You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot help small men by tearing down big men. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot lift the wage-earner by pulling down the wage-payer. You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot establish security on borrowed money. You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves." --Presbyterian minister William J.H. Boetcker (1873-1962)

The following is a quote from the Declaration of Independence, "
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

It may well be that our nation is standing at this solemn time in history for such a time as this,
May God bless you for your efforts.

So many people have fought and died for this country,freedom does not come cheap its earned. We seemed to have forgotten the sacrifices made by past generations that have made this the greatest country in the world. Our service men & women are fighting to free other countries while ours is being dismanteled piece by piece. Our Government now thinks they are royalty and we are their drones who are expected to work pay taxes and not have minds of our own! They refer to us as "ordinary people". What they do not understand is we are far from ordinary history speaks for itself time & time again when our country has needed us we have always stepped up to the plate. We have given our blood our sweat & our tears to keep this country great not only for ourselves but for future generations to come. Its time again for us to step up to the plate our freedom our very happiness depends on it. We love you Lisa and are so proud of you our "dreamer and doer". Dad & Mom

I will be there with my hubby and my boys. Working on my sister and her hubby and 3 kids. I am asking around my neighbors as well. I suggest everyone who is travelling there decorate their cars in some way letting people know where they are going. Maybe red white blue w/ info about the tea party? Teabags on vehicles? Maybe we will get some followers to join on the day? Maybe make a sign to put on our cars right now advertising the tea party in our local areas. Not everyone will see this site, but we can advertise it in our area for a month prior to the march. Can't wait to be there! Will donate some to help. Remember folks, the founders pledged their fortunes and lives, can we do less? God Bless you all!

FACT: The Boston Tea Party was mainly precipitated by what amounted to a corporate tax cut.

Colonists, disgusted by the Stamp Act and other oppressive British legislation, organized a boycott of the world's first mega-corporation: the British East India Company.

In order to ameliorate financial losses caused by the boycott, Parlaiment passed the Tea Act of 1773, which significantly reduced the taxes/duty on tea sold by the East India Company, thus allowing this mega-corporation to sell directly to the colonies and to significantly undercut independent prices offered by smaller colonial tea companies.

And so the famous Boston Tea Party was organized.

This "uprising", ostensibly to protest helping middle and working class homeowners, is more closely in line with having a tea party -- in support of the British East India Company.

Protest on, you community organizers you!

Lisa,

You're a true patriot! Thank you for letting Central Floridians speak out agains the horrendous hemorraging happening to the country by the fools in Washington! We should invite them to come so they can see just how poorly we are being represented. They need to stop this madness, end the income tax, end the war on poverty, stop the class warfare, kill about half the federal programs and departments, give states back their sovereignty, stop spying on us and abusing our civil liberties, bring us back to 2000 level spending (no so-called Fair-Tax needed), and let people be free from tyranny again.

Yours in Liberty,

Jeff

Also I am a FAIR TAX SUPPORTER! This goes hand in hand with it considering the widespread financial fraud that we all call our current tax code. Someone should bring some materials for the FAIRTAX and make sure we get some publicity for that as well! I will look into materials but as a backup if someone else can bring some that would be great!

I'm letting my friends know and I've invited a ton of people on Facebook to join the group! We need to get Bud to announce the Facebook group over the radio. The Internet will spread the cause like wildfire, it just takes a little promotion to get it started! Thanks Lisa for heading this up. I've wanted to do something to get Washington's attention for a long time! We definitely need media coverage too! It's time the government recognized it's BY THE PEOPLE and FOR THE PEOPLE, not the party!

I will be there. I sent the following email to everyone I know. Please copy and paste and pass on.
As most of you may know, Democrats and Three Republicans, voted to spend more money than has ever been spent before… $800 billion dollars. To put this into perspective, it is the same as spending over a million dollars every day since the day Jesus was born.
The argument by the Democrats is that this will stimulate the economy. Of the $800 billion dollars in the bill only about $160 billion is actual stimulus. The remaining $640 billion is for special interest projects that will not stimulate the economy at all.
Here is a small example as to what is in this bill:
1. $30 million dollars to save the harvest mouse in the San Francisco Bay area.
2. $600 millionfor new government cars.
3. $252 billion is for income-transfer payments – these are not investments that help everyone, but cash or benefits to individuals for doing nothing at all like earned income credit for people who don't pay income tax.
4. $150 million for The Smithsonian.
5. $50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts.
6. $400 million for global-warming research.
7. $2.4 billion for carbon-capture demonstration projects.
8. $650 million to pay for digital TV conversion coupons.

This is just a small example and doesn’t include the millions of dollars in this bill for dog parks, Frisbee Golf course or fish hatcheries. In other words, these are things that will not create jobs or stimulate the economy.
Obama promised a tax cut for 95% of Americans. Since only about 60% of Americans pay taxes that means that 35% of Americans who don’t pay taxes will get money. (see #3 above). Obama says that this money will be paid back by the top 2% of the nations wage earners. The problem with that theory is that even if you took 100% of the income over the timeframe that Obama proposes for the payback, there isn’t enough money. The tax cuts that everyone has to look forward to is about $13 per family per week this year and $8 next year.
While campaigning, Obama promised that he would CREATE 4 million jobs. Today he says that this stimulus, or as I like to call it sin-to-us, will CREATE OR SAVE 3 to 4 million jobs. The problem with this argument is a saved job can never be statistically proven. 4 years from now, when trying to seduce America to reelect him he can say, “It’s a good thing we did that stimulus because even though we lost over 5 million jobs, with this stimulus, we saved 5 million jobs”. His rhetoric put him in a no lose situation.
So after all this information, here is the reason for this letter. This is America! We are not slaves to what the elected leaders dictate. If we don’t like it then we have a right and a responsibility to stand up and to be heard. People forget, too easily, that “We, the people” formed this government and that we are a government, “by the people and for the people”. You are the government! You have a voice! Sure, you are just one voice, buy put together with 5 or 10 people you know and 5 or 10 people they know and spread throughout the nation we are a formidable force that cannot and will not be ignored.
Here are the reactions that this letter will get.
1. Who wrote this letter? What a loon, there is nothing that can be done.
2. Great letter! You go get them and let me know how that works out for you.
3. We can’t make a difference, so why bother?
4. I wish I could do something, but I don’t have time.
5. We need to give Obama a chance to see if this thing works.
Here is the problem with the last one. The Democrats and Obama claim to have a plethora of economist that agrees with them about the stimulus. Here are the facts. Most economist know this won’t work and hundreds of economist took out a full page ad in various newspapers who stood up and let the President know that this won’t work.
Let history be your guide. Obama has been reading a lot about Franklin D. Roosevelt. It was once believe that his spending policies got us out of the great depression of 1929 that lasted until the start of WWII…over 10 years. What people never hear about is the depression of 1920. Why? Because in 1920, nothing was done except some tax cuts and in less than 2 years it was over.
In 1960 Kennedy inherited a recession and cut taxes. Guess what? It worked. Obama says that this is the worst recession since the great depression. His confusion with history is no surprise since he referred to our 57 states, 10,000 people who died in the recent tornados, (it was 12 people), and most recently saying that we need to help the American car companies since this is the country that invented the car. (It was Karl Benz in Germany). However,

Hard working Americans needs to tell how are money is spent, we would not waste this much money on down right stupid things. I used to work in a grocery store and you wouldn't believe how many people have in the past abused the food stamp system.

At best, Virtue will slumber. I dread the depravity of human nature. I wish to guard against it, by proper checks, and trust nothing to accident or chance. I will never depend on so slender a protection as the possibility of being represented by virtuous men.

-Patrick Henry (Speaking to the Continental Congress on the need to include the Bill of Rights into the Constitution, to establish that certain rights were granted to men by God, and that government may not impinge upon these unalienable rights. Government has no right to confer them upon the people, because they have been innate from our creation. Government only has the rights which the people choose to confer up it, not the other way around.)

The deterioration of every government begins with the decay of principles on which it was founded.

-Montesquieu


Good governance is more than a right, it is a responsibility, that if the individual fails to exercise will ultimately result in tyrany, under whose boot we have placed our own heads. We can neither ignore nor tolerate the infringements that are daily taking place upon our guaranteed and God given rights. If we fail to act upon our responsibilities, we will deserve what we get.

Exercise Your Rights and Responsibilities.

Remember that while the obverse of the coined Americanism is, "United We Stand," the reverse is "Divided We Fall." It is time to stand together.

600 million could get the homeless off the street and give them a new start and if we quit outsourcing jobs these people can sleep in a bed again and have a job to go to. Next time you go shopping see how many things you can find that says made in America. I usde to have Direct T.V. called customer service one night and reached some customer service in another country I could not even understand them. Needless to say I immediatley canceled and went with another provider. We have to give the jobs back to the American people. WE THE PEOPLE need to boycott any company that outsources jobs. That will get them in their pocketbooks, because that is their motivation. Remember you cannot be a slave of two masters. We must make a stand and get back this great country God has blessed. We are in serious trouble if we don't. We must stand up for what is right. see you all in Orlando and hope to meet all of you. thanks again Lisa, your parents bust be very proud of you, and be proud of yourself.

Here's hoping the tea party is only the start. Here's a revolutionary idea... What if American taxpayers pledge to not file income taxes next year? If only a fraction of 155.2 million people in the labor force committed themselves to the idea, the Infernal Revenue Service and its evil twin, the Federal Reserve would wither and die the deaths they deserve. We need modern-day Jeffersons, Adamses and Madisons to heed to the call. No taxation without REAL representation.

What Could You Do with $787 Billion...

1. If you split it up and gave it to every man, woman and child in the United States, everyone would get about twenty-six hundred bucks.

2. The United State Census estimates the current population of the US to be about 305,862,000. A conservative estimate of the number of people living in the US illegally is around 11 million. So if you excluded them, even legal residents (and their children) would get another $100 each for a grand pay out of $2,700 for everyone in America legally.

3. If US Census figures are credible, then close to 230 million people are of voting age. So if we don't give the kids a big allowance check then all grown ups would be about $3,400 richer.

4. If we sent an even share of the $787 billion to every household in the United States, then look in your mailbox for a $7,100 check.

5. We could just split the money with all working people. After all, it rightfully belongs to them. All workers (even those on unemployment) would get a check for a little over five grand.

5. We could really help out those with low to middle incomes and give the money to households making less than $50,000 per year. 77 million households would get a big fat $10,200 bonus.

6. Parents really need a break in these hard times. If we sent a check to every household with children under 18, then parents could go deposit about $22,400 in the bank. That would be change I could believe in.

7. Or, we could do what it looks like we are going to do - waste it all.

Pouring capital into this socialist scheme seems like an oxymoron to me. To those who think the Star Spangled Banner is hard to sing, guess what? The Internationale is no piece of cake either.

everyone check out declaration of treason at oilforimmigration.org. we need to request the resignation of all our Florida officials. They have breached their oath of office, to protect and defend the constitution. By breaching the Law of our land,our constitution what right do they have to hold office? Does anyone know what Barack Obama/Barry Soetoro/Barry Dunham ect. He has gone by several names What is his legal name??? Why has this man gone to such great lengths to seal all records about him. We have been scammed. Do we not have the right to know who this man is? Our Florida officials do not care about the people of Florida that is clear. If you cant do the time don't do the crime. Until this man produces his birth certificate he has to be considered as an enemy. Therefore so are the officials of Florida.Remember the Oath of office to protect and defend from enemys forgien and domestic. We the People must protect our constitution and prosecute the officials for stepping on it. Obamas "change" and "yes we can" is this<< Yes we can change the constitution. We the hard working taxpayers are what Washington calls "useful idiots". These people are not above the Constitution. We must demand that the laws of our constitution are followed.

"In order to form a hypothesis about the future of an individual, one must consider three elements: his present course of action, his concious convictions, and his sense of life. the same elements must be considered in forming a hypothesis about the future of a nation.

"A sense of life is a pre-conceptual equivalent of metaphysics. An emotional, subconciously integrated appraisal of man and of existence. It represents an individual's unidentified philosophy; it affects his choice of values and his emotional responses, influences his actions, and, frequently, clashes with his concious convictions.

"A nation, like an individual, has a sense of life, which is expressed not in its formal culture, but in its "life style" - in the kind of actions and attitudes which people take for granted and believe to be self-evident...

"A nations political trends are the equivalent of a man's course of action and are determined by it's culture. A nation's culture is the equivalent of a man's concious convictions. Just as an individual's sense of life can clash with his concious convictions, hampering or defeating his actions, so a nation's sense of life can clash with its culture, hampering or defeating its political course. Just as an individual's sense of life can be better or worse than his concious convictions, so can a nation's. And just as an individual who has never translated his sense of life into a concious convictions is in terrible danger - no matter how good his subconcious values - so is a nation.

