Hello Pattriots,

We had a good turnout despite the weather today.  We had a dozen hard core Patriots out there standing in the rain.  We got lots of honks and thumbs up from passing cars.

Joni Schmidt from the Boerne Tea Party was there with some of their group.  We even had someone drive all the way from Laredo just to show her support.

I was interviewed by WOAI and Fox 29 as well as KTSA 550a.m.   Watch the 5, 6 and 10 newscast for the interviews.

Thanks again to everyone who showed up and thanks to those who couldn’t make it but were there in spirit.

In an effort to forego rhetoric in favor of informed discussion, the local conservative grassroots group, Austin Tea Party Patriots, will be hosting a “Healthcare Town Hall” August 20, 2009 from 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM in San Antonio. Headed by Dr. Clare L. Gray of the non-profit organization Physicians for Reform, the Town Hall will focus on “Finding a New Way Forward” – a program for healthcare reform that focuses on maintaining the physician-patient relationship within a structure that benefits all Americans. Please RSVP to: Diane Eagan at dr_eagan@yahoo.com
