Politico ^ | 2009-12-14 | Meredith Shiner

Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) is putting Capitol Hill on a "Code Red" alert Tuesday in an effort to stop the Senate's health care reform legislation.

In a release from his office Monday, DeMint announced he will speak at what is being billed as an "emergency rally" coordinated by several groups, including the American Conservative Union and the Susan B. Anthony List.

"The event has 'tea party' trimmings and plenty of muscle, including grass-roots support from six states," according to the GOP senator's Web site.

Good for DeMint.
It’s good to see somebody staying on top of this.
NEVER let your guard down, and ALWAYS keep in mind that the scumbags to do ANYTHING.

Yea, well, sometimes it’s hard to believe that Staten Island is part of NYC...

I long for secession, but too many worry about the “cost.” I, for one, would pay whatever it took to be disconnected from Bloomberg’s City Hall.

Well, think of it this way: it could be worse; you could be part of New Jersey, LOL.

Waste of tie and energy. The Dems do not care and are not listening. When they say “the majority of Americans want this reform” they are talking out their a$$es and telling us it is happening no matter what we do. Spend the time and energy looking for their replacements. 0 care is a done deal in one form or another.

Lets not have one at the beck and call of any politician. For now the movement is far, far better served by avoiding being controlled by a political party. Even if it would only be in perception.
