The crowd is estimated at 3200. <br /><br />Three different locations and three different times of day. Another was held in Owasso, a bedroom community of Tulsa.Maggie Thorntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01681328690482778919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7370534.post-74110635546992171412009-04-16T06:55:00.000-07:002009-04-16T06:55:00.000-07:00I parked the motorcycle for free on 13th near the ...I parked the motorcycle for free on 13th near the phone company.

I have been there many times before and you name it and I have seen it advocated on the North, South and West entrances to the Capitol building.<br /><br />I heard Tom McClintock address the throng and say that in 27 years of working in that building (the Capitol) today's was the largest gathering he had ever seen there.<br /><br />No arrests, no bags of human waste thrown at the cops, no free Mumia table, no legalize marijuana waste of time. Only one tall gel haired stuffed shirt pushing his way from Tenth Street toward the west steps repeating, "Marine Corps, Semper Fi, 'scuse me, Marine Corps, Semper Fi, 'scuse me."<br /><br />The first speaker asked for a show of hands, "How many of you have never protested before?" Many hands went up. "How many of you are protesting for the first time?" Many more hands went up. <br /><br />Highly inspirational in the age of paid canvassers, rent-a-mobs, astroturfing much less skewed polling.<br /><br />Fellow BZ fans: just show up. Show up any way you can. Go to the Tea Party on Independence Day. Kick in a few bucks if you can to whoever earns your trust. For the sake of our "Home-Sweet-Home" do not pull another stupid 2008 stay-at-home-from-voting stunt in another election for the rest of your lives.<br /><br />dmurray<br /><br />still no sign upsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7370534.post-89347036687870230432009-04-15T17:04:00.000-07:002009-04-15T17:04:00.000-07:00The Tea Parties and Taxes, Taxes and more Taxes. D...The Tea Parties and Taxes, Taxes and more Taxes. Do you think you pay enough, do you think you pay too much, do you think you pay too little, or do you think at all. Unfortunately, many Americans fall into the last catagory. They don't think, they don't care, or they don't think they can make a difference. The Tea Parties may, just may be a spark that ignites a great fire-storm, on that we'll have to wait and see. At least some took the time, took the effort, and took a stand for what they believe in. And that by any view is good and the way it should be... Napoleon said, "ten people who speak make more noise than ten thousand who are silent".

My little guy isn't big enough to go to such events so I have been writing to my Congressmen etc. I truly despise the media's characterization of Tea Party goers as fringe loons and racists at that.<br /><br />Alan Keyes did a Tea Party speech in Pennsylvania a coupla days ago and I saw the Youtube footage. He is righteous and I agreed with a lot of what he said.<br /><br />Change is in the air, I hope we are patient enough to continue pushing for it.<br /><br />I give a good damn about a Portuguese water dog and care more about my little son and husband and dog at home and our bills etc.<br /><br />Anyway, just stopping by to say hey. I know you've been dealing with grief and pray for you. Have a wonderful day.Mahndisa S. Rigmaidenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08507292526980604567noreply@blogger.com
