I didn't see a whole lot of Black people

Of course you didn't. This complaint about the Tea Party really frosts me. 97% of the Blacks voted for Obama.

Just got back from the DC party, breitbart spoke, that blond from SNL sang her song,Dick Armey was there, Lord Monkton (sp) was there got the crowd to yell Global warming is what...BULLSHIT, Michele Bachmann and a many others, Ron Paul was on the list but didn't hear him, we left with about 15 minutes left. A couple of 20 year old kids were going around saying 'so you all hate America' we told them some day you will learn and your generation is gonna have to pay the bill.

Great commentary and super pictures....Yes, those folks of Spokane certainly do look like radicals, don't they??? <another heh!!!>

This made me really LOL! Dogs are such fun, and always (well, nearly always, do the right thing....)

... my very intelligent Obama-hating dog chose to take a dump about a hundred feet before we got to it...

NOT ONE SINGLE PIECE OF TRASH on the ground. Fortunately, the city forgot one trash can on the trail leading to the Tea Party site, and my very intelligent Obama-hating dog chose to take a dump about a hundred feet before we got to it. My very intelligent and lovely wife had plastic sacks, which I used to pick up the poo and put in the trash can.

Wow. Leaving NO trash and even picking up the dog poo.

And these are the people liberals attack as hateful, violent, dangerous monsters. Just because they go out and say they're:

T(axed) E(nough) A(lready).

There were about 1000 at ours. 70 degrees and sunny (rare in June even) but windy as all get out.

The said they invited about 500 local politicians to attend (but not speak) About 5 showed up.

Including Chip Cravaak who is running for Oberstar's seat.
Very impressive guy. He is working his tail off showing up everywhere in the district. I think Oberstar for the first time in his 40 year rein has a fight on his hands.

If he could pull this off it would be more significant than Scott Brown's election.

Many Moose

Some areas of the nation do not have even a few black Americans.

Suggest you do a little research on percentages of population for the various ethnic groups in Spolkane, Wash.

You may find that percentages of black people in Spokane is very small----------I do not know.

If so, then it is fair to say that the Spokane Tea Party was representative of Spokane and the environs.

If the same demonstration is in Washington, D.C. there will always be a mix of people per race or national background------Korean, Chinese, White Europeans-Caucassian, Africans, Russian, Polish, European, Hispanic, Japanese etc.

What I find interesting in the D.C. are, which encompasses D.C. Maryland and Virginia, are the number of legal immigrants who have come here in the last 20 years or so who are participating in the tea party movement.

They came here to escape the tyranny of their governments and to live the American dream of freedom and now find an oppressive group in control of the USA.
