Tea Party against Amnesty April 15

Ray and Robin attended our last event. We never even talked about ALIPAC, Gheen, etc. We talked about the fight. I am doing this simply because many other rallies are being held the same day for the same fight.

Gheen is trying to piggyback on the Tea Party movement. He collects huge amounts in donations, yet ask yourself how often he hosts events and uses those donations to pay for them. What is he doing with all those donations? Hosting rallies and events does cost money, but he doesn't use his donations for any the events that I know of. He expects others to pony up the money. All these rallies on the 15th that he has asked be held, is he sending any funding to support them?

Everyone should attend any anti-illegal immigration rally or protest that they can, yet give the credit to those who actually financed it and put the effort into it at the local level. Gheen just sends out an email, how much did that cost him?

Like I said before, I receive nor donate any money to ALIPAC. I just figured that since there are many protests, that day, that I would be glad to attend one. Fact is, last time, my wife brought hot dogs and hot chocolate to all that attended. This was out of my pocket.

I really don't care about whatever issues that members here have with William, I am in it for the fight, period.

Hope to see some of you at this event.

Happy Easter to all.
