Final Update: Tea Party Guide for Wednesday

Tax Day Tea Parties - April 15, 2009

THIS WEDNESDAY: HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS TO TURN OUT FOR GIANT TEA PARTY PROTESTS! This Wednesday is the big day - the April 15th Tea Parties to protest the uncontrolled government spending, bailouts, higher taxes and socialistic policies of President Obama and the Congress. Read through this complete guide for all the latest updates.  If you scroll down you'll see we've added brand new details on the Tea Parties taking place in Sacramento, CA; Louisville, KY; Vacaville, CA; and San Jose, CA. USA FLAGS NEEDED AT EACH EVENT! Event organizers for a number of the Tea Parties are asking supporters to please bring American Flags.  If you can bring some extra small flags to hand out to others in the crowd, please do so.  Your help is very much appreciated!

"American Tea Party Anthem" Listen to the official anthem of the Tax Day Tea Parties, "American Tea Party Anthem" written, produced and sung by Lloyd Marcus (who is also a spokesperson for the Our Country Deserves Better Committee).

LISTEN TO "A BAILOUT SONG"

Have you heard "A Bailout Song" - if not take a moment to give it a listen.  It's brought to you by the same talented folks of Rivoli Revue (of "Press One for English" Fame).

NEW VIDEO: "TAX AND SPEND"

We wanted to share with you a brand-new video, "Tax And Spend," that is spreading like wildfire across the Internet.  It's earned 6 YouTube Honors already in the first 24 hours since it was posted.  It's an edgy video and audio production that takes on Barack Obama's "tax-and-spend" policies.  Watch it - HERE.

I plan to be at the DC rally. I will have an IPhone to take and send pictures. I am looking for a Freeper who can posted the pictures here. Would require a flickr or some such account. I could do it through my Flickr but it would take too long on the IPhone. Anyone interested? If so, freepmail me an email address I should send the photos to.

Thanks

I soooo have to toot my own horn here... I tossed out the idea of National Tea Parties back in JUNE 2003 on Free Republic!!

Not that it was an original idea or anything, I just never understood why everyone else had a higher tolerance level for taxes than I did. Apparently we had no idea just how bad it would get in the future. I’m just so glad it is finally happening!!

Don’t bother reading these, but these were my posts from 2003 where I mentioned Tea Parties:

Is DeMint going to be at the one in Simpsonville? Or is there one that is actually in the city of Greenville that I haven’t found out about yet?

the commies at media matters tried to do a hatchet job on the tea parties too, but instead are helping promote it.

Sorry, just caught this post. I’m not sure, I’ve noticed that Greenville isn’t listed on the Tax Day website, but I’ve seen two or three news articles mentioning Greenville as one of DeMint’s stops.

I take that back, SC Swamp Fox did have Greenville listed in his post to the SC ping list:

City: Greenville
When: April 15, 6:00pm
Where: BI-LO Center (outside)

However, the one point I've tried to make to people is that when you see Republican leaders embracing the Tea Parties, celebrate the fact, don't denounce it.

It's important to get the Republican Party back to standing for lower taxes, less spending and a smaller federal government. There's ALOT of work to be done on this front, I concede, but it's always good to have people moving TOWARDS you than away from you.

I certatinly agree with you there.

My concern was them attempting to co-opt the tea party events, and of course the leftist media is constantly spouting the propaganda that this was started by the GOP and Fox News.

An interesting tidbit from Michelle Malkin about the Sacramento Tea Party yesterday:

California Tea Party to California GOP: Smackdown

By Michelle Malkin  •  April 15, 2009 05:18 PM

Something hugely significant just happened here at the Sacramento Tea Party. Organizer Mark Meckler singled out GOP opportunists who wouldn’t give him the time of day weeks ago — and then wanted to hitch their wagons to the Tea Party bandwagon at the last minute.

Meckler said he heard that California GOP chair Ron Nehring was in the audience. Meckler invited him to say hi to the crowd — and then ripped him for waffling on the massive tax hike ballot measures (particularly Prop1A - $16 billion tax hikes).

Massive boos from the crowd of thousands here against the Calif. GOP establishment.

Will this make the MSM coverage? It doesn’t fit the narrative. But it’s yet another demonstration that this movement is not partisan and equal opportunity when it comes to holding politicians’ feet to the fire for fiscal irresponsibility and fecklessness.

The Sacto teaparty was a resounding sucess, thanks to you and the Our Country PAC for being a big part of that!
