Teabaggers to Descend on Grand Junction

UPDATE: With CNBC egging them on (to say nothing of FOX) at other events around the country, I’m sure they’re feeling pretty emboldened.

And how about that Denver Post providing free, unlimited tea party promotion for Polster and Dick Armey FreedomWorks blogger Ross Kaminsky?

I’m on several of the teabagger lists and forums, and it’s clear that they are organizing to turn out at President Obama’s town hall forum on health care this Saturday.

On a site for 9/12er assault rifle aficionados (I will not give them or any other right-wing site link juice, Use Google.), the clarion call is to bring the “violent and agressive” [sic] tactics to the President’s town hall that attendees have previously brought to Congressional town meetings. Another poster asked, “What about concealed carry..”

According to the Douglas County GOP, Jack Abramoff’s “grassroots lobbying” firm Americans for Prosperity is conducting a “Hands Off my Healthcare” rally at which “it is vitally important that Colorado Republicans make every effort to have a strong presence.”

According to NBC11, “speakers will include Senator Josh Penry, Utah Congressman Jason Chaffetz and others. Two other groups attending the rally include Tea Party Activists and 9/12ers from the Front Range. Wearing solid red, white and blue members of those two groups plan to meet on the corner of 12th and North. [emphasis added]”

The Jeffco Ron Paul people inform us that “the 912 Project and Tea Party groups are joining with AFP for this rally on Sat.”

Alex Jones (radio host and Ron Paul acolyte) is encouraging people to partake in the free guns being given away by the Front Sight Firearms Training Institute.