Will there be speakers? I read in the Kansas City Tea Party report that 200 people came out in a snow storm but they had no speakers. They are planning their second one with speakers. It would be nice if we could get a list of the issues we wish "to make very clear" to the President.= as he has so audaciously said to us - "let me make myself perfectly clear"

I just sent the following letter with a tea bag to my House Rep and both Senators. At the top of the letter I included a pic of a Minuteman with a tea bag...

Dear Rep. ___________,

Many Central Floridians, including myself, are sick and tired of the mortgage bailouts, bank bailouts, auto manufacturer bailouts, wasteful spending, earmarks, pork, and socialization of America. You and others in Congress are mortgaging my future… my children’s future… my grandchildren’s future. You and others in Congress are increasing our debt to foreign nations… some of which may not be all that friendly in the future… especially when the bill comes due. You and others in Congress are printing money like never before in American history… which shall lead to inflation. The Republicans squandered our national wealth by spending like drunken sailors. The Democrats have now anteed up on the Republicans and are spending like drunken sailors with a heroin IV in the arm. We, the Citizens of America, have had it. We are leading a peaceful revolution to turn this ship around. Our cry is “Repeal or Retire!” By 2010, you and the others in Congress will do one or the other. Please make an effort to be with us on 3/21/09 at The Amphitheater @ Lake Eola (Orlando) from Noon until 2PM. We will be conducting the first official “Orlando Tea Party”. We are growing in power and the growth crosses party lines. I believe that it is in your interest to be present. Please use the enclosed teabag to enjoy a cup tea on me… the revolution starts now!

Respectfully,

My fellow Floridians and Americans, How can Senators Martinez and Nelson or any other congressional employees of WE THE PEOPLE tolerate 9,000 earmarks totalling 7.7 BILLION. 1.8 MILLION "that stinks" for swine control, 200,000 for tatoo removal,30 MILLION fo a mouse. This is insane. We must demand All their resignations. They should pass go and go directly to jail. Perhaps Nancy Polsie and the female elected officials should be sent to Alcatraz, then they can see their 30 Million dollar mouse. The Men can be sent to Guantanamo Bay. If you listen to Obama speaches he uses the word Crisis over & over & over again. 28 times in one speech. The REAL CRISIS IS THAT HE IS IN OFFICE and is trying to bring America to her knees. The only way to get out of this mess is to give these people the BOOT. Let them see what the meaning of the words UNEMPLOYEED, HOMELESS, FORECLOSURE,REPOSSED,HUNGER mean.We could sell all their homes,cars and possessions and apply that back to the people. I would rather my tax dollars go to Alcatraz for bread and butter only. If I was this irresponsible at my job I would be FIRED.Period. These people are EMPLOYEED BY WE THE PEOPLE. So as Donald Trump would say" YOU'RE FIRED". See you all in Orlando. we will make a difference.

An idea for those who intend to show up at the event:

Come with your video cameras and do random man-on-the-street interviews with the folks who show up. Ask them why they're there, what they would like to tell congress, how they intend to vote in 2010, etc.
Now if we could designate a YouTube handler to piece it all together and put out a 1-2 minute video, that would be sweet.

How We Got Here

By Phillip J. Longo

First I would like to put several stakes in the ground. First stake, we are a country of consumers, if we do not consume, we will wither and die. We are a capitalist country. That is, we have a system that was primarily designed to allow a family to generate income from their work. Initially and ideally there is enough income to be used to pay for a family’s NEEDS, SAVE some money in the bank and have some left over for their WANTS.

As a society we cannot survive if we only have enough income to pay for our needs. We must have enough income after we pay for our NEEDS to CONSUME the things we WANT. After all, how many shoes do you really need? How many TV’s do you really need? How many DVD’s do you really need? How much variety in food do you really need? And still have money left over at the end of the day to put some in the bank. This has been clearly demonstrated with the spike in fuel cost. The American people stopped consuming what the WANTED to pay for what they NEEDED.

Right now the concern is JOBS, what can we do to put the people back to work and reduce unemployment? If there is no demand (CONSUMPTION) there is no production if there is no production there are no jobs. Without DESRETIONARY INCOME there is not enough CONSUMPTION to keep our people employed. It really is just that simple. It is clear to me that we should be looking at ways to help our families increase their DECRETIONARY INCOME.

This problem did not happen overnight. It started at the turn of the century and it is due to human nature and the mismanagement of our country’s business (government) and over time the perversion of the Constitution by our elected representatives, both of which can be corrected.

So, what has eroded our DECRETIONARY INCOME? First and foremost, TAXES! Second…..Home Loans…..Third Transportation cost….. Energy and last health care. All these things we can address in innovative and meaningful ways without borrowing and putting our country in further debt and at the same time provide significant stimulation to the economy.

To give some perspective, in 1913 50% of the employees in America made less than $800.00 per year. Average income was about $15,000.00 per year the population was 97,225,000. 1913 was the year congress started income tax. The rate was 3% to a top marginal rate of 7%. Income tax collected in 1913 was equal to $.73 per capita.

The only expenses families had 1n 1913 was; food, clothing & shelter for the most part. Henry Ford built his first Model T car in 1908 and opened up his assembling line in 1913. Therefore not many people had cars back at the turn of the century. Basically, after food, clothing & shelter in the form of rent or mortgage everything else was discretionary income. It wasn’t until 1919 the RCA mass produced radios of home use.

Today however it is a different story. We have a population of 301,139,947 people and the income tax collected is equal to $8,534.00 per capita. Now let’s look at our families expenses today; Food, Clothing, Shelter with that shelter comes (insurance, garbage pick-up, water, electricity), Appliances (TV, Radio, VCR / VCR Tapes, DVD players / DVD Movies, MP3’s, Toaster/Toaster ovens, Coffee makers, Ovens, Refrigerators, Computer, virus protection, flash drives, software, phone, fax, cell phone, healthcare insurance, mortgage insurance, life insurance, auto insurance, and then there is the automobile, not just one but two or three per family-oil, gas, tires, tune-ups.

Our government has increased our taxes without giving consideration to the fact that our population has grown, (more contributors), inflation has grown, (same percent gives a high payout). Let me demonstrate: realtors get a 7% commission on the sale of a home, it has been that way since commissions have been paid on the sales of homes. If, in 1913 a home sold for $1,000.00 the commission at 7% would be $70.00. If that same home sold today for $250,000.00, the commission would be $17,500.00. The percentage did not change but the price of the house did. Let me ask you a question, what has happened to our incomes and our population since 1913? Income tax collect

I hope the media will be present for the event. The liberal-biased media helped Obama get into the white house by not reporting about the anti-socialism feelings of many of our well-educated American citizens. Unfortunately, the lack of fair and balanced reporting on their part caused the election to go in favor of the far left wing and now our economy is really screwed and will only get worse. I support this protest, and can only pray that it would not go unnoticed.

Here's another reason that everyone should attend

I was just watching CNBC which was showing the budget hearings with Tim Geithner. He verified that there is a new tax in Obama's budget which MANADATES all employers to form 401Ks or IRAs for all their employees and remove a certain government determined percentage of their pay and place it in these accounts every paycheck. The goverment will be controlling our personal income. This affects every American and everyone needs to know about this ASAP. Why is Mr. Obama hiding this socialist policy from the American people? The president has totally crossed the line and every American needs to hear the truth. This is not a party issue but a personal invasion into everyone's personal affairs. My family will be there on March 21st. Thanks for oganizing this event.

Lisa:

There are tens of millions of us. We need to become organized and ABSOLUTELY DEFIANT before it is too late.

Our nation is now being sucked into the deadly vortex of fascist tyranny. Those who recognize this peril cannot ignore it; we must all work together to overcome it, or we will all perish together.
When the iron boot of tyranny is upon you, there are only two choices: destroy those who wear it, or be crushed beneath it. Victory or slavery.

As Benjamin Franklin told the other delegates after signing the Declaration of independence: "we must all hang together, or we will surely hang separately."

NOW IS THE TIME WHEN ALL GOOD MEN MUST COME TO THE AID OF THEIR COUNTRY.

By the way, we must be careful with our terminology. We do NOT need a revolution, which seeks to overthrow the duly-constituted system of government. Such an overthrow is already well underway. We need a RESTORATION MOVEMENT, which seeks to reinstate our legitimate, duly-constituted system of government under the U.S. Constitution. That is why I suggest that the ORLANDO TEA PARTY be subtitled "U.S. Constitution Restoration Rally".

We desperately need to start holding regular patriotic meetings, where we can support each other and network face to face. The ORLANDO TEA PARTY is a great start!

Above all, we need to depend upon God; without his aid, no victory is possible.

May God bless you and your patriotic efforts.


"You have the highest of human trusts committed to your care. Providence has showered on this favored land blessings without number, and has chosen you as the guardians of freedom, to preserve it for the benefit of the human race. May He who holds in His hands the destiny of nations make you worthy of the favors He has bestowed, and may He enable you, with pure hearts and hands and SLEEPLESS VIGILANCE, to guard and defend to the end of time the great charge He has committed to your keeping."

Since the party has been disloyal to us, I have decided to research, research, research. I've learned that most of what our Republican "leaders" are telling us is exaggerated or distorted.

Dan, I realize this is not a forum, but I am one who makes less than 250,000 a year. I am going to the Tea Party for my children. I am protesting government out of control. A government who will be leaving a debt too big to repay. A government who will tax my children out of the quality of life that we have enjoyed. A government who thinks they have the right to deterimine who is rich and who isn't. A government who thinks they have the right to take the hard earned money of their citizens and give it to whoever they deem needs it more. A government who thinks capitalism does not work. A government who cannot see that they are the problem.

Our Founders recognized that the moment the government is authorized to start leveling the material possesions of the rich in order to have an equal distrubution of goods, the government thereafter has the power to deprive ANY of the people their equal rights to enjoy thier lives, liberties and property.

If you think you are safe at under 250,000 per year, think again. The government will redefine the defination of rich and you just might be their next target.

Heidi is the proprietor of a bar in Norfolk. In
order to increase sales, she decides to allow
her loyal customers - most of whom are
unemployed alcoholics - to drink now but pay
later. She keeps track of the drinks consumed
on a ledger (thereby granting the customers
loans).
Word gets around and as a result increasing
numbers of customers flood into Heidi's bar.
Taking advantage of her customers' freedom
from immediate payment constraints, Heidi
increases her prices for wine and beer, the
most-consumed beverages. Her sales volume
increases…massively.
A young and dynamic customer service
consultant at the local bank recognizes these
customer debts as valuable future assets and
increases Heidi's borrowing limit. He sees no
reason for undue concern since he has the
debts of the alcoholics as collateral.
At the bank's corporate headquarters, expert
bankers transform these customer assets into
DRINKBONDS, ALKBONDS and
PUKEBONDS. These securities are then
traded on markets worldwide. No one really
understands what these abbreviations mean
and how the securities are guaranteed.
Nevertheless, as their prices continuously
climb, the securities become top-selling items.
One day, although the prices are still climbing,
a risk manager of the bank, (subsequently of
course fired due his negativity), decides that
slowly the time has come to demand payment
of the debts incurred by the drinkers at Heidi's
bar. However they cannot pay back the debts
and Heidi cannot fulfill her loan obligations and
claims bankruptcy
DRINKBOND and ALKBOND drop in price by
95 %. PUKEBOND performs better, stabilizing
in price after dropping by 80 %.
The suppliers of Heidi's bar, having granted
her generous payment due dates and having
invested in the securities are faced with a new
situation. Her wine supplier claims bankruptcy,
her beer supplier is taken over by a competitor.
The bank is saved by the Government
following dramatic round-the-clock
consultations by leaders from the governing
political parties.The funds required for this
purpose are obtained by a tax levied on the
non-drinkers.
Finally an explanation I understand...

Thank you for organizing this, Lisa and giving us opportunity to voice our extreme concern at the socialist leaning and out of control spending the federal government is wielding.
We remember the integrity and vision of George Washington, and the men who pledged their lives, liberty, and sacred honor for the right to self-govern.

I loved Alan's analysis and breakdown of dividing up the $787 billion and giving it back to the taxpayers so that the free market could spend it as they saw fit. What a concept!!! The free market making the decisions of what companies should succeed and which should fail by voting with their wallets, instead of centralized government planning making the decision. Obama needs to look at that 1920 recession and how Coolidge handled it. As Obama seeks to demonize business he should instead understand Coolidge, who said among many other things that "Large profits mean large payrolls" and "Government can never relieve man of toil" I will be in Orlando in the 21st. I am enthralled that I am not alone in the feelings I have had since November.It is time for true Constitutionalist Americans to begin to take our country back from the "idle class"

Our kids are being taught in school and the media that 'Global Warming' is the biggest issue our country faces, when in fact our national debt and the socialism it is bringing needs to be communicated.

