Just got a room in Germantown, MD. I’m told the last room at the Hilton near the Metro station was just booked in the last hour. That’s very encouraging.

Another great sign;

“Our ancestors fought for freedom, and so will we”

Side note, we went to Mt. Vernon today and G. Washington’s words should ring true for us all. He rallied his commanders by telling them, “this is our land and they shall not take it from us.”

Most folks will fight when they are pushed too far. I think many Americans will see this vote as an act of war on their freedoms. Not sure what type of response with occur. It appears civil disobedience isn't working with Democrats.

We came unarmed (this time)

But I think it's the real call to arms this time! Lock & load patriots. We're in for a great bloody battle! May God give us victory over socialism & islamism that is destroying our country!

They lived under that system in Poland. They tell me that after age 70, healthcare meant a bed in a hospital and a glass of water....

Just before communism fell in Poland, I asked my friend's Polish nanny why she was going to the dentist so often. "Oh, it's great here. You have, what's it called?, novocaine?"

Half of my family is in Poland. What you said is true. I'll never forget my visit there, just after the Wall fell. My cousin was driving a WWII era motorcycle (his primary means of transportation) that had been in continuous operation since WWII.

When I came home, I wanted to kiss the ground. By then, it was too late for me to thank my dad for having emigrated from Poland just after the war. He died four years before the Wall fell.

One thing my dad left me was a clear understanding of communism. I have plenty of communist relatives, even on my mother's English side. One of my English uncles is a former Labor union boss (and Marxist). He retired with 4 years sick pay, abandoned his wife, and left to sail around the world on his yacht with his mistress.

“the ones who listen to the poverty pimps like Sharpton and Jackson have no real concept or concern about the intrusion and loss of liberty of and by big government as long as it’s cool for them”
I think there is a certain segment of the population to whom the concept of liberty is virtually unimportant. They do not want to be independent, expect to be taken care of by the government, and voted for Obama because they envisioned he would free up money for them. They do not mind waiting in long lines or in hospitals. They call ambulances to take them to hospitals for head colds and charge it all to Medicaid. IT is almost pointless to try to convince liberals, particularly those who are in racial minorities to understand the evils of socialism. They have for too long been the recipients of government largesse and have no wish to curtail it.

"Eventually, a new GW1 will rise up and lead the way back from this darkness. "

From the little that I know about this conservative actor, he seems to have the proper "fire in the belly" along with a terrier personality.

Regardless of those nitwits in Washington, God is still in control.

It's not a comforting thought that what's happening right now is something that God is perfectly okay with.

I was reading the book The Russians by Hedrick Smith and he wrote on the subject of health care in the Soviet Union. He said the party nomenklatura received gold-plated care, while the rest of the country received meager care. Doctors were on-call day and night for Brezhnev and other elites.

If this atrocity is passed, this is exactly what we can expect.

I can't say up late FReeping tonight because tomorrow (Friday) we are heading down to Washington DC to join this rally on Saturday @ 12 noon at the Capitol.

PLEASE join us if you can... we've got to send one more LOUD message to Obama and the 'RATs: The American People DO NOT WANT ObamaCare!

Here's a related thread, and more information about Saturday's rally in Washington DC:

EMERGENCY March on DC this Saturday

Code Red Rally: 12 Noon Saturday Washington DC

With the critical nature of a looming Congressional decision, a broad coalition of Tea Party organizations and leadership is launching the final push before a possible vote by the House. These events are being coordinated across the US and are aimed at communicating the frustration of the people while demanding the termination of this health bill legislation. While the DNC and the administration continue to obfuscate and confuse, this coalition is focused on getting activists involved prior to Pelosi's maneuvering.

The following actions are planned for the next 72 hours:

· Calling campaigns to the House by constituents to vote no on the bill

· "Talk to Washington" healthcare town halls in Mississippi, Pennsylvania and other states

· Code Red rally in Washington, DC at 12 noon on Saturday at Upper Senate Park

· Nationwide "Virtual Vigil" on BlogTalk radio sponsored by DoctorsandPatients.org

· Candlelight vigil around the Capitol on Saturday night

He's not! He told us to hate evil as much as He does. He gave us dominion over the earth - it's our battle - we do what we know to do - our part, and He does His.
