Lib Group to Escalate Efforts against 'Enemies' of Socialized Medicine
Patriot Room ^ | 9-20-09 | Scott Martin

The Dems, with help from MoveOn.org (seriously, move on already) and ACORN plan to mobilize on health care this week. How's this for a "grass roots" effort?

The plan for a series of grass-roots demonstrations Tuesday to promote President Obama's health care agenda calls for tightly scripted events..

Health Care for America Now (HCAN), which is backed by a coalition of labor unions and liberal groups including ACORN and MoveOn.org, organized the protests to target insurance companies and drafted the plan, which describes the demonstrations as part of its "insurance enemies project."

The document, a copy of which was obtained by The Washington Times, details specific talking points, tactics, props and strategies to stage the protests. It lists goals that include action that "mobilizes our base by animating existing anger about private insurers."

The protesters hope to tap into anger at private insurance companies, an interesting strategy considering the fact that 89 percent of Americans who have insurance are happy with their provider...

The hive mind of liberal subversives doesn’t seem to be capable of understanding. They don’t even get it. There are too many of us who object and too many objections to this health care fiasco to provide them with a single target.

Won’t miss Soros when he’s gone.

Keep it up!

We as conservative/independents need to stop thinking and acting in a defensive mode, i.e.(wait until 2010, vote them out of office) we need to strike now, we need to strike hard, quit sitting on the back burner, that's what has gotten U.S. into this mess, we need to start going after impeachment, of all elected officials complicit in the destruction of the U.S.A.

This is a call to arms, this is the LAST LINE OF DEFENSE, we need patriots NOW... who will stand for the constitution OR WHO will wait until 2010...

THE CHOICE IS YOURS...

I agree we need to keep up the pressure but being able to “acronym” the bunch of them won’t happen till 2010. I can’t think of many incumbents that deserve to return.
