Washington – WorldNetDaily – Posted July 5, 2009

More than 2,000 tea parties from coast to coast attracted hundredths of thousands tax and Big Government protesters on Independence Day – perhaps the biggest July 4 political event in America since the proclamation of the Declaration of Independence….

“Hundreds turned out in Del Rio, Texas, and more than 500 in Norwich, Conn.”
“But several thousand gathered in Ventura County, Calif. where signs read: We are in Hot Water,” {Obamaeconomics} “One Nation under God”and“You can’t fix Stupid, but You Can Vote them out.” Among the speakers was Ted Baehr, founder of Movieguide, a magazine that analyses movies from a biblical perspective…. growing national debt and higher taxes, the United States was “on the road to serfdom” with a tax burden that would have people working six months a year to cover taxes…. the true national debt was heading towards $56 trillion, most current estimate peg the total at about $11.5 trillion.”

“Nearly 5,000 people turned out in Oklahoma City at the state Capitol building, that protest was one of 32 in Oklahoma alone.”

“In San Antonio, Texas, between 3,000 and 4,000 gathered in intense heat throughout the day at the Rio Cibolo Ranch. Joe Wurzelbacher, better known as “Joe the Plumber,” was one of the featured speakers along with Gov. Rick Perry, who became the first elected official to sign the CONTRACT WITH THE CONSTITUTION, a document that espouses ten principles including limiting the role of government, protecting the right to bear arms and amending the Constitution to define marriage as union between one man & one woman.”

“The truth of the matter is that our government has gone out of control,” Vermont attorney Steven Howard told an assembled crowd in Burlington. “We have let loose the leash and now it is running rampant.”

“In Louisville, Ky., where some 1500 turned out, Wendy Caswell, president of the local tea party organization, said. “We’re definitely upholding the Constitution, what our forefathers had laid out for us, so it was an honor for us to do it on Independence Day.”

“We’re just trying to teach people about the Constitution, the Bill of Rights. A lot of what’s going on in Congress wouldn’t stand up to the Constitution,” said Bernard Hargenrader at the Houma, La., tea party… 200 gathered at the downtown courthouse.”

“At the East Texas tea party in Lukin, organizer gave out the White House telephone number and urged attendees to call Obama and tell him, ‘We’re not happy, and we are working to make Texas free from his legislation’. Texas’ former Solicitor General Ted Cruz, told the crowd that America is ‘facing the single greatest threat to our liberty THAT WE’VE EVER SEEN. I believe President Obama was elected BECAUSE WE FAILED TO LEAD. But I also believe that his greatest legacy will be THAT HE INSPIRED A NEW GENERATION OF CONSERVATIVES TO RISE UP AND DEFEND OUR LIBERTY.”

“At the Phoenix rally, Daniel Medina, 36, said: “We’re talking a lot about the Constitution today. We wanted to exercise our free speech. We’re coming together as patriots, not as one political party or another. We’re being taxed and taxed and taxed.”

“OUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN ARE GOING TO BE TAXED OUT OF THEIR GOURDS,” said Frank Giordano at the Augusta, Maine, rally.

P.S. We had at least one small tea party in Orange County at the Buena Park City Hall. My 25 year old sign read: VOTE AGAINST THE CANDIDATES AND ISSUES THAT HOLLYWOOD AND THE NEWS MEDIA ‘ELITE’ SUPPORT – COMMON SENSE. On the other side, I wrote two names, SARAH PALIN AND GLENN BECK. Check on my website, letter of Sunday, Nov. 23, 2008 titled: Join the Sarah Palin Organization near You!
