Bring your bill and meet us on the common. So far all we have found is Congressional clunkers need to be traded in. They know nothing and assume the people don't know that much.

Boy are they in for a rough ride.

what they called 'government-run health care'”

Is that anything like a procedure that opponents call partial-birth abortion?

With liberals, especially in the MOI, it's never about what they're trying to ram down our throats or the ideology of those trying to do the ramming.  It's always about the way opponents are "painting" things, or what they "call" them. Obama isn't a radical leftist; it's just that his opponents "paint" him as one.  

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck.....

Let's see...I'll cut it short...the government wants to pass a 1000-page law regulating health insurance and the entire health care industry.....but it's not going to be "government-run"???

These people have all stepped through the looking glass and are passing around the hookah.....

...Sebelieus and Specter  got caught in the headlights.

We found out today that the senators in our districts won't hold town-hall meetings and if you want an audience with them it'll cost $2K to attend a fund raiser.

Talk about for the people, by the people...

scum!

Sebelius is a disguisting woman. Not as bad as Claire McCaskell, but much in the same mold. Lying and relying on your gender to get you where you are...sums it up. Now I know that Cokie says since I am a  man that I am not very smart, but...if this is the women's best choices and smartest they have to show me up, well....not buying into it.

What exactly is an anti-reform force? Is that like the war protestors from 2003? What about la Raza protestors? Are they an anti-civil obedience force? What about Cindy Sheehan screaming at Bush on the outskirts of Camp David...an anti-progress-in-Iraq force?

I just love how it boils down to TEA partiers being against "reform."

But hey, at least CBS actually ran a story on it. They tried,

These demonstrators are no where near angry enough.  These knuckleheads in the government won't get the message until they're confronted with the angry mobs of the Hanoi Jane days.

That's all they understand.  

However, the Abbie Hoffmans had friends and sympathizers in high places (Hollywood, the press, the government, academia...) and we do not.  Actually, if conservatives do take to the streets (to protest vigorously but legally that is...with permits...and not getting too loud or rowdy...no alcohol of course...and total and complete respect for law, order and authority...just being plain nice...really) that would be the trigger they need to crush us.  That's what they are waiting for...that's why they keep pushing us.

Make no mistake-even a lot of these so called conservatives in government and in the press are not our friends.  They will go up to a certain line and will not cross it as they have too much to lose.  They will always look out for themselves first and foremost.  They know how to play the game.

The Bill O'Reillys, the Ann Coulters, the Sean Hannitys and the rest of them are talented media people.  They can take any position and defend it quite well.  That's the stock and trade of any good radio talk show host if you've ever paid attention.

Where's the passion for our Liberty, for our Republic?  Where's the sense of urgency?  Where's the understanding that these people in power aren't playing around with us?

Perhaps the talking heads and the blog pundits are in denial or just plain scared. 

The only one that comes even close to saying what needs to be said (for now anyways) is Glenn Beck.

One of the 34% who thinks George W. Bush was a great President. One of the 61% who wants to bring back the stock and pillory (yep...approval for Congress now at 39%...do you believe that!?).

Avoiding this kind of uproar is partly why Democrats wanted to pass health reform before the August recess.

YES, HOW DARE THESE PEOPLE PROTEST?!?!? ALL WE WANT TO DO IS PASS A BILL QUICKLY BEFORE IT GETS READ!!!

We can start RIGHT NOW - let's keep the heat on Congress and never let up until 2010 elections! 

Goodnight all ;-)

MOST OF THIS HAS ALREADY HAPPENED. What would you say if I gave you 11 reasons why the elections in 2010 will be the most important in the ENTIRE history of the United States? 

1.     What if I had told you in October 2008, before the last presidential election, that before Barack Obama's first 100 days in office, the federal government would be in control of both the mortgage and the banking industries? That 19 of America's largest banks would be forced to undergo stress tests by the federal government which would determine if they were insufficiently capitalized, so they must be supervised by the government? Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America." 

2.     What if I had told you that within Barack Obama's first 100 days in office the federal government would be the largest shareholder in the US Big-Three automakers: Ford, GM, and Chrysler? That the government would kick out the CEO's of these companies and appoint hand-picked executives with zero experience in the auto industry and that executive compensation would be determined, not by a Board of Directors, but by the government? Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America." 

