We Surrounded Them All Over The Country!

with 11 comments

UPDATE: Counter Protest on ObamaCare in Raleigh, NC at Sen Kay Hagen’s Office. Thank you RandyRepublican for the pictures!

UPDATE: Tupelo, Mississippi. Only Four Move On members show up.

UPDATE: Thank you, Michelle Malkin for supporting National Health Care Protesters: More Soros-bots outnumbered at NY health care counterprotest, and in Orlando.

WELCOME Michelle Malkin readers!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today was a nationally designated MoveOn.org aka ACORN’s day to lobby for socialized health care at Congress’s state offices. With the morning weather rainy and overcast, I knew it wasn’t going to be a big jubilee at Senator Bill Nelson’s and Senator Mel Martinez’s office. At 1pm, I found a parking spot close by and took my sign to the Sen. Nelson’s office complex. Fairtax.Org was represented as well as Smart Girl Politics, but no ACORN.

In total, despite the weather, there were sixteen Tea Party persons with great signs to rally passing cars. Four MoveOn white, middle-aged and elderly ladies dressed in blue teeshirts – looking like they were reliving the 60’s – were up in Nelson’s office meeting with Celeste Brown, Nelson’s Regional Director. When they came down, the Tea Party group took turns going up in smaller groups to sit with Brown and discuss our issues with the Obama’s health care agenda, leaving the rest to protest Obama’s socialist tactics. Brown, listened politely, asked clarification questions, but took no notes, inferred that despite the thousands of calls, emails, and visits protesting the Public Health Care bill, and only 13 calls for the bill, Nelson was going to do what he believed what was best. Vote for the bill. So Melanie of FairTax.org gave Celeste a “Pink Slip” for Sen. Nelson.

In Martinez’s offices, John Newstreet, Central Florida Regional Director, took the brunt of the heat from upset conservatives who were protesting RINO activity in the halls of Congress, compromising too much with Democrats. Newstreet acknowledged that he worked well with Nelson’s staff and that they were good people. Neither Nelson’s or Martinez’s office gets how upset voters are with their actions in Congress. They will in 2010.

There was no huge turnout of ACORN. Despite ACORN’s use of bullhorn, standing on a small dais, posters telling people to honk with support, and a total of twelve with one or two leaving when they saw how many Tea Party members came out, ACORN didn’t get much response from passing cars. They weren’t effective, they don’t have support from voters. We Surrounded Them!

The caps represent people against Obama’s health care plan that could not attend because they were working!

Last photograph is of ACORN dressed in blue. Even though it was supposed to be their day, ACORN’s piddly turn out FAILED!

Revolutionaries Invade Orlando City Hall Steps

with 2 comments

UPDATE: Why isn’t the Orlando Tea Party the lead story on television FOX News 35? There were tea parties all over Central Florida, with thousands of citizens, including viewers in Eustis, the Villages, Celebration, Winter Springs, Indian River, Melbourne, and in neighborhoods all over Orlando. There was no lead story, no coverage this morning between 7:45 and 8:30am. Not one peep. It isn’t my FOX Orlando any more.

Florida Tea Parties

Over three thousand American citizens down to the Orlando City Hall steps with picket signs, posters, and pitch-forked stuck pigs. There were American Revolutionary dressed patriots, citizens dressed like Death, and American Indians. There were conservative speakers on the Fair Tax, against the stimulus, and the anti-America hate speech that Øbama insists on spreading about in his oversea campaign tours. Constitutional rights were on the forefront of everyone’s thoughts.

Take at look at one of the 2,000 + Tea Parties going on today in the country. President Øbama are you listening? Congress, are you listening? 2010 is going to be a revolution in the voting booth. Liberals, Socialist Congress, and RINO’s, unemployment is in your future.

In attendance was Lisa Fereoli, organizer of the first Orlando Tea Party, RESISTnet, a national conservative grassroots organization, Fair Tax representatives, and the usual 911 conspiracy whackos along with liberal loonies.



Over hundred thousand American voters came out today to speak out. We’ve had enough!

Washington, D.C. here we come! July 4th everyone! Wait till you see the fireworks!

