FW attended another Tea Party last week in Washington DC. Did you hear about the event? About 20,000 tea partiers gathered in Washington on November 5, 2009 at the request of Conservative Rep. Michelle Bachmann to rally against the Democratic written health care overhaul. Many congressmen and women spoke at the rally right out front of the Capitol Building. Protestors wanted to make sure their elected officials knew how they felt about the trillion-dollar health care bill. According to FW, it was a well attended and organized event. Here are some photos and if you wish to see FW's video of the event and additional photos, click here.
