Monday cap-and-trade Tea Party at Rep. Mark Kirk's office

A few months ago prior to a bloggers' conference call, when there was talk that a special election to determine Barack Obama's successor after Rod Blagojevich's arrest, I brought up the possibility thAT Rep. Mark Kirk (R-Highland Park) could run--and win.

Another blogger on the call, I don't know who it was, but he ripped into Kirk, stating he wasn't conservative enough. I defended Kirk.

But no conservative...Hey, no self respecting moderate could vote for the energy tax bill, better known as cap-and-trade.

Kirk was one of eight Democrats to vote for the energy tax.

Have you had enough? I have, which is why I plan to be at the Cap-and-Trade Tea Party at Mark Kirk's office just a few miles up the road from me in Northbrook.

Here's what you need to know:

Monday - June 29 - 12 Noon
707 Skokie Boulevard
Suite 350
Northbrook, IL 60062

Kirk's office phone is 847-940-0202, his Fax number is 847-940-7143. If you'd like to e-mail him, click here.

If you can't make it to that one, then cross the party aisle and head a few miles west to Schaumburg on Tuesday for a Tea Party at Rep. Melissa Bean's office in Schaumburg:

Tuesday - June 30 - 12 Noon
Melissa Bean
1701 E. Woodfield Road
Suite 200
Schaumburg, IL 60173

Bean's district office phone number is 847-517-2927, if you'd like to fax the alleged Blue Dog Democrat--her fax number is 847-517-2931. Click here to e-mail Bean.

I can't make the Bean event--work beckons me.

Bring signs.

Silent no more!

Congratulations to Mark Kirk for showing courage to do what he believes is right in the face of all the screaming AM radio kooks.

Voting for a thousand page bill that no one has read is not right, it is insane. Mark Kirk should go to the end of unemployment line immediately.
