It's all these 'gatherers' and 'sharers' going around counting and measuring and taking off to storage. They do more gathering than sharing and we never see most of the stuff again.

Are you tired of government bailouts of failed companies? Does the coverup by the Democrats over the AIG bonuses have you steamed? Are you angry about our nation's march to socialism?
Then show up at a Tea Party near you.
I was at the Chicago version of the Nationwide Chicago Tea Party last month, with little notice we got 400 patriots to show up.
The Tax Day Tea Party will take place, of course, on April 15. The theme is "Repeal the Pork, Cut Taxes." Once again the Chicago edition will start at Daley Plaza, 50 W. Washington Street. But it will start at noon this time.
If you don't live near Chicago, then there is probably a Tea Party near you.

As far as I can gather, there's at least one Tax Day Tea Party in almost every state.
What to do at the party? Bring signs, a loud voice, and a patriotic state of mind.
Let's be heard!
Let freedom ring!
Well, that's my birthday so I will be there. In fact I'll be there with bells, unless congeress dreams up some sort of "Bell Recovery Tax".

A Revolution is brewing in Central Illinois. Join us on Tax Day, April 15, 2009 to make our voices heard. We will be meeting in Peoria, Illinois between the hours of 11:00am and 2:00pm at the corners of SW Monroe and Hamilton streets at the parking lot of the Peoria Public Library. We will the start at the Federal Courthouse across the street and then on down to the Peoria County Courthouse. We will have a giant copy of the Constitution for all to sign then it will be given to our elected officials. We will also be passing out dvd's and other educational materials to all. So come one come all lets tell everyone how we feel and lets make history and have the largest Tea Party in the country. The Tea Party effort is just a small piece of a much larger movement aimed at restoring the basic free-market principles our country was built on. The Constitution, for the most part, is being ignored by our current government and we intend on working together to correct the problem. The Tea Party effort is a grassroots, collaborative volunteer organization made up of every day American citizens from across the country. Join us in the fight for our liberty!
