I'm afraid I don't have anything other than what I'm pretty sure is the official website they set up for the Orlando event: http://www.orlandoteaparty.com/.

There is a contact form on that website that may get you in touch with them.

Thanks for reading the article, and I wish you a very, very successful event where every you are!!!

A Tea Party is scheduled for Asheville, NC April 15, late afternoon, so people who have jobs can come after work.

Do a google search for advice on planning a tea party. It's out there.

You know people claim that they are patriotic and they want to be kept safe while keeping their freedom. Unfortunately that freedom comes at a price. This tea party BS is nothing more then a mockery of an important historical event. Furthermore the only people protecting freedom are the soldiers of this country. The men and women who come back and find that they can’t find a job. This country has forgotten about customer service. Companies and entrepreneurs have decided to produce lesser products and services while charging ridiculous prices in order to get rich quick. That is the real reason we are all in this mess. This is not patriotism or the American dream that some people claim it is. This is nothing more then greed. You want to be free? then this country has to pay for it on a whole and if lower class and the poor can not pay( which any moron would know that if they can get jobs then they can’t pay, and don’t give me that “they are just lazy crap”) then the rest of the country either has to step up and do it. It is either that or just let the U.S.A. be come another third world country. Funny though I see many people protesting this now when they should have been protesting years ago to prevent this.

You're darn right that freedom comes at a price, and you're darn right that our military folks are giving the most to keep our freedom and safety (I know--I was one of them for 10 years).

But you are profoundly mistaken if you think the patriots who participated in the Tea Parties are uncommitted to the freedom and welfare of our nation.

In fact, your Marxist bashing of free enterprise tells me you probably don't have a clue what principles America is built on, or about what it means to be an American. You hypocritically talk about "greed" when in fact it is you who are apparently greedy--envious and greedy for the property of someone else, envious and greedy for what you have not earned.

No one forces you to buy products you don't like...but the government forces you to give up your hard-earned money for things you disagree with, things that are immoral, and things that are clearly not authorized by the Constitution.

If you like socialist paradises where government doles out the fruits of one person's labor to another, and keeps its oppressive thumb on businesses, there are plenty of rat holes like that around the world. I invite you to go find one more to your liking and live there.

Meanwhile, the rest of us freedom-loving, Constitution-embracing patriots will work on getting this free nation back to the roots that made it the greatest nation on earth.
