Here’s an AFP report on “tea party” demonstrations: Anti-Obama ‘tea party’ protests mark US tax day.

NEW YORK (AFP) – Critics of President Barack Obama marked national tax day Wednesday with “tea party” protests that Republicans are calling the birth of a grassroots opposition, but Democrats dismiss as a fraud.

Initially small crowds gathered under blustery skies in Washington, New York and Boston to protest taxes, government bailouts, and Obama’s big-spending budget proposals.

Organizer Eric Odom said protests would take place across almost 800 cities in a “new day for the freedom movement.”

Who is Eric Odom, in addition to being the organizer and spokesman of the tea parties?

A big supporter of Ron Paul.

UPDATE at 4/15/09 11:15:46 am:

Here’s Eric Odom, with an article at wacko conspiracy website “The National Expositor,” arguing that Ron Paul’s Poll Results are Valid.

Take a look through some of the other stuff at the National Expositor site, if you want to know why I label them as “wackos.”

The concept of the rock-guitar solo in the eightees has pretty much been reduced to: Weedly-weedly-wee, make a face, hold your guitar like it's your weenie, point it heavenward, and look like you're really doing something. Then, you get a big ovation while the the smoke bombs go off, and the motorized lights in your truss twirl around!" -- The Real Frank Zappa Book.