This is an outstanding event and coincides with a similar one (SAVE OUR NATION) being held in Jacksonville on Apr. 11th. Neal Boortz & Herman Caim will be among the speakers here. Go to www.fairtax.org to register to attend.
An oxymoron: "our representatives". As a FairTax advocate and community coordinator I have witnessed the 'don't care' attitude of our representatives. Some even cosponsor the legislation to get us off their back but have no intention of supporting the bill (HR-25).
We need to not reelect any representative for two elections to show them we the people have taken back our nation. Then they will know that if they do not provide honest representation, it is their last term in office.
Can we do it? Yes we can!

The FairTax is the only viable way to get the corruption out of government. It is constructed to eliminate the openings that lobbyists can formulate loopholes to benefit special interests. Our elected representative reap tons on campaign contributions from tax lobbyists to support loopholes. The contributions virtually assure reelection. We need to break this cycle and get people of character and integrity in office.
Visit www.fairtax.org for a better understanding of how the FairTax works. Visit our local FairTax supporters meeting on Mar 10th, 7PM at the Eastmonte Civic Center in Altamonte Springs.

Lisa,

I'm coming to the Tea Party because we've got to start showing up somewhere & doing something, or we'll loose everything.

A story:
"My neighbor pulled up in the driveway in a brand-new car, top-of-the-line. I went over to admire it. My neighbor asked if I could help him unload. I could see that his new car was packed with new stuff. As he grabbed one end of a 60 inch TV & I grabbed the other, I commented to him, 'Somebody just got a big promotion!' 'No', my neighbor replied, 'actually, I just got laid off.' --- I nearly dropped my end of the TV. 'You see', he continued, 'I figured I better buy my new car & all of this nice stuff now, because as soon as the creditors learn I'm out of work, my credit will be no good.' My protests died in my mouth when I realized that my neighbor had simply done with his situation what Obama, Pelosi & Reid have done with our nation's economy."

Best Regards & thanks for pulling the Orlando Tea Party together,
J.M.Payne

Greetings All.
Count Me and Mine all in.

I have been warning people for the past several years something like this was gonna happen. And for years now, people just looked at me and thought I was crazy.

When it became obvious that the liberal based media would help in Obama buying the Oval Office. I sounded warnings to anyone who would listen. For the past couple of years I have been talking about the Socialist - Communist Agenda of not only Barack Obama, but the entire liberal left.

And still people looked at me and people thought I was being either a racist or I was simply crazy.

I wish I had been crazy. But now is not the time for wishing, whining, crying or complaining.

Those times ended on Nov 8th, 2008.

NOW my friends, is the time for doing. Now is the time to take back out Country, our Constitution and Liberties. Now is the time to clean house, and take these politicians who think they rule our lives, who think they run things, and remind they that THEY work for We The People. It is time to remind these politicians that the only thing they really run is their mouth, and then it's nothing but lies that they spew out anyway.

A couple hundred years ago, it would have been past due time to march on the capitol with pitchforks, tar, feathers and a few flaming torches.

Deep down inside my gut, I wonder if that time of pitchforks, tar and feathers, is really so out of the question nowadays.

See you all on Mar 21 for the Orlando Tea Party.

Hi, two things:

1. Can you post how close you are in terms of raising the money for the event? Some of us want to help but are VERY cash-strapped so it would help to know just how close we really are!

2. Senator Mel Martinez just sided with Obummer. Martinez supports the liberal argument that basically those who doubt Obummer's citizenship, and therefore the legitimacy of his presidency --- should all just go away and be quiet. Conservatives need to THROW MEL MARTINEZ OUT !

3. These tea parties are just a dry-run for the one hundred million man march on DC. Los Federales will certainly invoke martial law at that point and start commiting crimes against individual activist citizens. Look for a Nationwide 'Waco' type incident in the coming months. 50 THOUSAND people rioted yesterday in NYC. Anarchy is here. Atlas has already shrugged!

The unpaid debt will lead to bankruptcy of banks, which will have to be nationalized, and the State will have to take the road which will eventually lead to communism.”

If we give everyone health care we'll end up like Canada where everyone gets health care and that is not good.

Up until this year I had considered myself a "bleeding heart" liberal democrat. However, since January 20, 2009, I have watched our consititution be pushed aside for the egotistical and narcissistic ideas of politions who are intent on destroying this great nation of our. I have renounced my party affiliation and now am a registered Independent.

I am probably on the governments "hit list" because I have continually written our politicians to express my concern and frustration at what I see happening in our once great nation.

I must say, that I never really apprecaited President Bush until now. I do so apoligize for the negative things that I have expressed about him. As the saying goes, "you never really know what you have until it is gone."

I have read through your guestbook and one thing jumps out at me after reading the comments that people left. Apparently, because I do not share your views, I am not a "true American" or a "real American".

I find that strange, for many reasons, among them that I served in the United States Army for 7 years, how many people on this list can claim to have served in the armed forces?

I pay my taxes, I vote, I own stocks, and property, yet my views are different than yours so I am not "real" or "true".

I think instead of all of you gathering at Lake Eola on the 21st and bashing our current government maybe the lot of you should focus on helping America become whole again. Let's stop trying to separate it and divide it so that the conservative right can "take it back" and focus on how to make it, what were the words used, I think it was ..."one nation under god". Let's focus on the one nation part and not make it two nations.

What is the republican plan, pretend for just a minute that the election had gone the other way. Would my GM stock be worth $100 a share today, that would be nice. Would I not have to worry that my bank is going to collapse tomorrow?

Doug-

Obama sucks and the democrats are going to ruin the country.

there are probably more people on this board that served than you think.

Dont ever say I am not for america. You do not speak for me. You never will.

First of all- come off your high horse, thanks for serving, but dont bash those who didnt and try to make them feel bad they they have not served. Dont play the "I served in the ___ what have you done?" card. You should try to be humble. What matters is that you, and others, make your mark on the map somehow. You can do it through church, business, charity, military, whatever.

You wanna know what would be different?

The government would not have 1) Signed legislation closing Gitmo 2) Authorized funding for foreign abortions. 3) Probably would not have had a tax cheat in charge of the IRS, or other tax cheats in the admin. 4) Drilled for oil in our own boundaries. 5) We would probably have spent money, but nothing as WRECKLESS as what we are seeing now. 6) Say yes to Cuba and NO to Columbia, one of our staunch allies.
7) We would not have meet with Syria. A country that was, and probably still is contributing to the deaths of our troops in Iraq.

It is your fault you invested in such a crappy car company, not others. GM would have tanked under a McCain presidency as well. Because they suck.

Get a new bank.

How many protests happened under Bush? And now you want to be united? I do not agree with your views. But I will not call you an outcast.

Want my solution for getting america out of the mess?

1) Cut taxes...everywhere. This includes the wealthy, or, most of the job creators in this country. Cutting taxes has ALWAYS led to getting out of a recession. Pass the Fair Tax, a consumption based tax. Work should NEVER be taxed. 2) Let stupid companies (like GM) fail. Others should take its place, at least that's how it is supposed to work. 3) You wanna hand out money fine. Lets give it to entrepreneurs who want to start a business that MAKES stuff. 4) Impose term limits on ALL elected officials.

To the Orlando Tea Party, in general assembly represented:

Whereas, it would be irresponsible, for I, an average citizen, to recklessly take on a higher burden of debt than I and my family assembled could reasonably could pay down, and,

Whereas, it would be illegal, for I, an average citizen, to knowingly and falsely state a higher family income and assets, and to knowingly and falsely understate family debt and liabilities, to influence the actions of lenders and the market driven economy in general, and,

Whereas, it would be immoral, for I, an average citizen, to selfishly burden the future generations of Americans with a debt that will cripple the economic engine of progress, prosperity, and peace, both at home and abroad, and,

Whereas, our government OF the people, BY the people, was divinely inspired by GOD, FOR the people, and,

Whereas, our government is taking on a burden of debt that it can not reasonably pay down, and,

Whereas, our government is manipulating the financial data on the cost of the stimulus programs and yearly Federal budget, and

Whereas, our government is enslaving future generations of Americans, with liberal social agendas, policies, and legislation,


Therefore, be it resolved that OUR government must abide the PEOPLE, further that OUR government must RESPECT the will of the PEOPLE, and not least, OUR government must act AS the PEOPLE,

So that OUR GREAT nation shall not perish from this earth.

Doug,
We are grateful for your service to our country, your paying taxes, voting, owning stock and property, you almost sound conservative.

May I suggest you attend and see how many veterans are present and how they will be honored and remembered. A true veteran does not place himself above those who did not serve. This country was built by patriots and it looks like it will have to be done again.

I will be there "with bells on" - LIBERTY BELLS! The Constitution of the United States of America, once the hub of American law and freedoms, has been moved to the position of the hub cap. It has become merely an ornamental relic that serves no real function other than that of making the American people feel as if the document still matters to those who govern.

It appears that the modern electorate chooses their leaders for the same purpose that they attend a magic show. Their actual desire seems to be that the performer deceive them.

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!

I am so sick of people complaining about our government, but not doing anything about it. They feel helpless, useless, or just plain angry, but feel there is nothing they can do. Well guess what? You CAN do something about it! Make your voices heard by attending events like this, writing your elected leaders, emailing, and melting the phone lines telling those in power your thoughts. A good resource for contact information is found here: http://www.ourcountrydeservesbetter.com/issues/stopstimulus.html

The silent majority can no longer stay silent! Our voices must be heard! Do not think that when we melt the phone lines, flood their mail boxes, and gather to raise our voices that it will not be heard. Remember that it is WE the People who are responsible for our elected officials future employment, and if we are loud enough, they will soon realize their jobs are on the line.


Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- AND THAT GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE, SHALL NOT PERISH FROM THE EARTH. (emphasis mine)President Abraham Lincoln

God Bless America and God Bless all the brave men and women who have fought for our freedoms and are currently putting themselves in harms way to defend this great country!!!

Doug,

I realize we may not share the same political views, but I know we both love America. I thank you for your service to our country and all who have served our country and kept us safe. If I could meet you face to face, I would personally thank you.

For me, this protest is to reclaim our country. I am sick of everything being about the democrats or the republicans and their agenda. It is time for our agenda. This is the awakening of WE THE PEOPLE.

My problem is with the destruction of capitalism and wealth distribution and taxes, taxes, taxes. The mantra that the rich need to pony up and be patriotic makes me cringe. They already pay most of the taxes. Does anyone really think it is okay to demonize the rich and then be hypocritical and not get mad at our government? The rich have never taken anything from me. They have never stolen money out of my paycheck. The government does it to me every 2 weeks. They also do it to me every time I fill my gas tank. At least when I buy a gallon of gas from Exxon I am getting a product from them, but then the government slaps on an extra 60 cents for something they didn't even produce and then proceed to waste that money through all their bureaucracy. As you know, I could go on and on with the list of taxes we pay on everything, but I think I would just get really depressed if I ever added it up.


I don't mind paying taxes, but when they just keep raising the taxes because they have spent our money unwisely, then I have to say at some point enough is enough. They have raided my Social Security. I will be lucky if there is anything left when I retire. We are so broke, we depend on China to help us spend more money. My children cannot afford this government, whether it be republicans or democrats...they are both at fault. We have to do something now, because universal health care and cap and trade will be the straw that broke the camel's back.

Next weekend, we will be having a Tea Party. (remember Boston?)

We want to make our politicians hear loud and clear that we are tired of the bailouts, the wasteful Washington spending and the push towards the socialization of this country!

Let’s quit talking amongst ourselves, and venting about things we believe is destroying our nation, and DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

We are exposed to “polls” every time they want us to believe they are doing what their constituents ask for, so why don’t we give them a “poll” and SHOW THEM what we want.

Quit counting check marks, and start counting heads. Show up and be counted. Quit letting them represent you according to polls, and represent your self.

We’ve gotten to this point because we just accept what comes our way, and only complain between ourselves, for fear of being “picked on” by the perpetrators. That’s Political Correctness
at the root...... but they can spend “your money” any way they feel led, turn a deaf ear to your complaints, and month by month chisel away at the foundation of your homeland.

Get up, step up, sign up, speak up, or in the end... you will be fed up with where we have ended up.

We have the right to exercise our freedom of speech, and voice our opinion of how “OUR LEADERS” are doing their jobs. ( or not doing them)

Lisa, we heard about your Tea Party up here in the Maine woods, I would like to join you in Florida but the greedy and corrupt polititions who in their infinate malseasance have squandered our money and reduced my personal savings by more then sixty two percent have caused me and my family to curtail all travel and other enjoyments we have worked and saved for, so that the GOVERNMENT can give our hard earned money to the Illegal alians and the people who refuse to work because the governmemt is subsidizing their lives while doing great harm to ours! ( what about ILLEGAL the Washington polititions don't understand! They, who enacted the law and who refuse to allow our lawenforcemant to enforce the same laws).
This great effort of yours should be a prelude to millions of us marching on Washington ASAP and demanding reform and telling that discusting group of incompantants that they work for us, not the outher way around and that they are living and working at our expense!
Whether Democratic or Republican they all seem to be cut from the same cloth, greed and self enrichmant, making sure that they and their party stay in power to the detriment of us serfs, there is no difference between thses two parties and the communist party, in that thay choose those who will be voted into office.
I am left with one burning question, WHERE WAS OBAMA BORN AND WHERE IS HIS REAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE?
All those in Government have sworn to up hold and defentd the CONSTITUTIN OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA from all enimies forign and domestic and the CONSTITUTION requires that the President must be born in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! If there is a question of the legitimacy of said birth then it is incumbent upon all branches of our government to verify HIS place of birth! If found to be fraudulent all those involved should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Good luck, LETS MARCH ON WASHINGTON THIS YEAR BEFORE ALL OUR MONEY IS GONE AND OUR CONSITUTION IS COMPLETLY TRASHED! LETS THROW THE BUMS OUT AND START ANEW.

