Tea Party

Tea Party tomorrow evening at the State Capitol in St. Paul from 5 to 8. It promises to be a fun event, one of many such that will take place around the country to protest the federal government's excessive and wasteful spending, endless bailouts, tax increases, and the crushing debt that the administration intends to run up for years to come. I'll be covering the event for Power Line and Pajamas Media and will post photos and video when it's over.
Today’s the day! It’s Nationwide Tax Day Tea Party day, and Michelle Malkin’s going to be in the thick of things all day. Make sure you check in at her blog often for updates on the goings on all across the country, including pix, video, etc. And don’t forget the official site for the Tax Day Tea Party, which will have updates all day as well. You can also visit that site to see if a Party will be held in your area, for those who decide at the last minute that they’d like to attend. Fellow North Carolinians, click here to find out where Tea Parties are being held in NC.
And so it goes with today's Tax Day Tea Parties, which harken back to the Boston Tea Party when Americans rebelled against British rule. Then, the impetus for the protest was for unfair taxation. Now, the cause is what protesters say is wasteful federal spending, such as the bailout money offered to companies such as A.I.G. and G.M.
