Well here goes, photographer was Mrs Berry Laker and comments are by me. Mrs BL found a new love( besides me) shooting with a camera. Thanks dear.
March 7.2009. 10:40 am, just arrived. Wow, It's really happening
They come in all ways of transportation. She has a fork in her hand.
Looks like 19 to 20 people, that's all I see!
10:50 am, whats the blue sign on the truck?
10:55 am, looks like the crowd is building, holy cow!
A good conservative goes out of his way to do good!
I see one local politician in the crowd. Where are the rest?
The American dream with a real politician who cares!
Holy cow! MSM covering the tea party! I feel a tingle up my leg!
10 55 am There are people here. The American Dream. Crowd Growing.
On the edge of the Fox River. 42 degree's, warm and comfy!
Let's get ready to R U M B L E !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seems like everyone is broke these days. O B A M A, O B A M A
The leader of our party has troops stationed in Green Bay and ACORN, what can you say.
There a sign with that Chavez guy, who would of thought. See Friday post.
Amen sister. Spread the word.
Seems to be a lot of pork interpretation. Oink, oink, oink!
Life is important to conservatives.
Got that right, but who in Washington will listen?
They are three stooges all right and we want to keep our money.
The revolution begins. Oink, oink, oink, oink!
Who in the heck is this guy? This is Berry Laker in disguise. Nice club Gitomo shirt. Hey bud, you need to loose some pounds.
Creative signs by all. They are turkeys in D C.
O B A M A , O B A M A , O B A M A , O B A M A , O B A M A !
Yes, you have it right sir. Free markets is the answer but no one is listening yet.
The red white and blue and how true. Not for us!
We go from the eagle to pork. How did we get here?
Seems two themes stands out, high taxes and socialism.
Common sense from common people, we hear you guy.
Yea baby, the clouds of revolution are forming.
Gitmo / Gitmo new. Rush, you were at the rally with us!
Green Bay's finest are showing up. Do they think there will be riots.
Almost ready to go, Must be over a 1000 people and we didn't start yet.
This was the first police officer to arrive. Reports were they didn't know what was going on.
Free shirts being thrown out. The future of our country. Son, we are proud of you.
Mark Savard, our first speaker. Running for 8th in 2010.
Mark again pumping up the crowd.
MSM reporter probably said, looks like twenty people to me
A young republican collage student. Speak louder!!!!!!!!!!!
The MC Jerry Bader from WTAQ. Thank you Jerry for the heavy lifting.
Just like the old days, a pitch fork in hand. Again small croud?
Who's the guy in the van. reports were he was secret service.
Give us back our government.
No more PORK! No more PORK! No more PORK!
What a bunch of GREAT Americans.
A good feisty crowd of conservatives.
Even Ron Paul supporters.
Were mad as hell and were not going to take it anymore!
Thanks to WTAQ and Jerry but they need a better sound system (LOUDER).
The walk to Kagens office.
Looks like only twelve people to me.
The WDNR hood winked us. said to be watching for tea polluters.
Proud to be from Northeastern Wisconsin.
Traffic backed up for the seven block walk.
At this point someone from an upper room at the Hotel Sierra started yelling Obama, Obama, Obama. We were just showing our controlled , peaceful walk to Kagens office. They kept yelling Obama. We had no other choice. Everyone peacefully walking erupted in a chant, JUMP. JUMP, JUMP. Stupid lefties. It was GREAT!
We finally arrived at Kagens office where the crowd assembled.
A lady a couple houses from Kagens office was outside her door cheering the tea party goers on. I asked her if Kagen was at his office. She yelled back "he'd would be stupid if he was!' You know, if Steve Kagen really cared about the people of the 8th district he should of been there to talk to the people that are scared and concerned about the economy and the stimulus he voted for. It just proved Steve Kagen is a coward and hides behind his ilk!
Mark and Jerry told everyone we need to keep this going. Need to volunteer, participate in any way you can to take our country back.
Kagen must go, Kagen must go, Kagen must go, Kagen must go, erupted from the crowd.
The walk back to Title Town.
Pork rinds were left at Steve Kagens door. There's that Berry Laker guy again. Nice Gitmo shirt. All and all it was a peaceful protest. We thank Jerry Bader and Mark Savard for getting the rally to a great success. We also thank the good hard working officers of the Green Bay Police Department who directed traffic thought the streets of Green Bay. We even had some of them give the protesters a thumbs up.

Many thanks for the pics and comments. Looks like April 15th in Madistan could be huge, if this is any indication.
Awesome pics! I put a link to this post on the main article at PorkRevolution.org. ;-)
How did you allow that anti-war protester, yellow sign, "no tax dollars for killing babies" about mid-way through the photos? What's wrong with you guys, support our troops, hey.
Great pics Paul. But did you have to get me in the pic with the College Republican speaking??
