Going to a Tea Party

And I don't even drink tea. Ok, it's not one of those kinds of tea parties. This is one patterned after our early patriots, Massachusetts colonists, who dumped tea into Boston Harbor to let King George III know what they thought of his taxing them without representation in Parliament. And also following the example of other cities all over the country who have already held their Tea Parties in recent days, and more cities who will hold still more on April 15. I'm joining other like-minded folks who are going to our Capitol building in Salt Lake City tomorrow at noon to let our legislators and the public know that we're deeply concerned about the irresponsible way our government is attempting to solve our very serious economic problems.



I've never participated in this kind of political activity. But these are unusual times.

Oh, so this is a Tea Party. I thought you were asking people to tea to talk about our country's "leadership." Silly me. The tea party your going to will be even better. Hold that sign high, Pam!
