I appreciate the efforts of the Tea Party folks. I'm a member of a Tea Party in my area. But, it looks like this is going to be another one of those gigs where you stand there all day listening to one speaker after another.

If we're gonna "Kill the Bill", we're going to have to be more radical than that. Like about a million people marching on Washington and NOT stopping at the Mall but storming into the House and Senate buildings and and demand that our Congressman / Senator look us in the eye and tell us WHY he or she is going to vote for this Socialistic, piece of crap.

[no dems]

I set myself in agreement with your prayer in Jesus’ Name.

[444Flyer]

A BIG BIG AMEN!

[AmericanInTokyo]

Like I said, EVERY PERSON WHO CAN NOT GO TO D.C. DUE TO JOB, OR FINANCES, MUST GO DIRECTLY TO THE DISTRICT OFFICE OF THEIR ELECTED FEDERAL REPRESENTATIVES AND MAKE THEIR WISHES KNOWN, IN PERSON, LOUDLY, FLORIDA-CHAD STYLE IF NECESSARY. The sleeping giant has been awoken.

...stand there all day listening to one speaker after another

Obviously you have no idea what is planned for this week in DC

I don't have time to bring you up to speed, but suggest you do so if you wish to contribute comments that show some knowledge of the situation

[Syncro]

Yes they should and yes it has awakened and thanks for the strong call to activizm!

[no dems]

I made a trip to Washington, once, and that’s all it was; listening to speeches all day.

If I’ve “pegged” this one incorrectly, my apologies. I HOPE YOU GUYS REALLY DO GET SOMETHING ACCOMPLISHED.

Saturday & Sunday, March 20th & 21st: Town Halls for March Madness! In August we had some amazing town halls! They really made people and lawmakers stop and think about this health care legislation. Let's do it again! Host a town hall in your community and invite your Senator and Congressman.  More details on this next step will be available on American Grassroots Coalition within the next day or two.  Thanks for your patience.

The rally on Tue is supposed to be short so the people can go to the DC offices of their reps and RATTLE THEIR CAGES!

[American Constitutionalist]

The peasants ( THE PEOPLE ) will not worship the moon deity, the moon god that the “ elite “ want to put upon on us with their mind control.... for we will only worship the one and true GOD, the GOD of ISRAEL ! Jesus Christ our LORD !

[American Constitutionalist]

" It doesn’t matter what you think or want. "

That's because the " elite " think that we can't figure it out, or have the brain capacity of knowledge....
They have mind controlled us to be their slaves and think that we are not intelligent.

But, Jesus Christ said, that the truth shall set you free for Jesus Christ IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE , no man can come to the father but by him.

REMINDER ABOUT TUESDAY

Weather to be warm and sunny.

[Apple Pan Dowdy]

Can someone point me to where to go to see what is planned locally (Atlanta area) for March 16th. Thanks.

[Evil Slayer]

I will be praying. I know this doesn't sound like much to some but it is all I can do. I believe in the power of prayer and if each and everyone in this country asked God to spare us of the evil that is about to descend upon us, HE will hear us and intervene.

[jester221]

My letter to Senators Schumer, Gillibrand,and Congressman Bishop and my local papers. Feel free to use or enhance:

The currently pending “Health Care” legislation would, if enacted, add yet another level of unsustainable debt that we as taxpayers simply cannot afford while the Nation suffers through a deep economic recession. The insanity that seems to have gripped the Democratic party’s leadership would have us create and layer on new entitlement programs while others like Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security are virtually bankrupt, or soon will be. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts has already gone down this same road and it is now saddled with the highest insurance premiums in the country; declining new business startups; overcrowded waiting rooms and overworked primary-care physicians. You will never hear these “inconvenient truths” from the democrats, yet this is their similar “prescription” taken to a national level.

The bitterly partisan spectacle orchestrated by Obama, Pelosi and Reid over the past year has been particularly offensive. Never in my adult life have I witnessed more blatant, in your face corruption on full public display; corruption that almost seems to be purposefully and cynically taunting the American people as it is paraded out on a nearly daily basis. The Louisiana Purchase; the Cornhusker Kickback; Federal Judgeships to relatives of wavering Congressmen; special “Cadillac” plan tax exemptions for Unions; tax cheats in charge of the Treasury; tax cheats in charge of the House Ways and Means Committee; the Wall Street bailouts...the list, unfortunately, goes on and on and on.

Largely hidden from the sanitizing light of day and heavily influenced by special interest groups and sweetheart deals, the health care reform package is estimated to cost nearly one trillion dollars over the next decade. Of course, we all know how accurate CBO projections can be...can anyone honestly think of one Federal entitlement program that has stayed within budget and never blew far past its original cost estimates? In 1967, for example, the House Ways and Means Committee predicted that the new Medicare program, launched the previous year, would cost about $12 billion in 1990. Actual Medicare spending in 1990 was $110 billion—off by nearly a factor of 10. Only in the mind of a liberal democrat can the forces of supply and demand be magically suspended; where spiking a sharp increase in demand for medical care (i.e., 30 million or so new enrollees) will somehow lead to lower health care costs AND increased quality to boot, everything else being equal.

Indeed, if the current Obamacare proposal is so wonderful - then why does Congress exempt itself from its nefarious clutches? Perhaps this is all the American people really need to know about the current “reform” effort that the Democrats are trying to shove down our throats in an unprecedented power grab by the Federal government. In point of fact, it represents an unconstitutional attempt to abridge our individual rights, as American Citizens, of free choice and self-determination. It will cripple entrepreneurism and small business, the engine that creates virtually all new jobs in the United States, and seriously erode the quality of life and living standards for future generations to come as we condemn our nation to perpetual economic servitude to the Chicoms.

I implore all elected officials to do the honorable, courageous and righteous thing and change course. Work to stop this ill-conceived madness and start over. There are many common sense alternative measures, like tort reform to reduce the costs of defensive medicine; making insurance portable across State lines to increase competition; pre-tax health savings accounts, etc, that would go a long way towards driving down health care costs. One would have thought the lessons of Virginia, New Jersey and Massachusetts were clear: the American people are waking up. The chants of “hope” and “change” have lost their thrill and luster; their real meanings exposed. The middle class, the very backbone of this great nation, faces the prospect of increasingly confiscatory taxation from all levels of government for even the most basic of services. We are at the breaking point, and simply can take no more.

[whatshotandwhatsnot]

Then why waste your time posting here? Seriously, if you have no faith in the patriots of this land I don’t understand why you’d even bother giving FR a hit.

[DollyCali]

Looks good

THE ONE is in Strongsville (NE Ohio) today.

I will join the others ( no doubt numbered as dozens by MSM) today to protest his “work” in our country with sign, flag, vocalization & of course a busy camera

[trooprally]

Go get ‘em for us down here.

[seekthetruth]

Big ping to DC Area Freepers!
