We're Part of the Surge to DC for Operation Urgent Care


We're just ouside DC and ready to make a difference! Had signs in the van windows, both sides, on the way north.

I remember how motivating it was for the 912 March when I saw private vehicles with signs and banners and KNEW they were headed to the Capitol. Same thing for the other events when I was on the bus. So... decided to make signs for the van.

We got lots of honks and thumbs up and waves on the way north. Hope some of the people who supported our protest will decide to head to the Capitol today and help stop this unconstitutional power grab.

Know there are a LOT of Patriots coming in from across the Nation. Saw three charter buses from Nashville pulling off the Interstate tonight about 10 p.m. I'm pretty certain they're here for the Surge, too. Can't wait to see the crowds tomorrow, at the rallying point outside the Cannon Office Building and inside all three House buildings. Hope we fill the halls to capacity and beyond.

Please call and fax your representatives today, and also call the ones who are wavering (or being blackmailed and bullied) and tell them to vote NO on the healthcare "reform" takeover attempt. Between your calls and a massive presence within their walls... we CAN Kill the Bill!

I plan to blog and send photos throughout the day, so please check back often for live updates.






Signs read: Patriots Surge to DC, and Honk NO to Healthcare Takeover

The New GM (Government Motors) Introduces the Obamacar

We Need Some Levity at This Critical Time...

















This car runs on hot air, BS and broken promises.

It has three wheels that speed the vehicle through tight left turns.

It comes complete with two Teleprompters programmed to help the occupants talk their way out of any violations.

The transparent canopy reveals the plastic smiles still on the faces of all the happy owners.

Comes in S, M, L, XL and 2XL.

It won't get you to work, but hey, there aren't any jobs anyway!

Slaughter Solution --House Dems Scheme to Pass Obamacare Without a Vote

I read the Slaughter Solution article last night, after reading Carl Cameron's article, Senate Health Care Bill Dead on Arrival, Pro-Life House Democrats Say.

Given the subject matter of the Cameron article, I thought the Slaughter Solution referred to the abortion provisions of the current "health care bill." Apt name for what Obamacare is trying to do... to our youngest and to our elderly. Have to thin the rolls somehow, to keep costs down. Whether you slaughter at the front end or deny care at the end of life (and just WHO determines that euphemism???), either way -- it's slaughter.

So... I was surprised to find that the Slaughter Solution actually refers to House Rules Chairwoman Louise Slaughter (NY 28) who plans to re-write the rules to declare that the House "deems" the Senate version of Obamacare to have been passed by the House. House members would vote on the rule, but not on the bill. Remember "I voted for it before I voted against it" or "That depends on what the definition of 'Is', is."

How stupid do they think we are? Do they really think voters will forget these machinations?

Times have changed. Passions are engaged. Threaten my income, way of life, basic decision-making abilities, re:  healthcare and other choices... that's one thing. But this power grab for 1/6 of the American economy does more than try and take away my freedom of choice. It will kill our economy and continue the devastation of free-market principles that began with the TARP bailouts and the assertion that "Certain companies are 'too big to fail.'"

Fiscal Responsibility. Constitutionally Limited Government. Free Market Principles.

No where in evidence in ANY social reeingineering project being pushed by this administration...

...I was traveling for business earlier this week and took a copy of Glenn Beck's Common Sense in my carry-on. Excellent read. But even better, was re-reading the original Common Sense by Thomas Paine. Such clarity, commitment, and yes, common sense. Oh, for such leaders today.

But we DO have those leaders. It's each one of us, at kitchen tables, with family and friends, at Patriot and Tea Party meetings, 912 Project events, rallies, protests. It's you, reading this now. We can, we have, made a difference.

Because our passion goes beyond republican, democrat and independent. Beyond conservative and liberal (or as they prefer now, progressive). The threat is to the survival of our Nation. And our commitment and passions are equal to the threat.

Our rights come not from the Declaration and Constitution -- these amazing documents simply state what our Founders knew to be obvious -- that our rights and freedoms are from God. We the People, GRANT, LOAN certain powers to the government.

Information is power. Communication is key. There IS strength in numbers and in the peaceful use of the tools guaranteed to us. We have a short time left to use those tools to influence the healthcare debate. Call. Write. Rally. Pray for our Nation.
