    Nice website. Interesting that comments are disabled on all areas of the website. I guess this is to avoid hearing from supporters and critics alike?

    A "Kids Section"? Really? And people are having an issue with the President talking to kids. Granted it is empty like the majority of the site, but the layout is nice.

    Best of luck with your organizing efforts. Hopefully you are true to your cause...

    OKC Tea Party About
    We are determined patriots, whose minds and hearts are fixed on the noble purpose of restoring the limited Republican form of government the Founders created in 1789.
    So which party platform do you all support? The Federalists? The Democratic-Republicans? How well do even 10% of the folks that go to your rallies truly understand American history?

    Thanks, but I am the wrong color. My perceptions of the tea party's are they are primarily a white's only gathering.

    I am Native American. It was pretty sickening to see them don the pretend feathers mimicking Native Americans.

    Have fun. I shall respectfully agree to disagree with you folks on the whole tea party gathering.

    And no, I am not a liberal, nor do I think Obama is a savior. So don't even go there.

    How can you tell they aren't Native American? Plenty of NA I know are blond haired and blue eyed, or otherwise look just like "white" people.

    That's a good question.

    Respect for the eagle feathers, and their use in ceremonials is a pretty good indication of their mindset. I also know plenty of white-blond haired people who have Native ancestry. But if they are raised within their cultural ties, especially here in Oklahoma, they learn to respect the traditional ways of our people.

    Or...the tea partiers do not like the President period, regardless of what he does or doesn't do, that is pre-judging. Prejudicial being the operative word here. If someone is against Obama, it seems that no matter what the POTUS does or doesn't do, they are against it, him, and whatever policy being discussed.

    If the tea party were representative of people (of all races, party lines, etc) simply disagreeing with how the country is being run or simply did not like the way the POTUS is running things, I would be inclined to listen.

    Like speaking to school children. Quite a bit of stir there. Wasn't "W" speaking to an elementary school class when he found out about 9/11? I don't seem to remember people getting their panties in a bunch over "W" going to speak to a classroom.

    That makes sense. Thanks.

    Of course you know the minds of all the people attending those "tea parties". Nothing prejudicial about that...nope.

    What does "An open invitation to everyone..." mean to you?

    No, he was reading a book to the class, not giving an address to them (well, technically he was actually speaking.)

    The Tea Parties is for the parents of skin heads/white supremacists groups, that they can join openly.
    Fat headed slow witted drunk POS.
    They just cant get over the fact while they assume others will be just as racist as themselves in not electing a black man as POTUS, they sat at home and didnt vote and now they are behaving as traitors to this UNION.
    This Union is far from being perfect, and they cant see that it is not as perfect for everyone as it was for them.

    Oh, I am so sorry. I hope you feel better very soon. Maybe you just have a bad summer cold - rest and drink fluids.

    If I'd have been doing any hexing, it would have been something more spectacular like measles or chicken pox!

    Hmmm, I do enjoy a good nonpartisan gathering, one where there is no adherence to one particular set of views, where all are treated with respect and dignity, irrespective of race, creed, religious views, political affiliation, goals for the direction of government in the future.

    Is that the type of gathering that is contemplated, a gathering free of bias and discrimination of views? If so, might be interesting.

    Conversely, if this is a gathering for we all think alike and we think differently than mainstream repubs, dems and other known organized parties, and we only want the like
    minded around us when we gather, it will likely hold less interest to me. and I'll probably do something else that day, like maybe go hang with some True Blood fanatics for the end of season show that night.
