Ahhhh, but how quickly will the "voice" fade?

The real impact will not be today...or tomorrow. The msm will make light of this "event" a month from now...two months from now, it will have been largely forgotten.

Remember: you heard it here first.

“Well, who watches CNN?”

I had CNN disconnected 3 years ago and I have never been sorry.

I am ready for a new party. I have never been a liberal and I don't want to vote for a candidate that carries water for liberals. The GOP in Congress act like they all wear petticoats. I am completely fed up and ready to join a new party that will vow to not be political.

Sounds like a dream!!!

Hedgecock seeks popular uprising (Just give me one minute to get ready - wink)
World Net Daily ^ | 4-14-09
Posted on April 15, 2009 1:23:01 PM PDT by puffer

Talk radio host and WND columnist Roger Hedgecock says the Department of Homeland Security report he unveiled should cause more than alarm for Americans.

“This kind of intimidation is so un-American,” he said. “I’m hoping people will rise up against it.”

He was interviewed today about his report by Greg Corombos of Radio America/WND.

This is about the taxpaying 47% of the population responding to the other 53% who voted themselves a raise at the taxpayer’s expense.

According to this a.m. CNBC, obozo gave a press conference in response to the “Tea Parties” amassed across the country. This tells me the RATS especially obozo attempting damage control.

Yes, it’s about taxes, and the continuous tax proposals and the spending of money we don’t have and shouldering the next 2 or 3 generations with terrible burden of debt....

I just returned from participating in a Flemington, NJ, Tea Party. Time: Noon to 2PM. It’s about a 2-hr. drive from my house. When I left it was raining hard and steady. I didn’t have a high expectation that many would show up at the protest.

Needless to say, despite the rain and occasional sleet, I was pleased to see about 500 people there. It was right in front of the Hunterdon County Seat. The organizer brought a portable amp system along which he powered from his car.

Amplification was marginal, but various people spoke spontaneously. Everyone who spoke made thoughtful points and there was little or no Onada bashing. Mainly stayed focused on high taxes and voting all incumbents out regardless of party affiliation. The opinion of the crowd was that Republicans as well as Democrats contributed to putting us in the sorry place we’re in.

There was a police presense, but it was minimal (I saw three officers). Many people in vehicles went by blowing their horns and showing thumbs up in support. I was also surprised to see a range of age groups there. Discounting the kiddies, there were teens through old retired guys like me. I was especially surprised to see quite a number of working age men and women. Preponderance of crowd was white with one asian that I saw. Flemington and Hunterdon County are well-to-do entities. Do not have large black or hispanic populations. But, still, there are no doubt wealthy blacks who live there. Apparently they chose to sit things out. Such a shame.

I thought the organizer’s non-partisan theme was brilliant. It leap frogs over dem vs pubbie and emphasizes common economic and political concerns. That is the way to defeat both the demrat hardline leftists and RINOs who aid and abet them.

Some photos of a Small Town, USA Tea Party.

I expected 50 at the max and instead, about 500-600 showed up.

“Everyone who spoke made thoughtful points...”

Yes, that’s what I thought today to at our Small Town, USA rally.

People like you who are willing to go out of their way, in bad weather to make your voice heard is what makes America great.

Thank you.

“EDITORIAL: A brewing tax revolt”

By | Wednesday, April 15, 2009

SNIPPET: “Today is tax day, and across America, taxpayers are holding tea parties to protest out-of-control government spending. Their concern is no tempest in a teapot.

The tax burden on American families is growing increasingly heavy.”
