New Jerseyans gathered on July 3 to attend the Morristown Tea Party’s Independence Day Rally, an event aimed at educating the public about the government’s failings. The event, held on the Morristown Green, was the second-annual Independence Day rally since the party was founded last March, event organizers said. The group is currently one of a dozen in New Jersey.
Speakers included Tom Adkins, a publisher of the blog CommonConservative.com, who flew in from Texas to attend the rally. In an impassioned and often angry speech from the flag-draped podium, Adkins berated both President Obama and former president George W. Bush, accusing them of turning the country into a welfare state, banishing God from public life, and creating an abysmal school system.
“Do you believe in evil?” Adkins asked the crowd. “That, to me, is evil.”
So what comes next, snake handlers and speaking in tongues?
