As one blogger put it, "Change...
Â
... it’s happening right before your eyes.
Â
All the labels and name calling coming from the
Whitehouse and the Liberals in Congress have come to fruition.
It started with Joe the Plumber. Then, anyone who was watching was not really
surprised at how Sara was treated. And when the Whitehouse
started asking for info on "fishy" emails and web pages ... again, no surprise.
Neither is the current situation a surprise to anyone who has been
paying attention to who Obama really is.
White House advises lawmakers on handling event disruptions
By RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR and ERICA WERNER (AP) – 13 hours ago
WASHINGTON — Top White House officials counseled Democratic senators Thursday on coping with disruptions at public events on health care this summer, officials said, and promised the party and allies would respond with twice the force if any individual lawmaker is criticized in television advertising. [Check out the HCAN Playbook, here.]

Still, Obama and congressional leaders are now doing EXACTLY what they are accusing the Republicans of doing: stacking townhall meetings with left-wing supporters. As noted in The Atlantic: "The Service Employees International Union says it's working to turn out its members at town-halls in states where it has a presence, coordinating with members of Congress to orchestrate turnout. (I mentioned earlier that the AFL-CIO will be doing that with a new, targeted campaign.) SEIU was working on town-hall turnout already, along with the rallies and phone banks it has planned across the country for recess, but conservative protests have led to a greater focus on ramping up town-hall presence specifically, in addition to the rest of the program."
In a post on CNN, the author notes that "liberal groups are sending supporters detailed instructions on strategies to counter what they call organized disruptions of congressional town halls -- events that have become new front lines in the fight over President Obama's health care proposal."
So, Obama and the Democrats accuse concerned citizens of being part of some right-wing effort to create an "angry mob," yet they are doing the same thing. The report continues:
OFA (Organizing for America) sent its e-mail list a message Thursday that pointed to the protests as a fresh hurdle that called for a concerted push to contact members of Congress in response. "The goal of these disruptions is for a few people to get a lot a media attention and hijack the entire public discourse," wrote executive director Mitch Stewart. The message identifies the lawmaker who represents the specific congressional district of the e-mail recipient, and provides contact information.
A new campaign by the group also asks supporters to make their presence felt at town hall meetings. "Our congressional representatives are back home this month, and they're facing more and more pressure from special interests on health insurance reform. It's critical that we get out there and show them where we stand," says an OFA e-mail. ... and there's more.

Proverbs 13:20
He who walks with wise men will be wise,
but the companion of fools will suffer harm...
Keeping these things in mind, there is another issue
on the horizon; we must not
forget the union involvement here,
at people's homes,
and in Whitehouse policies
when it comes time again
to contemplate Card Check.
Â
Remember this when EFCA comes up
again for consideration.
Vote no. Yell no.
Â
Give a bigTown-Hall NO to EFCA /Card Check.
Â
NO to the Employee Free Choice Act
Â
NO to Card Check
Â
Why swell their heads and give them leave to swell more people's noses?
Â
Why give them even more power than they already have?

The assailing has begun as the Obama administration has promised! We American Citizens must stand strong.
Hello Bryan,
I wasn't trying to stir up trouble .. that's just an experiment. It'll be a couple of weeks or so before the results are in, though.

As long as people go looking for trouble its going to find them no matter which side of the fence you are on. As far as the video goes I saw a bunch of rednecks causing trouble. There was nothing to indicate who was conservative and who was liberal in the video so I take it with a grain of salt and people just trying to stir the pot like double posting this with a different title with one mentioning Black man in the title.
Couldn't we do this simply by working on regulating Insurance companies without doing all the other stuff? ... Wouldn't this be where letting insurance companies compete over state lines would come in handy? Or am I confusing public option with something else. . .
Thanks for stopping by L.H. :)

Here are but few, for example:
The deal with Jeffrey Imelt (GE, NBC, MSNBC).
Rohm Emanuel's brother (a Whitehouse health-policy adviser at the Office of Management and Budget, and a member of Federal Council on Comparative Effectiveness Research). He wrote,"Complete Lives Systems."
David Ogden
And let's not forget the more basic associations which made Obama's heart and mind more receptive and open to that kind of infestation described above:
For example:
Saul Alinsky and Bill Ayres
Keith said: already the race card has come.
Lee says: Of course. It's always just under the surface. When someone's facts run out and they figure out we just don't look at stuff the same way ... then the race card comes out. It's like four letter words; once ya start using them, you've lost the argument. Same with the race card. Once it's brought out ya know they've come to the end of their valid arguments.
Keith said: I think some of the confussion may come from the fact that Barack has not worte a National Health Care plan he left it up to the Senate to draw one up. Also the Congress has another.
Lee says: That may be so for some people; but for me it's not confusion; it's Obama himself. One example of what I mean is, it's obvious to anyone who is looking that his adviser, Rahm's brother, has certain beliefs. Lo and behold some parts of the bill can be interpreted to reflect those beliefs ("Complete Lives Systems"). . .

The Dictator hates what he is seeing and said about him and already the race card has come.
I think some of the confussion may come from the fact that Barack has not worte a National Health Care plan he left it up to the Senate to draw one up. Also the Congress has another.
So unless he is reading for 24 hours at a time him and everybody else on both sides of the aisle do not know what the Health Plan is and has no clue as to the cost.
He just wants it done so he can be man of the Year on the cover of the Rolling Stone, The Times and every liberal rag in the country.
If they do pass it cause they do have the majority it proves that nobody was listening just remember to vote them out in 2010 when the time is up.
I think a referrendum would be the best way to go. Send it out to the people and let them vote on it. That way it will be out of self interest groups and the representives who have an agenda. This is all about big money.
It ain't pretty, and it ain't American!
