....I get the feeling they are still RINOS and Steele is the biggest RINO!

[Cheerio]

Please get press kits out to all media.

VERY VERY important IMHO. Conservatives are up against a DNC biased media. It was Matthews: My Job Is To Make Obama Presidency a Success

As Sean says daily, 2008 was the year journalism died - they will no longer ever attack this President for anything - to a journalist this Dali Bama is too big to fail - he must be given all the support they can muster even to the point of telling us lies and calling it "NEWS".

[Paul R.]

At least Rush mentioned the Tea Parties in his CPAC address.

Incidentally, there is an excellent YouTube video, from Glenn Beck’s show, regarding the history of housing prices, and why the gov’t propping them up is futile. It seems like information that needs more exposure - maybe a new thread should be started on it??? I didn’t find anything when I searched for it here (FR).

THAT was excellent!!! THANKS!!!

[Brad's Gramma]

What was the link on there?

dontgo....com

???

[joygrace]

Thank you. This was well worth the viewing. No more bailouts, no more stealing from the American people.

Congress and the Executive branch are both ignorant and reckless.

Dumping tea into the harbor will get you an EPA citation these days!
