That’s great. They should all be politician-free zones.

Not politician free, but no politician speakers! They should be there, to listen, not speak! Its time the PEOPLE are heard!!

Melbourne FL event organizer Carl says he got no interest from media at all. Says no media there at all. Florida Today and local TV stations where are you?

Says he sees someone with a professional looking vidcam — is checking it out.

If you’re going to a later Tea Party, please consider making a sign reminding people of the 6 billion of our tax dollars going to ACORN, the left wing radicals.

Just reported ‘thousands’ are at Austin Tea Party, Gov. Perry to speak later.

BEAUTIFUL! I can't wait to see the photos and reporting tonight.

With these tea parties taking place all over the country today, all the local media outlets will either have to report in them or risk losing credibility with their own local viewers.

Make sure he asked for credentials if he talks with them . Fox warned that left wing web sites were planning to pretend to be news agencies.

From CNN:

*snip*

“Protesters on Wednesday said like their colonial forebears, they felt that their voices were not being heard by their government.

At one protest Wednesday morning a sign read, “I read as much of the stimulus bill as my Congresswoman.” Another read, “You can’t put lipstick on socialism.”

*snip*

Liberal tea party critics aren’t buying it. They call the protests “Astroturf,” saying they aren’t real grassroots events, but are organized by old-fashioned Republican Party bosses.

(Technically speaking, the idea of government permits being required for a protest of government taxation and spending is kinda antithetical to the whole premise...)

“Hey Mare...It’s 7AM! How do you friggin’ know?”

Because DAILY KOS has been telling them what thier talking points would be FOR DAYS now.

At this moment, EVERY SINGLE Front-pager post is about the “Tea-Baggers”.

Isn’t it GREAT to see how all these Democrat Orgs are spending YOUR tax money??
