If you really want to DO SOMETHING to change the direction of this country, you’ve got to become a voting member of the main adversary to the Debtocrats. The Republican Party is the best tool in the “political tool box” for changing things, but it is too moderate and, therefore, ineffective. If you’re a conservative and really want to change things, become a voting member of the Republican Party — a precinct committeeman — NOW! (In some states, for the next round of elections, the deadlines will expire soon.)

Go here to learn more: http://www.theprecinctproject.wordpress.com

Tired of Michael Steele’s ineffectual “leadership?” Outraged at the fact that Dede Scozzafava got the nod in the NY-23 special election?

Fix it. Become a voting member of the Party. HALF the slots are VACANT. It doesn’t take much time or effort and the payoff — saving our country — is paramount. Do this first, put it at the top of your priority list if you are yearning to DO SOMETHING to save our country. You DO have the time and energy to save this county through the political process. You must get involved in the political process if you want to save this country from socialism and tyranny.

By the way, you know why Boehner, Cantor, McConnell, Kyl, et al. never implore conservatives to come into the Party as voting members of it? Because they like the status quo. The status quo ensures their victory in the next primary election. If more, true conservatives came into the Party back home, then they might face a “better” conservative in their primary election and get (gulp!) replaced. They love the power and will do anything to keep it. Look how long each one of them has been in DC.

YOU can make a difference. I hope you will.

Thank you.

Republicans need a new leader, other then this boring, over tanned stiff they have now. How do you fire up a base with a delivery like that?

Good one.

Look at them…they are standing there, like the Mt Rushmore of defeat. Wake up!

1990 pages of fascism. Might as well get a head start on 2011 and begin moaning and groveling like the peasants in a dystopian nightmare

BullDawg   October 29th, 2009 - 3:52 pm

The hell with the Republican party, we need a real conservative party one that actually believes in the Constitution and the people. We need to get rid of all the socialist pigs, deport all the illegals, put Pelosi and her gang of crooks on trial for treason and put them all on chain gangs for what they are doing to this country. It is time to take back this country http://www.GOOOH.com

Cletus from the trailer park   October 29th, 2009 - 3:53 pm

revolverBoy – yip, yer ding dang right! it’s fashionism! how cood them there gubments think theys cood give evrybuddy helthcare? this is an outrage and we gots to revolt! revolt aginst helthcare for all peeple! peeple who are helthy are jist sheep and pesents in this nitemare! hell, git me outta here!

Nubby   October 29th, 2009 - 3:57 pm

Did you idiots actually listen to the video? I distinctly heard him say, go to healthcare.gop.gov for their ideas. And whadaya know, the website actually exists.

Talk about the pot and the freakin’ kettle.

lavoce   October 29th, 2009 - 3:57 pm

Didn’t have time to read comments but surely I’m not the first to imagine Pelosi’s behaviour is right out of Saul Alinsky’s Handbook.

It would appear Pelosi is not here to serve we the people, but rather her appetite, and that of barry soetoro aka/alias barack hussein obama, and the appetites of all who want a ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. i.e. joe biden, bill and hillary clinton, al gore, harry reid, barney frank, chris dodd, geithner, axelrod, emanuel, jarret, the federal reserve, the bilderberg group, the tri-lateral commission, the council on foreign relations, and the list goes on… and on…

This Bill wouldn’t go into effect until after the presently-planned for 2012 Presidential Election, so what’s the BIG HURRY, CRUELLA?!

Why keep FOXNEWS and Republicans from the Announcement? What are you hiding?

Are you doing this because this Bill is part of the package that must be locked into place in the event usurper barry soetoro aka/alias barack hussein obama signs the irrevocable treaty which will supercede our U.S. Constitution, give away our Sovereignty, make us give all the life you can squeeze out of us – fiscally and physically – to third world countries, and thereby break AMERICA, and AMERICANS and their morale?

Is this BILL the GATEWAY to legally document all personal and medical data of all U.S. citizens and illegals, and hand us over to a ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT, Ms. Nancy?

Look in the mirror, Nanny. Do you see a vain sick wench? I thought so.

Thanks to the STERLING WORK of LORD MONCKTON of England, barry soetoro aka/alias barack hussein obama can no longer quietly depart to deceptively sign away our Sovereignty, and what’s left of our money.

However, the usurper has announced a change of plans, and won’t be going afterall.

So – who’s going in his place, Nanny? What matter is of greater importance to him?

STAY ALERT, AMERICA. My guess is we’re about to be blind-sided any moment by his czars.

