Current TEApeat: Taxpayer March on DC, via the Tea Party Bus (Tea Party Express), tour heads toward DC for the 9/12 event. While we touched on this in several TEApeat related Diaries when the Tea Parties were first revving up I wanted to revisit and help us all to get caught up on the latest clever posters in the Slogan War and/or to share other aspects of a stop in your area.
*Here’s Your Sign – came from The Blue Comedy Tour (used here with admiration and respect for their creation).

I’m hoping/planning to catch up with the Tea Party Express when it reaches Brighton Michigan on Day 12 and that you’ll be able to catch the Express [update: Looking to join up with the Express and travel onto DC? info via comment-312 in this Diary (or direct: here).] as it works its way across America:

for more details about each stop visit: Tea Party Express Tour dates/times as well as for route details if you want to see if you can even meet up with the Bus and join the procession from one stop to the next or in mid-route. Parade anyone?

I look forward to seeing some Diaries from folks as the tour progresses along the way or feel free to stop back by this diary to share any of your favorite Pictures, Sights, Sounds, Video, etc, in relation to the events. Some of the Signs thus far…

My fave: “Size Matters – Reduce Govt.”
“You can’t fix STUPID” which also came from Ron White and the Blue Comedy Tour.
TEA is Taxed Enough Already, and we ain’t talking about the drink
We The People – Listen To Us
Give Me Liberty, Not Debt
Go Green -> Recycle Congress

Memphis will have a Tailgating party before The TEA Party Express gets there.

Jim Tomasik (Diary) Tuesday, September 1st at 9:31AM EST (link)

The Mid South Tea Party group is hosting and we will begin tailgating starting at about 7 for those interested.

All patriots are welcome.

It is a Friday so we can raise hell all night long.

building an ever increasing presence across the US.

I wish the monies existed in all the communities (or could have been done by State sub-chapters if time, energy, monies, could have been garnered) that the Express could build a bigger and bigger (Parade feel) in status by adding an additional Bus (or more) for folks with the time, energy, money, to be able to purchase tickets to join the Trip from their local Stop and then on to DC with the group to become part of the Taxpayers March On DC. Maybe next year!!!

Looking to join the TeaPartyExpress Parade? or just help getting to the 912 DC event?

There are groups forming….

Are you a member of the Official 9/12 Social Network?
Posted by Thomas J. Keeley (here)
Do you have questions about the 9/12 March on DC? Are you looking to catch a ride with someone in your area? Are you simply curious to connect with other patriots who are making their way to Washington for this historic event?

If you have answered “yes” to any of these questions, then you should become a member of the official 9/12 social network here

… join some of the folks or volunteer to start a driving pool from your area

Congress' sign: KISS - Kill Insane Spending Stupid.

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Saturday, July 16th at 12:35AM EST (link)

I only wish I had a current Tea Party Express tour to meet up with in DC to have my double sided sign:

Keep
It
Simple
Stupid

on one side, and the other:

Kill
Insane
Spending,
Stupids

Rattle With Us Tea Party. We need another major march on DC, to stop their wavering. The Left expected the TEApeaters (us) (Doc’s comment about focusing on the protest and NOT the “Party”) to die off and go away – I fear many have gone back to their couches and/or just don’t believe (because this isn’t an election year and as if [despite (R) 2010 gains] Exporting/Expanding BLUEism isn’t still occurring) that they aren’t needed right now. Their voices, of course, are still important right now and our voices reminding them of the bold contrast between the GOP: the Party of kNOw and Demoncrats to those that might have open ears right now.
