God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the HOPE offered to us may be greatly encouraged. Heb 6:18
Walking up to the Tea Party Express II gathering I was approached by a Braindead Lib or as we call them locally, a Peoples Republic of Portlander who read my "Stop Mao Now" sign and said, What is M-A-O?
I answered Mao.
She axed, what is mao?
I said, Mao Tse Tung?
She axed, what is Mao Tse Tung?
I said, The dictator of China who murdered millions of people.
She looked at me blankly so I turned my sign around which said, "Hope or Chains".
She gave me a disgusted look and stormed off.
Another well informed obozo voter.
What a day w/the TPE II. You have to attend this if you have the chance. These people lift your spirits as they are a breath of fresh air as are the people who will surround you. Not only are they very talented singers and speakers, they love this Country as do all the patriots around you giving us a comradery that you find very few places anymore. We have to fight this fight to victory for a new dawn in America.
In a couple days I will have the vid that have some excellent shots for Youtube. We have to use everything we have to get our message out. This is our crossroads in histoir, we dont want to say we didnt do everything we could to fight this war. Youtube and facebook as well as Twitter are ways to fight and organize for next year. Everybody should try to have 1000 FB friends to help organize next years election.
So walking in as the busses arrived and they were getting group shots in front of the busses, which I wanted to film. I moved to the other side of the parking lot and begin filming and started the FREEDOM cheer. It got pretty loud after around 5 or 6 times, when I looked over and saw the news crews. I went over and filmed them giving interviews to catch their bias or at least keep them in line. Folks, a camera is better than a gun in this war. So I began interviewing the reporter, then he began interviewing me, it was amazing video and did get my shot on Ch 2, go Freepers!
Then went back to the crowd to film the event and another reporter came over and began interviewing the crowd which I filmed, then got interviewed by her but never went on TV. She did seem a bit taken back by having a camera in her face and her shades on a cloudy day seemed a bit Hollywood. She was beginning to interview an old Russian woman who was beginning to talk about her coming to America to escape communism, but got cut off by the beginning of the event. That would have been video gold and couldnt get it.
The event was like a big party and it is so much fun to stand up for our Country as she is being torn down. These are big shots of energy that we need to fight this fight. The only down side is that Jim wasnt there since he isnt doing this trip which is understandable. Missed you bud. Would have loved to get a pic w/him but maybe next time. Best line of the day, "the cash for clunkers wasnt a complete failure. It got 95% of the Obama bumper stickers off the road."
The most emotional moments were the tribute to our WWII vets and all our vets, sung by Patricia Heaton er Diana Negy as well as the handshakes by fellow Freeper Lloyd Marcus who is on a million handshake tour. In a time when the Maoists are trying to tear us apart, Lloyd is doing his small part to bring us together. That is some powerful video. Got to talk to him and gave him a FreeRepublic card and he said he posts here often. He asks, why something as small as skin pigment should make us hate each other. He knows it is a weapon to keep us apart that works. The more we are torn apart the easier it is to beat those parts. This tour brings us together, so make sure to unite together. That is our power and you'll have a Great time!

Thank you for your report. Sounds like you had a good turn-out.
We need to keep up the pressure on this administration.
When’s the next Tea Party and where?
Was she a black woman? Is that why you used the word “axed”?
No she was white and around 45 yrs old. I use ax as a wordism.
Pray for The TPE II
I answered Mao.
She axed, what is mao?
I said, Mao Tse Tung?
She axed, what is Mao Tse Tung?
I said, The dictator of China who murdered millions of people.
She looked at me blankly...
That speaks volumes, doesn't it?
Thanks for the great report.
That is why we need to educate in every way we can. These are the people ACRIME is targeting.
Pray for America’s Freedom
Another winner, bray!

Thanks for your report, FRiend!
I've had the privilege of meeting these people on previous bus tours...
"You Don't Speak For Me, Cindy"
and the
as well as the recent Party on 9/12 in DC
I encourage everyone to go if possible and bring family and friends with you. It is very uplifting and worth taking a day off from work or school!
Thanks again for the fantastic report, bray. I can't wait til they get to Denver this Tuesday!
Great job as usual. Looking forward to the You Tube ping!
I honestly don't recall being taught about Mao Tse Tung in school. I think we either have an interest in what is happening in our world, or we don't and obviously half the population doesn't strain their brain.
That's why we are ‘where we are’ now.
Thanks for the link.
Looking forward to this next round of Tea Parties.
Peoples Republic of Portlander:
We have a Peoples Republic of Portland on my side of the country as well.
Enjoyed the report.
“the cash for clunkers wasnt a complete failure. It got 95% of the Obama bumper stickers off the road.”
Love it!! Great report. Look foward to the video. Thanks for the ping Salvation.
