Tea Parties are beginning to take shape for the 4th. Anyone that can make themselves available to speak, please be thinking about it now. Speech writers, you could be thinking about 5 to 15 minute speeches.
Everyone, please try to keep that date open for you to attend the party nearest you. They're usually anywhere from an hour to four hours long, depending on the location. Wear your FairTax apparel, carry your signs, have your literature in hand. Get your friends, your families, etc. to come with you. Make it a fun family day doing something awesome for your country!
I urge you all to visit this site,
http://www.teapartyday.com/Locations.aspx, to contact local organizers. In the Col., OH area, visit
http://shotsonthehouse.com/?page_id=1334. Request to provide a speaker or become a volunteer. Ask if you can set up a FairTax table.
If you find out about a party in your area, please post here and in the events section.
Remember, even if you're the only FairTaxer at your party, you've brought FairTax one step closer.
Don't engage in partisan politics; let the politicians and the media do that since they so enjoy dividing us. Always inform folks that this is a non paritsan issue and we can let those idiots in the Beltway try to divide us. They won't succeed. We're on common ground. Stay focused and try to keep your personal opinions to yourself. (Trust me, I've got my opinions and my family has to suffer them!) Give yourself credit, you're smarter than they, the media and the Beltway, think you are.
