Live now on Fox -- White House is blocking TEA Party set for the Treasury in DC,. despite the demonstration already having been granted a permit. Second TEA Party at Lafayette Park to proceed, but White House blocked the unloading of 1M tea bags.
This comes upon the DHS report warning that such demonstrations are "hate groups" that must be monitored closely as such demonstrators are "prone to owning guns and being violent."

Last night my my flying group heard a speaker who said that DHS is putting on place a plan to shut-down all general aviation in the US with such onerous and burdensome regulations that no operators will be able to conduct flying. Reportedly, new rules will ban any private pilot from demonstrating how to fly to any passengers. Insanity.

They're getting worried. Good. Government is supposed to fear the people. Sadly, vise versa has been the case for too long

What are they going to do if 20-30,000 people show up anyway? Arrest them all for being ‘extremists’?

"White House is blocking TEA Party set for the Treasury in DC,. despite the demonstration already having been granted a permit." Geithner has to get get to the Post Office after work tonight. This is just to make sure the roads aren't blocked.

So, the people’s right to FREELY AND PEACEFULLY ASSEMBLE UNDER THE US CONSTITUTION IS BEING DENIED BY THE BOLSHEVIK IN THE KREMLIN in D.C., I see.

The more citizens are denied their freedom of speech, the more likely there will actually be some hate groups established.
I am beginning to hate what I am seeing happen to America. Does that constitute hate speech? So be it.

I am a mile or so away and am going in about one hour. Nothing will stop me.
The two sites are very very close to each other. I suspect they anticipated a decent size crowd and so obtained permits for two sites. Am wearing my old red “Free Republic Events Staff” baseball cap from the glory days of algore vs. W rallies!
Hoo Hah!
