At the tax day tea party in Wichita, citizens showed their protest signs and talked about the message they want to send to Washington.

Excessive taxation by the Federal Government is bankrupting the country!

Hi, I think that the 1k is a fairly low estimation of the crowd. I didn’t show up until a little before 6 PM since I have an actual job and all. I met roughly 100 people who were leaving. Other People kept coming and going the whole time I was there (7:15). There were six of us from my aircraft company group.
Remember, conservatives can’t have a great grassroots program like the libs can. We have to provide income for both groups.

A quick report from Overland Park JOCO Community College….a really polite crowd of 3500 (many more came and went after 6pm to hear a Fair Tax presentation at Yardley hall) of all ages and political views. I was impressed by the number of women and everyone I talked to had never protested before. Most of us there normally are a bit laid back and don’t like to create a scene. But enough is enough. Stand up America…let your voices be heard…we surround them! This is not a racist event about a black President….it’s socialism vs. free market capitalism.
