After action report from the Greeley Tea Party.


TOPICS: Activism/Chapters; Free Republic; US: Colorado
KEYWORDS: colorado; greeley; teaparty
It was a cold day but we out stood the Al Gore weather. We had a small but good turn out due to only having two days to put this together. We had the tea party in front of our new congress woman Besty Markey's new office. She did come to open it today but was a little late. It was amusing to have the new congress womans office personal watch us set up and how they all were on their cell phones. It was not much later that our local police were there to watch over us and make sure we behaved. We had some of our state and local offcials come out to meet with us and join us in our outrage against the way we are being heard. The 4th district is not as liberial as it would like to be made out to be in the papers here.

Some of the people in the office, they were not happy to see us out in front.

It might have been some of our signs that did that.

This couple came from Colorado Springs to join us.

Rep. Markey does not look happy to see us.

We did make a point and it must have had a effect because a photographer was there taking pictures but asked to say who he was doing it for he would not say. We figure it must have been the new FEMA heads picking us out for the first FEMA camps.

Good Going. Save your signs. It’s going to be a long 2 years. Made the 1st tea party day & getting ready for the next. Love your global krapola signs. That’s on top of my list of policy change we can win.
CO2 GOOD
Cap & Trade BAD
DRILL NOW
!
Yours in Liberty

WAY TO GO GUYS!!!

Sorry I had a prior commitment and couldn't be there. So, there were about 20 of you, I hear?

And you say Bitsy did NOT come out to talk to you? Why, I am shocked, just shocked! She was supposed to be this all-inclusive, reaching-across-the-aisle, representing her ENTIRE district instead of just some of it, new breed of non-politician, etc etc etc.

Don't tell me all those campaign promises were just RHETORIC? I am shocked, just shocked!

Good job, BTTT, and quoting you:

‘We did make a point and it must have had a effect because a photographer was there taking pictures but asked to say who he was doing it for he would not say. We figure it must have been the new FEMA heads picking us out for the first FEMA camps.’

Scarily, that just might be true.

Thanks for your efforts.

Betsy did not want to have a conversation with me so I let ker know point blank what I wanted from her. I told her in no uncertain terms “You tell Obama we don’t want Cap N Trade” “You got that? No Cap N Trade”.

She was scared of me becuase of the tone of my voice and wouldn’t look me in the eyes. She mumbled something but I can tell she is not interested in what I had to say. As far as I can tell this was the first time she had ever been protested and was very intimidated. Fine by me.

Great job! "For the first time in my life, I'm proud to be an American"...I'll steal that quote for your FReep.

Makes me proud to be in the 4th...way to go, Renfroe and all!
