Santa Ana Tea Party A Huge Success

It couldn’t have been a prettier day in Santa Ana’s Plaza of Flags today, as well over 1,000 people gathered, appropriately close to the Ronald Reagan Federal Courthouse, which you see in the background, to protest the actions of the very un-Reaganesque Barack Obama. Here’s a photo scrapbook of the event, which featured no broken bank windows and no confrontation with police.

Here are some shots to give you a sense of the size of the crowd:


And finally, here’s how the Left and the mainly marginalized media will view the entire event:

This event was grassroots all the way – no MoveOn.org or ACORN lurking in the shadows, making it into just a display of astroturf. It was of the people, by the people, for the people. And the White House has the temerity to say the president is unaware of today’s tea parties. That’s the best his brilliant message strategists could come up with? There is hope for us yet!
but if that’s his position, I say, “Mr. President, rest assured that we are very well aware of you, and what you’re doing to our country.”
