I’m coming to DC from Kalamazoo, MI. On a charter bus with a bunch of Tea Party folk that I don’t know.
We are only in DC the day of Sept 12.

Could I hook up with the FR group?

If you are any where around these towns, you can come to Tea Party Rallies a few days before the big event in DC on the 12th

Jackson, MI - 12:00 noon

Brighton, MI - 3:30pm

Troy, MI - 6:30pm

Here is the route web page from the Tea Party Express website.

What hours are you going to be in DC? I'm sure you can hook up with other free republic people.

I am sure you will be able to hook up with our Freeper group! :)

As time draws near there will be details about how FReepers will be able to access by cell/blackberries up to date information about where FReepers will be gathering.

Going with 3 people will be there indeed...however...I am getting concerned hearing of numbers around 60k will be there. Now, 60k is a fine showing for just about any event....but I can’t imagine a reason why with months and months advance notice we can’t manage in this country to pull together 500k-1 million in our nation’s capitol on a Saturday in September. Every person who is a conservative, republican, libertarian, or independent within a 6-7 hour driving range of D.C. should be making travel arrangements as we speak.

I am coming with 3 from Florida and the 60k estimate is bothersome.

I agree, but really not sure how accurate that estimate really is. It remains to be seen just how many patriots show up in DC on 9/12.

I also believe that when more details come out about various events and folks hear about the speakers taking part
during the weekend events, more folks will make their plans to attend.

Perhaps when Polluting Nancy gets the votes she wants for the disastrous government health care bill, folks will be mad enough to make sure they get to DC for 9/12!
