Taxpayer Tea Party

UPDATE 2: There is a group putting on a Taxpayer Tea Party in Boone on the 15th. We could combine that with the Slave Revolt idea to make them both even stronger. Here is the link to the facebook groups for both:

Boone Area/ASU Taxpayer Tea Party: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/group.php?gid=55274866106&ref=ts

UPDATE: We are go for the table. I think as many of us as possible should go down there. If anyone wants to do it again on the 15th in Asheville, I can't do it because of the SLAVE protest going on here, but work on it anyway.

Hey everybody. I got an email from an organization called Freedom Works. They are organizing rallies across the nation to protest the bailouts and government waste of the taxpayer dollars. One of the "parties" is in Asheville on April 15th. Another is in Charlotte on April 4th. I would personally prefer the 4th, since it's a Saturday. Anyway, I emailed the guy in charge of that one and asked if the Campaign for Liberty could set up a table or have a speaker there. I'm still waiting to hear back.

here's the website: http://www.freedomworks.org/petition/iamwithrick/index.html

here's the info I have:

We have a busy few weeks ahead of us here in North Carolina. The politicians are in for a rude awakening as we send them a message loud and clear that we are tired of the wasteful spending, the bailouts and the increase in taxes on the average working family. Enough is enough!

Please join us for the event that is closest to you. We will be holding taxpayer "tea parties" around the state in the next few weeks, and we need YOU to be there to make your voice heard!
