Are you going to this event? Are there any FReepers out in that part of the world?

I'd like to see an "After Action Report" from this, with some pictures.

I was going to go, but a family emergency came up and I couldn't get away.

Two of the organizers were at the Napa Tea Party Express tea party to kick off the TPX tour that ended in Tampa for the Republican Presidential Candidate Debate on Sept 12.

And last year Pat Boone spoke at a TPX tour tea party in Los Angeles.

Oh and yes there are a bunch of FR people in So Cal.

RonDog, you going?

I just came back. I didn't take a camera or stay for the whole event (my lower back was killing me) but I was there for Hugh Hewitt, Tom McClintock, Wayne Perryman, Ben Shapiro, Sonja Schmidt, and Congressman McCotter. I left while Dick Patten was speaking (he was doing great, just like I said, my back hurt.) Good turn-out, probably 300 people, cars going buy honked and people waved, I didn't see any unpleasantness.

The Patrick Henry speech was awesome. Pat Boone sang (I could have done without that, but I just don't like to be sung to.) Ben Shapiro was GREAT, he has this rapid-fire delivery that really snaps you awake. (And he's such a cutie!) That McCotter fellow was the best speaker. He has a Presidential Radio voice that is both soothing and sonorous, beautiful enunciated although a little sing-song, and if he ever gets on the national radar in a serious way, comedians will have great, great fun imitating him.

I'm curious who the fellow in the crowd was that had the big yellow Don't Tread On Me flag draped around him. Hat and sunglasses. Just had "FREEPER" written all over him. LOL...

Here is Pat Boone with some hot blonde, I don't know what her name is.
