It was a wonderful day, slightly cloudy, about 45 degrees, and with less than 4 days notice over 175 people showed up for a rally to protest against Barak Obama's economic policies.

It was a proud day, with Freepers Biggirl, Libertarian27, Myself and others present during their lunch hours, proudly in front of the state capital

Members of GOE were there, also, seeing Skip fro Connecticut also.

Most of the faces were people who never did any sort of this ever before, and they are MAD AS HELL, And they ARENT going to take it anymore!

Pictures to follow and a link to video coming, also.

It’s NOT your Money!

Reward personal success, not personal failure!

Hands out of our pockets!

No Obama-Nomics!

So, what exactly is going to be different in your life now?

Aside from comic relief, what purpose do these protests serve?

It’s good to know that there are a lot of normal, clear-thinking people left in the USA. We need rallies in every state capital to show that we’ve had it!

What a GREAT RALLY!!!

On very short notice and on a weekday we had tremendous attendance.

Lots of honking horns in agreement with our signs.

[Should have Channel 3CBS coverage tonight!]

Radical Conservative Protest at it’s Finest!

Booyah!

To quote Larry the Plumber (local Palin rally back during the election),

“Mr. Obama, get yer dirty, stinking gubmint hands OUTTA MY WALLET!”

Race ——So good to hear how mad people are -— enough to go out and do something they never dreamed they would. May their tribes increase!

Looking forward to the pics.

I was planning to go but I woke up to find that my alternator belt was gone on my car. I spent most of the day on that.

Good on you FReepers!!!!!

Obama told his storm troopers to “get in their face”.

Thanks o or zero, WE are... getting in your face!

I have read a lot of the threads about the wonderful turnout
and enthusiasm for the tea parties, but has the MSM reported
on even ONE of them? I’ll nearly bet not!

Good going all you people who were lucky enough to have one
close enough to attend! God bless you all!
