     Americans who are against some of the expensive programs pushed by the Obama administration, are planning to have their say Saturday.
     A Chattanooga teacher was at Ross's Landing today promoting the event set for Saturday at noon.
     Darrell Hoover and two other organizers handed out fliers urging voters to organize and fight back.
     Hoover points-out the Hamilton county Take back America Rally is not the same one that held a rally at the same place on April 15th.
     That one, the Tax Tea Party,  drew an estimated 2 thousand people.
     Hoover's program will include speakers like former Dade county executive Ben Brandon, and school board member Rhonda Thurman.

Darrell Hoover\Take Back America Rally:

"I just can't sit by idly and watch everything..this is the kind of thing..I'm not usually a protestor..but this is the kind of thing that makes you want to protest. I'm passionate about it. 

     Hoover says cap and trade, the health insurance bill and auto take-over are the things that turned him into a protestor.
     The Tax Tea Party people will hold a picnic...but not a rally tomorrow at Coolidge park.

     There will also be a Tea Party meeting in Athens on the fourth.
     Organizers are meeting at the Athens Regional Park pavilion on Saturday.
     They will be there from ten in the morning til noon.
     Concerned citizens will speak their minds about the national debt.. Health care.. Emissions trading and taxes.