3.     What if I had told you that Barack Obama would appoint 21 Czars, without Congressional approval, accountable only to him, not to the voters, who would have control over a wide range of US policy decisions.  That there would be a Stimulus Accountability Czar, an Urban Czar, a Compensation Czar, an Iran Czar, an Auto Industry Czar, a Cyber Security Czar, an Energy Czar, a Bank Bailout Czar, and more than a dozen other government bureaucrats with unchecked regulatory powers over US domestic and foreign policy. Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America." 

4.     What if I had told you that the federal deficit would be $915 billion in the first six months of the Obama presidency - with a projected annual deficit of $1.75 trillion - triple the $454.8 billion in 2008, for which the previous administration was highly criticized by Obama and his fellow Democrats. That Congress would pass Obama's $3.53 trillion federal budget for fiscal 2010. That the projected deficit over the next ten years would be greater than $10 trillion.                                     Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America." 

5.     What if I had told you that the Obama Justice Department would order FBI agents to read Miranda rights to high-value detainees captured on the battlefield and held at US military detention facilities in Afghanistan. That Obama would order the closing of the Guantanamo detention facility with no plan for the disposition of the 200-plus individuals held there. That several of the suspected terrorists at Guantanamo would be sent to live in freedom in Bermuda at the expense of the US government. That our returning US veterans would be labeled terrorists and put on a watch list. Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America." 

6.     What if I had told you that the federal government would seek powers to seize key companies whose failures could jeopardize the financial system. That a new regulatory agency would be proposed by Obama to control loans, ***********s, mortgage-backed securities, and other financial products offered to the public. Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America." 

7.     What if I had told you that Obama would travel to the Middle East, bow before the Saudi king, and repeatedly apologize for America's past actions. That he would travel to Latin America where he would warmly greet Venezuela's strongman Hugo Chavez and sit passively in the audience while Nicaraguan Marxist thug Daniel Ortega charged America with terrorist aggression in Central America.  Would you have said, "C'mon, that will never happen in America."

8.     Okay, now what if I were to tell you that Obama wants to dismantle conservative talk radio through the imposition of a new "Fairness Doctrine."  That he wants to curtail the First Amendment rights of those who may disagree with his policies via internet blogs, cable news networks, or advocacy ads. That most major network television and most newspapers will only sing his phrases like state-run media in communist countries? Would you say, "C'mon, that will never happen in America." 

9.     What if I were to tell you that the Obama Justice Department is doing everything it can to limit your Second Amendment rights to keep and bear arms. That the federal government wants to reinstate the so-called assault weapons ban which would prohibit the sale of any type of firearm that requires the shooter to pull the trigger every time a round is fired. That Obama's Attorney General wants to eliminate the sale of virtually all handguns and ammunition, which most citizens choose for self-defense. Would you say, "C'mon, that will never happen in America." 

10.What if I were to tell you that the Obama plan is to eliminate states rights guaranteed by the Tenth Amendment and give the federal government sweeping new powers over policies currently under the province of local and state governments and voted on by the people.  That Obama plans to control the schools, energy production, the environment, healthcare, and the wealth of every US citizen.  Would you say, "C'mon, that will never happen in America." 

11.What if I were to tell you that the president, the courts, and the federal government have ignored the US Constitution and have seized powers which the founders of our country fought to restrict.  That our last presidential election may have been our last truly free election for some time to come. That our next presidential election may look similar to the one recently held in Iran. (And may be under the review of A.C.O.R.N.) I know, I know what you will say. That will never happen in America! 

If we don't do everything in our power to stop this madness in 2010, may God have mercy on our souls. Please pass this on to every freedom-loving American you know. Thank you.

If the Democrat law makers really believe the astroturf stories they should have the police remove these people.  And they should deliver a scolding lecture to them as the police drag them out.

                      First of all, the people aren't out there because Freedom Works told us to. We are out there because the federal govt. is trying to push these bill down our throats. We know  the govt. was trying to pass it before recess. They figured we wouldn't be able to anything about it. They figured wrong. The people wanted answers & they get the run around. Now we want these idiots out of office. Why should we let a bunch of people that think they are royalty pass any bill if they can't even stay on a budget? They got us into this mess and we will get us out. Say goodby to these buffoons and put someone with a brain in office.                      Patriot & Proud!
