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.

More than 2 dozen members of the San Antonio Tea Party showed up on Aug 12th to protest Rep. Charlie Gonzalez.   You can read the article here.

WOAI was also there. You can see their video here.

In Austin, Congressman Doggett got an earful from a group of Texans who are fed up with the government trying to take over health care and ruin it. He complained that people not from his district were there (guess we don’t have 1st amendment rights). Congressman Doggett also accused the protesters of being part of an organized effort by the Republican and Libertarian parties. I guess only the Democrats can have a real grassroots movement according to the congressman’s “logic”.
