About A New American Tea Party

What has driven hundreds of thousands of people to take to the streets in protest since late February, 2009? A cry of "enough" government expansion and interference and a reassertion of individual liberty: a first principle that became a rallying cry behind a movement. A New American Tea Party presents the voices behind the growing discontent among every day citizens with increased government taxation, spending, and intervention.

I was fortunate enough to have been involved in the first modern day tea party in February of 2009, an effort that sparked off a nation wide movement. On tax day in April 2009, hundreds of thousands of citizens gathered in more than 800 cities to voice their opposition to out of control spending at all levels of government. In August, citizens in every state of the union made their voices heard at congressional town hall meetings. On September 12, 2009 over half a million people marched on the U.S. Capitol.

A New American Tea Party explains how these protests evolved and were organized, and distills the results-including the often bizarre media backlashes-of the movement, the philosophy behind the movement, and the road ahead.

• Chronicles what sparked the protests, why they were necessary, and makes the case for why the movement can and will continue to be a formidable political force
• Details the often malicious media and political backlash to the movement
• Paints a vivid picture of the vastly differing principles and approaches of activism on the Left and the Right
• Discusses timely issues including the heated national health care debate, “cap and trade,” unions, ACORN, and more
• Presents a call to action and discusses a road to victory for the movement and the principles it espouses

If you're concerned with the growth of government, the state of the union that we will pass on to the next generation, and you want to see a roadmap for a better way forward, then you need to read A New American Tea Party: The Counterrevolution against Bailouts, Handouts, Reckless Spending, and More Taxes

What people are saying about
A New American Tea Party

"After the 2008 election, many believed America was inevitably lurching hard and permanently to the left. The grassroots revolt that is the tea party movement stopped the left's momentum and may have reversed America's trajectory. This book's inside story is the first account of this happy reversal of fortune."—Grover Norquist, President, Americans for Tax Reform

"When CNN's Anderson Cooper is calling you obscure sexual fetishes, then you've got to be doing something right. The tea party movement is the long awaited conservative counterrevolution. To paraphrase Abbie Hoffman, 'buy this book.' John O'Hara delivers the meaning behind this movement and what Americans can do next."—Andrew Breitbart, Publisher, Big Government, Big Hollywood, and Big Journalism

"Fifty years from now, historians will be reading O'Hara's book to understand one of the great pivot points in American politics."—Tucker Carlson, Editor, The Daily Caller

"A must-read, behind-the-scenes tour of the movement that has magnified the voices of millions of concerned Americans. John O'Hara effectively demonstrates how our Constitution and basic principles of freedom are under fire. More importantly, he equips citizens with the knowledge and encouragement necessary to win the battles for freedom still ahead of us. Get this book, get informed...then get busy!"—U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (SC), author of Saving Freedom

"John O'Hara helped spearhead a movement that is now redefining the American electorate. This inspiring read will further rouse a new generation of patriots not beholden to a political party, but to the rugged individualism and free-market philosophy on which this country was built."—Jonathan Hoenig, Capitalistpig, LLC and Fox News Contributor

"Informative and entertaining. The differences I have with the book might be resolved with O'Hara at the next tea party. See you there."—Gene Epstein, Barron's Economics Editor

"Captures an inside look at this incredibly important movement. Many left-wing talking heads say it was artificially created, but O'Hara shows how it was a spontaneous grassroots effort. For anyone interested in understanding the new dynamic of politics and how this movement will affect the upcoming election, this book is a must read."—Dick Armey, Chairman of FreedomWorks and former House Majority Leader

"Anyone looking for a cogent explanation of this year's most visible grassroots political movement will find this a clear-headed, though highly opinionated, insider's account." - Publisher's Weekly