Local MSM’s Serve Condescension And Indifference On Tea Parties

leave a comment »

The size of the enthusiastic and patriotic throngs surrounding the Lake Eola amphitheatre at the Orlando Tea Party looks like it depends on partisanship as to attendance. Floridians Unite reports that “the city estimated it at 5000-6000 and the police on site wholeheartedly agreed.” The Orlando Slantinel reports that the police told them 4,200. Reading her description of the day, it wasn’t the same event I attended. I love the exactness of the 200 in totals and took offense at the reporter’s condescending article titled “Eola Tea Party” not the “Orlando Tea Party.” It’s first sentences describing the well-attended and emotional event on page B2 as one of the singers “shrieking.” The reporter made it seem more like a gathering of senior citizens and dog lovers who wrapped their “novel” banner around their dogs’ waists.

Helen Eckinger didn’t mention all ages from babies to the elderly were represented at the Orlando Tea Party. She didn’t mention all the Special Olympic parents that came to protest Obama. No recall of the fact that all local city and county officials were invited but NONE showed up. Nothing written about all the young people, teenagers and college students upset with the fiscal burden they are facing. No mention of entire families that were seriously concerned about their children’s future. Eckinger forgot to write about all the military veterans who were there and praise, gratitude, and admiration given to them by over and over through the day.

She didn’t mention the long lines of thousands of people so upset that they were willing to stand in line for hours to sign the parchment paper copy of the “Orlando Tea Party Constitution” which outlined each of the grievances and will be expedited to the White House.

Obviously, this quiet revolution is getting louder and the MSM’s are not going to help the rabble-rousers of rebellious Revolutionaries.

Even the local FOX affiliate television station gave it tawdry lip service on their website:

Tea Party Sets up Shop in Lake Eola

Trinnette Bowers, FOX 35 News
ORLANDO, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35, Orlando) – A huge crowd showed up at Orlando’s Lake Eola Saturday afternoon, to take part in a national movement called the “Tea Party.” It’s a throw back to the Boston Tea party, but this time, tea isn’t being dumped into the sea.

Cities nationwide have been holding the so-called “Tea Parties” as peaceful protests driven by conservatives who say they want less government, less wasteful spending, fewer bailouts, and no socialism. The “Tea Parties” are filled with people ranging from young and old, to current voters and future voters.

Now, that may be where they differ, but during these protest, they all have one thing in common; they’re all apparently worried about getting their piece of the pie. These “tea parties” are a national movement that has finally made its way to orlando’s lake eola.

Organizers plan to take a signed petition of sorts to washington d.C., demanding more accountability and, what they consider better leadership by President Obama’s administration.

Every conservative needs to rise up and contact these MSM’s and tell them to “Stop with the condescension. Just report the news. Don’t put your spin on it!”

It’s going to be up to us to save the US.

My indifferance is now directed at Channel 35 now… they won’t get my viewership anymore. Contact Fox 35 here.

Orlando Tea Party Largest To Date

with 6 comments

Orlando Tea Party 2009-03-21 12:53

The Orlando Tea Party at Lake Eola was a spectacular patriotic success and the largest Tea Party to date! The estimated crowd was nearly 6,000 attending! Ages of attendees ranged from newborns and their parents, young elementary students, teenagers, families, proud military veterans, and retirees. Bud Hedinger, talk show radio host at WFLA 540AM in Orlando emceed the event. Featured speakers were:

Special thanks to Lisa Feoreli, and the staff of the Bender Construction company who organized the entire event with the help of Bud Hedinger, and WFLA 540AM. Glenn Beck, who was in Orlando this week was unable to move his schedule around to appear. That did not dampen the sunshine and the enthusiasm of the conservatives attending from around the state and even from across the country!

Music was provided by Lloyd Marcus and the Macpherson trio. Marcus’s song “American Tea Party” a hit on the Internet made the people stand up and cheer.

At the event, Bud Hedinger asked each person in the audience to sign the Orlando Tea Party Constitution which was 50 feet long. The long lines of people wanting to put their John Hancock on the important parchment paper circled around Lake Eola. Monday, the Orlando Tea Party Constitution will be heading express mail to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Can’t wait till Obama gets home from his campaigning to read all of the signatures!

Special quotes:

Jon Gutmacher: “2nd Amendment: The rightof the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed upon! Remain vigilant!”

Lawrence W. Tudor: “So much wealth has been destroyed in the mindless rush to perdition. Free people have power that is more powerful than any other government! Find your voice!”

Andrea Shea King: “Washington, D.C. is the enemy.”

