My only comment to the accusations were: 1. Have you attended a Tea Party event?
If you had, you would see all races attend and on top of that all signs were checked for hate speech and profanity before you could enter the stadium on 4/15. We already police ourselves! We need no one telling us to do it!

You might notice that references to the Creator in this video are not made in casual context but in a meaningful manner. All conversations I have had with fellow Tea Party Members, with respect to spiritual matters, reflect a reverence for the Creator that is appropriate for those who recognize His Sovereignty.

The Creator is neither Democrat nor Republican; however, with His Help, We the People can restore this Nation to the solid foundation on which it is based.

As this political season progresses I pray that we do not loose track of the value of Character, Integrity, and Faith in the process of choosing our elected representatives.

Listed below is a piece of Scripture which was common knowledge among the people of the founding colonies. Because of their Faith and willingness to serve their Creator we are able to enjoy a remnant of their labor. By following their lead our nation can be restored.

2 Chronicles 7:14 (New International Version)
14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Trust in the Lord, His love for you is not measurable by human standards.

Grace and Peace to you as always,
Bill Todd

Only racist bring up the subject. Everyone was an american till the word racist was used.Only way it will ever end is when they the people of color start saying there americans. Not african american not mexican american not german american or russian american. You all need to just get over it an leave your culture bags at the gate an start being americans. an speaking english in public would be a good start fricken start.

This event was a one of the most meaningful events my husband and I have ever attended. We had been to the first Tea Party in this area demonstrating our disapproval of Rep. Dennis Moore's support for the Stimulus Bill and to countess other events in Kansas City since that day.

This event topped them all. We were Americans, united, to pray for the survival of our precious Constitution and celebrate the real America! The Military Tribute where all Veterans were asked to come down on the ball field and be recognized was especially moving for my husband (26yrs USA and USAR) and all other Viet Nam era Vets, many of whom expressed that this was the first time they had truly felt welcomed home.

The tears flowed unashamedly from men and women on the field who began to heal in that moment of recognition. Each Vet, in a singular tribute, was shown on the ballpark scoreboard screen as they exited the field. The tears flowed from the people in the stands and constant applause was heard for over 20 minutes. My hands hurt but my heart was filled with pride.

I now hope for change from the collective mentality of some in this country. The name calling is a tool the Leftists know well, change the language, change the subject. Tell a lie often enough it becomes the truth. NOT THIS TIME. We are finally aware of the threat from inside this Nation. God bless the Tea Party and the people involved with the true mission of saving our great Republic.

I am thankful that I was at the April 15 Tea Party rally. It was so positive and inspiring and no one would find any hint of racism. I was honored to be on the field with hundreds of vets being cheered and recognized for our service. This was America at its best! What a contrast to the angry, hateful, racist remarks being reported and promoted to discredit anyone who opposes their liberal anti-American views. We will stand up and work to restore America to the shining example of hope and prosperity that is being destroyed.

Wonderful Response to what I experienced as a part of the great "WE The People" gathering here in Kansas city....... Many times I shed a tear at the pride I felt and joy that" We All", were represented red and yellow black and white!!
