Friend --
This is the last thing I wanted to talk about before Labor Day weekend, but you gotta hear this:
Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin just joined the "Defund Obamacare" movement -- a group of people, including 80 members of Congress, who are willing to sabotage the economy because they don't like Obamacare.
This is the kind of reckless nonsense President Obama is up against in trying to pass a smart budget that actually grows the economy for the middle class.
OFA is here to fight back -- because when it comes down to it, I doubt the American people are going to like hearing that people are threatening to shut down the government instead of passing a budget.
For the sake of our national sanity, we're asking people to stand up and be a voice of reason -- add your name to join the fight against this reckless plan.
Congress has a budget deadline of September 30th.
All next month, OFA is going to push Congress to consider President Obama's plan for the country -- one that focuses on creating jobs and growing the economy, instead of scoring political points.
We'll be calling out the radical members of Congress for their recklessness -- and asking John Boehner to be a leader and stand up to his colleagues.
Because if our representatives don't know that there's a price to pay for this kind of nonsense, it's not ever going to stop.
Thanks,
Jon Carson, Executive Director, Organizing for Action
John Boehner hasn't been a leader in several years. And he hasn't stood up in several weeks. He's on vaca.

Obamacare is the senseless nonsense.
Everything about it is nonsense.
Yeah... conservatives plan to fund EVERYTHING EXCEPT Obamacare (a law even its greatest supports say is deeply flawed) and the Democrats will fund NOTHING WITHOUT Obamacare... and we’re the ones shutting down the government.
Whatever.
I’m hoping something or someone will be able to stop this runaway train........
Hannity needs to put her on to discuss it and she needs to call Rush. And she should make contact with her friends on Capitol Hill (such as McVain) and tell them what she thinks.
Translation: Gov. Sarah Palin is the shadow president and scares us spitless.
“”OFA is going to push Congress to consider President Obama’s plan for the country — one that focuses on creating jobs and growing the economy, instead of scoring political points.””
I think OFA has this backward. His plan for the country? They would never accept that his TRUE PLAN for the country is to destroy it.
Their pushing should be on the president not on Congress. THEIR president has taken his eye off the “focus on creating jobs and growing the economy” and has been more intent on scoring political points. Job creation creeps into his conversation only occasionally.
Don’t they get it yet? Guess not!
Yep, I saw this earlier. Don’t remember the title or who posted it, because I’m too busy with trying to help wrap up the FReepathon.
She lives in their heads rent free and I guess they think she’s still the best fund raising vehicle they have have at their ready.
Idiots.
Bump!
What this now pitiful nation needs is for a surprise (no shit!) attack against Syria. It is in our national interest to lob cruise missiles into this evil nation.
Never mind that the videos of the horrendous poison gas attacks against little children have been hatched by the Muslim Brotherhood.
why can’t the American people see that their president needs to act in order to save face? This is a true wartime leader against the forces of darkness. The faded images of George S. Patten and Douglas MacArthur pale in comparison to this brave president we’re so fortunate to have.
BUMP :)
