The Cincinnati Tea Party is a grassroots, nonpartisan group opposed to wasteful government spending. Our core values are fiscal responsibility, limited government, and free markets. Our goals include influencing elections for the betterment of America, promoting state sovereignty (Federalism), and compelling our elected officials to comply with the Constitution as written by our Founders.
To accomplish our goals, the Cincinnati Tea Party:
• Fosters the Voice of Americans to be heard through rallies, forums, and town halls.
• Supports the Education of Americans for a better understanding of our Declaration of Independence, our Constitution, our Bill of Rights, and the authority granted to our government by the People.
• Impacts the Elections in America by encouraging virtuous American citizens to run for office at the local, county, and state levels so that the conservative American voice may be heard.
The Cincinnati Tea Party was founded by a group of lifelong Cincinnatians in February 2009. In April 2009, Community Tea Parties were launched to allow local leaders to spread the core values at the neighborhood level.

Nice photo set.
Too bad it really does look like an “Anti-Obama” rally and not some altruistic movement to really end spending.
Here’s my prediction: some time in the next 20 years, republicans get back in control of Congress and the White House, and most of you go back to calling all war opponents “traitors”, yet again.
“Impeach Obama Now”? Give me a break! The only thing undemocratic is to call for the ouster of a democratically elected leader because you don’t like their policies. But hey, look what the Republican administration did in Iran in the 1950’s, so I guess I am not all that surprised after all.
What about that sign that wants “Lower Taxes / Second Amendment / Limited Government” and then subsequently calls for “Secure Borders / No Amnesty”. Can you say “Hypocrite”? I doubt that person even knows (or cares) about Amendments 3-10 in the Bill of Rights.
