8 more Tea Parties coming to Waco.

WACO - TEA Party planner Toby Walker said Wednesday eight more tea parties will take place in Waco before the next presidential election after hundreds showed up to protest government spending Wednesday.

"This is shocking to us because we did not expect this many people," said Walker. Thousands of protesters showed up at rallies across Texas including in Waco and in Belton. Some protesters were heard chanting "secede," at a TEA party in Austin. Protesters in Waco said the next step is getting voters out for the May election. "When you start bringing to the for front that you can actually become empowered by voting, what's going to happen is there's going to be a lot of people who never had interest (in politics) are going to start voting, and they're going to start waking up," said Joe Cline, a protester at a Waco TEA Party.

Walker said TEA Party coordinators across the county are forming a coalition to share resources. If politicians don't shape up, Walker is working to help new candidates replace them. "We're going to help people learn how to run for congress or local office," said Walker. Help them in that process whether they're republican or democrat and then we're going to be the watch dog say this is what they're spending your money on.

Are you fed up with a Congress and a president who:
vote for a $500 billion tax bill without even reading it? are spending trillions of borrowed dollars, leaving a debt our great-grandchildren will be paying? consistently give special interest groups billions of dollars in earmarks to help get themselves re-elected?

want to take your wealth and redistribute it to others? punish those who practice responsible financial behavior and reward those who do not? admit to using the financial hurt of millions as an opportunity to push their political agenda? run up trillions of dollars of debt and then sell that debt to countries such as China? want government controlled health care?

want to take away the right to vote with a secret ballot in union elections? refuse to stop the flow of millions of illegal immigrants into our country? appoint a defender of child pornography to the Number 2 position in the Justice Department? want to force doctors and other medical workers to perform abortions against their will? want to impose a carbon tax on your electricity, gas and home heating fuels? want to reduce your tax deductibility for charitable gifts? take money from your family budget to pay for their federal budget?

REVOLUTIONARY IDEA

REVOLUTIONARY IDEA Fed-up Americans mobilize: More than 170 tea parties Patriots put blazing heat on Washington, rebuke reckless spending

A revolution is brewing as American patriots and free-market advocates unite in protest against out-of-control government spending – with a wildfire movement of more than 170 nationwide tea parties.

John M. O'Hara of The Heartland Institute is a member of New American Tea Party, a coalition of citizens and organizations concerned about reckless government spending, is helping coordinate a number of national tea party events.
"Our message is simple: 'Bailing out' reckless businesses and individuals is neither the burden of responsible, hard-working American taxpayers nor the role of government," he told WND.
Here's a tea party everyone can join! Sign the petition calling for the Constitution and common sense to prevail when it comes to spending...
O'Hara said there is no question the United States is facing tough economic times, but he believes many politicians are not proposing serious solutions.
"The Congressional Budget Office and countless economists say that the recent 'stimulus' packages will likely hinder, not help, our economy," he said. "Tax cuts, not tax hikes and handouts, are the quickest, most efficient means of getting our economy back on track."O'Hara said legislators must listen to citizens who are tired of irresponsible policies so the nation can recover.

"It is time politicians heed the will of the American people and the clear signals coming from the financial sector: stop the excessive spending, cut taxes, and get out of the way. Only then will we unleash the resilient, entrepreneurial spirit of Americans that has made our nation great and which will propel us through this rough patch to more prosperous times ahead.

The New American Tea Party website states, "This isn't a conservative or liberal thing. This is about government forking over billions of dollars, our money, to businesses that should have failed. This is about taking money from responsible people and handing it over to CEOs who squandered their own."

Another organization, the Political Exploration and Awareness Committee, or PEACPAC, formed a website known as ReTeaParty and accepts tea party registrations from across the nation. It also provides detailed information on how to organize tea parties and posts photos of the events.

Tax Day Tea Party, a national collaborative grassroots effort organized by Smart Girl Politics, Top Conservatives on Twitter, the DontGo Movement and many other online groups, is also promoting the events.

WND has also launched its own tea party forum so citizens may exchange ideas, information and announcements about the "revolution."
