We were a little late getting to the airport and then drove around a bit looking for the TEA party group. Couldn't find them. Saw a group of peaceniks protesting Obama and was tempted to join them, but drove on. Saw four or five groups of civilians standing around waiting to pay homage to their king, but no obvious protesters other than Peace Fresno. Finally spotted a group of adoring Obama fans with an empty spot nearby, not a parking space, but a space just large enough for our van. So asked Chris to pull over and leave the ramp down as if we were loading/unloading.
I asked Chris to write "Obama Lied!" on a signboard and bring it out to me after I joined the group. I rolled over to them and then Chris brought me my sign and I sat innocently with my back to the group for a little while.
No one noticed me at first. I spotted a guy right behind me who had "USMC" on the back of his hat, so I greeted him with, "Semper Fi!" He turned and shook my hand, then saw my sign and instantly turned back to the crowd.
I then shouted out, "Obama lied and people died!!"
Now, that started a commotion. Soon had quite a dialog going. Told them Obama lied about everything. Said he lied about Benghazi. Lied about the IRS. Lied about health care. Lied about if you like your policy you can keep it. Lied about if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor. Lied about ending the wars and bringing all the troops home. Asked them how they liked being lied to. They said everyone lies.
Told them they were suckers, Obama is a communist. They said, so? What's wrong with that? I noticed they had several children there and asked them how they're going to like paying all the debt Obama's running up. They were horrified. I don't think they've ever been exposed to anyone questioning authority. Poor children have never been exposed to the constitution, the founding principles, Truth, patriotism, etc. They've been force fed the Marxist lie since birth.
At one point, one big guy told me he'd like to shove my words down my throat. Now ain't that special. I pointed out that that is the Marxist way. Someone says something they don't agree with and they immediately jump to violence.
I told them they were suckers for free foodstamps, free Obama phones, free healthcare. One big black guy said something to the effect that Obama was doing all this for our own good and at least now I can get free health care. Told him I work full-time, pay my own way and don't need or want his "free" health care. Then told him, but at least you can now marry your boyfriend. He told me that was none of my business.
Now we finally have a point we can agree on. None of this is any of the federal government's business.
But I think the significance of that final point was lost in the shuffle.

It’s very nice that the new monthly sign-ups are picking up the pace a bit. I’m not sure if we’re going to beat our high point
from when the NMD challenge first started, but we’re doing all right considering the state of the nation and the economy.

Hey, Jim....I just posted a notice of your CA freep on the Florida state forum with a reminder about the freepathon.
You were boldly on the front line in your trusty wheel chair right there in the midst of the Obama zombies, cultists, peaceniks, takers and creeps.
The photos of you and your hand-made sign in the midst of the Phillistines tells it all.
Freepers, join Jim on the front line with a donation of any size....you'll be standing RIGHT ALONGSIDE HIM even though you're not there in a physical presence.
Fellow freepers, post your own brief comment on your own state FR forum. You know your people....ask them to join a week-end push to get this freepathon successfully over the top. Our state forums are such an effective way of communicating with each other....and I consider my wonderful Florida state forum a great boon and blessing in my conservative activities and work.
I'm sending another contribution to the freepathon in a few minutes...and already I'm feeling a good glow. Please go and do thou likewise....freep the creeps as Jim does right on the battlefields with a donation for the maintenance and continuance of this site...a site which also helps maintain our sanity in these crazy times!
