Third Tuesday Tea Time

PRESS RELEASE

CAPE COUNTY TEA PARTY

THIRD TUESDAY TEA TIME

On February 19th, 2013 at 6:30pm, the Cape County Tea Party (CCTP) will hold its open monthly meeting at the Cape Girardeau Public Library. The meeting is called the Third Tuesday Tea Time (TTTT) and is held on the Third Tuesday of each month to continue the work to complete our Mission as stated below.

Our speaker this month is Bryan Fischer, the Director of Issue Analysis for Government and Public Policy at the American Family Association.

Having just heard the President's state of the union address, Bryan will respond a bit to that... ...possibly disagreeing with some things the President said or proposed. He plans to talk about the First Amendment and what it does and does not say about religious freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of the press and freedom of association as well as how badly it is being interpreted and understood by most Americans today.

In light of the controversy over guns, he'll talk some about the Second Amendment as well, and what it does and does not mean.

Given the time, he might also speak on the 14th Amendment and what it does and does not mean regarding debt and this endless bloviating about "paying our bills."

Be sure to bring your Constitutions!