We need to physically march to be of any consequence in changing the direction of this govenment. They ignore small gatherings of the people and feel we are of no consequence to them, they fear us not and laugh, keeping their high paying jobs with the best health care our money can buy. Passing pay increases for them selves while my retirement has not given me a COLA since 1997. THINK ABOUT IT. WE ARE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT. LETS DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT NOW!

First, let me say to you, Lisa Feroli, who created this organization, thank you. Finally, I don't feel alone in my struggle and my frustration as to how to open up America's eyes, and to alert them to the fact, of where the current administration is taking our beautiful nation. Straight into socialistic governing.
We, as American citizens, have a responsibility to preserve "Our Liberty", and any threat to "Our Liberty" deserves a very serious response, not fancy showmanship or enormous pay-offs, at the taxpayers expense.
We, the people, are the only ones who can change this.
George Washington once said, in regards to Our America, Land of the Free... "the love of liberty is interwoven within every ligament of American hearts". (American Patriots Almanac) There is another mention from that inspiring book that I feel I must share,
"Poverty and Desperation make fertile ground for would-be-dictators."
Let us take a lesson from Patrick Henry in his “Liberty or Death” speech.
“The time has come for the American People to gather their strength and commit themselves to action.” Or the dedication on the Jefferson Memorial, which reads, “Men who will not fight for liberty, will lose it.”
We can not let that happen. I will be attending the event and I have sent an invite to everyone I know. To advise everyone and anyone who wants a better America, to be there also.
Thank you again for your dedication to this very serious and very worthy cause. God Bless You, Lisa.

Why would you seal every record about yourself. spend nearly 1Million dollars in legal fees over a $20. document, If you don't have something to hide.

He/She then allows me to sell the employees and the customers. I simply ask "Do you believe in our Constitution, freedom and liberty? Are you against our government giving our money to Wall St. (If positive feedback hand them the flyer)? This Saturday at Lake Eola. The Orlando Tea Party! We are going to unite and take back our country! Government is out of control and if we do not stand together we will break apart. Please visit OrlandoTeaParty.com, send a link to all your contacts and bring your family, friends and coworkers to Lake Eola. Print more flyers and pass them out. This is happening across the country and there is going to be a huge turn out this Saturday." That's the basic pitch and I talk pretty fast so I can get to the next person quickly. As people overhear they approach me and ASK for a flyer. They are so happy to find someone else that thinks the way they do. The conversations concerning our deteriorating Constitution and government spending actually have started crowds at Wal-Mart. Many people are already aware of sending tea bags to Washington in April. I've handed out and talked to over 100 people. It's very exciting and fun to meet other people who have had enough of big government! I hope this helps. Also, you have got to see the movies at RestoreOurRights.Blogspot.com. The newly released movie, "The Obama Deception" is AWESOME! This site has a complete collection of all freedom movies, clips, videos, websites etc. Unite Now! Support H.R.1207. Let's show Washington who is really in charge! Good luck to everyone! See you Saturday!

This is not about Republican or Democrat, left or right. It's about right or wrong, freedom or socialism. Where in our Constitution does it say the government has the right to TAKE the peoples money and give it to private corporations? The news is now flooded with these AIG bonuses protests. Americans are livid about $165 Million? You have got to be kidding me. What about the $130 Billion that was handed over to AIG no questions asked? Nobody is throwing a fit about the Trillions we are going in debt so Obama can take care of his friends on Wall St. I dare anybody to count to a trillion. I'll check on you in 30,000 years! WAKE UP America! Your government is stealing from you. Speak up! Unite!

Well done Lisa. I cannot be at the tea party unfortunately. My niece has just been diagnosed with diabetes and I will be walking for a cure at Cocoa Beach this Saturday. I did make a donation however. I am, like everyone else I am sure, very concerned about the Organize for America campaign being launched by B. Hussein Obama. Perhaps the organizers of the various tea parties or websites similar to this one could use the email addresses of the attendees/respondents to create a database of potential volunteers to mount a counter grass roots campaign. If this is feasible, consider this my written consent to use or distribute my email address for this cause.

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other". -- John Adams, October 11, 1798

A couple of guests (posers, perhaps) brought up the issue of health care as a right or a privilege. The Left uses that to distract us from the real issue: freedom vs control. What the gov’t provides, it controls. We must not let the opposition define the debate. May I suggest replies like the following?

“Freedom of religion is a right, not a privilege; so, am I entitled to have gov’t build me a church (while I just put a small co-pay in the offering plate)?”

“Freedom of speech is a right, not a privilege; so, the gov’t will rent the Bob Carr Auditorium for me (with a $40 co-pay)?”

“Freedom of the press is a right, not a privilege; so, can I take out a full-page ad in the Orlando Sentinel & be reimbursed by the gov’t (except for a $20 co-pay)?”

“Keeping & bearing arms is a right, not a privilege; so, I should be able to walk into a gun store & get a gun at gov’t expense (with a $25 co-pay)?”

We like freedom of religion, speech, the press & self-defense. Why not freedom in healthcare? If our semi-socialist health care system isn’t working well, why is the only possible solution a fully socialist one? Why don’t we put our faith in freedom, & our trust in each other, instead of submitting to the gov’t hand?

As a note to Jake, who says that as a fact the Boston Tea Party was to protest a "TAX CUT" on a corporation, that is correct as far as you went. But that tax cut was given to the British East India Company in an effort to get colonists to buy British goods as they were (at that point) cheaper than the goods they had taxed in the colonies. It was not comparable to the tax cuts that we want (and should have) today. So when you start quoting "facts", be sure you don't twist them into being unrecognizeable.

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation.

where was all of this outrage during the Bush administration years? the Bush administration did more to morally corrupt and financially bankrupt the average american than anything that President Obama has proposed to date. the Bush administration laws hurt most of you on this website yet you were silent and were told to (and did) walk in lockstep with Bush and his corporate welfare initiatives. you were told to support tax cuts that didn't benefit most of your. how is it that conservatives / right wingers favored billions / trillions of dollars being sent to iraq and afghanistan to fund the "war on terror" yet there is this "outrage" when initiatives are proposed to invest in america. come on, people, it doesn't make sense. republicans are very quick to decry someone not being patriotic but there is nothing more patriotic than taking care of your own and not just the rich. finally, there is nothing more patriotic than supporting your president. Glenn, Rush, Hannity, BUD...they are not patriotic...they are hypocrites who hide behind the mic and only criticize and get the average american citizen's blood boiling and against laws and policies that benefit those very same average americans. if you are going to be upset, be upset at the right people and for the right reasons, and most importantly, think for yourselves.

Our government has grown too big. It's not right or left. It's about out Constitution. This was supposed to be our servant government. They have seized too much power from the people. They don't listen to us anymore. They tell us how it is going to be like we are too stupid to take care of ourselves. We are taxed to the hilt and both parties spend our money like crazy. These wars are wrong and Obama is wrong. They should listen to the people. That is what our founders died for. So we can be free and have individual liberty not to be taken care of by our government from cradle to grave. If you are really interested in the truth click the link above. And please pursue the truth. Don't just believe what the media tells you. This is a Revolution! We are going to take back our country from these power hungry, spendaholic, wealthy so called representatives. This is our country not theirs. We the people will prevail! Good luck to you both and I hope you will join us in taking back our country.

In our Lifetime there are many important moments. the journey we are about to take could be not only the most important in our lifetime but also the most important moment for our children, grandchildren and generations to follow! Not only is this moment important to America but it is also important to the entire World. America is the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave. We must prevail or evil will consume the World.

I'm not the only educator that believes we waste to much. What we need is consistency in spending with school budgets.

We must teach social responsibility. We must promote civic pride. We must stop wasteful spending and not tolerate BIG government.

Thank GOD for opportunities and finally the resolve of patriotic Americans to band together so that their voices may at last begin being heard as one. It's not too late to take back our country, but if nothing is done it soon will be. In the words of the great 21st century philosipher Larry the Cable Guy, "Get-R-Done."

Remember to pray today. Remember to be peaceable. You are praciticing your constitutional right to redress your goverment of your grievances today, protected under the God Given right to free speech under our Constitution. Almighty God, we ask your divine protection upon our protest. We know you have helped armies in battle against all odds throughout history. We head out under the banner of the Cross and the American flag, and pray your hand will guide our protest and open the eyes of those who would not see the destruction in our country. I ask your blessings and travel mercies on all who are attending. In your precious name, AMEN!!!!

Many of our grandparents left their parents and relatives behind to escape the rule of socialistic countries and to become citizens of America. Their children and grandchildren fought wars for the freedom to VOTE PRIVATELY, the opportunity to EARN a living and the RIGHT to BELIEVE, MENTION and PRAY to GOD or gods everywhere...anytime.

Right now Hitler would be very proud of our government not our grandparents.

PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW THIS! - Your tax dollars pays the interest that the government borrows from the Federal Reserve only. The Federal Reserve was implemented by private shareholders to create debt and make money off the American people for government loans. The more the government borrows from the Fed, the more interest is owed, therefore, higher taxes to pay the interest. The top shareholders of the Federal Reserve are anonymous! They are reaping the benefits of the suffering of the American people. WATCH PART III OF THE MOVIE ZEITGEIST!!!!

Obama is getting ready to start picking for the supreme court. He is also trying to sneak through the Fairness Doctrine by calling it Diversity on the Airways, which is just a way to silence his opponents. Us. His true colors showed immediately on what he thinks of human life by overturning everything President Bush did to protect life.

People just need to do the right thing. If people did the right thing jails would be less crowded, there would be less people being supported by government because the father or mother doesn't want to take care of the children they birthed, less people living off unemployment because they really don't want to work. The church, which is we the people, need to quit sitting on their holy pews and get involved in the political process. How can you call yourself a follower of Christ and vote for someone who is against everything you believe or don't vote at all. I have many christian friends who voted for this far leftist who doesn't care if his own grandchildren were to be aborted. My life has not been perfect and I have made decisions that were not good or maybe even not the right thing, but the greatest thing about being a christian and an American is you can always start over.
Thank you all who are physically able to go today and to those who aren't there, but are praying for our nation.
God Bless America, this is OUR GREAT COUNTRY!!!!

Thank you for giving a forum to voice our outrage at the arrogant disregard for the constitution and freedom. This latest hypocritical outrage about AIG would be funny if it was not so sad. If congress does not take the time to read a bill that it signed into law, how can they blame the recipients for receiving what was passed by congress in the first place! Pathetic excuse for public servants.

Remember we get to vote many of these people out in 2010 who supported the stimulus package. This action needs to start now. Why aren't there term limits on these people, when the governor and the president have term limits. We had a mayor in our town for 18 years. The good ole boys kept getting him re-elected until last year when the people finally moved forward and voted in a new mayor. Term limits need to happen everywhere.

so, let me get this straight, Ginny. u are equating Obama to Hitlter? please provide facts for this. i don't see President Obama rounding up any Jews and placing them in concentration camps or denying you any of your rights or claiming that the african american race is the great and only race. please make sound arguments and do not regurgitate talk radio talking points. it is easy to feign outrage and be a part of the problem, but it takes courage to be a part of the solution. Bush took away your rights and actually grew your gov't using a conservative agenda (i.e., cutting taxes), pro-business policies - the trickle down that didn't trickle to the middle or poor), and starting wars that were not justified.

the state of our economy is due to a republican agenda fronted by rush, hannity, beck, and BUD). if u want to be outraged turn off your radio and fox. start listening to all sides and not automatically dismissing the President because the radio tells u so.

again, people weren't up in arms when the Bush Administration reduced us to deficit spending in the name of security and the war on terror, but how can people get upset when we are investing in america. it doesn't make sense. these are things that have been neglected for far too long. how is it socialistic to invest in your own country? how is it socialistic to want kids to have a good education? or good healthcare(healthcare that u choose by the way).

the anger just doesn't add up. - raiines

"I have spoken of the Federalists as if they were a homogeneous body, but this is not the truth. Under that name lurks the heretical sect of monarchists. Afraid to wear their own name, they creep under the mantle of Federalism, and the Federalists, like sheep permit the fox to take shelter among them, when pursued by dogs. These men have no right to office. If a monarchist be in office, anywhere , and it be known to the President, the oath he has taken to support the Constitution imperiosly requires the instantaneous dismission of such office; and I hold the President criminal if he is permitted such to remain. To appoint a monarchist to conduct the affairs of a republic, is like appointing an atheist to the priesthood." (Thomas Jefferson, From a newspaper letter, June 1803; Paul Leicester Ford, ed., The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, 10 vols. [New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1892-99], 8:237.) Remember, the Monarchists Jefferson are talking about wanted a King or Centralized government such as Socialist or Communist. These terms were not used in his day.

