We've melted down Congress' phonebanks, we've written and sent emails and faxes, we've vented our frustrations at townhall meetings for a solid year, we've written our newspapers and blogged about it until we are blue in the face, and yet we've done all of this to no avail.
The time for talking is almost over, but...
There is still time for a peaceful, non-violent expression of AMERICAS ANGER AT THE SOCIALIST/DEMOCRAT LEADERS IN CONGRESS AND AT THAT ARROGANT BASTARD TEMPORARILY RESIDING AT 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVE.
Here's what I propose:
DO they have dedicated emergency lanes? DC motorists will likely end up going there anyhow (not enough cops to watch them all) and clogging them. Then when an ambulance or fire truck tries to get through... nowhere to go. Not on shoulder, not on emergency lane, not anywhere.
Ask the French how this works. They do it all the time.
Earliest they can vote is a good question.
Some say CBO score received starts the 72 hour clock. Others say the CBO scoring was not final and only an estimate and needs to wait to see the full reconciliation bill.
But if CBO scoring/estimate that was delivered today started the clock, then yes the vote would be Sunday.
Still wise to get there Saturday, get on CB/cell phone/nptebook and get organized. Need a website to read instructions from.
Also need huge numbers on the Mall with thousands of megaphones.
The truckers do things like this all the time in France and Germany. It is very effective.
Civilian Federal Police Force for "Disasters and Emergencies"...Camps set up to aid in rounding up people in one these "Disasters and Emergencies"...A "Oh we didn't see that attack coming" from terrorists already stationed in the U.S. to qualify as "Disasters and Emergencies"...A declaration of Martial Law...
and we got a "king"...
Are you talking about this? Russian Professor Predicts End of U.S.
Sounds good to me.
Finally our turn, the hippies other liberal ilk have been doing this for years and they got their way.
Yip Yip Hooray, this will be a beautiful thing to see. A real Martha Stewart moment for sure.
The Big One I’ve been watching for is the US aligning with the rest of the world against Israel. Well, just watch the news...
Doesn’t need to be trucks. Cars work too, if there are enough of them.
100K pedestrian protestors on the mall can be ignored.
100K cars slowly circling the Capitol until it gridlocks can’t be.
Done. Would help if some of you could also ask her to spread the word on this.
Thanks for the link/suggestion SpaceBar.
A few weeks ago, students in Oakland shut down an entire freeway by merely walking onto it to protest high fees (liberal irony).
But just imagine that happening on a national scale. The minute the Slaughterhouse rule is enacted, drive to a parking lot next to a freeway onramp, grab a sign that says This is NOT America anymore! and start walking onto the freeway shoulder. Traffic will eventually slow down, then stop. Walk down the middle of it with your sign held high.
The day the Earth stood still.
Your post gives me hope that we can actually do it, if it gets to the right people!
Keep sending emails/texts/tweets/facebook postings etc on this to all of your trucker family/friends.
“But just imagine that happening on a national scale.”

I can see that! We are acting on a very small scale and need to go national with our protests. Great idea! I’m in.
No more of this ‘Big Gov’t.” cr@p!
Call it: "A Week or Two without Truckers"
I thought about Saturday and/or Sunday, but didn't think there would be enough people on the roads during the weekend, even with the vote and our people going there to really shut things down and GET THEIR ATTENTION.
But Saturday/Sunday would work too if we can't get organized fast enough for tomorrow morning.

Could you please keep this thread running..it is down. Truckers must be notified. Thank you.
Done.
Again, it would help immensely if some of you could also send some emails to Eric & Gary - if you get on their website, they have a contact us page where you can send them a message.
Thanks for the suggestion on this!
We have to stand firm, the IRS agents will be the enforcers, are freedoms will be gone. I have a feeling Obanga & his band of idiots have already prepared for an armed revolution with us!
That's all we can do right now. That and pray.
