An aside:

cnn.com does not contain a single word of information about the tea parties at this time.

Amazing.

Chicago, Federal Plaza overflowing, cold and windy, probably 4,000-5,000. I have not seen any media "Reports" so I don't know how my guess jibes with them.

Hundreds of homemade signs, an anti war, anti military contingent was there, I don't think they stayed too long.

We have three network-affiliate television stations in our Coachella Valley, California area.....not ONE of them saw fit to dispatch a news crew to cover an event that drew a huge number.

Amarillo, Texas

300 to 400 at the courthouse at noon.

There’s another going on now at the main post office. I haven’t heard a count on that one yet.

Oh yeah? They’ve got a pretty disgusting column by Paul Begala:
http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/04/15/begala.taxes/index.html

# Story Highlights
# Paul Begala: April 15 is one day most Americans sacrifice for government
# Begala says paying taxes to support worthy government services is patriotic
# “Tea parties” are being pushed by GOP supporters who lost election, Begala says
# He says President Obama and Congress have cut taxes for most

Anchorage, AK being reported at 1200, so you can round that up.

I’m sure you are all over it already, but just in case, this is a good resource:
