History Occurs! The "Establishment Media" HIDES! (Live Thread VI)
8/08/08 | Sherri Reese

Posted on 08/08/2008 6:06:46 AM PDT by eeevil conservative

One Week STRONG!!!!

 

"I sat there(on the House Floor) side by side with the American People.." Congressman Duncan Hunter (35 minutes into show)...

There has never been a time in our history when this has occurred. The House is adjourned, but a demonstration from the House Memebers is taking place on the House Floor, and the American Folks are sitting in the empty seats, personally telling their stories to their Representatives, and watching speeches from the Floor in person. This is not a "Constituent Day" this is a full week of HISTORY!

Call to action for today folks-

CALL THE "establishment" that claims to be the leader of Free Speech in our country. Ask them to define news. Ask them if they understand what "news" actually is. Ask them if HISTORY is news. This event WILL be inclided in the history books, and it will also note that this was the beginning of the end for the "establishment media."

Video

Keep the calls and emails going!

Maybe top 25? Now I have two threads to refresh..this one and the Georgia fighting one. Plus the Call Congress Back.

In the meantime, the house is getting dirtier, and the kids are still hungry :)

There is a lot happening today, but this is important BECAUSE of what is happening. Russia has declared war on Georgia - will this impact oil prices? It certainly could.

'Gohmert told me, “If they stick in a moratorium to prevent us getting oil and gas from our outer continental shelf to help the American people…they put that in to a continuing resolution to keep the government going. I’m sorry -- I’ve got to keep the American people going who can’t afford these gas prices. I’m voting against it, no matter what bill they stick it in. If it’s to honor my mother, my mother would understand, rest her soul, I would vote against it. We have got to take this stand.”

This is from Babbin's article. The dims say they will fight against the ban expiring by adding it to the appropriation bills that still have not been passed.

Absolutely it will have an effect on the oil question. If this escalates even more, the LAST thing we do is touch our Strategic Reserve. This is an execellent example of why. And the Republicans can point out the Dems stupidity in demanding to use them.

Russian planes were downed and Russian tanks are on their way.

This might not get as much attention today.

Thanks! Though patience is stretched a little tight amongst my minions here. I might have to call Papa John’s just to fend them off.

Here’s a grin-producing tidbit if you haven’t seen it yet:

Nancy Pelosi Book Tour, cont. [Greg Pollowitz]

Go Florida!

CORAL GABLES, Fla. — Protesters gathered outside an appearance by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi in Coral Gables on Wednesday.

Pelosi signed copies of her new book “Know Your Power: A Message To America’s Daughters” at Temple Judea in Coral Gables.

Outside the temple, protesters echoed Republican demands that the speaker bring Congress back into session to vote on a new energy plan.

“If she would at least let it go to a vote, if it wins, it wins. If it loses, it loses, and I accept that,” said protester Pinchas Schachter. “But for someone to pull a tactic like that, that’s something right out of a communist country.

Pelosi’s office noted that a majority of Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives voted against 13 Democratic proposals to address energy supplies. Her office said drilling on protected land would not lower gas prices.

“Fighting in Georgia. Russian planes were downed and Russian tanks are on their way.

This might not get as much attention today.”

All the more reason FOR IT TO GET ATTENTION. Oil will go through the roof, if this ‘skirmish’ intensifies.

Couple that with the fact that Iran threatened to close the Straits of Hormuz again yesterday and you get an idea of how irresponsible it is for the Democrats and Obama to tap the Strategic Oil reserves!

I’m here as well.

This has far more to do with our lives than any furrball the remains of the Red Army want to get started.

We’re just getting the same silent treatment from the MSM the troops have had. Screw ‘em. They can go right down the same crapper as their traitorcrat buddies.

I am not questioning the value, penelopesire! I am observing that the US media are graduates of short attention span theater.
