It's time to take our country back! Join our efforts to bring REAL CHANGE to our government! Join the Hartford Tea Party Patriots in welcoming the Tea Party Express national bus tour when it arrives in Connecticut to rally Americans to oppose the out-of-control spending, higher taxes, bailouts and growth in the size and power of the government. The Hartford rally is part of a series of tea party rallies being held across the nation from August 28th to September 12th 2009, beginning in California and traveling eastward, and reaching its final destination: the big 09.12.09 Taxpayer March on Washington, DC

THE 09.12.09 MARCH ON WASHINGTON April 15th 2009 was an historic day for those who love freedom. Hundreds of thousands of Americans came out to protest the massive government spending that is burdening our country with huge debt and future tax increases. People came out of their homes and into the streets to stand together and say “Enough!” But the media would have you believe that only a few people showed up, and that those who did were not representative of the American people. Of course we know the truth, and we know that April 15th 2009 was just the beginning of something BIG!
The champions of big government are now working to pass a new national energy tax, government-run health care, and other policies & programs that will cripple our lives and our livelihoods even further. We must keep the pressure on our elected officials as they vote on how much more of our money they will spend, and how much more of our money they will confiscate. Many of you have been wondering "what's next?" for the tea party movement... well, THIS IS IT!
It's time to take the tea party movement directly to Washington, DC. Please join thousands of Americans from across the country on September 12th to deliver a message to our elected officials: "WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH!" We have had enough of the out-of-control spending, the bailouts, the growth of big government, and the soaring deficits. And we reject the future tax increases that will be imposed on us and our children to pay for all of this. For more information, please go to:

Come One, Come All!!
Come One, Come All!!
Come One, Come All!!
Be sure to exercise your second amendment rights while at the tea party.
Please check out what I hope will become the rallying cry for the Tea Party Movement.It’s a song I wrote for our local Tax Day Tea Party here in SW Florida called “We The People” You can hear it at “goodguysusa.com” I’d love to see the express use it as a theme song. You’re welcome to use it in Hartford as well. I’d be happy to send you a mp3. I’m an out of work,outof money painting contractor who would love to be able to make a living writing more conservatively themed songs. I have no backing, management or industry contacts. I’m totally dependant upon like-minded people to help spread the word. Any help you could offer would be appreciated more than you’ll ever know. Thanks
