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?
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.”
