Rally On The Mall Tea Party A Roaring Success

This evening I MC’d what I consider to be the largest protest event the state of North Dakota has ever seen.  On the capitol mall in Bismarck we had easily over 1,000 people gathered, signs in hand, to protest big, intrusive government.

There will be more pictures coming out shortly, but here’s a quick one I snapped from the steps during Public Service Commissioner Kevin Cramer’s speech:

The energy and passion on display at this event was nothing short of amazing.  And it wasn’t just coming from the stage.  While we had a number of intelligent, passionate, fired-up people speaking at the event what really stole the show were the comments from the crowd.  Veterans.  Business owners.  Laborers.  School bus drivers.  Plumbers.  You name it, they were on hand to have their say.  Some of the comments brought gales of laughter.  Others were so poignant people were visibly choked up.

It was an emotional event, all the way around.

I’m not sure there are many moments in my life that I will ever be more proud of than having the opportunity to organize this event with some of my fellow conservatives, and having the honor to add my voice to theirs in an effort to get this country back on the right course.
