TEA PARTY EXPRESS CONDEMNS HEALTHCARE VOTE BY CONGRESS

"Shame On Them" Says Tea Party Leaders

 

"We're Going to Vote Them Out of Office in 2010"

 

(ON THE ROAD FROM LAFAYETTE, LA)  -- The leadership of the Tea Party Express (website: http://www.TeaPartyExpress.org) tonight denounced the vote by the House of Representatives (220-215) to pass a healthcare bill that includes a government-run component.

 

"Shame on them!  Congress chose once again to defy the will of the people who have spoken out at tea parties and town halls against this big government plan, because the politicians cared more about growing the size, power and control of government than what the people wanted," said Mark Williams, Co-Chair of the Tea Party Express.

 

"The politicians forget that the Constitution begins with the words,  'We The People,' not 'We the Government.'  The people have made it clear they did not want this quasi-socialistic plan, and since they haven't gotten the message then in 2010 we're going to be handing out pink slips to these politicians.  Enjoy your final days in office, and start searching the want-ads for a new job, because we're going to vote you out of office," said Deborah Johns, Co-Chair of the Tea Party Express.

 

The Tea Party Express is currently conducting a national cross-country tour holding tea party rallies in 40-cities across the country to defeat the efforts to impose a government-run healthcare plan and other related issues.

 

On Sunday the Tea Party Express will hold rallies in Baton Rouge, LA and Jackson, MS, and will continue through the southeast.  On Tuesday, November 10th the Tea Party Express will hold a giant rally in Beaufort, SC headlined by Congressman Joe Wilson.

[Syncro]

Last night Congress betrayed us.  Not only did the House of Representatives ignore our calls, emails, tea parties and town halls, but they did so in the process of pushing through the Pelosi-Obama socialistic, Big-Government healthcare fraud.

And friends, this is why we are on the road right now with the "Tea Party Express: Countdown to Judgment Day."  Our whole point has been to send the message that if Congress is going to defy "We the People" and defy the constitutional principles of what our government should do - and what it should NOT do - then "We the People" are going to vote these politicians out of office and take our country back.

So here's the deal - we've got 5 days left of this current "Tea Party Express" tour and we need to grow our crowds, and turn up the heat.  We've now got to stop the Senate from moving forward on the Obama-Pelosi bill.

Here's the update on where our grand finale stretch of rallies (including one featuring Congressman Joe Wilson).  Please do what you can to come out and join us for one of these events - here's our schedule: http://www.teapartyexpress.org/tour-schedule-2/

Great. But shouldn't we drag them out of office now?

Go Tea Party Expressers. You might just be our only earthly hope.

Crowds Turn Out To Protest Healthcare Vote

Rallies to Continue Today and Next 4 Days

 

 

(ON THE ROAD FROM BATON ROUGE, LA)  -- Thousands of people are turning out at rallies to protest last night's House vote for government-run healthcare.

 

The Tea Party Express (website: http://www.TeaPartyExpress.org) has seen an outpouring of support since the vote, and fired up crowds are turning out to denounce the actions by Congress in the middle of the night - while a nation was still grieving the loss of life from the recent mass shootings at Ft. Hood, TX and Orlando, FL.

Godspeed.

Thanks invisible hand, we are doing all we can. I think it will be effective. Heck, it already is!

Someone gave us some bookmarks with the statement "Our Founding Fathers would have done something by now."

Unfortunately we can't "drag" them out of office, but the millions of people that won't let the leftists boil them slowly like frogs will get them out IMO.

LIConFem, nice try.

One issue individuals aren't effective usually.

If you want to only concentrate on defunding the Fed (a good idea) start a political PAC, raise some money, and do something effective. Set up a "Defund The Fed" tour.

The last Tea Party Exress helped bring 1.5 million peopld to DC to let our government know we ain't gonna take it anymore.

Of course Bill O'Reilly and the MSM said about 75,000 were there.

Is that where you get your "inaffectual bunch" comment from?

