Freedom Works Tea Party

I went to the Jacksonville Florida Landing Tea Party, and thought you might like to hear from someone who was there.

It was bipartisan with Republicans Democrats and Independents. There were Obama Bashers and supporters...a large diverse group there. but everyone agreed that we needed to go by the laws of the Constitution, and change the Tax structure.

The Republican Caucus was there passing out fliers in the crowd, and trying to hook their wagon to the event by proclaiming that they have always been for these things...NOT.

Some of you know Dr. Jim Neilus. He is a Neuro surgeon here in Jacksonville, and spoke at the event. His topic was "Preserving the Constitution:" He quoted our Founding Fathers by saying "Taxation without representation is Tyranny". He asked "Do you feel represented?"

An amazing local 10 year old girl by the name of Rebecca sang " My Prayer for America." She was awesome!

The speakers let it be known there were lots of groups there passing out fliers, but only the ones at tables represented beliefs of the "Freedom Works."
One of the booths was for the following: http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/florida-sovereignty.html
Another booth was: www.fairtax.org
