For_Immediate_Release:
United States of America (Press Release) April 29, 2009 -- New York, New York April 29th, 2009 - The National Leadership Team of the Nationwide Tea Party Coalition (http://www.nationwideteapartycoalition.com) today accepted President Obama's invitation "to have a serious conversation about how we are going to cut our health care costs down over the long term, how we are going to stabilize Social Security. The invitation was extended by the President at a Town Hall Meeting held in Arnold, Missouri today (http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0409/21870.html).
Michael Patrick Leahy, a member of the National Leadership Team of the Nationwide Tea Party Coalition, said "We want to broaden the scope to address the President's runaway march to socialist-statism, and the rampant across the board irresponsible spending he is promoting with his $787 Billion Stimulus Plan and his $1 Trillion Annual Deficit, his takeover of General Motors, Chrysler and the Banks".
Kellen Giuda, organizer of the New York City C Tea party attended by 12,000 and of Parcbench (http://www.parcbench.com) said, I think a constructive dialogue with the President would be a great opportunity for him to acknowledge that, yes, many Americans have a problem with the way Washington is handling our taxpayer dollars and also that we are concerned about health care and social security reform. I am happy he is open to a discussion. The Tea Parties are protesting against fiscal irresponsibility and any dialogue we can have will hopefully bring a better public understanding of our country's finances. Health care and social security reform is a large concern to us." source: FPR
The National Leadership Team of the Nationwide Tea Party Coalition includes 25 of the more than 900 local organizers of the April 15, 2009 Tax Day Tea Parties held across the country, which were attended by more than 1 million Americans.

WOW, we had 5000 in Hartford, and Dallas only got 5000???
It will be like a visit to Berchtesgaden..
Add on to that a 3.7 trillion dollar budget for next year.
THIS should be interesting.....marking for later.
Who made these guys “in charge of the Tea Parties” anyway? It is strictly grass roots, boys...STFU about being the “leaders” of people who dont’t need them...let’s all just show up really p*ssed on July 4th in DC...about 3-4 million of us...we won’t need leaders...
......and then do exactly as he pleases!!!!!
H E L L O O O O O O O O O O
I don't think they understand what they are dealing with
There will be about as much “dialogue” as obama willl give pro-lifer Catholics at Notre dame
To all Tea Party leaders,
Do not legitimize Pres. Obama by meeting with him.
Yep. The SS will greet him at the gate.
Perfect! Bullys hate it when you call their bluff.
we heard these stories before
Obama has a talent of listening to ppl and making them feel that he’s listening to them, but then reject everything that was said once they leave the door
Will they be gathered together and placed in concentration camp?
Already posted with lots of discussion at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2240645/posts
If this meeting actually takes place I hope at least on of them asks him where the government gets the OK to step so far out of the bounds of the Constitution.
Even worse, one of the so-called LEADERS will turn out to be a tin-foil hat wearing fruitcake and the MSM will have a field day. KEEP OUR TEA PARTIES GRASS ROOTS!
Oblahblah used this same trick during the campaign and when McCain took him up on it and suggested 10 townhall meetings, Oblahblah said his schedule was booked.
He’s just pandering. He’ll never meet with this group. He doesn’t have enough respect for them. In fact, he has more respect for the leaders of countries that sponsor terrorism. He’d much rather talk to them.
Why am I reminded of when the police send out “you’ve won!” invites and then it turns out to be a big round up of those with outstanding warrants?