Kristinn Taylor: Joe Biden and Barack Obama need to apologize to Barbara West.”
Taylor attacked RINO Governors Charlie Crist and Arnold Schwartzenegger, clumping them in the same shameful category as Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Dick Schumer, Olympia Snowe, Patricia Collins, and Arlen Spector. The crowd booed and hissed in agreement. Taylor’s admonishment to the Democrats and RINO’s: “Remember what you sow in the wind, you will reap in the whirlwind.” High-energy and passionate, Taylor inspired the audience with a quote from Ronald Reagan, “Inflation is the cruelest tax of all.” He asked those listening avidly to be proud of the beliefs and do not hide themselves behind masks like the anti-Americans who wear scarves over their faces when parading at protests.

Lisa Feroli announced that the next Tea Party in Orlando could be held late summer.

Hidden Mickeys Are Everywhere

with 10 comments

UPDATE: Thanks to all the readers who thought it could be Minnie Mouse’s ears. But if you know Minnie at all, you know she never goes anywhere without her beautiful bows.

UPDATE: Yayyyy, Steve Barrett, author of the Hidden Mickeys books, the Hassle-Free WDW Vacation book, and the Hidden Mickeys Guide website added my Hidden Mickey to his collection!

It’s not the Virgin Mary on toast that I can sell on E-bay for $28,000 but the Disney Magic is so prevalent in the Orlando area that “Hidden Mickeys” appear everywhere! Even in splats from an individual creamer for a cup of tea. This happened while I was fixing my cup of tea right before a workshop and I was so tickled at seeing the good omen of Mickey Mouse ears that I had to run out to the car to get my camera.

I wonder if I can submit this to Steve Barrett’s “Hidden Mickey’s: A Field Guide to Walt Disney World’s Best-Kept Secrets ?

I guess living 15 minutes from Disney World is magical.

Realizing Your Daughter Is A Murderer

leave a comment »

Known for his angry outbursts against protesters and stressed pleas for privacy, George Anthony, grandfather of murdered Caylee Anthony and retired police officer went missing yesterday. He left his home at 8am and did not return in time for an afternoon appointment with Cindy, his wife and his attorney. Text messages from Mr. Anthony received in the afternoon by his wife stated that Anthony was depressed. Cindy Anthony reported her husband missing at 11pm last night. Using his cell phone pings, the Sheriffs department located George Anthony in a Daytona Beach hotel room. Anthony was taken to the hospital where he is undergoing tests.

The recently released pages of evidence indicates that his daughter really did commit this heinous crime. Evidence shows that a heart shaped sticker was placed on the duct tape that was wrapped around Caylee’s mouth. It may also reveal that the body of Caylee was moved after the Anthonys found the car.

Or does the suicide attempt indicate that Mr. Anthony, a former homicide detective may be involved in the crime?

In his situation, realizing that my daughter murdered my beautiful grandchild, I would probably do the same thing.

UPDATED: False Alarm

leave a comment »

UPDATE: 3:40pm Remains are determined not to be human.

UPDATE: 3:15pm Orange County Sheriffs are reporting that the bag doesn’t have any significance to the disappearance of three year old Caylee Anthony. They have bounty hunter Leonard Padilla agreeing to take a lie detector test. There’s more to come on this case.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Leonard Padilla did it? The world famous bounty hunter was outraged that he was lied to by the imprisoned mother and alleged murderer, Casey Anthony. Padilla vowed to find little Caylee Anthony’s body. Today, one day after Padilla held a memorial service for Caylee Anthony, a plastic bag containing toys, small bones, and a shamrock, weighed down with bricks was found by divers in the Little Econ River in Lake Blanchard Park. Casey Anthony has a shamrock tattoo and a necklace that she wore frequently was a green shamrock.

Caylee Anthony Is Dead

with 2 comments


On Friday forensic DNA tests released indicate that Caylee Anthony is dead. God rest that poor wee baby’s soul.

“The hair found in the trunk establishes that Caylee’s dead and that her dead body was in the trunk of the car. Even if they don’t find the body, it’s enough evidence, scientific evidence, to establish that she’s dead,” said Dr. Michael Baden, nationally-renowned forensic pathologist.

DNA testing done on that piece of hair and compared with a sample provided by Casey confirmed that neither Casey nor Caylee can be “excluded as the source of the hair,” because the “mtDNA sequences … are the same.”

Tests also confirmed “residues of chloroform” within a spare tire cover found inside the trunk of Casey’s car. “Residues consistent with chloroform” were also found within the left and right side trunk liner. The report says no other chemicals were detected within those items. Coupled with evidence that someone on Casey’s computer was researching how to make chloroform, it could explain how Caylee was murdered.

“That would indicate that chloroform has to be considered as a cause of the baby’s death,” Dr. Baden said.
