Is anyone going to go to Jim Matheson's office (D-Utah) on the 22nd? I'll be there! He may be a "blue dog", but I want to still make sure he knows where his constituents stand. So, if there are any Utah 9/12-ers going, let me know. Our tea party at the Federal Building was awesome on Tax Day - let's have an encore! (the good part is that it won't be snowing at this rally like it did in at our tea party in April!)
Maybe I should have put it as "home state"? That is what is on his birth certificate, right? ; )
Hooray for the private sector! Obama could learn a thing or two from his home state...
April 15, 12-3 pm, Federal Building, 125 South State in SLC
It's at the Federal Building in SLC - 125 S. State.
I'll be at the Salt Lake City Tea Party, 12-3. We're still trying to come up with some catchy signs (my brother jokingly suggested my husband carry one that says, "Unlike most protesters, I'm missing work to be here!") - any good ideas?? Anyway, my husband and I are so excited to go and I'm spreading the word! Let freedom ring!
I agree! Reminds me of a political cartoon I saw (I just looked it up) that said "France, Germany, Norway, Finland, Poland, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Algeria, Morocco, Romania, Kosovo, Panama, Serbia, Croatia, Bulgaria, Netherlands, Luxemborg, Czechoslovakia, Afghanistan, Denmark, Kuwait, Egypt, Montenegro, New Guinea, Indonesia, Thailand, Greece, Russia, Tunisia, Ukraine, Albania, Hungary, Belgium, Austria, Libya, South Korea, Japan, Italy, soon Iraq - Another country free, once again, courtesy of the United States of America."
Yeah, I think it's time the Europeans take the lead and let us take a break!
Wait...you're forgetting! Pres. Obama DID give the Queen an iPod... ; )
My brother worked in a supermarket and he said that a good many of the people turning the food stamps in could barely speak English. I may be jumping to conclusions, but I'm just saying...
I can attest to this, too! My father was in the military for a good part of my childhood and we made sacrifices - food stamps were never an option to them! My mom was just telling me how every year they qualified to get free school lunch for all of us kids (there were four of us), but they refused. We didn't resort to eating "other critters" : ) but we definitely went without. And, honestly, I think I'm better for it.
