Be A Czar!
CLASSIC! YOU can be a Czar too! Of whatever you want! Get your Czar gear today!
Oh, yeah!
Now this is awesome. I would love to see these all over by November…just because it would mean people are waking up!
My fervent prayer to God every day is that people wake up. That the bonds of stupidity and socialist thinking fall from their poor sheep-like minds like they did from people like David Horowitz and Whittaker Chambers. Maybe it’s rare, I don’t know. But that is my prayer. Please God, touch their hearts and minds. Amen.
And if a billboard maybe is the thing that makes them wake up and smell the bullsh!t, then I am happy to be a part of it. I am not involved in any way, except as a financial contributor. You can contribute, too, if you like…click on the billboard above.
Please ring some phones!!
Please remember that the current Obamacare legislation:
- Cuts Medicare for seniors by $500 billion.
- Will lead to doctors – and medical institutions – refusing to treat Medicare patients.
- Forces every American to buy health insurance under the penalty of a fine or jail.
- Establishes a Medicare Advisory Board of government bureaucrats empowered to ration health care for seniors, cut their benefits.
- Will not lead to a cost savings once the doc fix is added, and it will be.
There is so much more wrong with this bill. The fact is we may never have a better opportunity than now to stop the radical Obamacare.
It is urgent key members of Congress hear from you.
Here are Congressmen whose votes are not clearly decided. Please call them at both their Washington and district offices:

Tell your Congressman you OPPOSE the Obamacare Plan and that they must vote AGAINST it!
Tea Party Tomorrow!
We were THISCLOSE to packing some clothes and heading out at midnight last night to drive to DC.
That’s when we would need to leave to make it there. In the end, we discussed what responsibilities we had here at home, with an elderly mom and jobs and a mortgage to pay. We decided it would be difficult at best to make it there in time, and that it would make it next to impossible to pay our bills if we used the money on gas, food and hotel rooms for a trip to this rally.
Then it hit me. THIS is why the Tea Party movement is an incredible phenomenon in and of itself! Most conservatives, regardless of party affiliation, are RESPONSIBLE people who pay their own way and don’t expect handouts. Much too responsible to drop all the things they have to do for their families and their employers, or employees, to just run to a rally. No matter how important the protest.
I have been to several. We have given up lunches and rearranged schedules to dri
ve as many as 7 hours to attend them. It’s THAT important to us that this travesty called “health care reform” not be passed into law. The double counting, fuzzy math, backroom dealing, stealing from the elderly and flat out LYING in this bill…not to mention the fact that they are disregarding the directive of the American people AND the CONSTITUTION to do it!
There are are so many people that don’t see the whole picture. We do not have people dying in the streets for lack of health care. Doctors and hospitals aren’t turning people away for lack of insurance. I worked in health care for over 20 years. We saw people without insurance all the time. Medicare and Medicaid need to be fixed and expanded, if there really are people not covered. Absolutely. Do THAT first. And the insurance companies need to have some guidelines as to not being able to drop people when they get sick. That’s why we pay for insurance in the first place. Duh. Allow insurance sales across state lines. Make them work for our business. But this bill doesn’t do that and will end the health care we have now…the best health care in the world. Health care workers need to CALL THEIR REPS! Tell them to VOTE NO!
This makes me so sick. I just watched Pelosi…again…say she is assured of a victory “for the American people”. This health care travesty is NOT what MOST of us want and I am livid. They have no business issuing “rights” and the folks that elected them to office don’t either. I will be here tomorrow, calling whoever I can to beg them to vote no. Please do the same. Call them. E-mail them. Go to their office. Please ask them to vote no. This is not what we want.

If you want to make your voice heard on the health-care bill before the House votes on Sunday, you’d better do so quickly. To make things easier for you, here, organized in alphabetical order by state, are the 40 key Democratic members of Congress whom Jeff Anderson and Andy Wickersham identified in a Critical Condition post last week, together with their direct Capitol Hill office phone numbers. (I haven’t kept track of all the developments since then, but it would be useful to congratulate or berate your member, as you see fit, if he or she has firmly adopted a position.)
The “(S)” means that the member voted for the Stupak amendment last fall.
The full House phone directory is here.

