Tax Day Tea Party Preview
ByBelow are links from around the web of articles relating to Tax Day Tea Parties being held today:
Washington Independent: Tea Party Activists: Tax Day Events Will Attract ‘Silent Majority’
- Good article explaining the tension among conservatives, libertarians, and mainstream Republicans heading into today’s tea parties. Many of those who began the tea party movement are afraid their message is being jeopardized by mainstream Republicans who supported the huge spending of former President George W. Bush.
Fox News: Tea Party Protesters Gird For Possible Liberal Backlash
- Article addresses the fear of Acorn and other liberal groups coming to tea parties looking to make trouble with the protesters.
Wall Street Journal: Tax Day Becomes Protest Day
- The opinion piece by Glenn Reynolds on Instapundit explains that the tea party movement could be a source of strength for the GOP in 2010 and 2012 as it is helping to revitalize the grassroots. He also makes the case that technology helped organize the movement through Facebook and other social media with no assistance from political parties or traditional political organizers.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution: Two Differing Views on the Tea Parties
- Are the tea parties showing a revival of the conservative grassroots and their new found use of social media, or just an event that has grown from the promotion it has been given by Fox News?

It’s not out-of-the-question that the 2009 Tea Party participants could someday be regarded by history as patriots who made a difference- same as 1773. This sort of public outrage might be just what’s needed to break through the media’s manufactured reality.
And you can believe that Obama and the left are plenty scared of the TEA party movement- how else to explain the dubious timing of the DHS report warning of “right-wing” radicals and their propensity to violence?
Barack Obama is rapidly liquidating everything that made this country great… and needs to be put back-on-his-heels with a major embarrassment that puts an end to the myth that everybody just loves Barack and his wacked-out agenda… because millions of us DON’T.
