Tea Partiers Scramble to Keep Up With Obama Health Care Blitz
President Obama has set an aggressive schedule for completing work on the bulk of the year-in-the-making health care package and may be getting the jump on the raft of Tea Party events set for the coming weeks.
With President Obama hitting the throttle on health care reform, Tea Party opponents are reaching for the emergency brake.
But will they be too late?
The president, who just two months ago said that jobs creation would be Washington's No. 1 focus, has set an aggressive schedule for completing work on the bulk of the year-in-the-making health care package -- and he may be getting the jump on the raft of Tea Party events set for the coming weeks.
The Tea Party Express, a state-by-state caravan of conservative activists, won't kick off until March 27. The next major set of rallies is on Tax Day, April 15. A number of Tea Party groups are planning anti-health care bill town hall meetings, but the bulk of them aren't expected until later in the month.

It looks like SEIU has the schedule “in hand”.
No taxation without representation.
Freaking cowards...they don’t want to face us...if we could start a “Let’s Roll” campaign with local conservatives and go to DC and shut er down...NOW...make em think REAL hard about what they are doing...then send in the troops on the 15th as planned...I’ve heard some of them say it’ll be done by the end of the week...how many of us live in driving distance? ASAP...
He should have synched with the congressional leaders before "setting" his "aggressive" schedule.
Obarry doesn't seem to understand the President's role in law-making... and I think even some Dems are starting to get annoyed.
“Obama is putting his back into the latest, and perhaps final, push for a health care package”

It looks like the ONLY “final push” is the one that passes this thing. :(
yesterdays fake protest at a Washington DC hotel shows BO is still trying to create the BIG LIE impression that Americans want his bill to pass.
Tea Partiers, let’s keep up the pressure.
You mean the Fuhrer’s Gestapo?
Goebbel’s is dead, isn’t he??? Maybe not.
I was thinking SS ! :)
This article is a crock.’Events’ aren’t going to change the public’s opinion that they don’t want this healthcare fiasco. Obama could zip around and talk to union cronies like Superman and that still won’t change the fact that the American people do not want him sticking his nose in their healthcare. Crummy premise.
You’re on to the sinister and treasonous truth. Spread the truth around to your friends, email associates, the world. This thug Administration and this Congress declared war upon the American people. That should be evident by now for everyone with a brain cell working to see.

Perhaps they label us as “stupid” because we know the truth.
our local Tea Parties have set up a Rapid Reaction chain.
For example, a bunch of them are headed to DC right now because of a rumor Pelosi was going to try and sneak the vote in tomorrow.
The proper countermeasure for SEIU thuggery:

Just make thousands of posters of THIS:
Nancy Pelosi --- "We have to pass the Healthcare Bill so you can find out what's in it."