Call to Rally in D.C.
The liberals are trying to push this vote through on a Sunday during Lent to keep us from being able to contact our Reps and voicing our opinions. So, Reps. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and Steve King (R-IA) to try to organize a tea party rally at the Capitol on Saturday. If anyone is available at this short notice to go to DC, you can RSVP at the site below. If you want to support those going, check out the site anyhow. I will be praying for everyone who can make the trip and calling to see what else I can do to help.
Let’s not forget these are the same folks who have been screaming about a woman’s “RIGHT” to choose what to do with her own body regarding abortion…the killing of another person for your own convenience. And yet…they want to make it Federal law that the Government can tell EVERYONE what they can do with their bodies regarding healthcare!! As usual, they make no sense at all. Don’t sit back and let them vote this in to law!
People’s Saturday Surge on DC
Liar, Liar
I watched Obama during his farce of an “interview” with Bret Baier on FoxNews last night. It is so obvious that he doesn’t even care that we know he’s lying about everything he says. He doesn’t know what’s in the bill. He said so. BlahBlahBlah. It could have been any one of his recent speeches.
He refuses to tell us about all the “deals” that are in the bill. Because he has no idea. And yet he is STILL claiming “transparency” in his administration and in the process. Yeah. About as transparent as those doors they were hiding behind when they made those back room deals.
I will be very surprised if this thing doesn’t pass. God only knows what’s been promised in exchange for votes. And here’s the thing: Knowing how much the liberals have lied to the American people…how on earth do they trust each other to follow through on those promises?

Note to Pelosi
Nancy. Madam Speaker. Princess. Whatever. You need to understand this, and I have finally figured out what it is that you don’t get.
YOU think we’re angry. YOU think we are having town hall “tantrums” like little children, because we didn’t get our way. That is absolutely wrong. What you are seeing at town halls and tea parties is not anger. Anger is mild compared to what we feel and our passion is not born of resentment or disappointment. Don’t get me wrong, we feel that too. Very strongly. Every time you speak, I feel that. But no, this is different.
What we feel is beyond anger, beyond disappointment. What we feel is outraged.
You and your cronies have been chiseling away at the backbone of this country for the few years you have been in the majority. Understand you are only in the majority in Washington. In less than a year, you and Obama have taken this country in a direction that I cannot imagine any true American would even joke about going. I can only believe you are all completely insane, and I would feel sorry for you if you weren’t endangering the country I love.
Earlier this week a woman called in to Rush Limbaugh’s show. Yes, I know how you hate Rush. Maybe it’s actually demon possession…don’t they go crazy at the sound of truth being spoken? But truth is what this woman spoke and I really wish you could listen to her. She is a fellow Californian, one of your people, if not a “constituent”, per se.
But you should listen. Because there are more of us every day. Every day, one more person…or a hundred, depending on what stupid, irresponsible, communistic thing you and your cronies have pulled that day…become outraged and join our ranks. So stop your bawling and crybaby act. YOU are doing this, Nancy. Obama is doing this. We were asleep…and you partied too loud and took too much advantage. Now we’re awake…and we’re beyond angry. WE ARE OUTRAGED.
Here is part one of Susan’s call on YouTube – there are three parts:
[Part Two] [Part Three]
Ten for ’10!
Thanks, Laura…awesome petition!
TEN FOR ’10: WINNING WASHINGTON BY EMPOWERING AMERICANS1. Taxpayers’ Bill of Rights (TABOR). Limit federal spending growth to the percentage in population growth plus the rate of inflation; provide taxpayers the option of filing a post-card sized return using a low, flat tax rate of 15%
2. End Tax-funded abortions. Stop federal payments to Planned Parenthood and prohibit any taxpayer-subsidized health insurance plan from covering abortion
3. Defend American Borders. Complete America’s border-protection initiatives using remaining funds from the so-called stimulus bill
4. King Dollar. Preserve a strong dollar so that Americans’ savings aren’t wiped out by inflation and the U.S. dollar remains the world’s reserve currency
5. Empower American Business. Immediately slash corporate tax rates to 15% and scrap the capital-gains tax altogether
6. Defend America. Strengthen America to defend our homeland and fully fund an operational, layered missile-defense system
7. Statism Exit Plan. De-fund czars; immediately cease bailout payments to failed companies; ban future bailouts
8. End Generational Theft. As few believe America’s entitlement programs will be able to pay benefits to future generations, provide younger workers the choice of diverting payroll/Social Security taxes into personal retirement accounts
9. Restore America’s System of Justice. Introduce penalties for frivolous lawsuits, where those who launch unsuccessful lawsuits are liable for the defendants’ legal bills
10. American Energy Independence. All-of-the-Above strategy that embraces alternatives, expands and accelerates exploration and production of oil and natural gas, and jumpstarts dramatic increases in nuclear power.

