"The challenges our country faces are simply too great to let these debates be overrun by those angrily shouting down change"
We have ways of making you shut up!

There’s something poetically fitting for a man who is half white and half black getting the next civil war started.
I’m saving my fire for the NBPP. Those are THE worst thugs of all.
"The challenges our country faces are simply too great to let these debates be overrun by those angrily shouting down change"
“The battle lines for the next civil war are being drawn?”
They have been drawn.
It boils down to the battle between good and evil.
A battle between Patriots who support and defend this country, and the America hating marxists who seek to destroy this country and all it stands for.
Yes. Mao said that to encourage people to say what they really thought -- so that they could be made note of and eliminated in the crackdown which followed.
DETROIT??? Oh, this ought to be good.....real good.
Organizing for America is associated with the DNC. I think it's a "public service" organization that accepts "donations" (Soros).
god forbid they actually listen to what we have to say. Only their voice counts now i guess.
It has started: today Obama sent out this notice to his obots ... BE READY!

This is the moment our movement was built for.
For one month, the fight for health insurance reform leaves the backrooms of Washington, D.C., and returns to communities across America. Throughout August, members of Congress are back home, where the hands they shake and the voices they hear will not belong to lobbyists, but to people like you.
Home is where we’re strongest. We didn’t win last year’s election together at a committee hearing in D.C. We won it on the doorsteps and the phone lines, at the softball games and the town meetings, and in every part of this great country where people gather to talk about what matters most. And if you’re willing to step up once again, that’s exactly where we’re going to win this historic campaign for the guaranteed, affordable health insurance that every American deserves.
There are those who profit from the status quo, or see this debate as a political game, and they will stop at nothing to block reform. They are filling the airwaves and the internet with outrageous falsehoods to scare people into opposing change. And some people, not surprisingly, are getting pretty nervous. So we’ve got to get out there, fight lies with truth, and set the record straight.
That’s why Organizing for America is putting together thousands of events this month where you can reach out to neighbors, show your support, and make certain your members of Congress know that you’re counting on them to act.
But these canvasses, town halls, and gatherings only make a difference if you turn up to knock on doors, share your views, and show your support. So here’s what I need from you:
Can you commit to join at least one event in your community this month?
In politics, there’s a rule that says when you ask people to get involved, always tell them it’ll be easy. Well, let’s be honest here: Passing comprehensive health insurance reform will not be easy. Every President since Harry Truman has talked about it, and the most powerful and experienced lobbyists in Washington stand in the way.
But every day we don’t act, Americans watch their premiums rise three times faster than wages, small businesses and families are pushed towards bankruptcy, and 14,000 people lose their coverage entirely. The cost of inaction is simply too much for the people of this nation to bear.
So yes, fixing this crisis will not be easy. Our opponents will attack us every day for daring to try. It will require time, and hard work, and there will be days when we don’t know if we have anything more to give. But there comes a moment when we all have to choose between doing what’s easy, and doing what’s right.
This is one of those times. And moments like this are what this movement was built for. So, are you ready?
Please commit now to taking at least one action in your community this month to build support for health insurance reform:

Let’s seize this moment and win this historic victory for our economy, our health and our families.
Thank you,
President Barack Obama
I wonder if there used to be a factory there, one which was transformed under the tender ministrations of decades of Democrat rule.
Check out the huge, fenced-off vacant lots at Google Street View, and the shuttered derelict building of the former "American Beauty Electric Irons" factory there.
Obama said as much when he said I won. So I think on that one, I trump you."
I’m thinking the location in Detroit was chosen because only Obama supporters would dare go there.
>Obama said as much when he said I won. So I think on that one, I trump you.”<
well guess what .. I’m not interested in what he thinks he did.
He does not have a mandate with such a small margin and I think he is getting that now.
All the hype coming out of the WH now is showing me that they are afraid that they have put too many cards on the table .
The Administration should hire some professional protesters to go on Obama’s behalf.
That would help the unemployment rate in Mi. :D
Health care is about 1/6 of the US economy. Once they socialize that, it will be politically impossible to reverse. We will have most of the economy under government control, and will be effectively socialist.
They may be willing to lose the following election in exchange for a gain that will be impossible to roll back.
Could this be creation the “O’s” Reichstag Fire? After all, Rahm said not to let any crisis go to waste. So what better than to manufacture one of their own choosing.
I'm sure even Sec Serv agents wouldn't go near the place after dark, LOL.
Here is the bottom line: We are either part of the problem or part of the solution. I say, “we are part of the solution”.
I think Obama would like to see rioting in the streets, as an excuse to crack down on his enemies.
could be, but i think if you read ansky’s rules, they have overstepped their boundaries even for him.
They are certainly capable of making the hype, Obama does it every time he tries to pass a bill.
Rham is devious and would do anything to further his political agenda. He is in DEEP. Perhaps one of the people behind the curtain so to say.
But I think this is just straight out fear that they are dealing with now. They realize that they have sparked a run away train.