There goes the anonymity of the Try 2 Focus guy. LOL
Heads up ... send your pics to pjtv.
Saturday was just the beginning!
The Green Bay Press Gazette said "More than 500 participants attended an outdoor tea party rally...."
I did a Google search: tea party green bay ...and only found two members of the traditional media, Fox 11 News and Green Bay Press Gazette mentioning anything about it. The Wall Street Journal Online had some stuff, but it was just links to Michelle Malkin. Makes your efforts all the more important. Great work, Mr. & Mrs. Berrylaker...about time we Conservatives speak out. I like the pork-rinds-left-at-the-door idea...LOL.
BTW...Hate to break this to you, but Kagen was having tea with Barry and Michelle Obama while giving them tips on how to run the country...that's why he wasn't available.
Great photos and absolutely LOVED the comments that accompanied them!! OMG! I didn't know you were the other one wearing the Club Gitmo shirt! I would love a copy of the two of us in our Gitmo Gear!
Here's to the next Tea Party!
Katrina
To all that were there Saturday, to all that keep us informed. To all those that know how important this country is to us, you well know we have to take it back.
Sorry, but I never received six comments on any one of my posts before and usually try to comment back on each one. Just a plain guy so hope you don't mind six comments in one back to all of you.
Asian, thank you. You do great work and you are on my daily list to read. I have to work on the 15th but will spread the word to make it a success. Keep me informed.
David, you are doing great work carrying the torch for a lot of us. Keep it up and thank you.
dadofone, I have to go back through the pictures and look into your comment. I do support our troops. If it was not for them, I would not have the freedom I have today. Thank You for looking me up.
Brad, which one are you? I'll tell Mrs B she took your picture. A important guy like you should never go unnoticed. You have always kept me informed and will always be grateful for that. I owe you a beverage. I know you also did a lot of work for Saturday, we all owe you for that. We have to get together sometime. Thank You for all your hard work. Keep it up.
Roland, I also watched the news and was disappointed in the coverage. So Kagen was having tea and crumpets with the POTUS?
Geez, who was that who put pork rinds by the door? I brought three and gave two away. Thank you again.
Katrina, was that you? Sorry, I should of mentioned to you where my pictures were going but then I only get three or four readers to my blog anyway. Hope you don't mind. I'm on a diet so let me lose weight and get a shirt like yours for a picture at the next rally. Thank you so much for being there, It was my first rally and you really helped me break the ice with your shirt, it's the power of our conservative leader you know (Rush). The old or new Gitmo shirt will be my standard uniform at all future rally's. Thank You so much for the comment.
To all of you, have a GREAT and productive week. We all need to keep this going.
Paul - Berry Laker
Paul,
In the one where Matt (I think that was his name) is speaking I'm the only other one in the picture besides Jerry.
As for media coverage WBAY on their online article was the only one to mention the crowd estimate of 1200 - unlike Fox 11 and the local paper - who didn't do any follow-up. NBC 26 had video. WFRV was the only one with no coverage.
But then again do we as conservatives expect anything less than the "blurbs" given by the MSM?
Notice in all the coverage NO ONE spoke to the main organizer Mr. Savard.
Don't worry Paul you aren't the only one getting things on your site that you aren't used to with this "awakening" taking place ...
Berry,
No worries about the photo being posted. This was my first protest rally as well. I saw your shirt and figured there was someone I could approach and say "Hi" without worry.
Any word about a Green Bay Tea Party Rally on 15 April? I really don't want to travel to Madison....
Katrina
Brad,I thought you security for Jerry. I will introduce my self at the next big get together. The conservative revolution continues.
Jerry was right, we need to keep the ball rolling. Keep me informed, and keep up your GREAT work.
Thanks Paul
Katrina,
We need to build the Rush Gitmo army (Northeastern Wis. Chapter) in upcoming rallies. I nominate you as president and I'll volunteer to be secretary, still would need a VP. Members must have the the official Club Gitmo uniform. Wouldn't that be something. We could get Rush to speak at our first meeting. The Green Bay school district didn't want him to speak but we sure wouldn't mind.
I have not heard anything about the Green Bay Tea Party information, just Madison as of this minute. I will post something and look into it.
Thank You again and have GREAT day and a GREAT week.
Great rally. I'll be there April 15th. dadofone, has it occurred to you that the tax dollars mentioned on the sign were probably against supporting abortions?
Don Stewart
Don, thanks for the comment.
I think you are right about dadofone. That is my take also. Not sure which party you are going to Appleton , Madison or both, just wan t to say, welcome.Invite your friends and neighbors.
Have a GREAT week.
Hey all,
I'm the other college republican with the Ron Paul sign.
just one question:
why does the caption say 'even ron paul supporters'?
Ron Paul, like myself, is an Austrian economist. Can anyone else claim to know WHY we support free markets, other than it just being a talking point?
all in all, great pics!
