Kansas Tea Party

Posted on 02/27/2009 11:46:13 AM PST by Kansas58

Good crowd at Wichita Kansas Tea Party


TOPICS: Activism/Chapters; Government; US: Kansas
KEYWORDS: aar; bho44; kansas; porkulus; teaparty
Congressman Todd Tiahrt and Senator Sam Brownback were thanked for voting NO against all the bailouts and for voting NO against the "Porkulus" Bill today. It was a nice crowd, on rather short notice. More than 100, maybe as many as 200, according to some in attendance. I confess that I did not count. I was too busy trying to get a couple of pictures. I will see if I can get them to post.

I just got back from the St. Louis tea party and they mentioned it was around 1000 people. Everyone was fired up. They had several speakers. It made me proud.

Well, we are blessed with the fact, here, that Congressman Tiahrt and Senator Brownback BOTH voted the right way.
So, it was a “Thank you” rally rather than a protest.

I hear the crowd in Overland Park (Kansas City) Kansas was quite a bit larger last week.

I was the guy with the cell phone camera, and the “Socialism Does Not Work” cardboard signs.

Not a bad pic for a cell phone camera, huh?

I wish I had a good one of the guy in the pig suit! That picture did not turn out very well.

Thanks for sharing. In Atlanta it was pouring down rain and attended by about 300 people by my estimation. Speakers included conservative state senators. There were several honks of support from passing cars. My favorite sign said “220 years to form a republic, 1 month to destroy it”.

Yep, but he did not trust me, at first, kept turning sideways, had to shoot 4 shots to get a good picture, but what I got is a nice one, huh?
Of course, I tried to dress up like a French Socialist, with the had, and scarf, and a homeless person, with my cardboard sign.
You probably have a very smart dog, lol.

The Dog should’ve used it (the paper it was on) for other things - that is what the TAXPAYERS got!!