What a tremendous HISTORY LESSON you filty scum of the beltway are giving TRUE AMERICANS. AWAY WITH YOU! ALL OF YOU!

IMPEACH barry soetoro aka/alias barack hussein obama
IMPEACH joe biden
IMPEACH nancy pelosi
IMPEACH hillary clinton

ALL ARE IN FAVOR OF A ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. Don’t waste one minute in between EACH IMPEACHMENT

GET ‘EM OUTA HERE – OUTA AMERICA – before our Country goes down in flames.

Cletus from the trailer park is right   October 29th, 2009 - 3:59 pm

Health legislation that is no pages long would be worlds better than 1900 pages of horsesh*t

Desiree   October 29th, 2009 - 4:03 pm

Cletus, you don’t need healthcare, you need to complete the first grade.

Revolver, the American spirit (not talking about cletus) is not one to act like anyone’s peasant. We need to storm DC, and not on a Saturday when the cowards
are conveniently out of town, and take out these twits. If they think they can just slam this on us, they’ve got another thing coming.

It’s time for the second Revolution.

Desiree   October 29th, 2009 - 4:04 pm

No Cletus, I am not one of your relatives.

Cletus from the trailer park   October 29th, 2009 - 4:05 pm

hahaha.. you go get em, Desiree! You do that! You take your wittle plastic pistol that daddy got you for your birthday down there and take over! I heard the Washington D.C. police department and the Secret Service all have weekends off. You should be cool.

Again I’ll ask. Are you re-ta-rded?

Cletus from the trailer park is right again!   October 29th, 2009 - 4:11 pm

How COULD the gubment think theys could give evrybuddy helthcare, when they can’t (with any financial feasibility) even…..
-run a financially-sound postal system
-run an efficient dept. of motor vehicles
-run an unconstitutional rail line
-run an existing medicare system without $60 billion in fraud and financial unsustainabilty
-run a war (not since WWII has the government produced anything nearing victory)
-and on and on the list goes….

But Cletus is wrong that it is an outrage; it is more laughable than anything else

Well, what the He!! have you done for the past 8 plus years, idiot? You and your party of do-nothings had the White House and Congress for six years and did squat. Now shut up and give someone else a chance OR (here’s a novel thought…) COME UP WITH YOUR OWN PLAN.

RobbieK   October 29th, 2009 - 4:46 pm

Looks like Nancy Legosi, Harry Care Reid, and Obama are going to have alot of toilet paper to last their pathetic tails for years, even when they are home in January 2011 & 2013.

Lolesa   October 29th, 2009 - 5:08 pm

WAKE UP ! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! This is not about health care but about a New World order and this administration is
salavating about the possibleity of having you as slaves. Why are they not drilling for oil in America? Why are
they not letting us use any of our boutiful resorces? Because when the dollar is worhtless they will sell
America off bit by bit – China will get California, Mexico will get Texas and on and on. Wake up this is biger
than you even realise! They want everything you have and then some. We have to stop Health care, Crap and Tax,
Net Netrality and ANYthing else they dream up. All needs to be defected or America is gone forever! WAKE UP!

Where is the speed reader and when will this be voted on. The senate will never pass this, there are too many Democrats who have spoken against it. That is unless they lied, like Obama keeps doing, according to the AP.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   October 29th, 2009 - 5:44 pm

Republicans this is your last chance to get it right!

So far, Newt Gingrich, is showing American Republicans that you are still on the fence and siding with the left against the conservative right!

You better take heed and warning…you heard the voices of “real” Americans who DO NOT SIT ON THE FENCE!

We are clearly on the “right” side and fighting the battle to take back our government from the liberal loons and fence sitters in all parties!

If you are not with us, you are against us!

Plain and simple…what side of the fence are you on?

Imagine the outrage from the dems, and the deafening cheers from the American people if Boehner had done just that, lit it on fire, right there in front of the cameras.

Troll “Barackwheat” is part correct (although he/she is too dumb to know it). It’s time for the republicans serious about limited government and on the side of the American people to start standing up and getting loud and angry, the way we are.

