The looks on peoples faces stuck at the light, blank, they would not engage, they could care less. The country is on Prozac or worse, The Red Wings, where to go for dinner, it is bread and circus. I was suprised by two tea party gents whose signs were hanging off their belt if you get my drift. A couple of angry libs getting verbal driving by, one a young lady giving us the double bird.
G_d help us.....
The whole country isn’t exactly Michigan.
Thanks for posting this. It made me feel I was there today!
Nothing is impossible, we can still prevail. We must prevail.
Mark for later viewing. Thanks for posting.
No it is not, but in this good neighborhood it will be indicitive of what and who will be in play if the fhit hits the shan. And some of us can’t move that are within 1 hr of some cities that I guess you wouldn’t want to be near if and when it gets out of control...
Oh yuck. How many were there on ourside? Went to dinner last night with the dh and sat next to an african american couple. Overheard him ask her “Do you think the health bill will pass?” she said, “I cant talk about it, it makes me sick” I dont know what he is doing” . I wanted to engage but dh shut me down. lol.
Attended rally at Augusta, MAINE.
First announced 72 hours ago.
200 to 300 people made the event at the state capital.
Lots of hoots and honks.
Thanks for going and for the video Maelstorm. You walk fast!
Thank you for posting. This was near the end of the demonstration. The weather was beautiful — the people were fired up.
At the rally yesterday outside my reps office, lots of African-americans honked in approval.
no offense, but the camera work made me feel like i took the brown acid at woodstock. :) anyhoo, good show!
We got a lot of hoots but the blank-prozacian stares I can’t erase from my mind at this point. So many are asleep.
Yes...it was at the end of the demonstration...I saw video earlier, around noonish and there was a great crowd there. Not to mention many went today to their own capital and their representatives offices...saw some video at those and these were well attended also...all in all we had representation across the country. It was a good turnout nationwide.
Awesome turnout from the looks of it....can you guesstimate about how many were there at all?
Sorry man but an iPhone can only do so well. :-)
Well I got there a little late (I arrived around 1:00) but just in the area I was in there were well over 5k easily that I could see and that is being conservative. I’m just judging it against some of the Palin rallies and it wasn’t as big as any of them but it was a good crowd especially for the last minute and even now people are still walking around with signs. I didn’t see any Obama types. I didn’t notice any antiwar protesters either which was surprising. There was a black guy in a Klan getup yelling about the end of the world.
Nice. Thank you.
The African American doctor of 30 years I protested TURN COAT JOHN TANNER, bribed by a NATO job, said he’d retire..0 may get to the point of having to CONSCRIPT the retired doctors, or import Non-English speaking ones or both.

AIN’T JUST GRANNY & GRAMPS GETTING WHACK, MILITARY IS TOO.
KEEP THE CALLS UP! DC OFFICE LOCAL OFFICE
Hold your own street protest in front of your reps local offices. Or busy street corners. Try and get the local media to cover it. Hammer the Medicare/SS issue, nothing like mad grannies and gramps.
This is from a 2007 contact list of congressional aides. Some might not be there any longer, but worth a try. The ones on the one post are senate aides, a few have bounced back, it’s worth the effort to clog up their email system along with the phones, and 1/3rd of these senators are up for re-election.
Mail must be inspected for anthrax takes 2 weeks, so if you snail mail send a post card
Contact congressional aides.

CODE RED Contact list http://www.nrcc.org/CodeRed/targets/
Remember they are all being offered BRIBES for their votes. Ask them how much their bribe price is.
The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Sunday March 21st.
Good idea from the bloggers at Hillbuzz:
http://hillbuzz.org/2010/03/17/action-items-march-17th-2010/
They offer specifics and links on how to put pressure on Dem DONORS, who have private numbers for legislators who may have taken their phones off the hook.
Congress may not want to hear from us, but they’ll listen to the money men.
Call them and fax them them instead of telling us you don’t trust them.

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.
At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.
When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!
We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE!
