I read a piece by Michelle Malkin the other day and she was talking about a grass roots conservative movement of people to protest on tax day...it is called taxdayteaparty.com. Where they are trying to get people out to protest President Obama's agenda towards socialism.

It is suppose to be a protest on April 15th where they are trying to get people from all over the country to go out and protest...just wondering if anyone heard of this?

We held one across the river in Portland, Oregon, Theresa. My wife and I went and had a good time. Over 100 people showed up and we made our point.

It really surprised some who seemed ready to join in, until the realized we were conservatives, not the usual liberal whiners so prevelant in Portland.

April 18 we have another planned for my community in Washington State on the County Courthouse lawn. This one is called a "Pork" protest and with as much advance notice, we hope it will be attended by even more people.

This YouTube page has several videos of various protests held across the country on February 27.

Keep watch as I'm sure there are several more planned in various cities, or organize one of your own.

Just like the Swifties did, we need to raise our voices and refuse to be ignored or silenced.
