I'd like to go, as I've never been to one and just see what it's like. We've talked about them before here. Will the event be posted, like the one at SouthFork for the 4th of July meet?

I'm not sure if it'll be posted or not. I've never been to one either and am seriously thinking about going to this one as I happen to be off work today. It'll be a long trek home if I do go and it's posted as I'll be taking the train. I hate driving downtown. LOL!

The Tea Party Patriots- Dallas web site says: Our goal is to help elect fiscally conservative leaders in the primaries and general elections.

I'd sure like to see that as much as the next guy!

I don't blame you! Downtown Dallas is fun if you're just driving around just to see the sights from the car. But getting out of the car and walking around is a whole different matter. I go there as seldom as posible. :mrgreen:

Well, if you do go I expect a full report on the festivities! :lol: :tiphat:

I recommend that anyone who can go to one should go to one .

You will leave with a renewed sense of patriotism that will be shared by hundreds , if not thousands of people .
At the very least you will realize that there are countless others who are worried about the direction
that this current administration is trying to take us.

Even in the sad state that our great country is in , I have been very proud to see so many Americans
standing up for the principles that made the United States the best country on earth.

We need to get back on the road to prosperity and get back our individual rights and freedoms before its to late .
God Bless America .

I think his actions make the answer to that obvious. And that's a huge NO!

Ok here are some pictures! Pretty good crowd for only having a few day's notice. And the speakers were excellent and the crowd energetic and everybody was very friendly. I saw no signs so assuming it was not posted. I carried as normal.

Couldn't quite get everybody in the picture even from across the street.

I took this one standing in the middle of the crowd.