It warms my heart whenever I hear of Americans getting out to protest for what they believe in, but I have to wonder: where were you all in these past 8 years? To the people talking about the loss of our civil liberties: where were you when we actually started to lose them to the Patriot Act?

The Tea Parties are marred by partisan politics. This feels like a dying gasp from a conservative party that has fallen out of touch with the people. This is lamentable, because we need a strong conservative party--we need a real conservative party. One that actually focuses on conserving not just the ideals that get them re-elected, but the state of the nation. That does not mean making the rich richer, which is the Republican track record. The rich will become richer naturally; they have the resources to invest and create, to buy into wealth generating markets. They do not need government (Republican or Democrat, conservative or liberal) to make this process easier.

We face a crisis unprecedented in most of our lifetimes. The economy is in a tenuous position, and there is no guaranteed cure. Spending money to create jobs seems as good a shot as we have of bolstering our financial state. Public works (be they dog parks or road repair) create jobs. They don't have to be permanent jobs, we don't have to create new careers--we simply have to weather this storm and make sure that all of America makes it through with us. People need to work. People need to have money to spend. But we can't let the market collapse around us, so bailouts become the necessary evil.

Our economic failures are the failures of a financial system that has moved away from the value of company to the perceived value of a company. They are the failures of a system where someone can become rich by creating rumors and causing companies to fail. They are the failures of a system that allows a corporation to buy bad loans and pass them off as good loans, based on the AAA rating that they received from one of their own companies. Greed has not been managed and regulated.

Socialism is being thrown around like a curse word. Does love thy neighbor not extend to help thy neighbor? Is it bad to have some sort of available health care for all? The phrases "my tax dollars" and "borrowing from our children/grandchildren" are meaningless. Your tax dollars always get used for something, and I'd wager that a great majority of it is spent on things that you do not personally approve of. As a debt-based economy (the entire world is a debt-based economy), we are routinely borrowing from future generations. This is nothing new.

How many of you have a background in economics? Or a working knowledge of Constitutional law that extends beyond your favorite amendments? Ignorance is largest problem we face as a society, but partisanship says "you don't need to learn, listen to the people in your chosen party. They will tell you what to do."

For how long will we simply exchange one master for the next? How long will we engage in willful ignorance and base our decisions on nebulous moral stances? The people are being used. We are always being used in this political game to return to power those who claim to share our beliefs and our best interests. When was the last time you were truly represented, rather than simply having politicians pay lip-service to you?

Hope everyone will plan to attend a Glenn Beck viewing "We Surround Them" gathering on April, 17 at Kool Katz Grill and Pub in Kissimmee. It's a followup to the one on March 13.

raiines,

Who are you trying to convince? Health care and education for everyone is socialist. Our Constitution does not say freedom, liberty and health care. This is the land of opportunity NOT the land of we'll take care of you. Socialism doesn't work. I wish you would not defend it. If you do not believe in individualism, freedom and the Constitution then why don't you vent on a socialist or communist website. Democrats and Republicans BOTH have run this country into the ground. Obama is just finishing us off. And unless we unite big government will win and there will be tyranny. Seriously, either join the fight to restore our rights and quit complaining or get lost. By the way YES you are a socialist. If you want better health care then buy it yourself. If you want better education then buy it yourself. If you want to force the rest of us to pay for these things then YOU ARE A SOCIALIST/COMMUNIST. Move to Cuba and enjoy!

Glad we came! What a pleasure to be with like minded, freedom loving, and capitalist supporting people. This country can overcome this current government's move to Socialism, but only with the voice of the people who attended today's rally shouting out NO MORE!!! We can and will drown out the whining and agenda driven groups whose goal is to take away our freedoms.

Now our economy is being destroyed by printing Obama-bucks galore. Look at how our dollar has dropped in the last week against the Euro, by 10% as the first of these trillion dollar give aways are starting to enter into the marketplace. Wake up people!

I can't wait for the next tea party. I just hope that we can afford to drive to Orlando a month from now. Talk to your friends and coworkers and get them outraged as you are and let's make the next event 10 times larger so maybe we can get somebody to pay attention to us.

The Party was great! I look forward to the next event. I recommend this.

I saw the party covered on ch 9 & 13.

Both Ch 2 & 6 didn't cover it.

If you remember back when the messiah came campaigning, they were all out there fighting for elbow room. So, I believe we should issue fair warning to these nonparticipating channels that we want coverage. If not, we should organize a picket of their stations, and notify ch 9 & 13 of it, so they can cover us picketing the biased and "unfair," channels. Unfortunately, we need the media to spread the word; the internet's great, but many still watch the networks....even Fox 35 didn't show up...
Yes, I believe, we should take a page out of OBama's playbook and more or less "coerce," the media into coverage for our next event "15 April?"

I believe raiines has had enough explanation; sorry dude, agigtation won't unhinge this crowd. That may work for Obama trying to win over homeless votes via ACORN and a crisp $10, but the folks here are true, real, and devout Americans. The problem with liberals is they cannot grasp that; and it incites fervor and jealousy. Sit back, read again the answers some posters here provided. If you still cannot comprehend the message of OBama's not good for the country, attend the next rally and,...oh, talk to the 9 yr old girl who spoke aloud to the crowd....she may have to bring it down to a liberal understanding level, but I feel she'll do it. Why? Because at 9, she's already more of a Patriotic American than anyone supporting Obama! For icing on the cake, a "typical," Obama supporter "had to," show up....fat, sloppy, unkempt....had no facts or knowledge to back up his claims...got boo'd out of the joint, and rightfully so; he was an agigtator. He stunk of libealism; and all it stands for...but, I bet he could get to the last level on "Doom" or "Space Invaders...." since most OBama supporters appear to live and thrive in an altered reality.

Oh yeah..forgot to add one thing. Although I didn't see our Tea Party covered on the national news, NBC did manage to provide coverage to a bus load of (~50 people) dipstick ACORNERS that felt compelled to go to an AIG executive's home and act like fools on his front lawn...WOW! 5000 of us gathered in the heart of a popular city with a well organized event...and somehow, this busload of entitlement leeches find out the name and address of one guy who took a bonus, and they get the coverage....I wonder of the OBama adminstration "accidently," let ACORN have this address......and for it to make National News over our tea party, reestablishes the fact that the media is heavliy biased toward the liberals.....we have our work cut out for us.

Lisa - I have a recommendation as well, since the crowd was overwhelming as far as trying to sign the "scroll," will there be an opportunity to stop by the station and sign it? Since a lot of us live here in Orlando, by kid really wanted to sign it..but the line was long...how about we delay mailing it for awhile, to gather more signatures? Maybe Bud would go for that....

The turn out was great! Most of the people I talked to had heard about the event by word of mouth, which only goes to show you that if the media was doing there job there would have been standing room only in the streets of downtown Orlando. All the local news channels I tuned into via the TV or intenet prior to the event were sure to cover the Winter Park Art Fesitval in their local events calendar" but not a word about the Tea Party.

To all you Liberals out there, be afraid, very afraid of what is happening to America and remember the folks at the tea party are fighting for YOU too. Seek the truth!

I was disgusted at the lack of coverage by our local media! Judith is right...if this is what we can do with just word of mouth...think of what is to come! We are awaking the Sleeping Giant - the heart of America!

That was a great event! Thank you Lisa. It's good to be among people who believe in freedom and the Constitution. However I met many people who seam to think we need to bomb Iran and pick up where Bush left off. I wish people would investigate the truth and look at the big picture. Wars, spending, taxing, regulating, entitlements and control over the people are all against the Constitution. Clinton, Bush and Obama hurt this country. Almost all of our Representatives are out to take care of themselves. They don't care about us. WAKE UP! We the people need to take back control of this government. PLEASE research the truth before you make up your mind. I once cheered on Bush and the illegal wars he started. Now I know the truth. You can too. Click on the red link above. Go to RestoreOurRights.Blogspot.com. Watch ALL of the movies, videos and TV shows listed on the left. Educate yourself. Research the facts. Do what's right not what you are told is right but what is actually RIGHT! STOP following presidents. QUIT looking for someone to show you the way. Look within yourself for the answers.

We must continue this fight to RESTORE OUR CONSTITUTION! We are the last standing country in the world that gives power to the people. If we loose it will be tyranny for the world. This is much more then being taxed. Our monetary system is under assault and on the verge of collapses. Our borders are being opened up for the North American Union. The CFR, IMF and the World Bank are looking for a new world dollar or maybe the Amero or the Euro to replace our money. With one world currency can come a New World Order and trust me we do not want a one world government. Still think the New World Order is a conspiracy theory or myth? Time and NewsWeek have both done cover stories on what our government thinks has to happen to save us from a depression. We must unite and defend our Constitution! Unite or die. Stand for freedom or lay down for slavery.

Watch every video on this website with an open mind then research the facts for yourself.

Terry Osborn,

If you want to know what you can do to get back our country go to RestoreOurRights.Blogspot.com and read the intro. There is a list of things we all can do to restore our rights, liberty and freedom in America. I would also add to that list to join local grassroots activists and groups who believe in our Constitution. Good Luck!

I'm from Gainesville and wish I could have made the Party. The pictures look great! I'm trying to get a group of dedicated constitutionalists here in the Socialist Republic of Alachua County and do a Tea Party just to see what kind of reaction we can get out of the socialists.....maybe they'll hyperventilate or something. I have to say that I agree with Steve.....boot them all out and then start from scratch. When you look at what Congress, espcially those who've been there for more than 2 terms, has been up to, just about anyone else would be an improvement.

The Tea Party was GREAT! Our family was glad to be a part of it. The one irritation was that there was no media coverage prior to the event, and frankly, it seemed to us that the businesses and restaurants in the area were denied an opportunity to really shine. If they had been made aware, they could have embraced the event along with the rest of us - maybe even offered some specials as far as meals went - and they'd have been prepared for crowds. Talk about stimulus - these events could actually be a stimulus to local economies for the day if businesses in the area only knew in advance. As it was, we had a very nice late lunch/early dinner at a Cafe on Central. It took them quite a while to get orders out, though, because they had no prior knowledge of the event that was happening around the corner, and thus didn't have extra help working on Saturday.

I took my 75 year old father to the tea party and we both were really moved by the turnout. I have mostly felt like an outsider because I was not liberal. But, I cannot go against my core beliefs and it was a thrill to see so many people that agree with my views. I hope this is only the beginning of this movement, and I will do what ever I can to help. Please feel free to email me if you need anyone in Sumter County to help with this movement.

Our elected officials need to be held to a certain % approval rating. As a group if they fall below that rating level then the pay needs to be reduced by that level. Bringing huge amounts of pork into a district to sucure a vote and their job should be no longer allowed. Two years between elections gives them much to much time to do harm to "WE THE PEOPLE" They need to hear from us between elections. They need to work as a team and as a team hold each other accountable.

Lisa,
Thanks for the great job you are doing. I couldn't make it but will at the next. It's great to have a group of Patriots that I can become part of. One question though for our elected officials in Washington:

What have we learned in two millennia?

"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt
should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and
controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest
Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on
public assistance."

----CICERO - 55 BC

...Evidently nothing.

The Dream of America embraces the right of each individual to pursue their, LIFE, LIBERTY, and both, SPIRITUAL and MATERIAL PROSPERITY to the highest level of their abilities, to the benefit of themselves, their family, and the community in which they abide, so long as they do not interfere with the same rights of their fellow citizens.

"The Bill of Rights is a literal and absolute document. The First Amendment doesn't say you have a right to speak out unless the government has a 'compelling interest' in censoring the Internet. The Second Amendment doesn't say you have the right to keep and bear arms until some madman plants a bomb. The Fourth Amendment doesn't say you have the right to be secure from search and seizure unless some FBI agent thinks you fit the profile of a terrorist. The government has no right to interfere with any of these freedoms under any circumstances.

Government seems to operate on the principle that if even one individual is incapable of using his freedom competently, no one can be allowed to be free. "

I drove 300 miles from SW Georgia to attend the Orlando Tea Party. This was for my 4 children and 2 grandchildren. More important even than for them I was compelled to be there for my country. At 54 I've voted since 1972, but little more. After attending the event, signing the scroll and mailing my 7 letters to Washington, I finally feel like I have a voice and that I'm participating in something that will truly make a difference for my country.
Thank you, the organizers, who didn't wait for someone else to step up before taking a stand. You are appreciated and you are truly Great Americans. Together we will succeed in taking back America for its citizens and returning our country to the values and principles upon which it was founded.

