Tea Parties Aren't Just For Little Girls

Today we went to a T.E.A. (taxed enough already) party. A lot of people haven't heard about tea parties going on around the country. It's a way to stand up and tell the government that we have had enough of the government growth and spending. There were over a thousand protest across the country today so look online and watch the news tomorrow to check it out.

Here Sean, Andrea, and Aaron all ready to go to the protest.

We were outside the main Post Office in Salt Lake.

There were so many clever signs. Here are just a few.


I'm trying to think of some of what some of the signs said. One said "Honk if I'm paying your mortage" and the other side said, "Honk if you're paying your mortage." A little boy had a sign that said, "My parents run on a budget, why can't the government." And the other side said, "Stop spending money I haven't earned yet." Another said, "Downside DC." "Tea bag Washington before they tea bag you." "Obama we're out of money." Another guy walked around asking if we were feeling stimulated yet. A lady standing next to me said that when her kids miss use their allowance she doesn't give them more so why does the government give money to companies who are miss using their money already.
