Wisconsin Dells - Republicans and conservative tea party members railed against health care reform, global warming legislation and government spending at a convention Saturday that attracted about 2,000 people.
The meeting, organized by the conservative group Americans for Prosperity and dubbed an unofficial tea party convention, brought together numerous Republican officeholders, party leaders and candidates in addition to national speakers like "Joe the Plumber" and Michael Reagan, the son of former President Ronald Reagan.
Speakers said they were defending America's freedoms by opposing cap-and-trade energy proposals, tax increases, health care reform and economic stimulus bills backed by Democrats.
"We are not the party of no," said Tim Nerenz, a Libertarian candidate for Wisconsin's 2nd Congressional District, which covers Madison. "We are the party of hell, no. Do you want to give them your money? Hell, no! Do you want to give them your gun? Hell, no! Do you want to give them your health care?"
The crowd, picking up the chant, yelled, "Hell, no!"
Anti-tax activist Grover Norquist said seeing Republicans vote for tax increases was like finding a rat head in a soft drink can.
"They damage the brand for everyone else," he said.
The meeting came roughly a year after the first tea party rallies in the state and nationwide. Wisconsin tea party organizers say they have no interest in starting a third political party and instead want to work closely with Republicans.
Wisconsin Republican Party Chairman Reince Priebus thanked convention attendees for giving GOP candidates a chance to rebuild the party.
No Democratic officeholders or candidates spoke at the meeting or had booths, while there were numerous Republicans.
And Power was given unto them over the
fourth part of the earth, to kill with the sword,
and with hunger, and with death,
and with the beasts of the earth.

Geographically very interesting; The people seemed to be as interesting as the area.
God Bless Them!
Revelation 13:13
GOP needs to “rebuild” by dumping RINOs like Juan McCain, Graham-nesty and those who suuport them: Newt (POS who FU NY-23), Mitt, Pawlenty, Flake, Kyl, Huckelbie, Crist, Fred (sad) and Sarah (sad).
Isn’t Goober Norquist pro-amnesty like Juan McCain? Sort of like finding a rats head in your conservative soda.
lol
There. Fixed it.
My guess is that there were more than 2,000 people there.
Holy s**t! I knew Gomer Norquist was an idiot but his libertarianism sounds like he is a jihadist wannabe. Nice to see Pam Geller tearing him a new orifice. I like Pam - she is the real deal.
I thought he was just pro-illegal alien phony .
Gee another friend of Juan McCain, Graham-nesty, Mitt et al. Freaking cross-dressing RINOs trying to pretend they are conservatives.
Give Goober Norquist a rat’s head for his “conservative soda.”
These RINO frauds show up at Tea Parties and they are parasites.
No Water Park when I was there.
Didn't need one.
Just some great meals, beers, and conversations with the locals who seem SO typically American.
A rubber tomahawk.

Code Red” - House Target List on Health Care
The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Thursday, March 18th.

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.
At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.
When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!
We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE!

Here we go again. And people tell me the Tea Party is not a libertarian movement. Oh no, it's conservative. Hah.
And then you have Grover Norquist, an Arabist and open borders guy, another typical libertarian. No, thank you.
Sounds like an overwhelming success.
