Last year, we were not able to go to the 9/12 rally in Washington, DC, since Greg’s company held its annual retreat on the same day.  We did not want to miss this year’s 8/28 “Restoring Honor” event, so we dug some airline and hotel points out of mothballs and made a trip of it with our 18-year old son. 

Here’s a short journal of our trip for those of you who might be interested. 

We left Austin very early Friday morning and (after the usual stop in another city that Bergstrom flyers are normally subjected to) arrived in DC around 1 pm.  We met Lily and Jim from the Bastrop Tea Party at Reagan National Airport and then headed over to the Washington Hilton.  When we arrived, our cabbie noted that “This is where Reagan was shot.”  Oh great.

BREAKING NEWS!

I just received a call from Chuck Stewart, President of The McAllen Tea Party Association and he said he had just hung up the phone on a call from Tami.She informed him that the “Restoring Honor” event in Washington, DC, hosted by Glenn Beck, will be broadcast live on C-SPAN and will be shown on 2 large screens at the Convention Center in McAllen.

The doors will open at 8:00 AM Saturday morning, so come early for a good seat. The event in Washington is scheduled to take place from 9:00 AM to Noon (CDT), then we will break for lunch. The regularly scheduled program will resume at 2:00 PM (CDT) when we will hear from several speakers as they honor our local heroes.

Tami said the program is scheduled to end about 5:00. Bob Jones of Corpus Christi will MC the event. There will also be special live music! FREE admission! Bring the kids and spend the day.

The Convention Center is located at the Ware Rd exit of Expressway 83.

I received the following in an email from the Rio Grande Valley Tea Parties list.  I phoned the number provided and spoke to Tami, who has been working overtime to make this event happen.  I’m thinking about livestreaming the event in McAllen, and if I do it’ll be view-able here at the TTTP.

Think Progress had a video purporting to show teapartiers as racist. Since this video first appeared, it has quickly been debunked and also forced Think Progress to apologize. Think Progress is brought to from the Center for American Progress.

Via The Right Scoop here is Glenn Beck tackling Think Progress’s smear. 

For more debunking of the video, please visit Pajamas Media.

Joe Scarborough, who hosts “Morning Joe” on MSNBC, tweeted,

Politicians in both parties continue to pursue a Wilsonian foreign policy that is radical and dangerous for America’s future.

He followed that up by saying,

When the US changed it’s Afghanistan goal from killing al Qaeda members to building a country, our leaders guaranteed an endless war.

Some random Tweep responded claiming the MSNBC talking head finally came around and joined conservative talk show host and FoxNews employee Glenn Beck and his Woodrow Wilson fixation.