Widen your view and get out and do something!

[AmericanSphinx71]

The tea parties have failed. We are still stuck with the Communist agenda. No pint in even having a team party now. Cap and Tx and 0bama care are law. America is a hoplessly left country. The Conservative movement is defeated and dead.

Congrats to the leftist majority in this country. You wanted the hip and cool black President, you got him. You wanted cap and tax, you got it. You wanted government run business, you got it. You wanted 0bamacare, you got it.

Me, I am about to check out. I’d rather die than live under tyrany and Communist rule. Hopefully where ever I end up I get to watch all you the voted for this President and this congress suffer at their hands for a very long time.

So long America.

[Seditious2U]

Voting them out after the fact won’t change the course. It might delay some of the more egregious aspects of this debacle, but it won’t alter the destination. I hope the Senate will wake up, but I doubt it.

It’s sad really. This nation has long forgotten the role of government as defined by the founding fathers and outlined in the federalist papers, which was the key to our success. We have become a bunch of wimpy, self-entitled whiners, eager to parrot the pseudo-compassionate, bleeding heart pablum that’s been force-fed since birth. The upcoming generation is illiterate and blind to the notions of integrity and self-reliance. I never, ever thought I would see this day 30 years ago. This false pride is going to be washed into the sewer with the rest of this once great nation if people don’t wake up and stand up for the ideals which once raised this country above all others.

Common sense ain’t so common anymore.

[Syncro]

Your whole post is hypocritical and anti American

"Me, I am about to check out. I’d rather die than live under tyrany(sic) and Communist rule."

So you are going to quit.

That's ok, most of the people in this country were afraid to confront King George and wanted to give up.

A few Patriots fought for them to be free.

If you stick around, we will fight for your freedom too.

Then you can come out of hiding and live in our Constitutional Republic.

America won't die. The will have to pry freedom from our cold dead hands.

Ain't gonna happen.

Thanks for letting the world know where you stand.

[Syncro]

... if people don’t wake up and stand up for the ideals which once raised this country above all others.

Where you been hiding? That is EXACTLY what is happening. Join in.

[mojitojoe]

I am about to check out.

[mojitojoe]

I hear you Syncro, but nothing seems to be working. They fight with cannons, we fight with tea parties. It think it’s time we moved outside our comfort zone and try some stronger tactics. We must starve the beast, go Galt, and I mean really go Galt. STARVE THEM!

[MNJohnnie]

Defund the Fed. You have the power. USE IT!

And just how do we do that?

[AmericanSphinx71]

“Your whole post is hypocritical and anti American”

I disagree. I’ll admit it’s defeatist, but not hypocritical. Maybe it’s anti-America....anti CURRENT America. The America that is now a Coummunist country

“If you stick around, we will fight for your freedom too.”

We’ve tried fighting. We written our congress people. We’ve gone to tea parties. We’ve mached on Washington. They still passed everything we opposed. They either don’t care or their internal polling shows a majority of America wants these laws. Let’s face it, 0bama is still highly popular with a majority of Americans. He still enjoys approval ratings well above 50% in most polls and personal favorable ratins near 70%. I’ve just come to believe that America has just taken a hard shift left, that most people want all these things. They want to be cared for by their government. Maybe they don’t realize what it means to be wards of the state, but they are about to find out how miserable it is. By the time they do find out, it’s to late. The State controls everything. There is no going back.

If I’m wrong, then offer me some evidence that I am wrong. Give me some hope we can win. We said we’d stop the Bush/Paulson bailout. It didn’t happen. We said we’d stop the 0bama stimulus, it didn’t happen. We’d said we’d stop Cap and Tax. It didn’t happen. We’d said we’d stop 0bama/Pelosi Care. It didn’t happen. We have absolutely nothing to show for our efforts.

I’m tired. I’m beat. I’m run down. I’m tired of fighting the good fight when there is no hope of victory.

