It was a beautiful day for a Rolling Tea Party.......

Today in St. Louis the organization MyConservativeGroup put on a Rolling Tea Party, driving a 50 mile loop through South and West St. Louis County. It was a beautiful day for a lovely drive. Over 30 cars showed up, decorated and ready to go:





There were messages protesting too much spending and the poor healthcare bill:









It took about 30 minutes for us to get assembled and ready to go. Brian Bollmann armed with a megaphone and a great attitude got the crowd fired up.

Dave McArthur even came by and said a few words of encouragement before we took off. I have video of both of them speaking. It will be up a little later.

We even had one lone protester.



He wanted to debate kool-aid facts with the people, so I obliged him. Here are the highlights:



The Rolling Tea Party made the trek from South St. Louis County, heading north on Lindbergh Blvd, then West down Olive, East on Manchester Rd. and finally coming full circle back to Lindbergh Blvd. Stopping in the Home Depot parking lot where we had started. Throughout the entire trip we had folks honking and waving, it was really great to see so many. They knew the message. They knew why we were there.

The Rolling Tea Party was a great success. It was the first major event put on by MyConservativeGroup and it was fantastic! Those taking part were approached by strangers in parking lots where we pulled over for breaks along the route and most-if not all-were in total support. The folks are really starting to get it. Through the efforts of groups like MyConservativeGroup, St. Louis Tea Party, I Heard the People Say and countless others-all with their scores of hard working grassroots activists, we are getting the message out. People are taking notice. We are making a difference.

Before you go, be SURE to check out SpikeSTL's video montage. The work is excellent and AC/DC is my all-time favorite band so that just adds to the awesomeness :)

Keep up the good work you guys! We are making a difference.

Al Gore speaking in Oregon-Come on out & give him a real GRASSROOTS welcome!

Al Gore will be traveling to Oregon next week, giving another long winded speech about his fake cause of global war.....I mean climate change. I wonder if he'll ignore questions from the audience again. Probably. Most of the time he doesn't even take questions.

Thank goodness we have common sense organizations like Americans for Prosperity and the tireless grassroots to combat lies and half truths being spread on this issue. If you live in Oregon, join your fellow patriots at the Americans for Prosperity’s Hot Air Tour, Wednesday, November 18 in Portland at Keller Fountain Park. There will be a rally outside of Keller Auditorium, where Al Gore will be pushing his job killing Cap and Trade Scheme. Show Mr. Gore you will no longer stand for his lies.

Conservatives are ineffective, but we can't stop talking about them

I was just sitting here thinking how annoyed I am that it looks like my real life is going to interfere with my ability to participate in the rallies against the Pelosi Healthcare Bill at a local Representatives office. (Or in D.C. of you can do it.) I had rearranged my day once to go, but alas, it looks as though my revenue stream has a stronger will than my activism stream today.

I started thinking about the importance and effectiveness of participation. We have all put a ton of time in. We are unbending in our belief. We are untiring in our participation. We are determined to see this thing through to the end. Every time the call goes out-we are there. Conservatives have taken the act of activism and protest to a whole new level.

Rock on my fellow mobsters!

But, what I thought was really funny is how the media and libs are portraying the effectiveness of all our efforts. The thing about it is, they paint it in anyway it suits their agenda-so the result is they end up talking out of both side of their mouth.

When a million people show up in D.C ,they say no one came and no one cares because we are just a bunch of crazy people.

When we rail against our own party for nominating a liberal to fill a Republican seat in New York and the true conservative loses, they say they won.

When we win in New Jersey and Virginia, they say those races are unimportant.

The thing is-if the results had been opposite-if they had won the New Jersey or Virginia or lost the New York seat, the reporting would have been just the opposite. They want to decry our effectiveness, but they have to change the story every time to make it right for them. If we win they call us ineffective, they didn't want to win that battle anyway. If we lose they call us ineffective, that's the battle they were really going after. Hmm, a phrase about having cake and eating it too comes to mind.

Keep fighting kids-you've got them on the run. No matter what happens, we must NEVER back down. We must NEVER give up. We will prevail in the end, because we are strong.

Yay! More Fun Announcements!

I am pleased to announce I will be attending the Defending the American Dream Summit in Washington D.C this Friday and Saturday as a blogger! It is an excellent opportunity and I am proud to have Americans for Prosperity as a sponsor. I know it will be informative and a great chance for me to score cool interviews for this blog and my new sweet spot as a co-host for the segment "Metal Babe and the Mohawk" on the totally awesome "The Snark Factor" (which I blogged about two days in a row, which is "da bomb" and funny and very smart-so why are you here reading this when you could be here listening!!!)
Keep your eyes peeled over the weekend-I have no doubt I will be doing some live blogging off and on and of course if I score something that CAN'T wait I will probably, put it up ASAP!
