Help Us
Increase Our Numbers
The Tea Party Movement continues to grow. However, to
preserve the self-governing principles enshrined in the
Constitution, "We the People" have to be engaged in the
process. That doesn't mean you have to join a
political party. It does mean that you need know and
understand the principles of liberty. You need to be
aware of current issues so that you can be an informed
citizen.
Forward this email to your family, friends and neighbors and
ask them to join the Tea Party Movement. Have them
signup for our email notifications so that they can be
informed of current issues and events. As a thank you,
when they signup for the newsletter, they will be able to
download the following two documents:
COMMON SENSE: Revisited explains why there is
a groundswell of people beginning to return to our founding
principles and how this return can help us solve the many
problems that face our country. It is a pamphlet written to
transform hearts and minds.
THE LAW written by Frederic Bastiat is an
essay on economics and individual liberty. Its sound logic
is just as relevant today as it was when first published in
1850.
To get both of these, join the mailing list at the link
below.
We appreciate your
donations as well.
Thanks for supporting
the Georgia Tea Party.
Yours in liberty,
The Georgia Tea
Party
