My Fellow Americans,
When King George III of The British Empire had concluded his French and Indian war in 1763 he lacked to funds to pay for the costly event. His answer was to impose tax after tax on the colonies of America. He started confiscating their monies by taxing every activity of life and creating government subsidized monopolies on everything from courier services to tea. The King wanted to control every aspect of American life and bring as much money into the government coffers as possible.
We are, as I write this post, a mere six hours away from the United States Senate will vote on Cloture that begins a water fall effect to bring about government run health care by Christmas day. A move that will put the government literally in the business of valuing life, deciding how much you should weigh, and forcing you to pay for health care in order to be a citizen in good standing.
This is not the first, and certainly will not be the last power grab of this congress or presidential administration. They have consistently over reached their constitutional authority and shrugged their collective shoulders when called on it. Those of us that have written letters, emailed, called, marched, picketed and questioned in town hall meetings what authority our federal government was using have been laughed at and mocked. We have been ignored.
When President Bush forced through a mammoth bank bailout for some of the most powerful institutions on the planet We The People objected that we did not have the authority or the resources to do so, but no one listened. When President Obama pushed through the government takeover of those institutions and several others We The People said no, and the liberal Lame Stream Media mocked us. These events led to CNBC correspondent Rick Santelli calling for a TEA Party from the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The TEA Party movement was born on February 27, 2009.
Over the last year we have done everything we can to get the attention on the Washington DC Proletariat that thinks they can rule over us and thumb their nose at the founding fathers and our founding documents. They are not listening. They have continued to spend and encroach on our rights and freedoms by passing EPA regulations calling our very breathe a dangerous threat to the world, spending without regard to the hazards, driving our dollar below that of third world countries and now taking over one sixth of the economy and forcing all of us into taxation slavery.
My friends it is time for all of us to stand together, to unite the movement and make a stand that shows those in Washington that we will not forfeit our freedoms to become slaves in a Socialist social experiment that We The People do not want. This is why we are calling the National Day of Strike action for January 20, 2010, the one year anniversary of the inauguration of Barack Obama. We The People are the engine of the American economy. We are the genius of the American way of life. We are the host of the parasites in Congress that provide the life blood of tax revenue for an irresponsible and unresponsive organism that only seeks it's own growth and well being.
The National Day of Strike-We The People Strike Back is an act of civil disobedience that is necessary to show our out of control government that we are serious about reigning in their un-constitutional confiscation of our finances, our freedoms and our rights. On January 20, 2010 We The People will strike at the life blood of that parasitic congress by denying them the tax revenue for one day. We will not work. We will not shop, or buy anything that is taxed. We will not renew any licenses, tags, file any government filings and we will not remain silent. On This day we will fire a shot across the bow of Congress that we rule them not the other way around.
These are times that try men's souls my friends. I have not in my life time seen a more hell bent move to take our great nation to the extreme left. We are lurching toward Marxism and Socialism and we are being led there by the very people who swore to uphold the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic, yet they are the enemies. We cannot sit idly by and allow what so many generations of warriors and patriots have sacrificed their lives to defend.
Please help us grow this event across organizational, party or geographical lines. Now is the time for us to all stand together. We need leaders and organizers in every state of the union. More details will be coming out this week. UNITE THE RIGHT TO WIN THE FIGHT. For Freedom, Allen Hardage National Operations Director
Lizvetta makes some kind of drink that sound fun. Can she come too? LOL
Great! Diana in Wisconsin wants to do step aerobics with some booze in her free hand, as well.
What? Exercise? A pox on you!
Vendome, have you mixed up one of my pometinis yet?
OMG! I just proposed this on another thread! For the same week! ROFLMAO!!!!
“did they ever teach you guys about sedition?”
He wasnt being seditious, he was talking about defending the constitution from a revolutionary socialist party. BIG difference. The sedition in the papers,,, is happening BY the government.
The date I’ve seen is April 15, tax day. But something sooner would be better. The 9/12 trip was a big expense for most. Maybe the local Tea Party chapters that have sprung up could organize bus transportation. We wouldn’t have to worry about hotel bills if we’re camped out on the lawn...LOL
I am leaving for Palm Springs in the Morning and that would be a great drink. ‘Cept I wuz juz diggin’ foh it and can’t find the post.
Can your forward it again?
The crowd will be perfect for the drink.
Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Socialists Raus!.
Not a very encouraging collection of patriots on this particular thread tonight as another huge nail gets pounded into the coffin of our freedom and the Constitutional republic that should oversee it. :(
2 parts Pama or any pomegranate liqueur
1 part vodka (or pomegranate infused vodka)
1/2 part Grand Marnier or Cointreau
Wish I could be there....:)
Then how does that square with statistics which suggest as many as 1/3 of Texans support secession, at least theoretically? If being “American” meant hunting down your neighbor SS-style for resisting the imposition of unconstitutional laws, do you really think your fellow Texans would put up with that? I hope not. Many of us are looking to you to help lead us out of this mess. Nullification first; secession only if absolutely necessary. I know it’s hard to imagine it happening right now, but when push comes to shove, please don’t let us down.
There is no hope for the dolts who believe politicians can control global temperatures but thankfully their numbers are shrinking. The commie pigs will keep trampling on our rights if we don’t take a stand and force them to stop. They are testing us and we are failing so far.
Most of us in every state would say that about ourselves. We're referring to the free country designed by our forefathers who wrote a Constitution to guide us and protect our rights.
We will not accept a Socialist, Communist, Marxist American and I suggest that Texans won't either.
One day is not enough. Strike until they hear us!
amazing isn't it....
everyone sit by complacently.....everything will be ok......
Yeah, those crazy founders of ours, seditious one and all. Imagine breaking from the lawful authority of King George over something as trivial as the emergence of a bona fide tyranny.
I have always stated these same thoughts to all. Whether retired or not, what if we ALL had tax deductions from our income halted? My accountant said that if you even claimed nine, and broke even in the end, there would be no penalty nor could the IRS do anything about it. If you didn’t pay until midnight of the 14 of April, as long as your responsible amount was paid, you would be fine. The IRS confirmed. This would hurt more if for one whole YEAR, everyone did this. Naturally we would have to be responsible and have this money ready to pay up, but the government would be hurt drastically and forced to cut back the perks and non-essential staff... think about it.
I guess like me you're too young to remember the Wilson administration, or the FDR administration, or the Johnson administration.
Better way for Atlas to shrug is to continue to work but stop spending on anything but essentials.
There ar e10,000 like minded groups out there all acting on their own. We need to have a meeting of the tribes and all get on board for ONE STRATEGY regardless of individual groups agendas . We need someone with some clout to approach RUSH , LEVIN < BECK and others with the idea of a national strike. The time is long past TALKING about the problem. Where is the conservative version of George Soros? We need a billionaire to fund the revolution as well.
