Obama is certainly an evil, anti-American, communist thug, but I don’t believe he can be impeached and removed from office. I don’t believe the RINO House has the guts to do it, and I’m certain the Democrat Senate cares more about their personal power than about the Constitution or the rule of law. It doesn’t matter if Obama abuses the IRS, his followers will love him for it (even though Nixon was impeached for that crime). It doesn’t matter if Obama refuses to enforce the laws on immigration or selected parts of ObamaCare, his followers will love him for it (even though Johnson was impeached for that crime). Nothing matters - it’s Obama and he’s diverse, i.e., immune.

Obama will be in office for three more terrible years, and I pray that America can survive that disaster. We will have a massive, crippling debt when we finally get rid of him. We will have an ObamaCare monstrosity that will be hard to dismantle then unless the House defunds that destructive law now. There will be innumerable other problems if we keep Obama for that long, but I don’t believe we have a choice.

I’d rather focus on reducing the destruction, which can be done, rather than trying for a home run that is destined to fail.

I’m beginning to suspect it’s a honeypot operation.

Oh, good grief. This is a totally grass roots movement of ordinary, pissed off Americans, and Facebook just happens to be the easiest, most well known method of getting people connected for spontaneous events like these.

Got a better way to get it done? Put it into action and stop sitting on your hands.

I'm sure that Facebook is used as a 'list maker' for the gov't.

So is Free Republic. We've all been on 'the list' for quite some time, so it doesn't make a damn bit of difference if you're on Facebook or not.

To my mind : FACEBOOK IS A HONEYPOT !!

And we're all safely anonymous on Free Republic, right?

Also, we need a BETTER way to get the word out on these rallies! I heard about today's rally a few days ago and nothing since. Suggestions are welcome.

I sent an email to Info@Overpasses.org on 8/14 seeking more info for my location. Heard zip.

Y'all need to get better organized. Post the state info on your web site. Quit using Facebook as a crutch.

We attended one in D’Iberville, MS today. About 30 people. I was astounded by the number of middle fingers and yells of “racisists” we got.

Windflier ~:" And we're all safely anonymous on Free Republic, right? "

No ,.. not safely anonymous on Free Republic . I don't need that !
What I do need is a forum to inform , formulate , organize, and express my thoughts ~ ..prior to action .
But I think I know Jim Robinson's core moral values which are in agreement with mine, and
to the best of my knowldege he has not decieved me by intent , misrepresentation , or deception.
That is why I contend that Zuckerberg's contributions to misrepresentive PAC's makes me believe Facebook is a "Honeypot "
That is why I am here , and need to support Jim Robinson and his effort to provide information.
Which reminds me , I need to support him and send him a check !
Thanks for the reminder !!

... nor deserve neither.” ~ Ben Franklin

I’m not interested in following a bigshot in the Log Cabin Republican’s like yourself.

We were heading south of I-75 today, and saw two groups. Honked my my horn several times as we drove under and passed by. Of course, I was the only one doing that.

I didn't know it was going on either, but we were stuck in traffic on I-376 going toward Downtown Pittsburgh, and spotted this:

That may be, but your comment indicated that's what you thought about the Overpasses groups on Facebook.

So, are you interested in joining with those folks in active protest?

Yes , I am interested ..
However , I see it as a Phyrric demonstration as the Congresscritters will never let impeachment happen
On the other hand , it demonstrates to the general citizenry that there is opposition to government over-reach and coercion.

So yes , I am interested !

If you're not a'skeered to visit Facebook, you can find a local group there. Onyx posted the links to all the state groups here, just the other day. You can probably find that thread by searching on the word, 'overpasses'.

And yes, it's something pro-active that we can all do to demonstrate our fury at this administration. Spending one afternoon waving banners with fellow patriots is worth more than ten thousand posts here.
