These pictures were taken Friday 09/27/2009 at the Seattle Tea Party protest. There were probably 200, or so, protesters present for the lunch time rally, which is a decent sized crowd for the very liberal Seattle area, especially with such short notice. In the future I hope more Seattle area Republicans will brave the mostly liberal mass of humanity, and the hunt for affordable parking to protest the communist takeover of our government. Conservatives have got to get better at organizing, and better at gathering big crowds. The media was present at the protest, but we will have to be bigger, louder, and more organized to get the liberal media to give us more than a brief mention. Protests are fun folks. Get out there and fight for our country and our conservative values!
Thanks. I’m more worried about nationalized health care than anything Obama has planned for us. The next step is getting rid of the “useless eaters”.
I didn’t hear the “haail no”’s, but I did hear one very lame liberal walk by and shout “booooooring!!!” I’m sure his idea of a fun protest is to damage property and get carted off to jail. Of course, that might have gotten some news coverage. We’ve gotta find a middle ground somewhere to be heard I think.
I totally agree about the timing of this event. We drove around looking for parking for quite a while, walked many blocks, and then had to get back to work. I don’t know why they planned it for a lunch hour. People can’t always take lunch at noon, they don’t have time to get there, there’s no parking most of the time, and the media definitely isn’t going to cover something that only lasts an hour. If it had been a weekend we would have stayed a while and made some noise. Oh well. Hopefully, we’ll learn from these things. I hope people are contacting the organizers and letting them know.
I saw the KOMO camera, but didn’t see any report on TV from 10 to 11:15 I wonder, yet doubt, if it was covered at 5 or 6 PM. Anyone know?
Why cant they hold these on a Saturday? I would of loved to gone, but had to work. My neighbor did go, and he said there was about 300.
By the way, I need help deciding on a bumper sticker. I only want one.

(Or do you have a better idea?)
Nothing on the evening news. They did show a tiny protest at the Locks, involving planned shooting of sealions.
