Genuine, no kidding lights-on funeral processions - Death of American Economy processions with (optional, but very effective, if donated) hearses or town cars in every lane leading the procession in a looooong and sloooow trip into the cities...something that can't be ignored...something that is NOT illegal and needs no permits...in every city in America.
Slow down, America, slow down, Congress and slow down Mr. President. Speed Kills. Haste makes waste. Turn that long drive home into a marathon of slowing down and patience. It might be considered obstructionist, but why not obstruct socialism? Besides, we just need to slow things down - get those blue dogs thinking REAL hard about this - get those RINOS to stop rollling over and maybe get some moderate to conservative Dems back in the fold.
Bring the family, make it a nice Sunday drive with some like minded friends...it doesn't take a whole lot of people to clog every main road in a city - if you live or work near one, you know where the weak spots are - 30 or so cars together coming from each direction into LA, Chicago, NYC, Boston...the smaller the city the easier to do, but no logistical genius required to map it out either.
If you fill each lane with a 55mph vehicle starting 30 miles out on the North and South, the East and West, the alternate main routes, etc...you know where they are...just set out at a time that will put you thirty miles from the city at precisely 5am going in or or 4pm coming out - on a weekday or 5pm going in on a Sunday. Find that sweet spot on a road map and - let's call it the Freedom On-ramp - and that's all the organization you need. A lot of us found each other last Friday easy enough.
No laws broken - nothing to endanger the public - just a slow and steady crawl along the highways and byways - don't stop, just take a leisurely drive - let everyone know that America needs to slow down a little and not rush into anything socialist.
Just a thought...from a frustrated taxpayer who wants us to slow down...who wants to slow things down and doesn't understand the huge outlay this administration is demanding for such a small return on investment (I am, after all a businessman and ROI is everything these days). Give me an early morning, an afternoon or a Sunday evening and we could probably field a good sized team that could get a lot of attention by slowing things down...and it could be, that we could accomplish something good...like the man said, "on any given Sunday."
Or weekday. Wonder if the talk shows would be interested in covering a drive time story?
discipline would be critical - we couldn't go and stop in the middle of the highways or do road blocks - there would be knucleheads that would want to start trouble...I know those concerns would be big...but I think we can do this responsibly. There have been some real effective tractor and truck rallies...
For your consideration...
...
Speed does NOT kill, and taking more time to get started protesting this just means that there will be that much more garbage run through to repeal... IF that ever happens.
And if it was legal, I’d shoot you for blocking traffic and wasting energy and time. GET THE F**K OUT OF MY WAY.
Oh, and by the way? The 55mph double nickel limit was a SOCIALIST invention that proved to NOT save energy but cost the US economy untold BILLIONS.
Personally, I think we should all mail the DECLARATION of INDEPENDENCE to the PRESIDENT.....in the same week....
By the time the Sycophant Drive By Media is done spinning this yarn, they'll be putting Bambi's face on a 100 Dollar Bill.
I always drive slower than everyone else (the hyper latte sipping yuppies) can go around if they’re in a hurry!
We now have several major issues with which to AROUSE citizens to take action... The action I strongly urge is to occupy D.C. with one - two - even three million citizens.
Obama and the DEMS have provided the motivation for a MASSIVE protest ... We have threats by the Obama Regime to control guns, we have Obama staffing his Cadre to force Amnesty of 20M Illegals upon us (while not securing the Mexican Border)... we have Obama (Reid and Pelosi) moving to force Socialism down the throats of Capitalistic America, we have the banks being nationalized, we have an outrageous - beyond belief Democrat imposed Stimulus Edict, we have Obama and the DEMS proposing - imposing a Gargantuan Budget that will bury our children and grandchildren in debt ...
We have ALL THESE EXCESSES by OBAMA-REID-PELOSI the OPR condemning generations to Socialist Servitude and SECOND CLASS citizenship upon AMERICANS....
I say - MASS millions in D.C. - Summer would be best... localized protest will be ignored and will not work... MASS in D.C. by the millions and SHUT the Government down...
Our future is not dependent upon the convenience of an available set of vacation days, babysitters, or days off... OUR FOREFATHERS did not take a vacation to REVOLT against KING GEORGE... TAKE A RISK to SAVE THIS NATION !!!!
Anything less than MASSIVE will be totally ignored...
Speed it up, I say. Run for your lives! We need a hormonally driven, hysterical crash to make way for leadership by real adults: those who are no longer infected by so much chirping, twittering, and uncomely bellowing from sexually confused propagandists on television and radio.
we want America to succeed and Obama to fail. This will only promote the opposite.
And BTW, my suggestion (slowing down on consumerism) will also put the pushy piggies in traffic in unemployment lines. They don’t do produce anything useful to us when at “work,” anyway.
It’s called “rushing to failure”. It’s real popular in Washington D.C. Everybody is doing it.
You would have the option of also saying Death of America, not just ‘American economy’. What we are witnessing today is the actual death of the America our forefathers passed to us. We have had our moments of trial and temptaions in the past, but we have allowed the left to take everything away from us incrementially. We have been asleep, just getting on with life, while they have been moving and shaking things to it very core. Maybe the procession would help more Americans see how ‘late’ it is and get involved to turn it around. We may not have the chance to turn it around with voting if we don’t take back some ground...and not just a couple seats, in the 2010 elections. It will truly be over, then.
People are sheep (sheeple) until their kids bellies are empty. Then they go berserk, kill people and depose the government/bourgeosie.