We Have to Stop This!
All you have to do is watch this video:
Now, if you hate Glenn Beck, fine, it’s not about him…even if you hate Daniel Hannan, fine. It’s not about him either.
It’s about the facts. The UK’s health care system…the one these crazy, misguided people in DC wants to “model” our health care plan after…is the THIRD LARGEST EMPLOYER IN THE WORLD!
I hope you folks who voted for Obama and regret it are paying attention. This is not something we can fix once it’s in place. We have to stop it now. Before it’s allowed to happen. If you regret your decision, fine…help us now. Make your voice heard. Don’t just be quiet out of guilt or embarrassment. Write a letter, send an e-mail, put a bumper sticker on your car, wear a t-shirt. SOMETHING.
Even the Baucus plan that he claims is NOT a public option is a bad deal. The BS about it not being “a public option” is just not true. You cannot put a government run plan in competition with other plans that are regulated by the government. I mean, that’s just common sense. That’s what is lacking in Congress right now. COMMON SENSE!
Please, people…we need to bring this country back to majority rules and common sense. The insane fringe has taken over and they think they have the answers and they just don’t. Help us stop this health care nightmare before it begins.
SHAME ON YOU HYPOCRITES!
SHAME on these two-faced hypocrites who BOOED and heckled Bush at the 2005 SOTU address and got NO rebukes. Crybaby, two-faced, UNAMERICAN [Yes, Nancy Pelosi, I mean YOU!] HYPOCRITES! Don’t you have something better to do than whine and cry about someone acting like YOU people do as a rule?
I grew up during the sixties, when the only people protesting were “peace lovers”, Doves they were called then. The peace sign was new and all the rage. Back in the 60′s, my Mom was a democrat. And as soon as I was old enough to have an opinion, I saw the error in that mindset. She was a victim all her life, expecting someone else to pay her way. I have been working, paying taxes and doing for myself since I was 14. No one had to pay me to go the the Tea Parties and I wish I could have been in DC on 9/12/09. Of course, the cowardly lyin’ left the White House so that he didn’t have to listen to us, once again. Typical.
But Sen. Joe Wilson stood FOR us during POTUS’s speech last week. When all of us who truly love this country and want it returned to the people WOULD have screamed “LIAR!” at the top of our lungs had we been allowed, he did it for us. He apologized. I would NOT have…it is what we, over 50% of us now, absolutely believe.
It’s NOT about race, it’s not unAmerican. Maureen Dowd is a desperate, pathetic waste of flesh. If she heard the word “boy” as an unsaid word, then SHAME ON HER! She is the racist in this scenario.
And today? His hypocrite “brethren” voted on a resolution of disapproval on him for his outburst. I am so angry I am beside myself. HOW DARE THEY???
He was the ONLY one who dared to speak for the PEOPLE! The second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence reads as follows:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Good for Joe, for taking the high road on this deal and recognizing it as the ridiculous circus that it was. I am not so gracious.
I think this Government as a whole, and most certainly the hypocritical and tyrannical members, who believe they somehow have been elected Princes and Princesses, need to climb down off of their high horses. They are ALL corrupt and they ALL are coming under the scrutiny of their BOSSES…WE THE PEOPLE!
