This behavior from the Democratic party is unacceptable. Allen Boyd will be coming to my area soon and he will be getting an ear full. They apparently are not reading this bill, but I am and I’m mad as hell. Folks, search H.R. 3200 at gpo.gov and read it for yourselves.

Like was said in this clip, the Tea Party movement is filled with Republicans, Independents, and Democrats. We are not sent by a party or by large organizations, like the Democrats and their media allies want to tell us, lying through their teeth. These clips are all available on Breitbart and http://www.AmericanParchment.com. There are clips about the Town Hall meetings, Democrats telling lies, contradicting themselves. I swear, they like to say we are dumb, but what about them, they are all gaffe masters like Biden, “Open Mouth, Insert Foot.” What is it with the Democrats trying to tear down what they tried to start? Literally, Obama told his supporters to get in the oppositions face, yell and argue with them. Now that the Tea Party, Grassroots movement is starting up, the Democrats are scared. And this will be their downfall. The last grassroots movement that occurred of all parties was with Reagan and this is the beginning of the next.

True, the repubs are clueless at this point and deserve no credit for the backlash we are seeing. After that sham of a presidential campaign I have no confidence in them to recover at all. It may well be the grassroot dems who have discovered their party has been co-opted by the communists and is trying to bury them alive that bring about some change in direction.
The nationalization of health care delivery is the second battle and it is starting to look like it might be won. The first battle was the bailout of corporate thieves and America obviously lost that one.

America…the Democratzi and their congressional henchmen are beliving their “own” hype about this “government run” healthcare!

What they do not realize is that they come home to visit and touch base with their constituents for one reason…to hear what “we” have to say and what “we” want.

Instead…they have agained spinned their mission and commitment to their constituents…they think “they” are supposed to come home and tell us what “they” want and what “they” are going to do!

They have no idea how mad the average American taxpayer is…we have watched them pass a $750 million (or was it billion or trillion) bailout because the “sky was falling”!

Then they lost about $70 million or billion (who is counting? = we are slugs!) and then could not even tell us where it went?

Then they passed that “pork” filled stimulus that was to creat jobs for Americans and fix our economy.

Then they passed the Omnibus bill to keep the government going…until September when they will ask for more money!

All the while they were easily passing these with the approval of the Democratzi and Republican henchmen (turncoats) we were calling and emailing them “our” wishes which they promptly ignored.

We learned from those fiascos what we needed to do and we are doing it!

We are standing up and speaking out the truth! We want no more spending…we want no cap & trade…we want no “overhaul” of the best healthcare in the world…no way…Jose!

Get it or get out…we are warning you right here and now…you better take a stand for the American taxpayer to save your phony baloney job!

You are on notice…come home and “listen to us”! Hear us…read our lips…no more spending!

====================

THE REVOLUTION OF THE SILENT MAJORITY – SILENT NO MORE!

1. GETTING INFORMED

2. GETTING INVOLVED

DON’T TREAD ON US…WE PAY YOUR BILLS!

thank God for Michelle Malkin– she is articulate, bright and doggone it — people like her because she makes sense!
I hope that the left keeps making fools of themselves– I hope that more and more people are on to their deception.
Eileen is right– get involved in your community– find out who are the leaders that you can trust– if they can’t be trusted find those who can be. Continue to hound our elected officials– remind them whom they are serving– daily!

Obama and his bunch of stooges are now asking that you rat on your friends and neighbors by forwarding “fishy” email or web pages to government officials. Here is the quote…

“If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov

I say FILL ER UP!

Dear flag,

Check this website, the birth cirtificate seems “FISHY”.

Looks like Murdoch’s News Corp (FOX) lost $3.4 billion last year.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2009/aug/05/news-corp-losses

There is talk of making all you FOXhounds “pay” for the privilege of getting your fairly biased FOX news. A “FOXtax” you could say :D

Not only are the Rushrublicons destroying themselves, they are now taking down the rest of the Neocon empire with them. :D

Here’s the Deal: One might say the Dems. have no IDEA what’s in store for them come election time… NOT ! They DO have a very Clear idea… that’s why all the opposing ads and smears… they are “Running Scared” ! PERIOD

Hey “LARSE” – Breaking News for you ! I’m a Republican… and I darn well will not pay a penny for ONline news.. whether it’s from FOX OR CNN ! PERIOD These guys are crazy.. The only thing it will do is make us run to Non-Subscribe. websites. Yep – That’s the Truth !

Wow, sounds like the white house has declared war against Americans who are not card carrying democrat member and good dressers too. ( Is pelosi sane? Did something suck her brain out at some point? Car accident? Brain injury? How on earth did she get her job? )

Shooting unarmed soldiers on American streets the TOTUS says nothing, cue one raving ignorant race baiting Harvard prof and he’s all foot in mouth to preach a teachable moment-read heavily applied white guilt, on national tv. And his numbers aren’t looking too good either, think they’d have taken a more conciliatory tone with this, no?

Fox rules   August 6th, 2009 - 3:01 am

The FOX News Channel (FNC) operating income, as compared to the prior year, increased 50% for both the fourth quarter and the full year, primarily from increased affiliate revenues. For the full year, FNC primetime ratings were up 45% compared with the same period a year ago.

