UPDATE: Our interview with Lech Walesa is up -  Lech Walesa: ‘America Is Moving Toward Socialism’

Founding Bloggers was on hand today as Lech Walesa, former President of Poland, endorsed Republican gubernatorial candidate Adam Andrzejewski.

We were lucky enough to sit down with Andrzejewski and President Walesa for a video interview which we will post as soon as it is edited.

Until then, below are some of our photos from today’s events, which included a Tea Party in Federal Plaza:

    A giant of a man who stood up to the Commies from behind the Iron Curtain. God Bless you, Lech!

    Too cool! I liked Walesa’s quip that he wouldn’t have to visit the new Illinois governor in jail. Looking forward to your videos.

    I fully would have attended no matter how cold, but I had to work at 2:30 on Friday so I couldn’t make it. Going to check out the video now!

    I don’t get the idea behind having Lech Walesa – the leader of one of the biggest labor union – to campaign for the tea party candidate -the movement for small government. Isn’t that ideologically contradictory?
