Tax Day Tea Party in St.Louis, Missouri

Locally & nationally organized "tea party" rally protesting multi-party spending & the Obama stimulus package was held in downtown St.Louis.

St.Louis held its second edition of the "Tea Parties" downtown at Kiener Plaza across the street from the Old Courthouse. Despite reports organizers were mainly local involving a St.Louis radio talkshow host, Dana Loesch & local business owner, Bill Hennessy with the help of such social networks as Facebook. A handful of people spoke & the only local politician in attendance was U.S. Representative Todd Akin who did not speak. During one speech the local Fox affiliate came under fire for a recent story misrepresenting the upcoming event. Most of the signs protested big government spending from both parties with aims at the current Congress & the Obama Administration at a close second. The entire event was peaceful and began to disband around 7:30pm when the last speaker finished.
