Dear Members and Friends,

 

A little less than a month ago, we commemorated the 10th Anniversary of 

Al Qaeda's violent attacks on our political and financial institutions--in particular, 

the Pentagon and Wall Street.

 

In an amazing turnaround, the left, through Occupy Wall Street, is attempting to finish what Al Qaeda started.

 

Whether they promote the building of a mosque at ground zero or lead a movement to destroy one of the economic engines of America--Wall Street--they must be countered, intellectually, and defeated, politically.

 

As you know, the Association, along with four other area Tea Party and

Conservative groups, have formed a coalition to respond to Occupy 

Philadelpha/Wall Street.

 

John Sullivan, of the Cherry Hill Area Tea Party has named the coalition Liberate Philadelphia/Liberate America (see press release below).   

 

We will count the days until Wall Street and Philadelphia are liberated from the tent cities and the anti-business protestors who, like Al Qaeda, would destroy our economy.

 

The "occupiers" claim to speak for 99% of all Americans.  Amazing.  The only thing worse than not being able to speak for ourselves is to have a semi-organized group of leftist liars speaking for us.

On behalf of the Association Board of Directors,

Coalition Forms Liberate Philadelphia/Liberate America; 

Says Business must be Liberated from

 Job Killing Government Regulations

 

 

Philadelphia, PA (October 7, 2011) -- A Tea Party coalition, representing groups with tens of thousands of supporters and sympathizers in the

tri-state region (DE, NJ, PA), is announcing today that it is forming

Liberate Philadelphia/Liberate America in response to Occupy Philadelphia/Wall Street.

 

Leaders of American Sheepdogs, Cherry Hill Area Tea Party, Diamond State Tea Party, Independence Hall Tea Party Association, and UNITEPA have joined together to defend free enterprise and to

encourage the liberation of American business from the burdens of

excessive government regulations that have been enacted by the Obama Administration and have kept the private sector from creating jobs. 

 

We also need to liberate Philadelphia from the tent city that has sprung-up in the downtown area," said Association president and Montgomery County resident, Teri Adams.  "The homeless are not allowed to set up tents on public property--why would we let Occupy Philadelphia do so?" 

 

Cherry Hill Area Tea Party leader and Camden County resident, John Sullivan, came up with the name "Liberate Philadelphia" after Ms. Adams suggested forming a coalition. 

  

"Occupy Wall Street/Philadelphia's notion that Wall Street and Corporations are the root of all evil is foreign to us," said American Sheepdogs founder, Rich Davis, a resident of Chester County. "The recent death of Steve Jobs should serve as a reminder of the beneficial nature of businesses such as Apple Inc., of which Mr. Jobs had contributed substantially."

 

"Of course, like any other institution, Wall Street has its corrupt figures,"

said Diamond State Tea Party founder and Kent County resident, Kevin Street. "And those individuals should be prosecuted to the greatest extent of the law." 

 

"Our coalition deplores corporate bailouts (General Motors), corporate subsidies (Solyndra), and corporate welfare," said Ms. Adams.  "At the same time, however, we recognize the achievements of large and small businesses alike.  They put America to work."     

 

"And especially now, shouldn't we be harnessing the engines that create

jobs?" asked Sharon Cherubin, executive director of UNITEPA and resident of Lancaster County.
