On Saturday, the Federal Building in Los Angeles and the White House in Washington, DC will share a common bond: Each is a terminus for a nationwide effort to remind Americans of the bonds of faith, courage and freedom the country manifest the day after 9/11.

"We want to support the 9/12 Project and let our voices be heard, " says Marc Harris, organizer of the "912 West" event. "We want to keep the movement going and to keep the country based in freedom and capitalism."

The 912 West rally is from 3 to 5 p.m. at the Federal Building, 11000 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles. The agenda includes a variety of speakers, musicians and entertainers addressing patriotic themes, American values or government issues.

"This event is for people who are unable to attend the main event in Washington, DC," Harris writes on the posting at www.teapartypatriots.org . "912 West is a non-partisan event that (reflects our) beliefs in the Constitution, free markets, smaller government and fiscal responsibility."

More than a dozen Tea Party Patriots (TPP) groups from Southern California will participate in the 912 West rally to support those  Patriots nationwide, who will attend the DC event.

"No matter where you are on Sept. 12 " writes Jenny Beth Martin, a member of TPP's National Coordinator Team, "...we will be united as Americans and standing shoulder to shoulder with other Patriots in presence and spirit.

"We will remind America of the incredible gift our Founding Fathers gave to us," she adds. "As a united voice, we will stand up for the United States Constitution. We will be one voice demanding Congress restores fiscal responsiblity to our national budget. We will remind Congress, the President, and our fellow citizens what limited government and free markets can do."

As of Labor Day, the national Patriots' logistics list included: More than 180 buses transporting Patriots from Southern and Mid-Atlantic states; thousands of attendees representing all 50 states, plus local events in several states--there are nearly 20 posted in California alone.

The TPP effort does not include statistics from the principle organizing group, the 9/12 Project, which sprouted out of comments by Fox News Network host, Glenn Beck. (Beck will anchor coverage of 9/12 events on Fox from 1 to 3 p.m. EDT.)
