Civil Disobedience
The Publius Forum ^ | March 22, 2010 | Dan Scott

Posted on 03/22/2010 11:40:11 AM PDT by dscott8186

ObamaCare has managed to pass the House of Representatives and it is only a matter of a few days before they complete the package with their reconciliation bill. Those who passed the Law had very little respect for those they claimed to represent given they were unwilling to present themselves and their bill to the electorate in November for their judgment. So cowardly were the bill’s backers for a while they actually contemplated passing the Law without voting on it, however, with their fig leaf of deception exposed they realized such an action would give them no political cover. Obviously filling Washington, DC’s streets with protestors was not effective, neither was vocally opposing ObamaCare at Town hall meetings. Do we quit and give up to let the usurpers have their way? Or do we step up to the next level of expressing our discontent and opposition to this imposed Law against the consent of the governed?

Warning, do not give the liberals a pretext, dissuade anyone contemplating violent acts. The Tea Parties need to lead by getting out front on the public's response to being ignored and treated in such a condescending manner by politicians.

I'm already sick of hearing what a "masterful" job Pelosi and Obama have done with the Health Care Monstrocity.

What the State-run Media (aka the Main Stream Media) will not tell you is that if it was masterful, it was only masterful in its lies, deciet, and treachory. They used trickery, sculldruggery, bribery, threats, and lawlessness to pull this Health Care Vote out by the skin of their teeth...and the battle is still far from over.


The man who despises America

Stupak was not padding to a democrat victory. No the EO deal was the democrat leadership's last ditch gasp to gett the votes they needed...because the vote makes clear that they did not have them before. And Stupak and those listening to him fell for it and will be forever remembered for being duped, bribed, and sashayed into supporting a bill that will use tax payer money to pay for abortion...and ruin the best health care services in the world as they are found in this nation...and enslave our children and grandchildren in debt. I do not know what all they were promised, or threatened with...but you can bet that it had a lot more to it than a rediculous Executive Order which will not stand or be used to stop it anyway.

We have a band of traitors running this country. I know of no other way to state it or express it. That is the truth about Barrack Hussein Obama and those in league with him.They have proven by their words, their deeds, and their stances...for decades...what they are, and now they have punctuated it with this God-forsaken, monstrocity social health care bill, and intend to continue punctuating it with amnesty for illegal aliens, a world-wide socialist cap and trade effort...among many other things. They are marxist ideologs who hate the free market, who hate free enterprise, who disdain the constitution and its attending, foundational principles, who reject freedom and personal responsibility, and who promise the wrteched masses that they themselves have created through dependancy, anything they think they want, so they can amass power to themselves and destroy this Republic, its liberty and way of life, and make it over into a decrepid socialist/marxist state where they and their cronies amass tyranical power unto themselves.

This cannot stand...indeed, this MUST NOT STAND. We must press forward to the elections of 2010 and throw these enemies out with such resounding clarity that it cannot be denied either here or abroad what is occurring. We must do so by turning to the constitution and the principles that are its foundation and then electing only those candidates who swear their allegiance to that constitution and those principles.

Nothing else will do.

If, as a people, we do not turn away from the course these quislings and traitors have set us on, then, as history and God are our witness, we will ultimately be left only with same course our own forefathers were compelled to take...that is, the force of arms, in the hands of citizens and citizen soldiers of this country to route these traitors out.

We are at a monumental crossroads in our nations history. We are on a path to self destruction and the loss of our freedom and way of life. But we have the opportunity to turn off that path and return to the principles that have made America free and prospered her.

Rise up O America, your liberty is calling!

Get involved with the effort to find and support constitutional candidates : RESTORE THE CONSTITUTION EFFORT

Come together with, discuss, and plan activities to take back our Republic at : FREERPUBLIC.COM CONSERVATIVE ACTIVISM

Join a TEA PARTY like our founders, to turn this marxism/socialism around TEA PARTY NATION and, or TEA PARTY PATRITOTS

Stay true to your oath to protect and defend the Constitution at OATHKEEPERS - NOT ON OUR WATCH

Sincerely, and in liberty,

Jeff Head

It’s hopeless. The leftist establishment has the media in their back pockets. Moreover, now with the Islamics funding Fox news, we can expect to have no voice whatsoever.

The left ruled the day in smearing the Tea Partiers and prostestors on the Hill during healthcare. I even watched video of the alleged racial slurs that were said and I heard not one. Of course, the media did not report that. They took the black congressmen’s word that it happened and maligned the protesters.

Standing around in the parks waving flags did a lot of good didn’t it? At least it made me feel good for awhile. But from now on I’ll honk my horn and wave at them as I drive by on the way to the shooting range. Not advocating violence at all but one can sense tell that this is not going to end well.

We should photocopy a Blank 1040 form and in sharpie write across it, “COME and GET it”. Sign it John Galt, and send a copy to every politican that affects you. From the lowly Mayor to the TOTUS.

Since they do not play by the rules why should we sit around and talk till we are blue in the face, I think action and deeds now is what is needed!

Tell me, why should we care about how the media might play it? Why? Will the corrupt MSM ever play anything other than to the liberals advantage?

The day to care about how the MSM might portray things ended last night.

“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” - Thomas Jefferson

I am ready for insurrection, be it civil or violent. Something has got to give to save our republic.

I feel like we’re now in a state of war. I haven’t got my orders yet, and I’m not quite sure who’s in charge. But I think we move out soon.

I was glancing through my kid’s Weekly Reader from grade school. It was all about the anniversary of “the start of the Civil Rights movement.”

Four high school boys that went into a Woolworths to order a cup of coffee at the counter. They said they would keep coming in every day until they got served.

I need to read the entire article. And perhaps look into the history of it to see if this really was the spark of the movement.

Of course they also had the media on their side to build up sympathy and to cause a “movement”.

I’m sick of talking and waiting for a leader to come out of the woodwork to unite us. Don’t think the patriots did that. It’s harder work than that, means small groups coming together in basements and living rooms——and then showing up in the town square—too many to arrest. Starve them of funds—do everything legal in the meantime to restrict the cash flow that funds them.

Might as well protest food stamps by not eating.

Some of us can’t just cancel our insurance policies.
Any other suggestions?
