promise to culminate on Tax Day, April 15

April 15th isn't the culmination. It is only one step of a growing grassroots movement to take back the country.

Already way ahead of you. So is everyone else that is dumping their stocks, excessive expenses, employees, subscriptions to mainstream media (I dont have cable anymore), reductions in business advertising, new hires, expansion, etc. The government can tell me how much of my money belongs to them, but they cannot tell me how much income I will choose to generate in the future. What happens when the federal government discovers (soon) that they are just as broke and insolvent as everyone else is? How does a foreign government "foreclose" on the debt we have incurred already upon which the interest cannot even be serviced? Time to get out of debt fast and buy gold.

" Wouldn’t it be great if someone could grab the reins and organize all these people into a new Party to replace the dying GOP? "

Gee... THAT'S a novel idea. :)

Sent Glenn Beck a suggestion last night, to call for a July 4th nationwide candlelight demo. Rather than celebrate what we have always had, we should demonstrate to the WORLD that we will not let it (our freedom) be taken away!

Candles lit everywhere! Homes, Businesses, Farms, front lawns,everywhere a candle can be displayed. We are mourning the oncoming dictatorship and our loss of FREEDOM!
People who cannot get to tea partys can now participate.
Watch the reaction. American Candle Party?

Something like this just has to be done!

Sounds a little gay to me. I say we hold a nationwide burning of our tax returns at every post office in this country on Apr 15th!

On July 4th we do it again! Except this time BIGGER!

I have a better suggestion. Celebrate the 4th with a "Day at the Range." Make sure your "assault rifle" is sighted in.

“A New Political Movement Is Brewing.”

This is the proper step in taking back the country from the thugs in Washington. It’s been a long time coming. Many branches will grow from the tea party tree. If I could draw a parallel time period between now and the founding of our country, I’d place us at about 1765. The old North Bridge is still in the future.

I don't see it coming to that. Our current crop of politicians are nothing if not spineless. I think they'll fold like newspapers as the confrontation heightens. I think they'll get religion rather quickly.

Strictly my opinion, of course.