A suggestion for continued action that each us can do every day and it's cheap. Pick your favorite slogan/comment/teaching point/web link(s). Print it (them) on business card size paper. Leave them in rest rooms, restaurants (with your paid bill), Malls, shops, etc. Spread the word. We do not have to put up with the corruption in government at all levels. We will not allow OUR Constitution to be trampled for much longer. We will not take it anymore. We will vote them out.

"We will not allow OUR Constitution to be trampled for much longer."

Too bad you Cons didn't feel that way when your beloved Great Decider was in office. You know, warrantless wiretapping, being held indefinitely without charges being filed, domestic spying on U.S. citizens, government access to library records, etc., etc.

Oh, please, don't break your arms patting yourselves on the back. The only thing you accomplished was successfully gathering a few thousand people for a "Bash President Obama" rally. Big deal.

You Cons are amazing. You give Bush and Cheney two terms to bring our country to the brink of collapse, any you cry and whine when President Obama can't kiss it and make it feel better within two months. Amazing.

Tossing aside your juvenile antics of calling President Obama names, what solutions have you offered other than "cut spending and cut taxes, especially for the wealthy." Where are the specifics of your plan for turning the economy around? Oh, that's right. It's much easier to cry (ala Glenn Beck, the new superhero of Fox News wingnuts) and throw around words like "socialist," "communist," "Marxist," etc., etc.

Hey Dumb Nut...

Speaking of Fox News, have you seen the latest ratings?

OUCH! That's got to sting! Where are the Luns? Oh yeah... near the bottom of the score card! Mr. O'Reilly alone, nearly tops all 3 the of the top Luns combined. Dang that cast on FoxNews must be doing something wrong! Maybe I'm reading it wrong. Are the ratings like golf, the lower your ratings the better you are? Just asking? I'm sure you're probably confused right now because I just threw some FACTS at you, but please hang with me. Maybe the Fox News people should be telling the News, the way they "wished" it was, stop reporting the FACTS, and by God, stop allowing people from both sides (D & R) from being on their shows, so we can decide what is right or wrong. Then we can spread the ratings around to everyone. Yeah that's the ticket, spread the ratings and kool-aid around; all hell, why we're at it, pass the bong too!

Now go back to your Xbox.

Join GOOOH.com today and become part of the solution to put Representatives back in Congress and kick the career politicians out!!

LEARN ABOUT GOOOH: http://www.GOOOH.com

GOOOH stands for 'Get Out of Our House' and is pronounced like the word 'go'. It is a NON-PARTISAN plan to evict the 435 career politicians in the U.S. House of Representatives and replace them with everyday Americans just like you.

GOOOH enables you to do four things you can't do today:

1. Run for Congress without raising millions of dollars
2. Truly participate in the selection of your Congressman
3. Replace career politicians with true representatives
4. Eliminate the influence of special interest groups in the election process

The GOOOH process allows Americans of every political leaning to nominate themselves or someone they know to run for Congress. Through GOOOH's Candidate Selection Sessions, you and your peers will select the candidate in your district that best represents your district's views. GOOOH will then fund the national election campaigns of all 435 candidates (one from each district) to run against the party politicians competing for each district seat. Because GOOOH is a process for selecting representatives (not an agenda-based party platform), we expect a very liberal candidate to be selected in San Francisco and a very conservative one in Colorado Springs -- but it will be up to the GOOOH members in each district to decide.

Hey DUDE - don't worry about "Double Naught," he fits his title;

Double naught = 00, twice as much as an ordinary zero...

It's typical liberal rhetoric; such as slamming Palin, Rush, Glenn Beck, etc. They're ashamed because they voted for Obama, based on ignorance of what he had planned for the country. They're (liberals) are a car salesman's dream; taking everything told to them via the MSM on face value. Just ignore him; he'll (if he has any remnants of a brain) will start to feel the tax sting...and begin to realize the wrong decision he made....see you April 15th, Double Naught...hey...that's tax day...

Double Naught, as far as you go...well, Bush kept us safe, but you know that. However, the economy faultered and the mortgage crisis began at the hands of the democratic congress about 2 yrs ago...remember? Up until that time, the job market was great, stock market was great, mortgage market was great.....enter the traitors PELOSI, DODD, OBAMA and FRUIT FRANK...and that's when things got bad...face it, you voted for an Anti-American agenda. You still have time to repent, and save your country, we welcome all converts to the right side.....When the traitor Pelosi and cronies wanted to give high risk minorities big loans for homes because they "deserved it," It was their right to have a home..just as you liberals believe it's a right for health care, an education...etc...all things! Got a tip for you, read the Bill Of Rights. These things OBama is passing and paying for with robbed tax dollars are "privileges." He's buying future votes now...soon, the government will collapse at the hands of the tax and spend Obama administration...oops, I guess stating the truth about that makes me a "hater..."
Go find an Obama - Messiah website, like Keith Olberman or that sexually confused Rachel MAddow..... Posters here are real Americans, that work for their money and believe in the Constitution and appreciate our American values...this is obviously foreign to you, so either conform to what's right for America (we'll forgive you) or fly away on your winged unicorn.

My family really appreciates what you are doing and even though I wasn't born in this country I grew up here and we follow the law and the waiting period to get in in the USA and that was back in 1965 when the laws were respected even by the leaders of this country and now they sold themselves to the Mexican goverments and others like them. I experience first hand what the socialism and dictarorship can do to the people and we can see the signs again and unless all of us do something is going to happen right here in the USA . Don't be fooled by the way O'bama talks or any other of the political parties , I have seen what Ron Paul is doing and yourselves and this is the first step to make them realize that the people of this country cannot be fooled by the small steps they are taking to control the people. Any of you who read in the past the DC Comics and what they wrote in them as far as the future , cameras , spying and any other technology it became a truth the future is here right now.

READY TO MARCH!! Mad as hell and not going to take it ANYMORE! Working hard to help make Punta Gorda Tax Day Tea Party a big sucess. However, I realize town protests will NOT be enough to turn the tide on this Congress and the new administration. EXTREMELY concerned about our democracy under the guise of Obama. Learning more and more every day of how much trouble our nation is in. Robin Stublen is our tax day tea party organizer in PG. Want to know if you know of plans for FLORIDIAN'S to march against Washington in the near furture. Please advise, perhaps we can announce march at our tax day event while we have (as of yesterday) about 700 to attend. Willing to work at accomplishing this march - we must not let a day go by without protesting this administration. Check out lewrockwell.com article and be sure to investigate how our tax $$ is going to ACORN and how they boast of their ability to benefit themselves. I could go on and on...but enough for now. Please advise ASAP. Thanks, Beth PS: GREAT JOB IN ORLANDO!!!

Yeah, you guys are right. it has been a little more than 2 month that Obama has been in office an he should have brought the economy back to perfect status.

And what is up with that bailout? I understood when Bush passed a bailout within a week, giving full power to Paulson to spend it on however he wanted it and giving some to the big threes even though neither congress or the senate approved. But that made complete sense. But now a bailout with restrictions? that is just madness.

And you guys are right, we cant let liberals take away our freedom like they are doing right now. The patriot act was needed and those little changes to override the constitution passed by the Bush administration were required. anyone can be a terrorist and terrorist should not have any rights. So screw the warrants. if the government deems it necessary we should follow blindly.

And what is up with that bailout? 3.27 trillion to save an economy that is going down in flame? Bush only increased the national debt by a little more than 4 trillion (without his bailout) and left a crumbling economy but he was right.

By the way, if you did not notice it (which i am pretty sure some of you did not) I was being sarcastic. No I am not a liberal, I am against big government but what i am even more against is hypocrite. I was against the first bailout and was standing alone. For you guys to say you are not affiliated to anyone is a joke. I voted for Bush the first time and it was a mistake. I am still a republican but it is people like you who will not allow themselves to accept a mistake has been made that disgust me.
The economy is down the drain, the country is not doing well and instead of helping raising the country up you are just sitting there, complaining, hoping that Obama fails so that you can prove some kind of points although millions are hurting. How is that patriotic?

Vincent, You must not have been at my house when I called all my senators and congressmen to vote NO on the first bailout. You must not have been around when I was telling everyone that the Patriot Act was taking away our freedoms in exchange for safety. So, I don't see how I am a hypocrite now because I see freedoms being taken away at the speed of light. You my friend are the hypocrite. You don't want to give up your freedom for safety, but you will give up your freedom for the economy.

Lynn, I do personally not see how your freedom is currently being taken away right now.
If as you say you were against the first bailout then my hat to you, but do not tell me that your freedom is being taken away as not difference have been made in the laws.

And as far as me being an hypocrite, i am not willing to give any of my freedom away, Benjamin Frankly said it best "He who gives up freedom for safety deserves neither"
Now you mention seeing freedom being taken away at the speed of light? Where exactly? if you were kind enough to cite an example in the last two month where your freedom as been taken away ( last two month since this group was not started before then, what are the odds that it exactly match the time of a new president)

To Vincent,
To ALL,


I can appreciate your point of view. However you referred to 'you guys' as if we are all affiliated with some group. The only 'group' this board should consist of is the group of American Citizens. This is not anti or pro Obama or Republican. The problem this country faces is not the huge list of screw ups Bush, Obama, Clinton or anyone else has done. It's the fact that they have had, continue to have and attempt to get more of the power they are not supposed to have under the Constitution.

No. I am not happy with some of the people that are using the Constitution to defend their single issue. It makes me worried when I meet someone against the spending and for the wars. You are either for the Constitution or you are a socialist. There is no in between. This country was founded under these principals and the Constitution should be follow strictly.

Our rights to firearms is supposed to be defended by our government. Instead they restrict us from them. Taking money from the people and giving it to private businesses is against the Constitution. Our Representatives are supposed to vote the people's will and they ignore us. This government is becoming tyrannical. They are making decisions for us because they feel they know what is best. Apparently we are to stupid. This has happened over and again repeatedly through history.

Too much power, too much empire, too much spending and control over the people has always resulted in the people being oppressed under their dictator. This government has passed the laws and executive orders that makes the the office of president a dictator. We are one riot, uprising, school shooting or 911 away from a complete authoritarian government. Police state and martial law are on the horizon if we do not unite and fight to restore our Constitution. Please, everyone, visit my site RestoreOurRights.Blogspot.com or just click the link above. Watch every movie and video and then determine if it is right and left politics.

Republicans and Democrats are the same. Look at the big picture. It's a scam. They never loose an election. The Bush's and Clinton's vacation together! It's like court, the prosecutor, defense and judge may all fight with each other and act like they disagree in court but after they are at the same bar or having dinner together. Right and left is to give us the illusion we are in control. Both sides have produced more government and less rights for the people. It's the system we have to fight not individuals and their issues.

Your friend in Liberty,

Andy

P.S. If you want to know what freedoms are being taken away please refer to the Patriot Act, Military Commissions Act and the fact that we are the ones that are going to have to work off this debt. Now if that's not a loss of freedom I don't know what is!

The time has come for Americans to stand up and be counted; no more burdensome spending which will lead to more and more taxes. The federal government is looking to raise taxes on everything, plus control more and more of the private sector. In a free market economy, we, the citizens of this country should work towards stopping the governmental takeover of our country and demand the federal government adhere to the Constitution.

Good morning and thank you for being concerned in the way our nation is going. In my 71 years I have seen we as a nation going astray from our founding, but not as much as during the last 100 days of Obama; It appears that he loves himself much more than he loves the GOD who placed him in this high position. As our Bible is clear in the fact that when we reject our Christian heritage and refuse to praise GOD and honour HIM in what we as a nation does...He will in turn reject us as a nation.

So any Pro-Life, anti-gay talk by the speakers at these rallies is a big turn off and from what I understand is not what these rallies were created for. Face it, the Republican party is a failure and I would not say they are any better than the current administration. They lied to us about Iraq. They were the first to offer a bailout to the banks. We need to rid Washington of most of our representatives who only are looking out for their own interests.

Are you having a July 4th Tea Party? If so, where, when. My only request is if there is gonna be one that we go to a place that has ample space, like the "Orange County Fair Grounds" as it is 1) "large" enough to host large Venu and also has plenty of 2) "Parking". I would like to see it be:
1) Cental Located
2) Large Enough to host l;ots more people
3) Must have large parking capabilities (Could charge $1.00 per car to park) which may help offset costs. Don't go higher than that.
4) "Family Oriented"
5) Entertainment that is family oriented for Adults and Children
6) Private Food Stands Throughout Hosted my local restaurants.
7) Games and family fun for children like face painting, etc.
8) Mini Carnival
9) No Alcohol on Premises
10) Lake Eola was best of previous Tea Parties but the parking was terrible. I got there about 5 minutes for the event started. I could not find a place to park. The stage area was packed yet many many cars drove by looking for parking. It could have beeb twice as large it parking were available. Just a thought.
11) Them should be to "Stop Government Healthcare" before it is too late.

