Crystal Lake 4th of July TEA Party – 2

Rob Lee wasn’t the only speaker at Crystal Lake’s Taxed Enough Already Party on Independence Day.

This photo of Joe Alger with the megaphone clearly shows he is standing on a box of tea.

And, I can’t pass up the observation that the arrow on Route 14 is pointing right.

It was raining as is evident above. Being July 4th, I would assume it was still pretty warm outside.

ACORN’s role in taking the 2010 U.S. Census is ridiculed in one of the signs above.

ACORN
PUTS THE
“CON”
IN CENSUS

Another sign says,

WAKE UP
AMERICA
TAKE BACK YOUR
COUNTRY

Other placards visible above are

AUDIT
THE
FED

and

FREE
MY
GRANDKIDS

Here’s another one about cap and trade:

It says,

THEY’LL
CAP & TRADE
OUR FREEDOM
AWAY

I see a man holding a “Don’t Tread on Me” flag, but the best flag picture I received is of the Minuteman waving it:
One man’s sign concentrated on the amount of money that I think President Barack Obama’s administration has borrowed:

DEBT
$1.1 TRILLION

That’s the message.

There are lots of homemade posters in the photo below.

DON’T TAX
ME BRO

TAXES ARE REVOLTING
WHY AREN’T YOU

HELP ME
MR OBAMA
THEY WANT ME
TO WORK
AND STUFF

BORN FREE
TAXED
TO DEATH

SERVANT
NOT
KING

ONE
BIG
A**
MISTAKE
AMERICA!

And, there’s one small print that mentions the DNC. Maybe you can make it out if you click on the photo to enlarge it.

Then, there’s the sign with that great quote from President Ronald Reagan.

Government is not
a solution to our problem,
government is the problem.

Still more homemade signs:

If you’re not
outraged,
you’re not
informed.

I think the one behind says,

Government,
Keep Your
Hands Off
MY
Health Care
