Tax Day Tea Parties 2010
In the months leading up to Tax Day 2009 we saw the birth of a new truly grassroots movement and the awaking of thousands of the most unlikely patriots to join this cause. This was born out of the frustration of the ballooning deficit, rapidly expanding Federal Government, and We The People feeling they were being sold out by the very ones they elected to represent them. It is safe to say that this fire was lit years ago and was finally flamed and accelerated this past year by the government that culminated in a protest on April 15th in size and scope this country has not seen since its founding.
Since that day the tea party movement has only grown in number and stayed steadfast in their resolve to take back this country. What was hundreds has grown now to thousands of stay at home moms, soccer and little league coaches, dads, and everyday Joes. What first was a series of protest last Tax Day will continue on and bring these fired up patriots together once again. To show we will not back down, to show we will not go away, to show and say with one voice “Enough!”
Please consider joining us and everyone else at a Tax Day Tea Party this April near you. Now more than any other time in history we need you to step up and be part of the opposition. Wake up your neighbor and bring a friend. Let us support these people and help make this year’s Tea Parties a statement even Washington won’t be able to ignore.

Bowling Green sponsored by SOKY Tea Party Date & Time: April 15th, 5:00pm

Some patriots will be invited to share in addition to invited guest speakers. All candidates for office that we could reach have been invited to come and mingle but primarily to LISTEN. It appears that from Washington to Main St politicians are ignoring their constituency and this is one rally that will try and inform CANDIDATES & OFFICE HOLDERS what their constituents are thinking rather than vice versa.

It has been a year and we are even more fired up and ready to go than ever. If you thought the thousand that came out last year was impressive just wait till they all show up with a thousand of their friends and we flood downtown Lexington with patriots and Don’t Tread On Me flags. There will be great speakers, music, and like minded people who share the love of this country. Please plan to come out this “Tax Day” right after work to make another stand and have your voice heard in Central Kentucky.
Cincinnati sponsored The Cincinnati Tea Party, Cincinnati 9/12 Project, and Ohio Liberty CouncilSpecial guest Sean Hannity
Date & Time: April 15th, 5:30pm
Place: Fountain Square in downtown Cincinnati
When they gathered on Fountain Square in downtown Cincinnati last April 15th, they numbered 5000. And that was when they were still unknown. Now they represent a national movement whose voices are heard clear up on Capitol Hill by conservative officials. And at the rate they are going, they may soon be winning it over with some of their own (as well as several state and local spots) by the votes of America’s dissatisfied majority. Add in Nationally syndicated talk radio and Fox TV host Sean Hannity is making the rally in Cincinnati his final stop of his national book tour, Conservative Victory. This is sure to be one of the LARGEST tea parties in America that day at least in our area.
