I for one am as confused with the infrastructure as the rest. I agree with those referring to the local leadership that got the tea parties organized in their communities as being the leaders or at least involved on a national level. The congressional district of patriots I belong to are scheduling a face to face meeting to brainstorm and discuss the next tea party or event in our district. Hopefully there will be several in attendance at that meeting. Our district membership consist of about 40% of the state membership. I am not sure why the membership is not growing faster but I am sure it is people thinking we are what the DHS suggested we were, radical extremist. I am beginning to like that title because it does have a nice ring to it. All I can say is I served my country in Vietnam and we lost it thanks to our congress. I commit to that not happening in this "CONFLICT". The national grand jury is our greatest 1st hope that needs to happen and happen quickly. I do think it would be great for some highly recognized figure like Tom Selleck for an example to head the "ONE" organization that feeds all the other groups. I may be dreaming but I feel it would be needed and constructive if it came into being. Remember, love your enemies but keep your guns oiled.
I read one post stating the assembly in D.C. should occur on July 6th since congress is out and the 4th falling on a Saturday. That sounds more practical to me because what's the sense in marching when the people that we want to send a message to would be home watching Fox news? Not that they would be spectators to begin with. I mean that we are only a radicalized right wing, anti-government, patriot, single issue, 2nd amendment American.
Help, help and more help. Who and where are the Constitutional and Bill of Rights watchdogs? Someone must have thrown them a bone and it is taking record time for them to devour it. We the people do not have allies that we can depend upon to look out for our best interest in Washington. Yes we have Representatives and Senators but for the last few years it has become apparent that we have not been elevated to the level equal to the lobbyist groups. We do not have the access to our "servants" that we deserve. E-mails, letters and phone calls go to the hired help and the elected official(s) probably do not even see them. Money does speak volumes apparently. It still amazes me how candidates will spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to get a job that doesn't pay anywhere close to those numbers and yet everyone of them become millionaires in a record short period of time. It ain't right, it just ain't right.
I was at a local festival today and purchased a tee shirt from a Native American Indian. the shirt simply states: SURE YOU CAN TRUST THE GOVERNMENT, ASK AN INDIAN. This shirt will be on my body at every Tea Party I attend. If everyone had only studied their history while in school then many more would understand the true meaning behind the saying. The shirt was a tribute to the American Indians and I will wear it proudly. God bless the American Indian and God bless America again.
ELLA10, YOU GOT IT GOING. I TOO AM UPSET ABOUT THE NEW TITLES WE GAINED RECENTLY FROM HOMELAND SECURITY. I GUESS I AM JUST A RADICALIZED RIGHT WIND EXTREMIST, SOUTHERN REDNECK, RETIRED, VETERAN PATRIOT. 'NUFF SAID. I DON'T CARE WHAT LABEL THEY PUT ON US I STILL KNOW WHO I AM AND WHO AND WHAT THEY ARE NOT. THEY ARE TRAITORS TO THE PEOPLE AND THE CONSTITUTION AND AS OLE G.W. SAID, IT WILL BE A LONG HARD FIGHT BUT WE WILL PREVAIL. YOU HANG IN THERE AND GET ALL THE KNOWLEDGE YOU CAN SO YOU CAN PICK UP WITH THE FIGHT FOR US OLD FOLKS.
IF YOU HAVE A COUPLE OF HOURS, GO TO THIS VIDEO AND SEE WHAT YOU THINK. IF YOU ARE RICH BY MY TERMS YOU ARE AN OK PERSON. THESE GILDERBERG FOLKS ARE FILTHY RICH AND WANT IT ALL. I MAY BE PUTTING MY CART BEFORE THE HORSE BECAUSE I HAVE ONLY VIEWED 30 MINUTES OF THE VIDEO BUT IT WAS ENOUGH TO SCARE THE HECK OUT OF ME. I HOPE THIS WILL SUFFICE FOR NOW. THANKS FOR YOUR RESPONSE. I HAVE BROAD SHOULDERS AND SOMETIMES PUT THINGS OUT THERE TO SEE WHAT COMES TO THE TOP. IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE VIEWING IT LET ME KNOW AND I CAN FORWARD AN EMAIL WITH THE LINK. HERE'S THE VIDEO:

Hello my fellow Americans. Right wingers, agitators, left wingers, liberals, trolls and any other known type on the site. It is good to see and know that we (the right wingers who are 99% of the time right) have touched a nerve and got the lefties and libs worried about our big parties tomorrow. They just couldn't help themselves and have proven that they just couldn't stand not knowing what we were up to. Almost as if they are mad because they didn't think of the ideas. But I want to tell everyone something. We are all Americans and regardless of your political viewpoint(s) if you don't revere and pledge allegiance to the Constitution of this great land then you too will suffer right along with the rest of us. This is mainly because all of the present conditions were planned ahead of time by the same folks that have been controlling everything for decades and that is the rich people who want to control the entire world and we (Americans and our freedoms) are standing in their way and we are so indulged in our own little worlds to realize it. If you open your eyes and look around you will plainly see that crime is not the reason they want to create more guns laws. They want to control US and they cannot do that as long as we have our freedoms and firearms. So forget about whose right or wrong, left or right or whatever and let's work together to keep America as the greatest nation on earth.
This cold be bad and maybe not. If the man in the white house now can stay there four years (God help us) and keeps up the pace we will have no problem having a republican elected to the white house and several in congress. The last time dem's messed up their Easter basket got repub's in the oval office and congress. It will happen again real soon and if they change the amendment it will be to the repub's benefit. I had rather keep it as it is and add another amendment to put term limits on congress and cabinet members.
I think we have too much to read on this site but it is interesting. To be effective in our efforts to stabilize the present administration and reinstate our Constitution, there needs to be better organization. I don't have the answers but I am sure the 9-12'ers could come up with some great ideas. We need a leader and officers along with all the other organizations such as The 2nd Amendment March, The Oath Keepers, The Patriotic Resistance, the NRA, Gun Owners of America and any other "Patriotic" organization that is willing to participate in this effort. These organizations could be formed into one with the leaders of the separate organizations serving as the board or officers. With the NRA alone, there would be 4 million plus members so am I thinking backwards here or forward? Bear in mind I am stirring the pot to see what might come to the top so keep it cool. Let's start thinking and posting ideas instead of bumping our heads in order to make this "last stand for freedom" our best shot. I ain't ready to give up and throw in the towel because I swore the oath as many of you did in my youth and I haven't forgotten that. I don't want it to end on my watch for my grandson's sake. If we look to God for divine intervention and guidance as well as keep focused on our objective then all will end just fine. I feel God doesn't want us to shut up and sit down. I think He wants us to take up the sword and preserve what he so gratefully gave this nation. You all have a wonderful weekend.
Great video and comments. Remember after 911 all patriots were flying their flags from their buildings, homes, fences and their automobiles? Remember how soon it all stopped? Let us be the ones to get it going again. Hoist your American flags again as a sign to all that we are going to take this country back to its roots--the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Let's reboot the hard drive so to speak. And this time, lets not forget so quickly what this nation is all about. We all are different and that is what makes this country as great as it is (or was). So let's get back to the Constitution and not let anyone mess it up this time around. Let's save it for future generations to enjoy.
