What started as a twitter conversation between local RIGHTY bloggers... Joan from The World According to Me, Wendy Day from For a Better Day and twitter-maven MelanieAnn79, turned into an event that drew hundreds of taxpayers to the Capitol steps from all across Michigan.

Wendy, Joan and the team will be blogging about the event in their own awesome way but I wanted to give them each a shout-out and a big congrats on an amazing turn-out, that had everyone buzzing, from both regular citizens, moms, dads and kids all the way to the mainstream media...

Folks are fed up and they are not going to take it any more. These weren't Republicans and they weren't Democrats.  Both parties were roundly and lustily booed for their hands in the Congress's recent out-of-control spending.  These were Michiganders coming together simply to say enough is enough.

Just a few photos from after the event as folks mulled about following the program, discussing politics and where our nation goes from here...
