Nationwide Chicago Tea Party ~ Atlanta Joins the Party!

ATLANTA TEA PARTY
Friday, February 27th
12:00 Noon EST
Location: Georgia State Capitol Building
Downtown Atanta

ATLANTA Tea Party FaceBook Event Info

As a result of Rick Santelli's rant on CNBC earlier this week, there is now a nationwide movement to hold tea parties at various locations throughout the US in order to protest the Obama Administration's economic policies and liberal spending bills! Conservatives, Liberals, and Independents are all involved in this effort! Talk about bipartisan support...this movement is full of bipartisan support! Perhaps the Adminstration and our no good, spend, spend, spend, and spend some more Congress could learn a thing or two from this effort! First, they are going to have to get their heads out of their a**es! Perhaps this movement will get their attention!

The bottom line is that we the people are fed up with the shenanigans of Washington! This movement is the beginning of having our voices heard and taking back our government that has been hijacked by a bunch of egotistical politicians that are out of touch with reality!

To move quickly with this effort, Top Conservatives on Twitter, Smart Girl Politics, the DontGo Movement, Americans for Tax Reform, the Heartland Institute, and American Spectator Magazine have joined forces to announce a “Nationwide Chicago Tea Party”, to be held on Friday, February 27 at noon EST. The tea party will be held simultaneously in Chicago, Washington DC, Atlanta, Orlando, and other locations around the US. This event will also be held on Twitter using the #teaparty hashtag.

If you are in Georgia and would like to participate or assist with this event, please contact me. We definitely want this event to be successful and the more people in attendance, the bigger statement we make and the more successful we will be in having our voices heard! We can do this people! Don't let any of these other cities put us to shame! Bring your best southern hospitality and let's have some fun while making a statement! We are working on local media being in attendance along with some state legislators. We are also hoping to get some publicity from local radio shows! As you know, the more people in attendance, the more publicity we will get! This event will be held Friday at 12 noon so what a great way to kick off your weekend. Happy hour will sure feel good on Friday! So what do you say...come join me for the party!

For more information, please refer to the FaceBook Event page and/or www.nationwidechicagoteaparty.com. You can also email atlantateaparty@gmail.com or email me directly at southernbelleblog@gmail.com.

If you have any contacts with state officials or local media, we sure can use your help in getting their attention! Even if you cannot attend, please consider helping in coordinating a successful event!

I hope you will join me! They more the merrier!

    SB -

    I'm planning to attend along with at least two others.

    It might be good to put the time / date / location in a more prominent place.

    See you there!

    "Thanks for your support and participation!"

    De nada, SB; I'm doing this out of vested self-interest as well as what I firmly believe to be in the nation's best interests. (That last meaning the vast majority of citizens, as I'm a fanatic about individual liberty for all.)

    This is the biggest theft of taxpayer funds in all of human history; not a very proud moment for us, of all countries. It's well past time to remind the 535 bums in Congress (along with their pals) who they actually work for.

    "“You can't use tact with a Congressman! A Congressman is a hog! You must take a stick and hit him on the snout!” - Henry Brooks Adams 1838-1918)

    Tactlessly yours,
    F. Arbuckle

  7. Hi, I am a political artist in Snellville. www.machinepolitick.com Art That Isn't Liberal. I am planning to attend the protest tomorrow. In fact, I will start making my sign when I finish e-mails. I was wondering if you still need help. I can get there as early as 10 - 10:30 after I take my son to school. Where is the best place to park, and meet up with everyone? I will need to leave a little early if it's crowded, so I can get back to pick up my son. If I can help prior to the event to make up for leaving early, I would be glad to do so. Please let me know.
    Thank you for putting this together, and I look forward to hearing from you.

  10. Southern Belle,
    Thanks for the website and all you have done to alert people. We went to the Tea Party today---all the rain and cold couldn't keep people away! It was wonderful to go and swell the crowd of like-minded, working, fed-up tax payers, tired of being fleeced!
    I hope that there are more "parties" to come, as I think we might be making the "representatives" a little nervous about their re-elections!!!!
    We need more exposure--I e-mailed WSBTV about it a couple of nights before, but saw no coverage of the event----guess it's STILL not time for the liberal media to criticize the leader....but.....it WILL come! We've got to keep protesting the loss of our rights and savings.
    Keep up the good work...keep people posted, and let's ALL do it again, REAL soon!!!!
