Hello Tea Party

The RockfordTeaParty has not disbanded despite the rumors that have
circulated by a group of breakaways who of their own volition decided
to break away from the Rockford Tea Party. This group has formed a new
group which the RockfordTeaParty completely endorses and supports. The
RockfordTeaParty is not competing with their group and will do
anything to ensure their success. They wanted a more moderate voice
that would better attract rank and file Democrats, but the
RockfordTeaParty cannot moderate the already simplified message to
make it more palatable for anyone.

The message is simple: small government, less taxes and fiscal
responsibility. That message is generally not a message that Democrats
traditionally will accept because those simple ideas slice
significantly into many of the socially leftist progressive ideas that
Democrats support such as taxpayer funded abortion, nationalized
healthcare, cap and trade, continued abuse of the welfare state,
uncontrolled borders, and a zillion free speech issues which would all
see resolution if we were to have a government that obeyed the
Constitutional precepts of less government, limited taxation and
fiscal responsibility. All of those issues attack and undermine the
very core message of the RockfordTeaParty which is a simple message
stated over and over. Limited Government, Limited Taxation and Fiscal
Responsibility.

The RockfordTeaPArty welcomes all groups to include Democrats,
Republicans, Libertarians, Constitutionalists, Continental Congress
Members, Oathkeepers and this breakaway group as long as they
understand that the RockfordTeaPArty cannot and will not moderate our
simple message.

Thank you for standing with the RockfordTeaPArty. Exciting times are
on the horizon. Tumultuous times will come and we must stand together
to weather those times and to advance our Nation and our America. Our
short term goal is a Revolution at the Polls in 2010 where we ignite
our community to get out and vote for the very best candidate on the
ballot. The candidate that believes in our simple message of limited
government, limited taxation and fiscal responsibility. We may even
need to be prepared to boot some state politicians out of office in
the primaries. Stay Tuned. We are now entering into the long haul
stage of this struggle.

Thanks

Title: Manzullo Town Hall
Location: 8500 E. State St., Rockford, IL 61108
Description: Hello Tea Party…Don Manzullo will hold a Town Hall Meeting please
see the details below. We should have a strong presence there to talk
to Congressman Manzullo about Health Care, and especially to talk to
him about not trying to cut a back room deal that is some sort of
compromise bill. Though the Congressman strongly supports the fiscally
responsible and low tax position we should still attend to voice our
support for fiscally responsible positions and get the real scoop on
what the health care bill is really all about. I will bring along a
number of the suggestions from Tea Partiers to my recent inquiry to
come up with creative ideas to fix our healthcare system. I will give
this list to the Congressman at the Town Hall Meeting.

Congressman Don Manzullo will hold a town hall meeting on August 19 at
7 p.m. at the NIU Center (across from Showplace 16 on East State St.)
to discuss “Obamacare”/ H.R. 3200. Calls should be made to U.S.
Senator Dick Durbin (202-224-2152) and U.S. Senator Roland Burris
(202-224-2854) to express your opposition to HR 3200. Remember to
thank Congressman Manzullo (815-394-1231) for opposing this bill. This
month we must all join together to educate people on this terrible
legislation and let our Senators know how strongly we oppose this
plan.

The Next Tea Party Meeting is still in the planning stages…We are
attempting to find a speaker who is willing to speak about the high
cost and financial burden placed on all Americans by the millions of
illegal immigrants now in country.

I know many of you want to help and participate in the tea party at
more involved levels. That will happen. If you are interested in
contributing your time, effort and/or money to the RockfordTeaParty,
please let me know. I already have some volunteers whom I will be
contacting this week.

David Hale is available for speaking engagements to your civic groups,
church groups, Sunday School Classes, and polictical groups. To
arrange a speaking engagement please call 779-348-5427.

Thanks