In regard to "cap and trade" I just received the following email. There is a link to a petition to sign. I encourage everyone to do so.

Subject: What's next for the energy tax

Dear Myra,

It's not fun to lose. Unfortunately, that's what happened when the U.S. House passed the National Energy Tax on Friday night by a vote of 219-212 (Click here to see how your representative voted). But, losing forces us to take a hard look at where we are, so we can be ready for the next stage of this fight in the U.S. Senate. Today, we face 3 truths:

One - people are now paying attention, they're angry, and they want to act. Two - we need more people, in your state, on our side. Three - the time to begin recruiting is today.

The 219-212 vote was much closer than Speaker Pelosi expected, and 44 Democrats bucked their party and voted no. This is a testament to your efforts, and now we must do it again in the Senate.

Our vehicle is the "Stop the Energy Tax" campaign, which will allow us to reach, educate, and activate more people to make their voices heard in Washington.

Right now over 150,000 people have joined us. We must now double that for the Senate fight. If every petition signer recruits just one person, we'll hit our goal of 300,000.

Please take a moment and ask one person to sign the Stop the Energy Tax petition at www.americansolutions.com/energytax.

Or, if you have any other ideas for how to bring more people to our side, click here.

Because of the close vote in the House, Senators are already nervous about supporting the National Energy Tax. In fact, over the weekend Senator Claire McCaskill, a Democrat from Missouri said: "I hope we fix cap and trade so it doesn't unfairly punish businesses and families in coal dependent states like Missouri."

This shows there are Senators on the fence, and they can be pushed over the edge if enough of us are willing to act. Thank you for recruiting one person today, and we'll be in touch in the coming days to let you know other ways that you can help defeat this massive energy tax.

Thank you.

I don't know what to think of G. Beck anymore by the way, this releated to the "surround them" thing, I liked him at first until he wanted pictures of people who "surround"...."them"? Was a little stumped on that one. Since when do people want pictures, usually just a signature will do.

I agree with breitling. Glen beck is not
on the side of the tea parties. Listen
carefully to him and you will see. Why
did he have to start his 912. The tea
parties are no longer in charge but now
belong to FOX NEWS. this channel is
the most liberal news channel and is

Sally,
I can't think of more passionate news folks than O'Reilly, Hannity, Beck and Gretchen. I don't know what FOX News channel you're watching, but the channel they're on is definitely not liberal. Are you an Obama supporter? If so, you're in the wrong place.

Suzanne Kosmas just phoned with automated message. She will be at Avalon Park Welcome Center in Avalon Park Orlando FL tomorrow 7/18 from 11:00am to 1:00pm to answer any questions and concerns from her constituents. I confirmed this info with Avolon Park Welcome Center as correct. Everyone needs to get there to voice their concerns on healthcare.

My family will definitely be there. Congresswoman Suzanne Komas' DC office hung up the phone on me today when I voiced my opinion against the healthcare bill before taking down my information. We met Suzanne Kosmas on Saturday 7/18 at Avalon Park and her receptionist now denies her promise to go on the public option and slow down the bill. They can't tell me whetether she signed the letter to Pelosi from 21 of the 34 freshmen congressmen to stop ramming through the legislation. If you live in her district call her Washington office at (202) 225-2706 and voice your opinion.

DEADLY DOCTORS
O ADVISERS WANT TO RATION CARE

THE health bills coming out of Congress would put the de cisions about your care in the hands of presidential appointees. They'd decide what plans cover, how much leeway your doctor will have and what seniors get under Medicare.
Yet at least two of President Obama's top health advisers should never be trusted with that power.
Start with Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, the brother of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. He has already been appointed to two key positions: health-policy adviser at the Office of Management and Budget and a member of Federal Council on Comparative Effectiveness Research.

Emanuel bluntly admits that the cuts will not be pain-free. "Vague promises of savings from cutting waste, enhancing prevention and wellness, installing electronic medical records and improving quality are merely 'lipstick' cost control, more for show and public relations than for true change," he wrote last year (Health Affairs Feb. 27, 2008).

Savings, he writes, will require changing how doctors think about their patients: Doctors take the Hippocratic Oath too seriously, "as an imperative to do everything for the patient regardless of the cost or effects on others" (Journal of the American Medical Association, June 18, 2008).

Yes, that's what patients want their doctors to do. But Emanuel wants doctors to look beyond the needs of their patients and consider social justice, such as whether the money could be better spent on somebody else.

Many doctors are horrified by this notion; they'll tell you that a doctor's job is to achieve social justice one patient at a time.

Emanuel, however, believes that "communitarianism" should guide decisions on who gets care. He says medical care should be reserved for the non-disabled, not given to those "who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens . . . An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia" (Hastings Center Report, Nov.-Dec. '96).

Translation: Don't give much care to a grandmother with Parkinson's or a child with cerebral palsy.

He explicitly defends discrimination against older patients: "Unlike allocation by sex or race, allocation by age is not invidious discrimination; every person lives through different life stages rather than being a single age. Even if 25-year-olds receive priority over 65-year-olds, everyone who is 65 years now was previously 25 years" (Lancet, Jan. 31).

The bills being rushed through Congress will be paid for largely by a $500 billion-plus cut in Medicare over 10 years. Knowing how unpopular the cuts will be, the president's budget director, Peter Orszag, urged Congress this week to delegate its own authority over Medicare to a new, presidentially-appointed bureaucracy that wouldn't be accountable to the public.

Since Medicare was founded in 1965, seniors' lives have been transformed by new medical treatments such as angioplasty, bypass surgery and hip and knee replacements. These innovations allow the elderly to lead active lives. But Emanuel criticizes Americans for being too "enamored with technology" and is determined to reduce access to it.

Dr. David Blumenthal, another key Obama adviser, agrees. He recommends slowing medical innovation to control health spending.

Blumenthal has long advocated government health-spending controls, though he concedes they're "associated with longer waits" and "reduced availability of new and expensive treatments and devices" (New England Journal of Medicine, March 8, 2001). But he calls it "debatable" whether the timely care Americans get is worth the cost. (Ask a cancer patient, and you'll get a different answer. Delay lowers your chances of survival.)

Obama appointed Blumenthal as national coordinator of health-information technology, a job that involves making sure doctors obey electronically deivered guidelines about what care the government deems appropriate and cost effective.

In the April 9 New England Journal of Medicine, Blumenthal predicted that many doctors would resist "embedded clinical decision support" -- a euphemism for computers telling doctors what to do.

Americans need to know what the president's health advisers have in mind for them. Emanuel sees even basic amenities

I support this movement and hope it expands further than just focusing on the health care topic. Health Care is but one avenue this president and his cronies are using as a means to take over our country and mold it into a one party socialist state. Reagans own words in the 1960's warned that health care is the first thing that socialsists would use in attempting to transform our country into marxist control. I hope that the corruption surrounding this president would also become a national topic. ACORN and the SEIU and union bosses are all in bed along with the corporate payoffs with the likes of Goldman Sachs. All these orgs are part of a conspiracy of pay for play and Obama is at the center of it.

Is ObamaCare really nothing more than a cloaked form of REPARATIONS? It's something to think about, people.
This whole program is simply a means of spreading the wealth from hard-working producers to lazy consumers. And the truth is -- when you look at the winners and losers in this game -- it is nothing more than reparations. It is the way of the New Amerika under this VERY DANGEROUS president and his czars.

Hello Everyone, I too am a concerned American - passionate about keeping this country the way the founders planned it. I was at the march 21st tea party, I then went to washington dc for the july 4th rally, I then protested july 17th in front of an in nelson, martinez and mica's offices. I then protested outside nelson's office this last friday - and then went into the office to express my opinions. I had been trying all week to call nelsons office only to keep getting a constant busy signal. I also was told that nelson was out of the country on work for the intelligence committee - that he is due back about 8/24 -= that he currently has no plans for a townhall, and when I asked to make an appt to speak with him when he returns, i was informed they could not do it because they didnt know if he would even be taking appts - who is this guy, houdini? - or just another elitist democrat career politician who is afraid to meet with those he works for? - I for one have had it with him -= and all the career politicians = so, i am supporting the goooh plan - go to www.goooh.com to get more info on how to replace them all in next years elections - By the way, I will be there on the 22nd, and also I have already reserved my airplane seat and hotel to go to dc for the 9/12 march - go to resistnet.org or freedomworks.org to get more info - lets all show up there - whatever the sacrifice and show them, that WE THE PEOPLE - want our country back - GOD BLESS AMERICA and al my fellow patriots - WE HAVE TO DO THIS - FOR OURSELVES - But more importantly for our children and so on - they need to see we care - by seeing us stand up and stop this madness!!!

We will be there in full support on 8/22/09. We just booked our room at the Embassy Suites downtown to avoid parking hassles. I was listening to a caller on Rush Limbaugh today who attended the Town Hall Obama held this weekend in Montana. She said they did not have tickets, but many desenters of Healthcare Reform organized outside in a pre-determined place. She explained that ACORN infiltrated the area and verbally harrassed the protesters and made themselves very visible only when the media began to cover the event. The local media proclaimed that it was an even split (for and against), which was not the case according to the caller.

My question to all of us attending this Saturday is "How should we handle groups like ACORN and SEIU should they infiltrate the tea party?" They have the right to attend, however, I would not like to see any acts of aggression to these groups. It is my understanding that the members of these groups shout out chants and get right in the faces of protesters who just want to excercise their first ammendment right of free speech and assembly. This will be the first tea party/protest I have ever attended. Does anyone have any suggestions on a unified response to the infiltrators should a busload of them show up and try and overtake this event??

To Rosco, what in my post did you see as a threat? Was it the part where I said you should be held responsible for backing up your beliefs with verifiable facts? If you truly believe you are right, shouldn't you be able to prove that you are right?

As for enemies of this country, is not the crux of this rally pushing for sovereignty legislation; in essence, pushing for the ability to no longer be a part of this country. Would you not thus be considered an enemy of this country by threatening the union. You cannot invoke the name of America while pushing for a state amendment which would weaken the strength of the union. The Boston tea party was a response to hundreds of years of living under a monarch. Barack Obama has been in office for 7 months and he was freely elected by the majority of the population. If you believe in democracy, then you must accept that he is the people's choice.

I love this country because we can freely elect our leaders. President Obama was freely elected by the people, so were the members of congress and the senate. The majority of floridians voted for him, so you can't tell me that you are representing the will of the people.

This is simply a guest book in which to leave comments, not a forum for debate. We will not have name calling, animosity at our event. Captain America, we do welcome you to come, we will have a speaker on sovereignty and would love for you to hear about what it means to our state. I think you will find our attendees to be patriotic, peaceful Americans who care deeply for our county.

I look forward to attending my first tea party. Even though i'm an independant I saw right through Obama's promises. My dad once said you don't get nothing for free. Now with this BS of a health bill dragging our entire economy down, he is still trying to justify it. All of my family has worked had to retire with great medical benefits and he wants to take them away..He is nothing but a golden tounged liar. My family and I will be there!!

I support this president and I am not an entitlement-teet sucking leach. What I am is someone who believes in democracy. Someone who doesn't respond to threats or fear-mongering. Moreover, I'm someone who demands to know exactly what you would do if someone was "brave enough to get in your face"?

Cap'n "A" -
Haha....you're someone who "DEMANDS?" to know what I'd do? Typical liberal; demanding they have a RIGHT...for something when they don't. Well, like any TRUE American, I'd defend myself. Here, I'll explain....
If someone's "in your face," especially a stranger, they're posing an immediate threat to your person, and you do have a RIGHT to defend yourself to a point where the threat is no longer present.
This is my bread and butter; what I teach to others; hand-to-hand, and combatant engagement....I'm a very peaceful individual, but I teach people to finish conflicts they cannot escape from, and yes I'm talking about people who are getting assaulted defending themselves. But, as I mentioned in my earlier post, (that someone removed,) if someone's "in your face," that's a direct threat...if someone's having a discussion, that's a different story. Personal space, Cap'n....never invade it. I believe that's why Obama's so immensely unpopular. He strives to invade all American's personal space to see what he can rob and plunder to buy future votes with from the millions of undeserving. Most conservatives share this feeling of unwarranted intrusion into our lives, and now, many liberals are feeling the bite as well.
Believing in democracy and supporting Obama are conflicts of interest. I won't respond, as I'm not interested in a dialogue. Just wanted to answer your question. They gate keepers here said they don't want this to be a banter blog...so...gotta respect that.

One Voice. Listen to it on You Tube, Barry Manilow ( yeah he's sappy) but the song is our grassroots emblem. It takes just one voice to defeat the unconstitutional changes this administration is implementing (cap in trade, stimulus, card check, health care, cash for clunkers, omnibus budget). "It takes just one voice, singing in the darkness and everyone will sing". It is time to sing (and to shout)

The patriotism, the faith, the passion, the truth, the knowledge and the pure American life I saw and experienced this evening has encouraged and strengthened me to keep on going on - that yes we can take back our country - and make it, again, the country that God and the founders intended. Now it is on to Washington DC, September 12th, 2009 - lets take it to them - our determination that ENOUGH IS ENOUGH - We will not allow anymore of this nonsense. For more info on the Taxpayer march on washington september 12th - you can go to resistnet.org or freedomworks.org - both sponsors of the event - and also tea party patriots. I hope we who started in Orlando will also commit to taking it all the way to Washington DC.

