  1. Approx. 5000-6000 gathered in Phoenix to vent their frustration over the current situation in D.C. This was not a tax protest but a Government protest. Signs read "Obama you're taxing my patience" "Free markets, Not Free Loaders" "If the stimulus plan was on a telepromter would Obama have read it?" "Socialism is Slavery" etc.

    It was a cross section of America, young and old, jeans and suits. Very orderly and did not see any counter protests. We'll see if this gains momentum or fades before the next election.

  2. Wish I could have been there. You wouldn't have known it happened by watching the local news. Thank goodness for KFYI! I did like the comment I heard on the radio "This is the largest protest of employed people that I have seen!"
