Sounds like Obama is calling for a rumble? They won’t silence us but sicne they don’t work they will show up early so no one else can get into the meetings.

This will only solidify Obama’s disastrous defeat. Let one American get beat up by a brown shirt and it’s all over for the radical left!

In Elko, Obama tried to anticipate his critics and called on the crowd of about 1,500 to sharpen their elbows, too.

“I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face,” he said.

“And if they tell you that, ‘Well, we’re not sure where he stands on guns.’ I want you to say, ‘He believes in the Second Amendment.’ If they tell you, ‘Well, he’s going to raise your taxes,’ you say, ‘No, he’s not, he’s going lower them.’ You are my ambassadors. You guys are the ones who can make the case.”

“To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history, but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.”

Those “organized mobs” are the American people, and Hussein and his minions ignore them at their own risk.

Many of us cannot take time off from work to fight the civil war; we have bills to pay and other people's mortgages to support. Thus, the left wins by default.

Just kidding. I'll be there; hope to see you all; my wife will bake cookies!

This will be happening in Detroit, Michigan. On the one hand, the area is predominantly Obama-voters. On the other hand, Michigan is a "shall issue" CCW state. Any "beat-down" stands a chance of escalating.

Perhaps this is what Obama really wants -- a beat-down at an event that turns into a shoot-out between sides, to give him an excuse to go after the Right.

You have an obligation to report any deviation from universal support.
Failure to do so will be considered unprogressthought.

That requirement will start being enforced in 2010, by the O-bots standing in front of the polls.

“Organized Mobs”??!!! The more our President and those in control of Congress treat Americans with such contempt and disrespect the more I believe that a day of reckoning is coming. Our President and his administration are using Chicago mafia-style tactics against the other half of Americans who don’t march in lockstep with their agenda!

"Organized mobs across the country are intimidating lawmakers, disrupting events, and silencing discussions about the change our country needs," reads a letter from OFA's Michigan State Director to Obama allies."
