3,000+ at Dallas Tea Party Express Rally
Organizers of the Tea Party Express caravan said it was the biggest crowd since they began a cross-country, grass-roots marathon last month in Sacramento, California.
Many attending the lunch time rally outside the Cape Buffalo restaurant carried signs reading “ObamaScare: It’s to die for,” “Hands off our Medicare & guns” and “‘We’re not going to pull the plug on Grandma’ — THEY JUST WON’T PLUG HER IN.”
The crowd was large and so vocal that 3 television choppers circled overhead feeding live shots to their respective stations’ Noon news.
“As at other stops, we were joined up on stage by local speakers and faced a roaring crowd all fired up to take America back from the Marx Brothers…. Obamo, Reido and Pelosio. They have a message for Washington…. Don’t with Texas!”
It was an energized crowd that overwhelmed the available space in the parking lot of a restaurant. Some people parked half a mile away. Passing cars on the congested corner blasted their horns in support. There were hundreds of signs. The buses were hailed like a military battalion returning from abroad.
The good news is that this story made at least three of the four networks – NBC, FOX and ABC at the 5 pm news casts. A TeaParty spokeswoman, said on NBC, “This is the biggest rally so far on the trip.”
The tour also made a “whistle stop” scheduled for 2:45 p.m. at an Interstate 30 rest stop in Mount Vernon, Texas; then continued on to Little Rock, Arkansas at 6 p.m. and Memphis, Tennessee at 10 p.m.
•11:00 AM – Rally in Dallas, TX – Cape Buffalo Grille, 17717 Addison Rd, Dallas, TX 75287
•2:45 PM – The Whistle Stop – Mile Marker 143; 1 hour and 45 minutes east of Dallas, TX; 170 miles east on Interstate 30; 4 miles west of Mt. Vernon, Franklin County, TX

“Just pics, no music, couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for–yes, I know the dates are wrong on some of the pics, for some reason my camera is a day behind despite being correct in the camera menu! Go figure. The photostory for this event was made with MS Photostory 3 for Windows. ” ~ CJ in Dallas, TX

Wild Thing’s comment……
Outstanding turnout! Never underestimate the will of the American people!
“… THEY JUST WON’T PLUG HER IN.”
I love Texans. This sums up Obamacare in a sentence fragment.
This is great. Woe be to these left wing nutjobs, who ignore the American people. When you wake them all up, it is awesome. The signs say it all, they get it.
Like the race fire obama’s trying to build all he has to do is open his mouth to keep the energy alive and the people are responding, in droves.
Great signs as always. PETA might have a problem with the dog sign though. hehe
I love the way people are coming together to fight these communists.
This eventwas well covered by all the local news media. At the same time the Tea Party Express was holding it’s rally, the bus for the support of health care was in town. It was mentioned by most of the news media, but I only saw one short video of it on one station. It did not draw much of a crowd. Texas is a very conservative state and the D/FW metro area is very conservative.
The news media also covered their whistle stop in the small town of Mt Vernon, Texas. The crowd there was also very large.
