I really want to go to one - specifically the one in DC.

But at nearly 38 weeks pregnant I’m absolutely miserable right now and frankly am a bit hesitant about going in my condition if ACORN or similar groups are hoping to cause some problems.

If you are going to be interviewed by a camera crew ask to see their credentials.

Don't talk to them even if they HAVE credentials - they may edit anything you say to make it sound bad. Not all of them will, of course, but who knows which ones can be trusted? I found this out the hard way. Also, do NOT give your real name - crazies have stalked freepers based on getting personal information from news reports. Use your maiden name, your mother's maiden name, the next town over from where you actually live, anything to keep your privacy private.

The Tax Day Tea Party group in Sioux Falls, South Dakota advertised their event in their St. Patrick's Day Parade this year. Creative!

I’d especially like to see noted any NEGATIVE tv or print coverage of our events.

At approximately 7 a.m. (CT) NBC Today Show (Meredith Vierra, I think)said the Tea Parties "Aren't Catching On", and went on to say something about radio talk show hosts having to try drumming up support. Hey Mare...It's 7AM! How do you friggin' know?

And if you can’t make a tea party HAMMER your reps with faxes, emails and calls.

My boss wouldn’t give me the day off (plus I’m sick as a dog, working anyway) so that’s what I’m going to do.

I lift up a prayer for all the Tea Parties and their participants this morning.

Heavenly Father, please watch over these fine people across the USA coming together to bring attention to the heavy taxation burden being forced on our shoulders. Please send your Holy Spirit to keep the activities peaceful, to bring and show truth to all who watch. Please soften the hearts of those who wish confrontation and keep all safe. I ask that your perfect will be done on this day and that you will continue to bless this country and lead us and direct us in the way that you would have us go. In Jesus' name, Amen.

I’m going to the one in Bristol, Tennessee. I have a huge sign. Hope the rain holds off for us. What really aggravates me is the talking heads claiming that this is a highly organized GOP event. Give me a break!! I have had to seek out info about local tea parties. The liberal Democrats just can’t stand it that they have some real competiton in utilizing the 1st Amendment. They think that we’re organized now? They don’t want to see us when we really do get organized!!!

My mom said she’d carry a picture of me at the one she’s going to in Charlotte, since I’m the one who turned her onto this. At least I’ll be there in spirit through her.

My 16 year old son really wants to attend one of these, but I just can’t fit it into my schedule today and he can’t find anyone else to go with him. (He doesn’t drive yet.)
