PLEASE SUPPORT TEA PARTY DAY, APRIL 15, 2009 (TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY )

I recieved this today.

I AM SO DOING THIS.


There's a storm abrewin'. What happens when good, responsible people keep quiet? Washington has forgotten they work for us. We don 't work for them. Throwing good money after bad is NOT the answer. I am sick of the midnight, closed door sessions to come up with a plan. I am sick of Congress raking CEO's over the coals while they, themselves, have defaulted on their taxes. I am sick of the bailed out companies having lavish vacations and retreats on my dollar. I am sick of being told it is MY responsibility to rescue people that, knowingly, bought more house than they could afford. I am sick of being made to feel it is my patriotic duty to pay MORE taxes. I, like all of you, am a responsible citizen. I pay my taxes. I live on a budget and I don 't ask someone else to carry the burden for poor decisions I may make. I have emailed my congressmen and senators asking them to NOT vote for the stimulus package as it was written without reading it first. No one listened. They voted for it, pork and all.

O.K. folks, here it is. You may think you are just one voice and what you think won't make a difference. Well, yes it will and YES, WE CAN!! If you are disgusted and angry with the way Washington is handling our taxes. If you are fearful of the fallout from the reckless spending of BILLIONS to bailout and "stimulate" without accountability and responsibility then we need to become ONE, LOUD VOICE THAT CAN BE HEARD FROM EVERY CITY, TOWN, SUBURB AND HOME IN AMERICA. There is a growing protest to demand that Congress, the President and his cabinet LISTEN to us, the American Citizens. What is being don e in Washington is NOT the way to handle the economic free fall.

So, here's the plan. On April 1, 2009, all Americans are asked to send a TEABAG to Washington , D.C. You do not have to enclose a note or any other information unless you so desire. Just a TEABAG. Many cities are organizing protests. If you simply search, "New American Tea Party", several sites will come up. If you aren't the 'protester' type, simply make your one voice heard with a TEABAG. Your one voice will become a roar when joined with millions of others that feel the same way. Yes, something needs to be don e but the lack of confidence as shown by the steady decline in the stock market speaks volumes.

This was not my idea. I visited the sites of the 'New American Tea Party' and an online survey showed over 90% of thousands said they would send the teabag on April 1. Why, April 1 ?? We want them to reach Washington by April 15. Will you do it? I will.

Send it to: 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. , Washington , D.C. 20500 .

Forward this to everyone in your address book. Visit the website below for more information about the 'New American Tea Party'. I would encourage everyone to go ahead and get the envelope ready to mail, then just drop it in the mail April 1. Can't guarantee what the postage will be by then, it is going up as we speak, but have your envelope ready. What will this cost you? A little time and a 40 something cent stamp & don 't forget the Tea Bag.

What could you receive in benefits? Maybe, just maybe, our elected officials will start to listen to the people. Take out the Pork. Tell us how the money is being spent. We want TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY. Remember, the money will be spent over the next 4-5 years. It is not too late.

Please support TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party day, April 15

March 18, 2009

We currently have people in 600 cities organizing for the TEA Party Day Rally April 15. Help us grow that number to 1,000!

Our country faces a grave danger. Our elected officials in Washington are leading us down an unwise path. We need to act now to stop this situation.

I’m writing asking you to help us and also to motivate others to get involved. AFA and other groups have called for a day of TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party rallies across the U.S. on April 15, including one at noon in front of the city hall in your community. Get with a few friends and go to the rally.

Take Action!

I urge you to please support this movement. Please support, attend and/or help organize a TEA Party rally in your community.Please encourage others to do the same.

I ask one special favor. If a radio station in your community has a talk show, would you call the host and ask him or her to sponsor the TEA Party rally in your community. Thanks so very much.

Please forward this information to others.

IMPORTANT!
THIS FROM GRIM:

ALERT

I saw a video with one of the supporters of this plan, and he said that you should NOT send a tea bag, because it will be tossed in the trash. The White House mail room, which is not actually located in the white house, will not forward it to the actual white house because a tea bag could contain a harmful substance within it.

The man suggested that everyone just sent the tag from a tea bag, that way it will make it to the WH and still send the desired message to the administration.

Of course, I suggest that everyone confirm that what I heard is correct.

Just think I won't mail a teabag.

My doctor might have told me to take it easy but bet your bootie I will send a whole damn box of teabags.

HAHA, I was thinking the same thing...But then I was thinking...Why not make up my own "tea" bag, fresh chamomile, a pinch of mint, and some leafy greens ( ) I'll call it the Phelps mellow blend...

Honestly Grim, I don't think it matters, that is a great suggestion even if it is just a rumor...Plus, it will save in postage, and, could you imagine what would happen to the mail sorting machines if a bunch of loose tea was exploded all over the guts?

Better idea... I like it.

I think I'll throw in an empty cigarette pack too.

I've participated in many of these types of protest and nothing comes of it..hope springs eternal!!

They are also asking people to volunteer and hold a "Tea Party" on April 15th and call your local radio station. So far they have 600 cities going to do just that. They are looking to have 1,000.

THAT would probably get their attention, just like the rallies and marches over the AIG bonuses did.

Holy shit it's lady mod.
How's it hanging?

This is a much nicer version of scam.com...so you'll have to behave yourself.

Hey, would it be considered biological terrorism if I sneeze on my tea bag tag and try to give someone in washington my cold?

I am mailing a box of them to Arnold up in Sacramento (who has just raised all the taxes he could think of, on us) and one to Washington! I love this idea! I saw one brand that I really think fits......it's called Wisdom Herbs!

BTW are you feeling okay OT?? Just wondered with the doctor comment.......hope you are alright.

Wouldn't miss it for the world.

I'm on it as well...

yep, I'm in.

Well Jackson did it's part, how about you guys.

my boys and my girl all went to the one in boston. the boston tea party.

What do you want to bet that the whole thing will be down played and mostly ignored by washington.

What little they are saying about it is disgusting. One of the nbc guys actually made a comedy routine out of reporting on it, going with the urban dictionary definition of tea bagging. bunch of losers.

They would do well to remember that it is susch ignorance that breeds contempt.

also, boys, don't forget, last night fox showed a female reporter from cnn interviewing a random tea party woman. the woman was very mild, making her point to the cnn reporter-when suddenly the reporter cut her off and said, "this is getting much to much for young kids to be hearing on tv" and she stopped the interview. fox was OUTRAGED at this and pointed out that liberal demonstrations are usually vulgar displays, unlike the tea party, yet the birkie wearing demonstrators are allowed-no, PUSHED-by cnn to spill their guts. freaks.

Yeap, I saw that. She was being not only a bitch, but was obvious about not being fair or balanced. And on top of all that, what she interupted him to say was stupid.

that's right. was it a guy yours was interviewing, cuz i saw a woman... neways, there were many who got shut up, is what they said on fox.

Yeap, was a guy holding his kid.
