(Pesky Truth) and I had the privilege and pleasure to drive downtown
together to the Dallas Tea Party. Mark Davis, talk show host from WBAP
820 emceed the event, keeping the crowd of several thousand entertained
with his personable style and introducing the speakers, none of whom
were politicians. Here is the link to the Dallas Morning News story.
Thousands show up for Dallas 'tea party'
Of course, most people had homemade protest signs, with clever criticisms of our over-bloated government.
One of the founders showed up, as well. I'm not sure if this is Ben, George, or Thomas.
Bob's my uncle drew a lot of attention with his sign, a 3 ft. x 3 ft.
print of the 1934 cartoon. Here are two Right Wing Extremists admiring
one another's protest signs. Garnet92 managed to elude the lens of my
camera.
These two gentlemen liked the Carey Orr cartoon, so they volunteered to hold it up for me so everyone could see it.
