TAX DAY REVOLT- Washington DC 2010
Looking at the Left ^ | 4/15/2010 | El Marco

The Tea Party Express, which started its journey in Senator Harry Reid’s hometown – Searchlight, Nevada – finished its tour of 43 cities today. Thousands from across the country gathered at 10 a.m. to hear speakers and musicians, and to show their displeasure with big corrupted government. This was the first of two mega-rallies in the capital, with the second at 4 p.m. Many signs ridiculed the biased and discredited MSM and political leaders who have been attacking and slandering the tea-party movement for over a year now.

El Marco is a photojournalist from Denver who traveled to DC to attend this week's tea parties. His photos are exceptional and I think you'll really enjoy them.

He also has video of some of the speakers from the DC event (Michelle Bachman, Dick Armey, Lord Monckton, Deneen Borelli, etc.)

Is the Tea party on taxes just schick or are they really paying more in taxes under Obama for the same income? Check your tax return.

To me it seems that Tea Partiers are using the word "tax" as shorthand for the balooning US government, bloated budget and exploding deficit.

Because it's more about fiscal restraint.

Besides, it fits better on the sign. ;^D

Polls are polls, I know - but a recent CBS poll of Tea Partiers showed this: Taxfair1
