We need to stop this pig of a bill NOW!

Time to hit the phones again and let our senators think about such freedom-hating legislation.

Dick Durbin sponsored it---need I say more?

I also heard that ObamaCare has in it that if you sell anything over $600 on EBay Craigslist Yard Sale????? Obama wants a cut? Please tell me I heard this wrong? How can Obama regulate this? Will the government watch yard sales all over the country? It is insane!

Dick Durbin’s efforts at promoting an American genocide puts Pol Pot and the Nazis to shame!

I hate to keep posting the same thing over and over but don’t forget the RHINO’s who are supporting and voting for this bill. Our own two moron RHINO’s from GA, Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson are going to not only vote for S.510 they are co-sponsors. Many people in GA are emailing and calling these two idiots but they are so arrogant and so entrenched in elitism it is mind boggling. Isakson just ran practically unopposed and won another term last month so why would he care what the constituency thinks?

If you want to ping on someone call Chambliss and Isakson’s office this morning and give both of them a piece of your mind.

If we don’t have a civil war before this bill goes into effect than the American dream envisioned by the founding fathers is totally lost forever.

Somehow I suspect it will indeed happen and people will sooner murder their own families than turn against dear leader. Within 10 years this nation will be identical to North Korea in every communist way. You can bet on it.

Hmmm. I'm pretty sure my Great Great Grandad didn't survive the Russian Revolution and bring his family to America in a cattleboat just so his progeny could be starved by Bolsheviks less than 100 years later.

CLOTURE VOTE TODAY - The U.S. Senate is expected to vote on cloture today on SB 510 - the so-called Food Safety Bill. They need 60 votes to stop debate and move to a final vote on the bill.

JAIL TIME - This Lame Duck strategy aims to put small farmers and others under heavy regulatory authority with arbitrary penalties that include jail time...all for the stated purpose of protecting our health.

LAST DITCH EFFORT - This bill was defeated in earlier attempts this year but it appears that Democrats aim to protect health by eliminating food freedom and natural health freedom (including open access to nutritional supplements) before Republicans take over the House.

CALL NOW - CCHF has kept this bill in our sights and now is the time for you, our supporters, to take aim and fire.

Contact Congress today.

MORE INFO - The Tea Parties are engaged and our friends at Alliance for Natural Health and Natural Solutions Foundation have more info, including 10 points and email contact links.

Dear Fellow Tennesseans, please help me out here. The vote is going to come up this week. Could be Thursday. Could even be today.

Toll-Free number to the Congressional Switchboard

(866) 338-1015

Our dumb Senator Lamar Alexander is a co-sponsor of this stinking pile of Soviet-era centralized-control-of-the-food-supply $#!+ --- !

Stop Senate Bill 510

TELL SENATOR LAMAR ALEXANDER: WITHDRAW AS CO-SPONSOR

DO NOT VOTE ON THIS DURING THE LAME-DUCK SESSION.

At the very least, have the decency to put off a vote until January, 2011 – so that people can read this and evaluate whether it is a desirable piece of legislation. Do not try to cram this down our throats just like Congress did with the Health Care Bill.

Toll-Free number to the Congressional Switchboard

(866) 338-1015

I MEAN NOW.

The author of this monstrosity is none other than Illinois’ own, Dick Durbin. He has to be stopped and opposition has to be mobilized in his home state.

Similar bills keep coming up. So far we have swatted them all down. We can’t rest now.
