Despite the predictions of the local media [what a sorry, uneducated, prejudiced lot], the Knoxville Tea Party was an overwhelming success.
Our event was held at the amphitheater on the World's Fair site. The amphitheater, with seating for 1,000, was filled well before the official start time of 3pm. The overflow crowd occupied all the areas adjacent and finally spilled over to the opposite bank of the waterway behind the amphitheater. Local media were present, especially those AM and FM stations devoted to talk radio, but the local TV stations showed up, too.
The youngest participant I saw was just a few months old but the sign on his stroller said:
'Don't mortgage my future!'
Check your local Tea Party gatherings to see how successful they were...and dedicate yourself to helping future events succeed.
It's clear that these Tax Day protests are only the beginning of a movement that will force the 'representatives' in The Swamp to reconsider their plans to bankrupt our country, the greatest the world has ever known.
