American Tea Party 2009

Americans are angry! Our country is not looking like our country anymore. Too many politicians seem to be more concerned with their ideology and agenda than with what we, the people want and need.

As a result, there are protest "tea parties" scheduled all over the country tomorrow, April 15, 2009. There have already been some tea parties around the country, and there are still more scheduled through the year, and especially on July 4, 2009, but tax day, April 15, is the unofficial real "kick off".

I cannot attend a local protest, nor can I travel to DC for that tea party. But I do believe in the tea party protests, and whatever else we can do to force our politicians to be honest with us, transparent with us, and to listen to us. I can't attend for financial reasons and personal responsibilities for my child. So I thought I am probably not the only one who feels strongly about what is happening to our country, but cannot attend even a local tea party. And that is how this blog came to be. An online tea party for those of us who cannot attend a tea party in person, and still would like to participate!
So please join me for the online tea party 2009, starting April 15, 2009 and continuing, well, as long as needed...
This blog is open for your posts, comments, questions, speeches, pictures and video from
tea parties around the country. You can also sign a petition to let the government know where you stand on the out of control spending, taxing, and infringement of our rights. No foul language. Nothing offensive.
Party like it's 1773!
