Paul Ryan said today the number isn’t known due to the pressure being put on members of Congress by the Leadership

I posted this on another thread earlier:

I dream just one Democrat waverer will stand up, detail all he’s been through, threatened, bribed etc in order to persuade a “yes” vote then instead still vote NO !

I’m not smoking anything, honest :)

applied for a permit to hold a massive rally at the Capitol on Saturday, 3-21-10 at 12 Noon.

Jon Voight calling for the same thing.

Czech's protesting in August 1968 ?
The Soviets invaded that same month if you remember.

Michele Bachman says the IRS will check monthly to make sure we have ‘acceptable’ insurance. Our confidential tax payer information will be turned over to Health and Human Services. She says it is in the bill.

Yes, she said that on Sean Hannity's FNC show tonight. Outrageous...

Food for thought.....

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

3. Abolition of all right of inheritance.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

5. Centralisation of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.

6. Centralisation of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the State.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State; the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

8. Equal liability of all to labour. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equitable distribution of the population over the country.

10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children’s factory labour in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production.

The above are the ten conditions for transition to communism.........Stunning!

You underestimate the power of the people and of the states.....so you just sit back and watch the show. I will be proud to tell my grandchildren one day of my part in this battle for our country...and of also those who gave up along the way.

You know you really need to go to the back of the tent and let the people who are willing and able to fight do just that. You could at least be supportive of the efforts...I am thinking you are on the wrong site and I don’t care how long you’ve been here.

Well the “rulers” were chosen and the vote put them in office...and to this day I will always hold McCain guilty for his roll of not standing up to Bo when he had the opportunity and the ammunitian to take him down when he ran....there was soooooo much out there about Obama but McCain just smiled and let him off the hook...heck he never even had his line baited!

“Secede...maybe not...War...maybe so.”

I think the time of talk and BS is over it is time to rid ourselves of the entire Congress by force.

Arrest them all including the a$$hole -resident stinking up our White House.

I DEEM this as the only course of relief open.

No - I think he really meant the Amish. (Although your “amish” also is understandable.)

I think the Amish have health insurance through their church - and would still be allowed under this bill (freedom of religion).

There’s nothing on King’s web site that indicates a rally being held (or nothing obvious, at least). Perhaps he’s had second thoughts?

Indeed we are and I feel so guilty that I let it happen. But so did 300+ million other Americans. I can’t live bound by chains. I will leave and just enjoy the rest of my life in peace, in a country where politics and control are not all consuming.
