Yeah.
I’m wary of making judgmental assumptions, too.
But I agree. It was a wholesale opportune moment—ripe for patriotism, sanity, righteousness, goodness etc. to stand tall.
To sort of start to stand up then to punt and scurry off . . . horrible.
Some are saying—they can come back Monday. I’ll be quite shocked if they do AT ALL. Quite shocked. I’m betting they won’t.
They are tooooo used to putting their personal and the globalists’ goals first before the people and the Republic.
I’m betting they won ‘t too. : ( It’s a bet I’d like to lose.
Then we need to keep the pressure on them. Let’s keep them to their word. Contact those congressmen, tell your friends and family to do the same, and let them know that we will stand behind them for as long as it takes. This is our economic national security at stake here, and it’s about time to do something about this. If they are going to “say” that they’ll stay there until the vote is cast, let’s hold them to it so we know they are serious about this. It’s time to expect more from our representatives and be able to believe what they say, and, let’s not forget, it would make a big impact on conservatives and Republicans all across the country. Look at how excited and jazzed up everyone is after just five hours Republican chutzpah. Show up on Monday, talk all day, and people are going to notice, and then we can get some real momentum.
Let’s see them do that, and then let’s see how we can lend support to them. I know most of us have jobs or seeking to acquire one soon, so we are at a disadvantage to the Democrat masses in the available numbers sense, but how quickly could we organize a joint protest with the Republicans? We wouldn’t all necessarily have to take 5 weeks off from work. Organize it right, and I bet you could find a good number of people (couple thousand at least) willing to donate a couple days over the next five weeks to travel to Washington and sit in the House Chamber (if able) with the Republicans, while they give their speeches or just talk with the attendees about ideas, and have a true “national” town hall meeting. Ball gets rolling just right, and you may have protesters spilling onto the street.
I have no idea how to do this, but it starts with a campaign this weekend to get as many of those representatives back to Washington on Monday.
There’s energy in the air. Let’s take advantage of it.

In fact, and I know this sounds utterly crazy to all but my sleep deprived mind (too energized by today to sleep), but would it be at all possible to get Rush to do a Saturday or Sunday show, even if for just an hour? He already produces a “Weekend Edition” show, so he already has time with stations across the country. The audience may not be as large, but certainly large enough (especially if the media makes mention of it) to command an audience. I know he doesn’t like getting involved in things like this, but something tells me this might be different.
This is truly a chance to make a stand against the Democrats and liberalism on an issue that affects all Americans. For too long we have let them have their way, and right now we can take a stand and demand that they capitulate to us and have the backing of a lot of people who may not have supported us before. We have 25 allies in the House, and we need them to be leaders, but we need to let them know that we will stand behind them. An hour of live Rush on a Saturday to spread the word about the campaign might just be enough to get them back to Washington on Monday.

Remember the letter that they sent to the Prez asking him to call a special session.
And did you see this?
Republicans Rebel Against Adjournment; Pelosi Turns Out Lights
Rep. Mike Pence (R.Ind.), who joined with fellow conservative Republican Reps. John Shadegg (Ariz.) and Ted Poe (Tex.) to keep the House open this afternoon, said that the President was out of town. However, the Hoosier lawmaker quickly added that “I spoke with a key aide and made it clear he should urge the President to call Congress back and deal with the energy crisis.” Pence would not say who the aide was, but noted that the response to his admonition was “very positive.”