Sorry. Call me defeatist. Call me anti-American. Call me whatever you like. I’m done with this crap. I hate these people in charge, I hate everyone that voted for them and I hate everyone that supports them. May they all rot in the hell that is soon to be USSA, or 0bama Nation or whatever the new name of this country will be.

[reasonisfaith]

I’ll say it again—it’s not too late till you hear the sound of the the labor camp gates clanging shut.

[Syncro]

Whatever you can think of to do, do it.

I'm doing this, and think it is doing some real good.

They will NOT take this country from us.

Constitutionally we can remove them. It clearly states that what they are doing can be stopped by changing the government.

Revolution is happening right now, and in their mistaken ego driven actions they will eventually cross the final line and be dealt with when they get in our faces with their final surge of oppression.

I've seen thousands (ok millions) of people that are ready to not sit on the sidelines anymore.

[LIConFem]

You already know the answer to that.

The question is, do you possess the courage of your convictins?

[MNJohnnie]

Because you lose at the ballot box, does not mean you get to resort to bullets.

We are a nation of law. This may become an issue of bullets but that time is not yet.

[LIConFem]

Yeah, we are a nation of laws, but not a nation of sheep. We have a right AND responsibilily to stand up for our Constitution and the Bill of Rights. To refuse to do is is cowardice, plain and simple.

[Syncro]

Ok, I was wrong. Your statement, " I’d rather die than live under tyrany(sic) and Communist rule." was defeatist not hypocritical.

Sorry to see you just lay down and die, we're gonna fight.

Just don't get in the way.

[AmericanSphinx71]

“Sorry to see you just lay down and die, we’re gonna fight.”

Good luck. Not sure waht you are going to fight for now. Everything we tried to stop has passed.

[Syncro]

I must have missed the notice that the Senate has passed it too.

I'm still gonna fight.

They will have pry MY country from my cold dead hands.

[Always Independent]

The fight is not over. I think this thing will get challenged tied up for years and defeated in the courts.

[Syncro]

Thanks for chiming in with a positive note.

And for being a fighter!

[AmericanSphinx71]

“I must have missed the notice that the Senate has passed it too.”

With 60 Liberal majority in the Senate (plus several Liberal Republicans), it will paas easily in the Senate. So will Cap and Tax.

[Syncro]

There are no Sphinx's in America, much less 71 of them!

Plus they have no nose for politics

: > )

[Seditious2U]

I’ve been reading here for years, but finally joined. As I am sure you are aware, talk is cheap, but a useful tool. Believe me, I am greatly heartened by those I see posting here, and taking it to the streets. What is disheartening is to know that right now if we acted together this could be stopped immediately, but that fear stands in the way. Sadly, I count myself among those who are fearful as well. I feel ambivalent regarding my obligations to my children. I feel obligated to work within the current system, as it stands to protect them.

So, a slower course must be taken. That said, there is strength in numbers, and more are awakening and joining the fight each day. Not to mention emboldening those who already awakened. With each cataclysmic event, the pace is quickening, but on both sides. It is difficult to remove deeply embedded notions of what is portrayed as reality, despite documentation which is readily available showing that things are not as they appear. In the search for truth, I like to stick to the facts and reserve formulating any opinions which might cause me to become myopic and miss the overall truth.

I don’t like what I see.

I thank God for the Christmas present of a shortwave radio when I was 14. It opened me to critically think about the world around me beyond its portrayal in the media.

[Always Independent]

Well my thinking is that people of wealth that do not need insurance and there are many, shouldn’t be shaken down by the gov’t to purshcase something they have the means to take care of themselves. And to tell families that they have to have a certain amount of coverage also smells to me. In court they could argue that insurance cures nothing and offers no guaranty of life.

[Syncro]

Thanks for your post

Very rational and well spoken.

The sleeping Giant has awakened.

At one of out Tea Party events on this TPXII tour, one speaker mentioned that fact.

