Went to a Tea Party today, Had a Mahvelous time!

Well here we are working for change, here are scenes from the Tea Party we had in Boise. As you will observe, its not just not just a bunch of uptight white rednecks, the really revealing point is the truly bipartisan nature of today's event, There were Republicans, Democrats & Libertarians there, I saw a good 1/2 dozen posters asking where or who is john Gault. That in & of itself was a priceless sight for me. Without further ado here's the pictures;

If you'd like to hear my favorite part of the rally, it was the speakers who took the time to educate the protesters on important facets of our government. One used his time to teach the crowd the differences between a democracy and a republic. One gave an informative speech about the moral reasons for individual freedom and capitalism, citing Ayn Rand in the process, and another spent time speaking about the 10th amendment. Also, the overall message sent was that this was only the first step, and that deliberate action must be taken to revert the federal government back to its original mandate. You know, being bound to the damn Constitution and all that.

What a rewarding experience! I never thought in 1,000,000 years I would have to attend a protest in support of liberty in the USA, but I was glad that I had the chance to do it. As Lonnie alluded to, the event was (for the most part) a non-partisan event. I was a little disappointed in the last few speakers at the capital, however. They sincerely went off-topic. One used his time with the mic to announce his candidacy for congress, the other managed to squeeze in opinions on "family values", and the last used his time to lead us all on a religious journey complete with a protest-ending prayer. Next time, I hope the event organizers will encourage the speakers to exclusively speak about government spending, states' rights, and taxes.
