ATTN. D.C. BOUND TEA PARTY PATRIOTS: Surround Obama at Cannon HOB at 3 p.m. EDT Today
Saturday, March 20, 2010 | Kristinn

Posted on 03/20/2010 5:42:24 AM PDT by kristinn

According to news reports, Barack Obama is scheduled to go to Capitol Hill this afternoon to lobby the House Democrat caucus to support his takeover of the American healthcare system.

Latest reports show that there are still three dozen or more undecided Democrats.

With Obama traveling to Capitol Hill while thousands of Tea Party Patriots are expected to be there at the same time, the Patriots will have a great chance to bring their message directly to Obama and the Democrats by surrounding them (as best as possible) at the Cannon House Office Building.

From the AFP:

Obama was due to meet Democratic lawmakers in the ornate Cannon House caucus room at 3:00 pm (1900 GMT) Saturday, along with Senate Democratic Majority Leader Harry Reid.

Patriots should plan to start 'surrounding' the Cannon Building at 2 p.m. The Capitol Police will establish a security perimeter, but there's no reason Patriots should not not be seen and heard by Obama and the Democrats.

Please forward this report to Twitter and other sites where those traveling to D.C. today will see it.

If the Democrats’ socialist takeover passes this weekend then I’ll be extremely livid, angry at everyone.

And I know Rush has the power to have brought an additional million of his followers with him to DC which would have stopped this socialist takever this weedend. So yes I will blame him and the other talk show cretins who couldn’t get up off their fat a$$Es to go over there. Although someone said Levin IS going . and if he is then I thank and support him and all the others who are going.

So you say i’m ignorant for pointing this out.

I’m not the issue. I can’t make a difference in anyone’s life. you should be concetrating on those that can make a difference to America, Freedom and to your life, the Democrats, and even Rush, and talk show hosts. you are the one focusing on tearing me down which won’t affect me. so you just wasted your time. oh yeah but I’m the ignorante one. lol

Agreed! You’re a man of action & we appreciate you taking the time/money to go to D.C. and fight on behalf of the American People. We all do as much as we can do, but those who would say “he or she needs to do this or that” when they themselves aren’t taking that action they’re recommending another to take, well that won’t help our cause any.

"I can’t make a difference in anyone’s life."

Great pep-talk there. Just keep a positive mind. If you do that, along with calling/e-mailing & such, you'll make more of a difference than you would have believed.

My point is that you are sure demanding of people whom you have no idea of all the hard work they do behind the scenes. You use their high profile positions as an excuse to spew discontent when you don’t even know the facts.

It is soooo easy to trash someone while sitting comfortably in front of your computer. You must be so proud of yourself!

Yes, you are right. You have to be positive and believe that you can do anything if you believe you can, try, set your mind on it, persist, focus. If you believe you can do something you will.

It is my goal to repeal most government laws so that we have limited government in the U.S.A, so that we have freedom, so that we have government of the people, BY the people and for the people. to accomplish this we must repeal many government laws to dismantle most of these government agencies, create fair international trade on an even playing field, reduce taxes and regulations on businesses, ban unions, ban law suits against companies, deport illegals.

We can do all this through massive peaceful protests that block and disable the city of Washington DC for weeks. This has been done by other people as in Ukraine (the orange revolution), Czechoslovakia(THE velvet revolution) etc..

Talk show hosts like Rush could influence millions of their followers to organize these protests.

I won't let those that insult me get me down. I'll keep trying.

I never let liberals and Muslims do that to me.

Guess here they have more effect cause I take them more seriously and people are smarter in general here.

I agree Rush and SOME of the talk show hosts have done a lot for freedom and for America.

My ideas got ignored and some concentrated on my criticism of some talk show hosts for not going to the protests and so leading millions of their followers there to stop this bill. I guess i made the mistake here of criticizing talk show hosts who many are followers of here.No man is an idol. no man is superior to me. This country was dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Guess these followers haven't heard that or the one Creator say :”You shall have no other Gods before me” ?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/analysis/31580.stm

In the space of just a few weeks in November 1989, the Communist system in Czechoslovakia was brought to its knees. Massive protests on the streets of Prague - often several hundred thousand strong - forced the resignation of the hard-line Communist Party leadership in what became known as "the velvet revolution."

Yes, I'm proud of my posts and my ideas. I don't see anyone else posting solutions on how to fix America. I don't even see Any talk show host saying that either as imo they don't understand how the economy works either like conservative economists like Hayak, Friedman do.

Tell me what solution you have for America? to fix the economy. Tell me what solution these idols of yours these talk show hosts have to fix the economy .

FYI I have freedom of speech. No man is my superior. all men are created equal . no man or woman should be worshipped. no one is above criticism. I can criticize talk show hosts. who are they? I can call it as i see it and I do . that's the way i see it. it's not my intention just to trash someome.and NO ONE has defeated me on these ideas before as i keep debating until the end.

Here are just a FEW ideas of mine:

It is my goal to repeal most government laws so that we have limited government in the U.S.A, so that we have freedom, so that we have government of the people, BY the people and for the people. to accomplish this we must repeal many government laws to dismantle most of these government agencies, create fair international trade on an even playing field, reduce taxes and regulations on businesses, ban unions, ban law suits against companies, deport illegals.

Worthy cause, thanks to volunteers who are taking the time and absorbing the expense to demonstrate a presence in DC, a place that is truly a world apart from the heartland of American values and completely out of touch with the folks that make the country work. Good job well done.

1st, I never said you were not a patriot. I merely pointed out the fact that in-fighting because ytou think someone should be doing more when in fact you have no idea just what they are doing behind the scenes only gives cause for flaming a discord within the fight to regain control back in DC.

2nd, you don't need to point out ANYTHING about Czech to me because I was directly affected by that communist regime. My family fled it and we now only have limited salvaged family genealogy records because much was destroyed by the commies.

We can fix this mess by voting in real patriots who will stand beside the constitution, uphold their oaths and get government off our backs and let capitalism reign free. We need to get govt, state & federal, back in the ‘constitutional box’ that they belong in.

So let's go forward and remember NOT to trash anybody, we must stand beside each other. We are all equal in the eye of God. We all have a contributions to make and each contribution is not measured by wealth or fame, but by the spirit in which it is made and that spirit is:

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

The founders didn't sit and berate each other, they stood before their Creator. They stood unified and until we ALL stand with that same conviction, this movement will remain broken and fictionalized.

Turns out the rally was moved from Senate Park to the front of the Capitol. Estimated 25K turned out.
