Pamplets, Ideas

Hi there all!



Sorry I haven't been around as much, sparking off and all. I have been working on the pamplets, and the graphics and layouts are coming along a real treat, but I would love to have some ideas of subjects you would like to see covered. Also Ideas of websites, with accurate, well cited tax data would be an awesome help.



I want everyone to shout out ideas no matter how obvious because I really want pamplets that speak from the heart of all of us.

Idea Box

Okay I am being inspired by my kids favorite morning kid's show, Imagination Movers. They have an "Idea Box" to put random ideas in so they can pull them out later when they might need them.



So here is an Idea Box thread. If you have an idea and you don't want to start a new thread for it, or if you think it will be a great idea for later, but isn't a good idea now.... Put it in here. Then we can bat ideas around and polish them in the Box and pop them out when we need… Continue

Thoughts on a Platform

We are going to have to start thinking about a Platform and Mission Statement for the Tea Party. I think that this will happen on the National Level very soon. Right now what we can do as a start is agree on a few things that we all would like to say to any person that wonders what the Tea Party is all about here in Kalamazoo. Mostly I think we are all fairly well in agreement that we want to see Federal power returned to its appropriate level and the authority that has been usurped from the… Continue

You Say Extremist Like Its A Bad Thing!

I have heard alot lately about how the media has branded Tea Party goers rabid Right Wing Extremists. This has got alot of people worried about their future if they get involved in this grassroots movement. But I think its time we all sit back and re-think our knee jerk reaction to the word extremist and how we see extremism in action.



Whether we like it or not, most of us have been fairly well programed by the media to respond in certain ways to certain words. We are mostly tapped… Continue
