January of 2009, the first Tea Party rallies began. The number count was only 568 nationwide. Our numbers have grown expeditiously throughout the past eleven months. So far, this year over four million have attended the rallies throughout the US and the numbers are still growing. By the election in November 2010, we will be unstoppable.
The attendance numbers for the past eleven months are as follows:
January - 568
February - 18,578
March - 59,655
April - 1,349,921 and on April 15, the attendance numbers were 1,207,251
May - 11,181
June - 110,962
July - 557,945 and on July 1 to the 4, the attendance numbers were 448,451
August - 411,888
September - 1,822,038 and on September 11, the attendance numbers were 1,822,038
October - 128,766
November - 143,816
Overall attendance for the year was 4,146,311.
Now I ask you the question, are we, or are we not, a force to be reckoned with? What are the liberals going to say about this one? I think we know.
To our so-called representatives in Washington: The Tea Party in growing faster than, the plague of Locus that swarmed Egypt in the Bible. Your party on Capitol Hill is over! Americans across this great country have awakened, and went to the open window and yelled with one resounding voice. “WE’RE MAD AS HELL AND WE’RE NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE”. Our train is coming and if you are not on board, than you’re on the tracks. Remember when you go back to work in January, this will be the last year that you serve as our elected officials. Don’t let the door hit you in the rear, on your way out of Washington. Need I say more?
I would like to thank Frank Ross for the time he put in. Researching and compiling the data on the attendance of The Tea Party rallies. Without his diligent work, this article would have not been possible. Hats off to you Frank.

NOTE: “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore”. Quite from the 1976 movie Network
