Now THIS is a Tea Party!!! UPATE: 75K in DC, 200 in St. Louis

Thousands of pro-liberty conservatives descend on the Capitol building in Washington, DC, to protest a government takeover of healthcare and to promote a Republican bill that saves lives and money.

In St. Louis, Tea Partyers, 9-12ers, and other concerned citizens are gathering now at Rep. Russ Carnahan’s office on Manchester at Brentwood for the St. Louis Congressional House Call, as citizens prepare to storm the castle and make Congress listen.

Rep. Todd Akin (R-MO):  “We are one nation under God.  It’s altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.  And it drives the liberals nuts!”  Missouri’s Akin led the Pledge of Allegiance at the protest on the steps.

Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN):  “It was Thomas Jefferson who said, ‘A little revolution now and then is a good thing.’”

Mark Levin: “They don’t know what they’re in for next November, do they?”  Crowd chanting “Vote Them Out!”

UPDATE:  Patch W. Adams points to ABC News report that puts DC House Call crowd estimate at 75,000+.  Wow!  I’ll bet Rayburn and Cannon Office Buildings are claustrophobic about now.  The plan was for all 75,000 to storm the corridors and let Congress people know how they feel.

RESTORATION!!

ST. LOUIS HOUSE CALL:  Report from Sharp Elbows who was at Rep. Carnahan’s office where AFP Missouri Director Carl Bearden paid a House Call on the short-timer from District 3.  Two hundred folks showed on a work day and on short notice.  Congrats to Carl and to the patriots who sent a loud and clear message to Carnahan and the entire Missouri delegation.

    Michelle Bachman was a guest today on Mark Levin’s radio show. Bachman felt the HCR bill Pelosi is bringing to a vote was a done deal. After today’s rally and patriot infiltration of the halls of congress Bachman’s not sure Pelosi has the votes. Levin speculated that Tuesday’s election also is playing a role, but when the peasants start showing up at the statist’s doorstep, it has to give some of them a moment of pause.

    The TP at Carnahan’s was magical. My third TP, this movement is mushrooming. Great people there, Mom’s with kids, wonderful..
    We delivered pages of signatures to Cong Carnahan’s offic staff. They were very polite and she said she would deliver them to Russ.

    More than half the cars driving by honk’ed enthusiastically.

    People just want to be heard.
