Subject: Tea Party in Madison

Wed. April 15 was Tea Party Day in Madison, Wi.
I, like thousands of others boarded a bus and rode to the State Capitol in support of a growing effort to get rid of high taxes and wasteful spending on unnecessary programs and projects, such as bridges to nowhere and choo choo trains that no one rides. It was a beautiful, 72 degree day and the crowd was excited, yet reserved and polite, and unlike the inauguration in Washington, the grounds were just as clean when we left as they were when we arrived. So, you see, there is change.

This From The Heritage Newsletter:

3,000 in Hartford, CT. 8,000 in Madison, WI. 2,000 in Jacksonville, FL. 2,500 in Boise, ID. 5,000 in Sacramento, CA. And many, many more. If turnout is your metric for success, then the nation wide Tea Party protests held yesterday were wildly successful. Establishment left organizations like the Center for American Progress and mainstream media CNN (like Susan Roesgen) tried their best to portray the protesting taxpayers as corporate shills, but a new Gallup poll released yesterday should give the left some pause before they start believing their own press releases.
