Obama & company are calling in their "troops"
Jawa Report ^ | August 5, 2009 | Stable Hand

Posted on 08/05/2009 11:30:44 AM PDT by La Lydia

President Barack Obama to me:

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.[Fight the truth with lies is more like it...ed]

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?...Let's seize this moment and win this historic victory for our economy, our health and our families. Thank you,

President Barack Obama

(Wonder how many Obamabots are left....)

THis shows he is getting very scared. If he had that many supporters they would be in play already.

Also...don’t fall for his tactics; not only is he hoping the right makes the first wrong move, but he NEEDS a crisis.
These people are trained agitators.
“Never Let A Good Crisis Go To Waste”—they are banking on it.

"And so it starts....which side will draw blood first?"

Acorn probably. They'll probably be armed this time.

You know what? I really think a LOT of the “Obama Lovers” are not with Hussein on this issue.

To be sure, there are cultists that will never cross him...but I think the majority of working folks who supported this goofball despise the idea of government run health care.

We’ll see.

"There are only a handful of ACORNS, compared to US!!!!!!"

there were only a "handful" of Nazi ss troops, and 6 million Jews, and look what happened.

Plus, Acorn canvassers have nothing else to do, while the people that matter in this country have to work, to pay for that 100 billion Acorn is spending to pass out Obama propaganda.

“I doubt it. ACORN has a hundred billion dollars of funding. We have none.” (Nathan)

Congratulations, Nathan - you’ve just fallen for their Rule 1, and Rule 9.

RULE 1: “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.”

RULE 9: “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.”

This is the time to fight fire with an inferno, and not fall for their intimidations!!

This is just baby steps. Next comes organized informing, “committees for the defense of the revolution”, and blacklists. Obama and his thugs can order up selective IRS tax audits, FBI investigations, grand jury subpoenas and indictments, and all the other apparatus of the federal government to harass, intimidate and squash the protest movement, in addition to putting his ACORN brownshirts and Black Panther thugs onto the streets for more direct action. He is modelling himself on his amigo Hugo Chavez, and what worked in Venezuela he figures will work here too.

Except this time it is the AMERICAN PEOPLE that stand in the way. You are President for all of us!

What a communist tool he is...

They allowed their weapons to taken. Wannabe Nazis in this country would have a much harder (impossible) time rounding people up.

I posted mine on an earlier thread.

Ridiculous. They can in the same email say that the protestors are lying when they say they aren’t organized, and then try to ORGANIZE pro-deathcare?
