While I love Bachmann’s spunk and her conservative values, I have to look at this from the perspective of “what if somone on the left did this?”.
This would come off to many as a bit over the top. I’m just hoping that conservatives overplay their hand now. I think the message is out and everyone is aware that we’re ready to make a comeback.
I realize that you have to keep the fight up, but I think we can accomplish more by finding and getting behind conservative candidates that can win. This strikes me as an act of desperation...and it very well might be. I just think that yesterday’s results will get us further than going around the Capitol and showing up Congress-critters.
What the libs do when there is a conservative in the White House is no different, and they do it daily. So much so that it gets lost in all their noise.
Overwhelming force is the best in most cases.
May I suggest you take some time to research a few of the antics and statements from liberal and Marxist Democrats?
The Republican party has had far too many General McCellans countering the left. We could use a few General Grants.
I disagree respectfully.
I think you do both.
And I think the willingness of the peeps to go to D.C. is a very, very important development.
So by using the third person, you admit that you are not a conservative?
Freudian slip, or...?
Cheers!
You don’t have to go so butt out!
You are wrong. We must keep the momentum up and strike now while the scent of victory still lingers in the air. The blue dogs and other Dems fearful of being reelected must understand that we will not relent or stand down or rest on our laurels. Pelosi wants to put ObamaCare up for a vote on Friday. We must let them know that the people are still angry and watching and will hold them accountable. 912 was the opening salvo, not a one shot affair.
“This would come off to many as a bit over the top. Im just hoping that conservatives overplay their hand now.”
Come again?
The left can't put out a call to people who work, who then drop everything to drive to DC to protest. The left can't afford to hire that kind of a crowd, and their followers sure don't show up for free.

I appreciate your sense of decorum and can't say you're wrong. What I can say is that Obama and congressional Democrats have whipped up hatred this year and directed it at Wall Street, Las Vegas, corporate aviation, Tea Party and townhall attendees, talk radio, FOX News, doctors, health insurers, the CIA, and “the wealthy” just to name a few. Obama told a group of bankers that he was the only thing that stood between them and “the pitchforks” of the angry mob.
We're currently in a war to save our nation. To save our liberty and all that we know to be right.
Bachmann’s action today... inviting thousands of Americans to Washington to meet with their House Members in the “People's House” and tell them what they feel about this destructive piece of legislation, follows the most basic tenant of sound strategic engagement - “bring the fight to the enemy”.
Bachmann, as many like her that are willing to stand up to these Marxist leftist who have taken over our government, is just one more American hero.
An American hero who will be embraced favorably by history as the story is told someday about how the United States of America was saved and brought back from the brink of Marxist/Socialist/Leftists/Progressive totalitarianism and destruction at the hands of the political puppets (Obama, Reid, Pelosi, Frank, Waxman, Schumer, et. al.) of the great manipulators like George Soros, SEIU, ACORN,, etc., etc., etc....
God's speed to all of today's American heroes, fighting the good fight, including Michelle Bachmann.
The left IS is doing it. Who do you think sends in union goons to disrupt public meetings, who sends quasi military black goons to intimidate voters in precints, who changes locks on conference room doors to keep out duly elected representatives while formulating a plot to subvert the constuitution etc etc etc.
Don't be naive. Some of us have LIVED through Communist tactics and we know how they operate and we alaso know how to fight back and the ballot is not the only means available.
Fight fire with a bigger fire!!!
