So, how was your tea-party?

I put a message on the radio that if anyone was interested in holding a tea-party to call me. No one called, no one called, no one called. Finally I decided I would make up my own flier, copy them at the library and hand them out at the grocery store. But the store manager said that wasn't ok - but I could put the fliers on the cars. So that is what my plan was. I did get one call the night before and two calls while I was handing out the fliers. It was cold, freezing, blowing, snowing and very wet cold. I didn't want to put the fliers on the windshields cause of the snow so I folded them up and stuck them into the door handle or in the door. Calvin came and gave me some gloves cause mine had fallen into the slushy water and my hands were so cold. I handed out 100 fliers and then went home. I just wish I could have done more, but I couldn't just sit home and do nothing. I think this spending will cripple our country. You cannot spend yourself out of debt. You buckle your belt, including the Congress who got pay increases this year. You tell everyone else to buckle their belts. You don't borrow money from your enemies, and you find things to sell to other countries. (like oil?) It is simple economy. Make a penny spend two pennies and you will always be poor. Make a penny save half a penny, you will be rich.

April 15th Tea Party

When our founding fathers felt that King George had gone too far in taxing the people, they held a tea party and threw tea into the harbor. Today we are holding tea partys all over the country on April 15th. This is to show our unity and anger about the direction this country is taking. Our closest tea party is a 2 1/2 hour drive and I don't know if I can go. So I am encouraging everyone to find a tea party in their area and go. Stand up for our constitution, stand up for our righteous traditions. The hope is that if we do stand up for what is right, that our "leaders' will see that we are fed up and are ready to revolt against their unconstitutional actions. Please, spread the word, go to these meetings and stand up for truth and righteousness. If we don't, then we are part of the problem not part of the solution. Most of these are in the evening. If anyone hears of one in Logan, please let me know cause I really want to go.