Then he thumped his chest a couple of times and said, this it the heart beat

BOOM BOOM

BOOM BOOM

BOOM BOOM

[Seditious2U]

I will be attending and adding my support to all public protests. I currently have the ability and believe in the importance of making a show. The way I see it, we have two visible enemies. One are the politicians who are selling this country down the road. The other is the media who disseminate the lies.

But there are also two invisible enemies. One is the ignorance caused by the lies. Those who oppose us aren’t our enemies, it is the lies which motivate their actions. Their intentions aren’t evil, the lies corrupt.

The other enemy is unknown to me, and that is those who are controlling and manipulating events to further their agenda.

I believe this site is one of many which are important in combating the ignorance. I hope Glenn Beck is having a genuine epiphany. He is useful, but I still don’t trust him and am fearful he’ll gather many only to lead them down the wrong path when he is called upon to pay. A judas goat.

These are certainly interesting times.

[mojitojoe]

I’m doing this, and think it is doing some real good.

They will NOT take this country from us.

Tax revolt. It’s illegal too. I think many are silently doing it already, but to organize one will get you a visit from the Feds. Of course if millions did it at once, the government would be powerless to do anything about it and it would bring them to their knees in a month.

Declaration of Independance : “That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

[Syncro]

I think the tea parties are good. I just don’t know that they are really stopping this freight train of Communism in DC.

No, but it is not just the teaparties.

There are a lot more orgs and individuals working towards the same goal.

The Tea Parties, and the Tea Party Express II are only a part of the equation.

The left is exposing it's self to the point that many more are catching on to them by the hour.

[mojitojoe]

Welcome to Free republic.

[Syncro]

Good quote from that important document.

Like I mentioned a few times in the last few days on FR, someone gave a bunch of bookmarks with the words "Our Founding Fathers Would Have Done Something By Now"

[OwenKellogg]

> I'm doing this, and think it is doing some real good. <

Thank you, Syncro, and keep it up. You are and have been part of the vanguard. I'm greatful and I hope we cross paths again.

[ohiogrammy]

When did Cap and Trade pass? Did I miss something? Help!

[ilgipper]

If I’m wrong, then offer me some evidence that I am wrong. Give me some hope we can win. We said we’d stop the Bush/Paulson bailout. It didn’t happen. We said we’d stop the 0bama stimulus, it didn’t happen. We’d said we’d stop Cap and Tax. It didn’t happen. We’d said we’d stop 0bama/Pelosi Care. It didn’t happen. We have absolutely nothing to show for our efforts.

This is far from over. This bill passed the House by a 2 member margin. That is not a good sign in the Senate. A good chunk of the 'blue dogs' were able to so their no vote to give them cover next year. That tells you how unpopular this is. Our activism is reflected in the VA and NJ votes last week, and also in the NY-23 where 46% voted for a 3rd party conservative candidate.

Fact is, the Democrat socialists were given a very large majority and can pretty much do what they want right now, and the hard left has been waiting for many decades to push through socialized health care. They may damn well push it across the finish line despite the majority of the American people. Do not think this is widely wanted. They are using the power they have to push it through, and with the narrowest of margins. Neither Cap and Tax nor ObamaCare are law yet. Both have to get through a Senate, and the Senate is designed to slow crap like this down. We'll see. I would not bet against Obamacare passing, but I am not ready to predict it. I know the left is going to push like hell and bend all the rules to get it, so we have to work very hard to prevent it. It is time to double our efforts and kill the bill.

[Syncro]

Oh, that’s just some spew from an agitator on this thread

It hasn’t passed, but some that post here do so to discourage us from persuing the salvation of our Constitutional Republic.

[snarkybob]

“They either don’t care or their internal polling shows a majority of America wants these laws. Let’s face it, 0bama is still highly popular with a majority of Americans.”

My fear is that you’re correct. Sorry to say but I think the majority of the people do want cradle to grave nannyism. I guess most of the younger generation have been weaned on it anyway so it’s no big deal for them. It’s the older folks who remember real freedom. I’m not sure what will happen next probably just more socialism until we resemble the EU.
