Just adding the video clip from Rick Sentelli after the White House shot him down yesterday...

He's on a roll! And the media is finally starting to wake up!

Like they say in the Mickey D's commercial, "I'm loving it".

Great post, Lori.

I think I read on one of the affiliate sites that they're planning on Los Angeles and San Francisco too. That'll be interesting.

I actually read somewhere that they'll be scheduling tea parties around the nation for the next 6 months....from next week thru september....

maybe we should all invest in tea bags! looks like they'll be selling alot of tea for the next 6 months!

Sarge, they might accidentally pass out another ground up leaf in SF... Everyone would be high in 30 minutes and then they'd hit the coffee shops for tofu and sushi.

Man, I would go to one if local but I doubt Greenville, SC will hold one....

Thanks Lori but I'm pretty busy for a vacation right now. The best I can hope for is one in Atlanta I suppose. If you go, you have to tell us how it works out!

Sushi!?? Where I'm at in CA, we still refer to it as "bait."

I do have a new found love for tea though (the real kind).

Hey Tranter, looks like those people back in the colonies are getting civilized !
Next step is to get them to drive on the correct side of the road, instead of the "French way"

I'll take lots of pics! I can't go to the one next week in chicago because I'm in the middle of tax season. But I'll be at the one in NY on July 4th!

They're trying to organize events all over the nation so I'm sure they'll have one in Atlanta too!

I think Sentelli should expand the thought and we should tea bags to all of our elected officials. If they're on our side our not, they need to know the deepening feelings we hold of our elected officials. They all need to be put on notice, so I'm going to LOVE sending my tea bags additionally to Boxer and Feinstein!

There's some sort of thing going on where they want us to send tea bags on April 1st....

I just don't think it's gonna fly because any kind of letter sent goes thru alot of stuff because of the anthrax threats....

but here's the info anyway... http://www.reteaparty.com/contact/

...'touche'! (Oh wait, thats French!!!)
Later American auto designers quickly realized the error of their ways and made the appropriate changes!
Love you back! You rock!!

I'm going to send one regardless, to all of my reps.... county sups included. I'm going to put "tea bag" on the envelope with my clear and complete return address on it since I've nothing to hide. I hope they all get the message that my family (and I) aren't happy with any of their actions in the totality of events.

Perhaps we should just send them an unopened box of teabags directly. Just buy the box and tape a slip of paper with the address. Maybe a note requesting they distribute the contents of your own little stimulus package?

Great idea and I'll mail some "tea bags" too...think decals or sticky labels containing sentiment will work....

dont forget you can get some avery adhesive labels cheap and just print them all at once on the page if your little printer savy.....
