Tucson's Last Stand

Last Saturday, Oct. 10, my family and I attended a "Tea Party" in Tucson called Tucson's Last Stand. The local paper reported that there was about 6000 of us! It was wonderful! There were Democrats, Republicans, and Independents in attendance who are tired of the current administrations' lack of transparency, high spending, health care plans, etc. I tried to get a picture of the crowd but this is only about 2/3 of them. We were sitting at the first base line at the Tucson Electric Park ballpark and there was more above, below, and behind us. James T. Harris, a talk show host, was the emcee and he did great! There were speakers running for Tucson city council and other organizations. Then came the main speakers.....



Barry Goldwater, Jr. spoke and he was great. He talked about his dad and we did purchase his book, "Pure Goldwater." I will read it when I finish the book I'm currently reading.


J. D. Hayworth, a former AZ congressman gave a wonderful speech! Hopefully he'll run for the Senate seat. Great conservative, values and morals.


And the last speaker was Judge Andrew Napolitano of Fox News. The last 10 minutes of his speech was inspired preaching about God!! He had the audience on their feet in agreement many times!

I am proud to be an American and I love the Constitution. Have you read it? Do you know your rights? Do you know that the current government is way overstepping their limits according to the Constitution?? I'm also a member of ResistNet, an organization to fight socialism and to preserve grassroots America and the Constitution. I'm also a member of the Arizona Patriots, a state group of ResistNet. I was not politically minded until the middle of the Bush's last term and do NOT like the direction our "government" is taking us. I believe strongly that a person should not complain about the way things are going if they don't vote as that's a vote FOR what's going on. We have a right to let our elected officials and the government know that WE elected them to work FOR us!! Take a stand! Be involved!
