Michelle Malkin discussed the 4th of July National Tea Party and the upcoming July 17th simultaneous Tea Party Protest against ObamaCare today on Fox & Friends:
Are you ready for the next Tea Party?
Date: July 17th
Time: Noon to 1:00 PM Eastern, 9:00 to 10:00 AM Pacific
Where: Every Senator’s and Representative’s Congressional District Office across the nation!!
Details and Resources: Tea Party events are listed by state on Tea Party Patriots’ website. The site also includes lots of resource links.
Update 07/10: Rick Moran reports today at American Thinker that some Tea Partiers aren’t waiting for well-planned coordinated events:
- With little advance notice, Tea Party groups across the country organized counterprotests to ACORN and Moveon demonstrations in favor of Obama’s health care plan. [...]
Something is stirring in this country at the grass roots level. Sure we’ve seen big turnouts when an event is planned months in advance. But like the Minute Men of old, there is apparently a core group of Tea Partiers and other patriots who can be activated with little or no notice to counter the opposition – and generate more numbers and enthusiasm than the liberals.
People are wondering where the Tea Party Movement goes from here. The answer may be simply turning citizens into activists who feel strongly enough about what’s happening in America that they drop everything they are doing to show support for American values and principles.
This is a new phenomenon in American politics – conservatives in great numbers turning out to protest policies they believe are ruinous to our future. Judging by what’s happening around the country, their impact is just beginning to be felt.
Michelle Malkin has more on Soros/ACORN counterprotests in New York and Florida.
I am so looking forward to this July 17th tea party. The way Obama move his plans so rapidly, I wish we could organize TEA PARTY spontaneously within a few days. This is the only way to keep up with his insane policies.
Hey Dick Durbin, I’m coming over for visit.
