Street Car Named Retire
Are you unhappy with Senator Mary Landrieu?
Baton Rouge Tea Party, along with Tea Parties from around Louisiana,
will be gathering in New Orleans on Saturday, December 12th 2009, to
give Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) and Senator Mary Landrieu
(D-LA) a real Louisiana welcome to their elite fundraiser on exclusive
St. Charles Avenue.
We want Senator Reid to know how much we appreciate him using $300
million of our money to buy Senator Landrieu's recent vote on the health
care bill, and we want Senator Landrieu to know how much we appreciate
her voting against her constituents. As this is the Holiday season, we
will be singing appropriately-reworded Christmas Carols for their
enjoyment.
The gathering will start at 10:00am on the neutral ground (median to
non-New Orleanians) at Toledano and Pleasant Streets, between St.
Charles Avenue and Prytania Street. We will progress from there down to
the fundraiser for some caroling and speeches. Everyone is encouraged
to bring holiday-themed signs and banners.
Parking in uptown New Orleans is very scarce, and we do not want to
inconvenience the neighbors. Therefore, we ask that participants please
park away from the event and take the streetcar. It's a wonderful ride!
The streetcar runs from downtown along the St. Charles Avenue and up South Carrolton Avenue to Claiborne Avenue. On Saturdays, the streetcars run about every 15 minutes. Fares are $1.25 per person per ride. The route and stop schedule can be found here.
We will be meeting at 8am at the Seigen Lane Walmart and convoying to
New Orleans.
It would be great for all drivers to fly a car flag
in the convoy parade to New Orleans.
We understand that the American Car Flags are almost
non existant in the stores, so we ordered some and will be selling them
before our drive to New Orleans.
