LiveBlogging the Anti-Obamacare Blowout in St. Charles, MO– STANDING ROOM ONLY!

Gateway Pundit ^ | March 10, 2010

[Second Amendment First]

PACKED HOUSE——
They were expecting 600…… 1,800+ SHOWED UP TODAY!
UPDATE:—- New Count— 2,225 TURNED OUT TODAY!!

An overflow crowd turned out today at 9:45 AM to attend the “Kill the Bill” rally today in St. Charles, MO

Republican Lt. Governor Peter Kinder told the fired up crowd– “We have just begun to fight!”

** The Anti-Obamacare Health Care Rally at St. Charles Convention Center (map, directions, parking) is on.

Jamie Alman from 97.1 is emcee today at this “Kill the Bill” rally!

The Wednesday Rally called by Rep. Todd Akin & GOP House Leader John Boehner is the federal-healthcare equivalent of “The Gunfight at the OK Corral” for Missouri!

We need ALL HANDS ON DECK, and ALL BOOTS on the Ground!! If you can take time off work, if you can leave your children or elderly parent with a sitter (or bring them)…if you can at all make this rally – DO IT!

This may be it! Pelosi is trying to bring this to the floor for a vote in the coming days…and is strong-arming all the moderate dems into voting for Obamacare Socialized Medicine – and Federally Funded Abortion. In a “nuclear option” procedure that was never intended for major social mandates, Nancy & Harry…and Leader Obama – clearly intend to disenfranchise well over half of the American People!

This is despite the fact they themselves condemned this same procedure a mere few years ago!

These people are FIRED UP!

Several Missouri politicians spoke out against the Obamacare bill at this public rally. President Obama is locking the public out of his staged rally later today across town in St. Charles.

I was unable to make it there today, so I'm thrilled by the turnout. Only 400 will be permitted into Barama's speech this afternoon, probably all union members.

Wow, this is great news! Go Missouri. Wonder if you will hear about this on the news?

[Second Amendment First]

For your Missouri ping list.

Obama was here a few weeks ago shilling for Senator Bennet. He hired two smallish venues and couldn't even fill them. Less than a year ago he turned people away from Mile High Stadium (OK, if you're picky “Invesco”), but today can't fill our small rock concert venue.

OPPORTUNITY ALERT!!!!

If the Republican's REFUSE to vote FOR the reconciliation bill (which is THE Bill which would revoke the Federal Funding for abortion) AND, by some tactic, Federal Funding for Abortion were to sneak through to law - Is this then the following opportunity???

My understanding is that the first 3 years of the new legislation are a time of Taxing without actual funding of health care. This would mean that no Federally funded abortions would actually take place UNTIL AFTER THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. This would mean that THE NEXT Presidential Election WOULD BE A REFERENDUM ON FEDERAL FUNDING OF ABORTION. i.e. Until Obama is removed from office, he will veto any attempt to remove Federal Funding of abortion, therefore his replacement is necessary to avoid the veto.

Comments PLEASE

Tonight, he is having a fund raiser for Sen. McCaskill, who is not on the ballot this year. Robin Carnahan, Sec. of State, daughter of Sen. Widder Carnahan, is running for Kit Bonds seat but she is not in town for the presidents speech. I wonder why?

This is the one Rush was talking about. Barama will speak at the local high school this afternoon. It will end in time to screwup traffic on I-70 during rush hour when he heads for the airport.

" Until Obama is removed from office, he will veto any attempt to remove Federal Funding of abortion, therefore his replacement is necessary to avoid the veto."

I.E. It then becomes a "Save the Babies!!!" campaign against Obama.

[I know this cure sounds harsh, but I didn't vote for Obama. And I know that a majority Democratic Congress and Democratic President will always try to Federally Fund abortions. A strong message from the American public needs to be sent for the future and I can think of no better message than a National referendum with this as a major, if not the major, issue.]

she is not in town for the presidents speech. I wonder why

In most of the photos it looked like Senator Bennet had a death in the family when he was with Barry. I guess in a sense he did.