It's clear that Obama is going down in a heap, but the HoundDog forsees problems: As his popularity plunges, Obama will increasingly behave like a wild animal, threatened and cornered. He will become a very dangerous man, and his lack of maturity will shine through.
Watch for it...and prepare yourselves.

Hello fellow patriots. I missed this weekend’s event. I was all set to attend but last minute family issues stopped me. I did attend the first Tea Party in march, and the 4th of July event, and right now am planning my trip to D.C. The local news (of coarse) did not show too much about Saturdays event, all I heard is that Hulk Hogan was there. (Was that a good thing, or a distraction?) Would anyone be willing to share some details about Saturdays event? Thanks.

I am here to share excitement about The First Daytona Bike Week Freedom Rally in 2010!
As you know the politicians are not and have not been paying attention to us for a very long time and we have not held them accountable for that either;Otherwise they ould not be enjoying a Retirement Package and benefits only available to the "Elite" in society! Ofcourse, they have demonstrated that they believe they atre elite , but we must give them a reality check! Their future prosperity will not be by the brow of the American worker based on illegitimate laws designed to rape "We the People". The Tax paying Majority will not be silent anymore- or ever again!
We all must come together to embrace what will go down as a crossroads in American History. Maybe the greatest of all if we fail. That is because if all Americans are not educated and brought to the forefront of this battle for our Freedom ,the powers that be- the Tyrranists and Usurpers will see that our Freedom is lost forever. If we do nothing we will have no recourse other than war and no one wants that in our country. We all must put aside our differences and stand on the common ground that we all hold dear as Patriotic Americans- Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. That is the preamble to the Declaration of Independence and that is the basis for our Constitutional Republic. Though the magnitude of this documents effect on the whole world is immeasurable it's simplicity is exemplary. The stark difference between the men of old who were here to serve and protect the rights of the common man and the snakes today who have perverted our system of government is like night and day- good and evil! The dam of corruption has breached the wall of protection-our Bill of Rights- that was intentionally and by perfect design established to prevent this atrocity being implemented against the people of the United States of America. We are not Communists or Socialists, nor do we need a King!
God forbade it long ago, and we must forbid it now! God's Providence was established long ago by the early settlers who came to America on the Mayflower and we must never forget our past and the reasons for our Nation's prosperity and success as a Free Rebublic. The Constitution is a document that requires a moral and religious people for it's principles to withstand the tests of time. It is now,at this junction,that we as Americans must make the journey back to our Founding Fathers dream and vision for America.
I want to roll up my sleeves and fight for this God inspired vision and I will need the support and help of all my like-minded citizens to accomplish this goal!

Please help me "Rally for America"!


On April 15th, 2009 1.2 million people in over 850 cities across the United States of American held “Tea Parties” to protest the bailouts and fiscal abuse perpetrated by the government. This was just the beginning of a larger movement aimed at restoring the basic free-market principles our country was built on and holding the government responsible for excessive spending. On September 12th,2009 over 1.5 million Americans went to Washington D.C. to express, collectively, our dissent. The Tea Party effort has promoted the concept of grass roots collaboration which we have embraced as a volunteer group of every day American citizens. We take pride in the fact that we are part of a 50 state network of leaders and activists using nothing more than the internet, telephones, a few websites and a burning desire to restore freedom. We are unifying and forming a human chain that will ever fight against the Tyranny of this current era, and this flame, reignited, will burn forever in the hearts and minds of true patriots to insure our enduring success. Live free or Die! So now you might ask, “What’s next?”

Our answer: “ this is only the beginning!” We are not going to stop until our message resonates all across this great land and restores our Constitution and our government becomes accountable to the people as our founders intended. We started on our Mission to get the message to our Government that we will not take it anymore. We are here to tell our Government that we will not allow them to take us down the destructive path they are on and we will demand that they will abide by the laws of the land, established in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. If they do not then they will be voted out of office and they will be replaced with officers that represent us, 'We the People’! We will concertedly work to clean up every area of our government including the Judiciary at the local level in our townships all the way up to the Supreme Court and finally the Office of the President! When this objective is achieved we will continue to promote Educational Seminars, Leadership Workshops,Theatrical Productions, Community Outreach Programs, establish scholarship and trust funds and determine to rema

How do we get Alan "The Ghoul" Grayson and Suzanne Kosmas out of office in November Elections. Already a "so-called" Republican, Peg Dunmire has announced she is running as a 3rd Party. She is the 1st and only one running under the "Tea Party -Party". I thought Tea Party Patriots are not supposed to run under the Tea Party name? This is disturbing. I am sure that you do not endorse her. Her website is:

There was talk that Grayson knew that there might be a 3rd party candidate that may help him. It is only an opinion, but I do have the opinion that Grayson is aware of her and is in some way having her get help so his competion is destroyed. Please let others know what she is doing and what the effect will have. It is the belief that the Republicans "Primeries" shoul dbe open and decided by the public and not a 3rd party.

Today, March 23, 2010, is a date which will live forever in history, as a stain on freedom. Today the President, Senate and the House of Representatives violated their oath to uphold The Constitution Of The United States Of America by knowingly and willingly passing a law which violates our Constitution, everything it stands for and everyone who has stood by it.
Today, if you stand by Boston Harbor, The Old North Church or Concord Bridge, ....you can feel them. If you look upon The Liberty Bell or stand in Independence Hall, ....you can feel them. If you are in Yorktown, Valley Forge or on the shores of the Delaware, .... you can feel them. If you visit Gettysburg or Andersonville, ....you can feel them. If you are in Bataan, Iwo Jima, Anzio or Normandy, ....you can feel them. Their presence is growing stronger. They are calling out to us.
They wear powdered wigs and three corner hats. They are clad in Blue and Grey. They wear Kaki, Olive Drab and Camouflage. They are all calling out. At first you can barely hear them, but they are calling. Their voices grow louder and louder becoming thunderous across the land. They are rising from their graves and calling to all Americans. Don’t let Freedom die! Don’t let freedom die! Those who gave their lives for this country are calling. Rise up, Rise up they say. Stand with us, Stand together, don’t let Freedom Die! We gave our lives for Freedom, Make sure we didn't die in vain, don't let freedom die!

Greetings Tea Party

WE WORK FOR YOU

The Officers that supervise, manage, and control the Inmates at the Orange County Jail are employees of the taxpayers. As taxpayers, you should have a voice in their treatment. Tuesday April 20th a public hearing before the Board of County Commissioners is scheduled and we are asking for your support. Negotiations with the county administration ended with the Officers accepting no pay raises. We acknowledge the state of the economy and its effect on everyone and we are no better than our neighbors, friends, families, and fellow citizens. As a community, we all share in these troubled times and ask that you join us in prayer.

We pray for the loving hands of Almighty God
to lift America from her strife. Amen

The issue still in dispute that will be determined by the Board of County Commissioners is one of equality. Where we are no better, we are no less. We are no less an employee of the county and no less a citizen. The Officers working in direct and constant contact with the incarcerated population are the employees at issue. When their schedule was converted from an eight hour to a twelve hour workday, their personal and term leave benefit was reduced by days. We are only asking for it to be restored back to that of the rest of the county employees. We are asking for your help. Please let your voice be heard. Please call or email.

Mayor Richard T Crotty (407) 836-7370 [email protected]
Commissioner S. Scott Boyd (407) 836-7350 [email protected]

It's been said "you can't fight city hall" and when it comes to fighting, Orange County Government is even bigger and more powerful.

I am a tea party participant who also supports Fl Hometown Democracy Amendment 4 because I believe citizens should have control over the government they pay for. Amendment 4 gives citizens a vote, or veto, on excessive land use changes to comprehensive plans.

Will Amendment 4 cost jobs? No. We will vote only on changes outside the comp plans, and, since there is plenty of growth already approved within comp plans, there will be plenty of growth and development of houses and businesses.

Will Amendment 4 threaten property rights? No. Amendment 4 understands that private property is the foundation of all American freedoms. Remember, Amendment 4 cannot take away property or property rights, even if the applicant is voted down. It does not initiate anything. It simply responds to requests for land use changes. Our property rights are already threatened, by government, through excessive codes, permits, regulations, taxes, and eminent domain.

Will Amendment 4 require too many votes on the ballot? No. We will vote only on land use changes, not technical or administrative changes. If there were really "hundreds" of votes on the ballot, that would be even more need for Amendment 4. How ironic that the very folks complaining about too many changes on the ballot are the ones requesting the changes.

Amendment 4 will give citizens control over local governments that are expanding in size, cost, and power. It will provide a check and balance for taxpayers against special interests. Vote Yes for Amendment 4.

To my fellow patriots, from Kuwait! Thanks for all the hard work this year and after today's election is over, lets REDOUBLE our efforts immediately and work towards 2012 !

When our brigade (53rd IBCT, Florida Army National Guard) returns in December, believe me there are many of us who are absolutely itching to get involved.

Happy Voting!

Adam Sudbury

What is happening with the Orlando Tea Party? Did we run out of steam? Perhaps it's time to take this outdated site down if there are no recent events or news. Otherwise, we look pathetic.

CJ Before you make any more negative remarks about this site or the people behind it I suggest you stop and realize just how much they have done to get the Tea Party off and running here in Florida. And if you feel pathetic I suggest that you aren't thinking very clearly. What these Patriots have done so far for the Tea Party movement has made me so very proud of them,even if they never do another blessed thing! The Tea Party is alive & kicking in Florida because of the efforts of these great Patriots. - JT

Our nation is at a crossroad. Most in government have been corrupted by the globalist elite and now know we are on to their game. They are circleing their wagons, attempting to impose their tryrrany before we can vote them out and fire those that don't hold elected office. This is America's last chance to regain the freedoms that millions have died for, most before we were born. We will be hated by the ignorant, despised by the by the powerful and depicted as dangerous by the elite owned media. They are hypocrites at best and criminals at worst and must be removed.

I am from united states of america, I want to testify of how i got cured of HIV, I got infected with HIV disease in 2010, visited several herbalists, spiritualists and pastors for cure but all to no avail, my world was gradually coming to an end until,i searched google and read about possible cures to get cured of hiv. i saw a post in a health forum about a herbal spell home,ACHIEVERS HERBAL TEMPLE,A temple that cures all kinds of deadly diseases including HIV AIDS, ALS, MND, Epilepsy, Leukemia, Asthma, Cancer, Ghonorhea etc, at first i got shocked,but when i read the temple's name again i thought of giving them a try because i so much believe in achieving what you desire. when i contacted this herbal spell home via email,he prepared a herbal spell portion and sent it to me via courier service, when i received this herbal spell portion, he gave me step by step instructions on how to apply them, when i applied it as instructed, i was cured of this deadly disease within 7days, I am now HIV Negative (-) all thanks to Achievers temple . Contact this great herbal spell home, Email: [email protected] or call 234 705 907 4351 Goodluck.

My name is Elizabeth Romero from UK. I am here to give testimony on how I got my husband back, my husband left me for no reason 6 Month. He moved in with another woman, I felt like killing myself, my life became very bitter and sorrowful. Then 1 day, a friend of mine told me about a great spell caster that is very good and she said that he told her all about her life history and the problem she is facing, i didn't believe it because I've worked with so many of them and it didn't work. She begged me further so I decided to try this great spell caster called Great Dr OCUSODO. I still didn't believe, but inside me i wanted to give a try and as God will have it, i used the spell solution he gave me and the next day I received a call from my darling husband Romero last month. He apologized and came back to me. I'm very happy now with my family it worked for me and i believe it will work for you too just give him a try and follow up this is a clear truth from a testifier. Thank you Dr ODUSODO once again, if you want to reach him via email: [email protected] or [email protected] contact number +2349067457724, WEXSITE https://drocusodospellcast.wixsite.com/dr-ocusodo

I love playing the Lottery and I buy tickets every 2 weeks after I get paid. I never wanted to get greedy but I did want enough to live more comfortably. Generally, my luck is pretty terrible. I took a chance when I found a website called [ amberlottotemple.com ] that offers spells to help people. It was the best £415 Pounds I have ever spent! I had to save up for a couple of weeks to be able to afford the spell. I had the spell targeted towards the National Lottery. I heed to DR Amber instructions to buy the ticket after 3days and have faith that I would be the winner. I kept my faith very strong just as DR Amber told me to do. The next morning I got up and saw an email from the National Lottery saying, "Good news, you've won a prize". Today my wife and I are proud winners of £184,262,899.10 Million Pounds. We are here to Appreciate the good deeds of DR Amber. You can reach out to him by email .…. [email protected]
