Congratulations FReepers and Patriots! According to Henchster's ongoing tallies, we've surpassed 750,000 participants in our nationwide Tax Day TEA Party/Tax Revolt! Woo hoo!! All 50 states fully engaged! Over 600 cities represented and reports still coming in! Huge turnout, huge SUCCESS!!

Elected officials take note: DO NOT TREAD ON ME!!

Tyranny, usurpation, corruption, overreaching, big spending, high taxing will no longer be tolerated!

We the people are FED-UP and we're not going to take it anymore!

Ignore us at your own peril! All Congressional seats, all elected offices throughout the land at risk!

Revolution is in the air!!

Oh - and it will take more than one. Plan for a 5-10 year battle.

[Vicki]

That doesn’t include all the like-minded people who could not attend a tea party. It was reported at all the tea parties that passing cars were honking in support. The numbers of supporters is massive. (Hear that Congress?)

[DennisR]

“The” date? It is going to take more than one...

Plan on several times a year for the next 5-10 years. Then and only then will we possible see some results.

[Jim Robinson]

Woo hoo!!

And another $100 just in from Florida!!

Thank you Florida!!

Proposed "Unofficial Anthem" for Tax Protests

Ray Stevens:
If ten percent is good enough for Jesus
It ought to be enough for Uncle Sam

Now, I'd just like to say a few words right here about taxes!

I pay another man to do my taxes
On account of it's just one more deduction I can take
But the postman brought my W2 this mornin'
And this year they're claimin' a third of all I make

Now I'm just as patriotic as the next man
And you know I love that Red, White, and Blue
So I'll help to pay this risin' "cost of freedom"
But I'll be danged if I'm gonna change my point of view
 
Because every time the bureaucrats run out of money
Well Congress socks it to the workin' man
And I don't think it's one bit funny
When they take so much of my money
And do things with it I don't understand

I don't know why they feel they gotta squeeze us
But I'll tell you just exactly where I stand
I believe if ten percent is good enough for Jesus
Well, it ought to be enough for Uncle Sam

Now, some of them folks that we've been sendin' off to Congress
Think that all they've got to do is spend and spend
But, you know, you can't run a family, much less a country,
With more money goin' out than comin' in

And that ole debt just keeps on gettin' bigger
And we're all gonna have to pay, so don't you laugh
'Cause one day soon you might just look down at your paycheck
And figure out that they done started takin' half

And every time the bureaucrats run out of money
Well Congress socks it to the workin' man
And I don't think it's one bit funny
When they take so much of my money
And do things with it I don't understand

I don't know why they feel they gotta squeeze us
But I'll tell you just exactly where I stand
I believe if ten percent is good enough for Jesus
Well, it ought to be enough for Uncle Sam

I said if ten percent is good enough for Jesus
Well, it ought to be enough....
(Ya know times is gettin' tough)
It ought to be enough for Uncle Sam

ahahaha the left can only dream of such numbers ever attained during their shock and jock protests.

[Paved Paradise]

LOL. I’m sitting here working on two end-of-term papers. Ugh. It’s so beautiful outside right now I could just scream!!!

I am a poor college student and can’t even do that! But my time will come (soon I hope) when I am gainfully employed again. It’s been a big sacrifice but I hope it’s worth it.

[Paved Paradise]

How do you know these people didn’t do heavy lifting in other areas (campaigning, etc.)? Duh.

[wolfcreek]

A little history refresher:

“What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. . . . The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”

T. Jefferson

[Jim Robinson]

Are these TEA Parties scaring our electeed servants witless?

You betcha!

Here’s what happened at a South Carolina TEA Party to a so-called conservative Republican congressman who voted FOR TARP:

Washington is too far gone.

It’s time to concentrate on state politicians and give them the incentive to reject federal control.
