Dear Readers: Thanks for all who participated in yesterday’s phenomenal event. It was a blast meeting many engaged an active citizens, and I was delighted to be able to share my experiences with Tea Party Italia with everyone.
Time doesn’t permit a full post today — I have some profit-making activities to attend to (as well as some Cub Scout stuff, as I am an Assistant Den Leader). So, I wanted to point everyone to posts from the SLOBs who came, as well as other exciting reports.
W.C. Varones has video of the many awesomely awesome speakers: http://www.youtube.com/user/WCVarones
The Liberator Today has a great summary report: Today’s Rally in Oceanside
Beers with Demo has a must-read piece, rich with his wry perspective, with fabulous pictures: 10/10/10 rally in Oceanside
Kimberly Dvorak: Tea party rallies to get out the vote
We are adding a new member to the SLOBS: Shane Atwell, who runs a superb blog under his name! It was a pleasure meeting him yesterday, and chatting about the Nov. 2nd election. Shane’s take on the event is here.
North County Times has an excellent article on the event (click HERE to read).
EXTRA TEA PARTY B0NUS: SoCal-TRC’s own Dawn Wildman and Sarah Bond were featured in Sunday’s San Diego Union Tribune report on Tea Party participants. I would like my cherished readers to go to the piece, and add some supportive comments to the dialog. Our opponents can’t seem to let any opportunity to insult fellow Americans go by, and some kind words would be appreciated: Who are San Diego’s Tea Party members?
Please check back, as I will have more updates as we gather additional reports. 🙂
It was great meeting you all. I wanted to post something on the event, but was so busy listening and talking with you guys I didn’t take any notes. I put the early turnout at around 400. Haven’t seen any pictures yet from then that show it accurately. After a couple hours the sun was clearly driving people away.
Thanks for the picture in this article, if only our lovely Media was in it!
Thanks for the link, Leslie. You did a great job! And hats off as well to Dawn and Sarah!
Leslie, you were wonderful as always!
I lost my USB for my camera and couldn’t do a report! I am so ticked because I have pics of me with Mason Weaver, etc. I should have them soon and will put them up on Facebook 😉