And Fox News continues on a ratings tear this week. On Monday night and again last night, FNC beat the combined prime time averages, in both Total Viewers & A25-54 viewers, of MSNBC and CNN.

In fact last night, “The O’Reilly Factor” (on cable TV) averaged 3.67 million Total Viewers at 8pmET topping the 8pm average of 2.91M on ABC (on broadcast TV), with “Superstars.”

The tea party event I attended had whites, blacks, latinos, asians, gay, straight, republicans, democrats, independents all under the same banner: we have had enough and we are not going to take it anymore. No one asked me, urged me, begged me, or paid me to attend. In fact I paid to park my car and walk several blocks to attend.

Typical white house distraction with absolutely NO idea of the source of the “anger”. Their accusations and recent manuevers (flag snitch) are all deflections to draw attention away from the crapola they are attempting to pass.

Laffing at (L)Arsehole   August 6th, 2009 - 7:28 am

The people in the media who laff and mock us do so at their own peril and Pelosi and her minions also are stirring a hornets nest that will be felt by the media in their purses and the democrats at the polls and morons like what and the (L)Arsehole will be crying in their baby food.

Hey This Poor Girl Needs Help

Thank you for proving the conservative point that when liberals have no logical retort for a valid argument, you just resort to personal attacks. Is rahmbo your daddy? Why don’t you post REAL pics of yourself so we can compare you to Michelle. We conservatives have more hot women just on Fox alone than you do in all of hollyweird, I happen to like our women better thank you.

This poor girl needs help!   August 6th, 2009 - 12:48 pm

anon and demdicks,
I guess that shows what you conservatives like in your women. Bring on the hot, but keep them dumb. And I have seen many comments on this site referring to the appearance of Pelosi and other Democratic women so don’t claim any moral high ground, Bub.

“Old Guy August 6th, 2009 – 12:31 am” – Well put. As a conservative minded individual I have many words for the Republicans also. Many of them are just as power hungry as the other side of the house. I’ve written on the requests for money from them tore up that same paper work and sent it back to the GOP in the prepaid envelops.
And you’re right about the first two wars – the tird to come is Cap and Trade.

@CommonSense
“Hey Dummy “Larse August 6th, 2009 – 2:28 am” – I don’t watch FOX news unless it’s shown on here – LOL!”

FOX will also charge for content for reuse from places like Bart here. Aside from the B-cast, Bart does not create any of the content here. They take it all from others. No more YouTube or direct linking! I wonder if Bart will go under too :(

It would be interesting if we had to “pay” Bart! In that case, the money would go toward the news we like. You guys could pay to see stories from FOX and we could pay to see stuff from MSNBC! It is interesting to think about where that would go. Dumb stories like Birther stuff would probably still be given away for free. While good stories like “Inside the Obama Whitehouse”, “Obama’s first 100 days of successes”, and “Cheney goes to prison for War Crimes” would cost $5.00! Think about it… You would buy your news like you buy soft drinks. If you don’t like it, buy another brand…

Of course, Murdoch is really just blowing hot air. Nobody is going to pay for any of that crap :D Maybe he will just go bankrupt, or actually provide programming advertisers are willing to pay for instead of being embarrassed by.

Larce the farce   August 6th, 2009 - 4:18 pm

Larce the farce, you do swallow it.

OUR NEW HEALTH CARE MODEL = EUGENICS   August 6th, 2009 - 7:26 pm

CHOICE QUOTES from Dr. Mengela’s, ooops, Dr. Emanuel/Wertheimer/Persod’s COMPLETE LIVES SYSTEM…

“When implemented, the complete lives system produces a priority curve on which individuals aged between roughly 15 and 40 years get the most substantial chance, whereas the youngest and oldest people get chances that are attenuated.

Unlike allocation by s*x or race, allocation by age is not invidious discrimination; every person lives through different life stages rather than being a single age. Even if 25-year-olds receive priority over 65-year-olds, everyone who is 65 years now was previously 25 years. Treating 65-year-olds differently because of stereotypes or falsehoods would be ageist; treating them differently because they have already had more life-years is not.”

NOTE: CLEARLY THIS SYSTEM IS CALCULATED TO *FAVOR CHILD-BEARING YEARS* OF INDIVIDUALS (AGE 15-40), IN HOPES OF PRODUCING MORE LIB-T@RDS TO PERPETUATE THEIR NEW WORLD ORDER!!! LOL!

Yes, the Republican congress,many, are clueless. They are clueless because they continue to sell us out for aggrandizement and to the highest bidder. Look at their voting records. Yes, republican bloggers, I am sorry to say, they [republican congress members] are no better than democrats. Let this be a warning to all of government that we the people will take back the CONSTITUTION.

mary M   August 6th, 2009 - 9:46 pm

When petitioned to sign the Health Reform, congressional members on the finance reform committe refused to pass the bill through the senate. Do see the refusal on the home page. The refusal is the hypocrisy that has me steaming. If you continue to think that congress does not feel that they are aristocrats, watch and comment on the clip on the home page: dems refuse to sign amendment.

Larse   August 6th, 2009 - 10:59 pm
