America’s Independence Day Tea Party to Take Place in

Chicago on July 4th at Navy Pier’s Gateway Park from 12-4pm

Chicago, Il ReTeaParty.com have recently coordinated to host Tea Parties around the country on Saturday July 4th.

The America’s Independence Day Tea Party Movement is a nationwide demonstration forum for any and all groups and individuals dissatisfied with the current governance of the United States, regardless of ideology, partisan identity, or political affiliation. On July 4th, 2009, we are asking Americans everywhere to re-declare our inalienable rights to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Chicago’s Tea Party will take place this Saturday, July 4th, 2009. The event will take place from 12 Noon until 4pm in Gateway Park at Navy Pier.

The Independence Day Tea Parties are very different in nature from other tea parties taking place around the nation. The Free & Equal/ ReTea Parties are non-partisan in nature, and will feature speakers and guests from across the political spectrum.

“The Chicago Independence Day Tea Party is a fully nonpartisan event, with guests from all across the political spectrum,” said Free and Equal CEO and event organizer Christina Tobin.

Tobin added, “This will be a forum for any and all groups and individuals dissatisfied with the current governance of the United States, regardless of ideology, partisan identity, or political affiliation. While we may disagree on the solutions, on July 4th, 2009 we will come together as Americans to peacefully express our dissent from the current political status quo.”

Speakers include:

* Jim Tobin, President of National Taxpayers United, Illinois

* Paul Jacob, President of the Citizens in Charge Foundation

* Theresa Amato,author of Grand Illusion: The Myth of Voter Choice in a Two-Party Tyranny.

*Isaac Hayes, Republican Congressional Candidate

Hey, CL:

Is the ReTea Party.com the group that wants to hi-jack the teaparties for their own purposes (Fair Tax supporters)?

No,

It is a Group of Republicans, Democrats and any and every other party talking about Ballot access.

Why shouldn’t All the other groups besides conservatives be loud and proud about taking back their Government?
