God bless our House Republicans!! Blackberries confiscated to block communications!!
vanity

Posted on 09/27/2008 2:10:05 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

God bless you guys, we need you. You're our last great hope before the Democrats and RINOs push us all in and plunge us into full blown socialism.

Hang tough!!

By the way, just heard on FOX News something about the committees working on this bailout bill just had their Blackberries confiscated so they can't communicate with the outside world. I pray I misheard that.

If they tried to take my personal property there would be violence. Who can order such a thing?

I think you are absolutely right! I wish I was in DC. We did that here in Nashville a few years back. They did the exact same thing. They were trying to sneak in a state income tax and they locked themselves in the capital building late at night but the people rose up. We drove around the building blowing horns and making a horrible racket. People had signs and were yelling and even pounding on the locked door. The media was there and it was being made very public. In the end they backed down and voted it down.

I fear it is to late.

The poll numbers might not reflect reality. There are a lot of people very upset, but face it, there are a lot on FR that say if this bail out doesn’t happen, it is Lord of the Flies in every city by the end of the year.

As for the truth? Who knows. But I suspect that we have a gun to our heads, and the only question is how many will go down.

They are counting on violence! It makes “emergency laws” that much more easier!

just saw a blurb on Fox News saying that the Dems are accusing the Reps of grandstanding “especially McCain”. From that blurb I am guessing he is siding w/ the Rep House members. I could be wrong though.

I bet you're right. He was instrumental in having the House Republicans included in the primary discussions, and if the dems are squealing now and pointing at him in particular, then their socialist plans are getting stomped on. Excellent.

Our founders knew that the right to own property was sacrosanct,...just like the right to life, liberty, and pursuiing happiness. At what point does one act....when the officers of the law are lawless.

I too fear the doomsday scenarios, and I don’t know the probabilities. But after much research and discussion, I am now convinced that the Paulson/Dodd plan is a travesty. Some hybrid of Cantor and Paulson (i.e., mix of insurance and very, very limited purchase of mortgage securities only, with no ownership of private institutions) might pass the smell test. But between what’s on the table now and economic collapse, I take collapse.

You ain't seen nothing.

If Obama wins there will be a lot more than Blackberries confiscated, starting with your guns, SUV’s and bibles.

The Dumbocrats have finally shown their true colors during
this bailout crisis. I have thought all along that their
wrongheaded policies caused the crisis in the first place.

The R’s need to stand together and hang tough and not cave
to these crazies! They need to name the names of those who
confiscated their Blackberries....and they need to be
censured!

Right out of the Chicago Machine handbook .... and
Saul Aslinsky’s “Rules for Radicals.”

Capone, Alinsky, Obama = all Chicagoans .. all throwing
away any semblance of ethics or morality to get their way.

It’s the Chicago Way.

Here’s praying ... really praying he’s been rotting in there enough to tell the WHOLE truth about Snowbama.

Have you realized yet that the Wall Street meltdown was a planned “financial” COUP brought about by the left-most (Dean/Pelosi/Frank/Soros) wing of the Democrat party and executed OVER YEARS and perfectly TIMED to begin at exactly this PARTICULAR TIME near the anniversary of 9/11
to bring this country to its knees WITH the Supreme Court the only branch of the federal government BARELY in POLITICALLY CONSERVATIVE hands JUST AS Obama and his minions take the reins amidst RACIAL RIOTING and FINANCIAL CRISIS and they then proceed to sell out the country to the radical muslim extremists with whom Obama turns out to be related to (on his father’s side) which is who have been financing him and molding him for the past 28 years or so for JUST THIS PURPOSE?

I have faith. But sometimes I think He’s going to let this nation get what we deserve. As a nation,we’ve turned our back on Him long ago.

Still, I’ll certainly ask for mercy.