Patty   October 29th, 2009 - 6:20 pm

Looks like a whole load of nothing to me. Why ohhh why doesn’t our elected officials listen to us. I am fine with my Health care plan, I’m fine with helping the less fortunate in our country. What I am not fine with is the government and our so called elected officials dictating to me what is good for me and what my thoughts should be. I don’t want the government telling me what to do or think, I’m an intelligent and informed American and want what our forefathers wanted. Freed of Speech and Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. What will make me happy is having the government stay out of my pocket when it comes to running my life. I’m the one that knows how to do that, I learn from my own mistakes and pay for it. Unlike our government who makes mistakes Ex: Acorn, Medicare, Social Security they need to learn from their mistakes when it comes to running things and keep Health care private and not government run.

tellitlikeitis   October 29th, 2009 - 6:27 pm

Bill   October 29th, 2009 - 6:34 pm

Eileen is right. All spineless fence sitters are now on the other side as far as I am concerned. Time grows short.

RightWingInc   October 29th, 2009 - 6:38 pm

It’s going to cost the taxpayers thousands just to print that steaming pile. Just think how much toner, paper and energy costs if all members printed that pile! Talk about a carbon footprint right up the ol’ pooper!

Temple62   October 29th, 2009 - 6:57 pm

Here is a real opportunity for the GOP to come up with a better plan and form a united front behind their new candidate for 2012. No one is going to hand them the majority in the Congress nor the Presidency. Having poorly vetted choices like McCain/Palin cost the the GOP the 2008 election and put Obama in office. The same thing will happen in 2012 unless you get focused behind a viable candidate with goals to restore the country the way it was before Buckwheat got elected.

Larse   October 29th, 2009 - 8:43 pm

“”Now tell me how we are going to fix our health care system with 1,990 pages of bureaucracy?”"

Compared to the Repubs zero pages of just “NO”….

Hahhahahaaaa!!

Bye bye GOP…

One More Patriot   October 29th, 2009 - 10:50 pm

I wonder what kind of penetration a 7.62 X 51 round would achieve on that pile of paper!

BJC   October 30th, 2009 - 2:21 am

WASHINGTON -(Dow Jones)- The Congressional Budget Office said Thursday a U.S. House health-care system re-write would extend health insurance to 96% of the nonelderly U.S. population by 2019, and spend $1.055 trillion to do so.
—————————————————————————————————————————-
This CBO report is on drudge. Does this mean that the CBO is not counting the elderly in on the final cost? It just seems funny the way they wrote it? We still have to pay to cover them right? Thought maybe someone could help me out here.

gordon   October 30th, 2009 - 3:45 am

I agree that we need to take back our Contitution by any
means possible. Mabye we can find somewhere to break away
from all this crap.
I bet that if we had lower tax rates, private enterprise
and a lot smaller governamental role in our affairs, we
could get a lot of buisness to move there and be a free
country again.

GOPman   October 30th, 2009 - 10:06 am

Eileen,
As a long time Republican and conservative let me state emphatically that I am against you and your ignorant kind. You do more harm than good with your silly rants and make conservatives look moronic. Now go back to ranting about Obama’s birth certificate.

duncan   October 30th, 2009 - 10:11 am

RobbieK Nancy Legosi LMFAO That was good

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   October 30th, 2009 - 10:44 am

Dear GOPman at 10:06 am…unfortunately…you are what is wrong with the Republican party and why they always lose!

Conservative Republicans…this is why we must fight hard starting in New Jersey and Virginia! If this person “is” truly a conservative, they wouldn’t make such a dumb statement about the rest of us trying to take our party, and our government, back!

We need to rid the Republican party of all moderate “fence sitters” who attack those of us who are seeking a “winning” party.

To become a “winning party”…the conservatives need to take back our party as the “old time” conservative Democrats need to take back their party that has been hijacked from the Democratzi ultra-liberals!

But than thank you for your comments, GOPman, as misguided as they are! I still respect your right to speak up and speak out in a “free” Republic.

GOPman   October 30th, 2009 - 3:00 pm

You had to put that birth certificate nonsense back in, didn’t you? You realize that every time that you do that you lose credibility.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   October 30th, 2009 - 3:10 pm

Dear GOPman at 3:00 pm…not foolish to those of us who believe it!

Do you not wonder why Bilderberg Bush-Obama pays so much to keep these records hidden?

If you are, also, on the fence about this one, why not call him on it and ask him to produce it to put this to rest!

He won’t…because he cannot!

He has called his mother’s mother…”typically white” for her feelings…and he calls his black Kenyan grandmother a “liar”! His Kenyan grandmother “swears” she was there just after his birth and held him…are you calling her a “liar” also?

The Republican party does not need members like yourself…who sit on the fence and refuse to take a stand for truth!

It is not I who have lost my crediblity…but moderate “fence sitters” like yourself and we will prove who really is in charge of the Republican party come 2010 and beyond!
