I think they were really hoping for a lot more people at this event, like about 10 or 20 thousand more, but when one takes into account these people who live there are loonafflicted enough to keep sending Harry Reid back to Washington, having a couple thousand with at least "some" sanity show up is probably more than they could ask for nor handle in that town, even for a couple hours (sorry for any conservatives trapped there, don't lose hope, we'll try to send someone in for you soon as we can)....
Tea Party protest goes to Reid's hometown in NevadaCNN.com: "Searchlight, Nevada (CNN) -- Sarah Palin on Saturday told Tea Party activists gathered that 'we're not going to sit down and shut up.'Palin, who derided big government spending and 'the Obama Pelosi Reid agenda' on Friday, headlined the event dubbed 'Showdown in Searchlight.'Caravans of Tea Party activists gathered in Sen. Harry Reid's hometown in rural Nevada to call for the defeat of the Senate majority leader and rally against big government and health care reform.Reid is credited with helping push through Congress the health care bill that President Obama signed Tuesday, as well as the 'fixes' measure that passed Thursday.By midmorning, more than 1,000 people had gathered at a plot of undeveloped land down a mile-long dirt road to take part in the latest cross-country protest. Activists hope the protest will carry a strong symbolic message.
This is the Tea Party people on an NBC report and they actually treat them like the patriots they are, I couldn't believe it. No "Tea Bagger" this "tea bagger" that and I was happy to see that. It reminded me of when Obama wasn't president or running for president when the MSM wasn't exactly right wing but exuded some semblance of truth, well maybe not truth, but not embroidered into Obama's boxer shorts even and Bashing Bush relentlessly from around 2003 and on.
We just have to hope and pray the conservatives aren't scared to admit their allegiance and just vote this guy out even for another democrat would be better than this man. Never until these dems did I really pay any attention to races outside of Illinois because you just hope the other states do their business. But you can see what happens when these people are left to their own devices so this time nobody can stay home.
Or kiss this place as we know it goodbye forever. Always remember what Ben Franklin Said......
“When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.” He was right.
I wish more people were there but then if I'm not there I can't complain about the crowd size. It's just that the promoters called it "woodstock for conservatives" they set the bar a little high for crwod size and liberals chew that stuff up for days ...
