21+ Reasons to Go to a Tea Party

April 8th, 2009, 11:48 am · 5 Comments · posted by Bill Goodwin

The Tea Party movement is gaining insane momentum, with some folks claiming as many as a thousand protests are planned. Still looking for a reason to attend? Here’s more than twenty. Add yours in the comments.

  1. You don’t like baby robbers.
  2. The government doesn’t want you to.
  3. If you don’t like the first one, just go to another. They’re happening everywhere, after all.
  4. Because you want your country — and your money — back. @michellemalkin
  5. You loved our video from the Fullerton Tax Revolt:

  6. It’s the perfect excuse to skewer rather disturbing effigies of the Governator’s bloody head.
  7. JP Freire is totally gonna streak through the Fed (along with Will Ferrell).
  8. You’re a fan of GoRemy.

  1. All the smart girls are doing it.
  2. Marty Feldman will apparently rise from the grave and attend the Boston Tea Party.
  3. You want to perform the Tax Freedom Song for thousands of people.

  4. You, too, can be one of millions of voices that suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced when the Debt Star attacks.
  5. It’s a perfect excuse to get drunk at 11am.
  6. Because even alien crop circles want you to.
  7. You like tricorner hats.
  8. cincinnati-tea-party-215-on-flickr-photo-sharingYou want to get published on the Huffington Post.
  9. You can express solidarity with Waco protesters without worrying about the FBI raiding your compound.
  10. You haven’t finished your taxes, and just want to forget about the pain for a little while. Oh…wait…
  11. You need to overcome your fear of Eleutherophobia.
  12. Because they think we’re stupid.
  13. Eric Odom has promised to do a kegstand on a vat of tea, going an additional second for every billion dollars spent by the federal government this year. For serious.
  14. You like coming up with slogans to take the edge off your sadness.
  15. You missed the memo about dangerous double entendres when it comes to the phrase “teabag.”
  16. You prefer your country to be not so bankrupt.
  17. You tell me: What Would Our Founding Fathers Do?
  18. You prefer Second Life to real life.
  19. Because while you can’t borrow to prosperity, you can borrow prosperity…from future generations.
  20. Your mommy is a Republican.
  21. You like scary death metal.

That’s all I have at the moment, but let’s hear your suggestions in the comments.

UPDATE I: Here’s some more gems:

  1. If I go to the local Tea Party, I need to make a sign that says “I’m here for the angry libertarian chicks.” @OttoBot
  2. So you can party like it’s 2099.
  3. Shelly Roche says so.

    IT IS TIME TO TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK! It is time to wake up the sleeping masses. Hopefully, this will be covered by some media outlet enough to make people look up from their facebook long enough to go “wonder what those people are doing?”… I’ll be there, kids in tow!

  • Because it scares the statists.

    ’cause it’s YOUR money, not theirs.

  • Julia says:

    I must say, I just don’t see why people care so much about money. There are so many more things that are worth focusing on than money.

    God is one.

    Render onto Ceaser what is Ceaser’s. Don’t be so caught up about money.
