I’m praying for and working toward our own “General Grant.”

History is filled with ups and downs, wins and losses, and amid the dust and dirt of the fight we’re in, I strongly believe we conservatives will prevail and find our “General Grant.”

That anonymous “conservative” was a Rino. Bet on it.

For a long time to come, conservatives are going to have to critize Rinos. They have to be beaten back and out and replaced. They are doing it to conservatives now that they have power because that is what you do when you are a wing of the party and want control over the party. Socialists like Graham and Snowe and Collins are NOT acceptable.

Good ! We need a rebel in DC and since all the Republican men need a shot of testosterone she stood up and said Get Outta My Way !

The ONLY reason this is being discussed is that the Dems are yellow-belly scared.

[I have to look at this from the perspective of “what if someone on the left did this?”]

I appreciate your sense of decorum and can't say you're wrong. What I can say is that Obama and congressional Democrats have whipped up hatred this year and directed it at Wall Street, Las Vegas, corporate aviation, Tea Party and townhall attendees, talk radio, FOX News, doctors, health insurers, the CIA, and “the wealthy” just to name a few. Obama told a group of bankers that he was the only thing that stood between them and “the pitchforks” of the angry mob.

It is way too late to be polite when the GOP is literally being locked out of this process of the Dims intent on destroying our country.

Obama will visit the Capitol Friday to attempt to undo what happens Thursday:)

You thought you were making a joke.

President Obama will head to the Hill on Friday to rally House Democrats before they vote on his health care reform, a Democratic source tells POLITICO.

A conservative Republican House member, speaking on the condition of anonymity, suggested that Bachmann’s views — and her willingness to state them — make it hard for her to keep staff.

“When your captain’s crazy, it’s time to find a new ship,” the lawmaker said.

Question: When are we going to stop eating our own?

I would lay heavy, heavy odds there is NO basis for this "quote". The use of unnamed sources is a favorite of the libs because it allows them to say absolutely anything.

Bachmann has guts... She has a sharp moral compass and is not afraid to take what ever action is necessary to support what is right and to defeat what is wrong.

We're currently in a war to save our nation. To save our liberty and all that we know to be right.

Bachmann’s action today... inviting thousands of Americans to Washington to meet with their House Members in the “People's House” and tell them what they feel about this destructive piece of legislation, follows the most basic tenant of sound strategic engagement - “bring the fight to the enemy”.

Bachmann, as many like her that are willing to stand up to these Marxist leftist who have taken over our government, is just one more American hero.

An American hero who will be embraced favorably by history as the story is told someday about how the United States of America was saved and brought back from the brink of Marxist/Socialist/Leftists/Progressive totalitarianism and destruction at the hands of the political puppets (Obama, Reid, Pelosi, Frank, Waxman, Schumer, et. al.) of the great manipulators like George Soros, SEIU, ACORN,, etc., etc., etc....

God's speed to all of today's American heroes, fighting the good fight, including Michelle Bachmann.

Well said!

I appreciate so much the effort folks are making on short notice to go to DC.

I have to look at this from the perspective of “what if somone on the left did this?”.

The left IS is doing it. Who do you think sends in union goons to disrupt public meetings, who sends quasi military black goons to intimidate voters in precints, who changes locks on conference room doors to keep out duly elected representatives while formulating a plot to subvert the constuitution etc etc etc.

Don't be naive. Some of us have LIVED through Communist tactics and we know how they operate and we alaso know how to fight back and the ballot is not the only means available.

Fight fire with a bigger fire!!!
