Not only many events in many places, but many events, many times in many places. We need to repeat these events as many times and in as many places as is humanly possible all across the country for the duration. We need to rally the people to reclaim our God-given Liberty. We’re sick and tired of the liberals, progressives, socialists, Marxists, statists, fascists, etc, who have taken over our government, violated our constitution, destroyed our free-market economy and want to totally destroy our traditional moral society and our freedom, and we’re not going to take it anymore!!
Does the Free Republic contingent have any plans to attend yet like hotels, etc?
I’m thinking more along the lines of a down mummy bag (GI issue) and a tarp. Maybe I get a chance to sleep IN the lincoln memorial.
And I’m 62, BTW
I was thinking of something a bit stronger. :)
Absolutely agreed. Not a march — a MOVEMENT.
Void the bowels of Washington, D.C. 2014 - 2016
Mega BUMP! Thanks, Laz.
Bump.
IMO, number 4, calling off the regulatory agencies will accomplish much of this. It would become obvious how useless and counter productive they are to the nation.
Shutting them down might then be possible.
I guess I'll "out myself" now and state that what you see above is the result of work that's taken about two weeks to come to fruition between a core group of people who are genuinely concerned about the direction of our Government and what it means to our children in the future. I'm certain those same concerns are shared across MULTIPLE grassroots Conservative organizations such as the Tea Party, Concerned Women of America and many others.
There were so many ideas and so much of our "list of grievances" to weed through that we didn't want the above to read like Tolstoy's "War and Peace." We wanted to keep it simple, while painting a mental picture of what's happening to each and every one of us today. I know my friend Laz captured that imagery well. As we spoke yesterday afternoon, number four on our list for example gave me the mental image of hordes of locusts devastating a farm field full of crops.
I personally think Laz did a phenomenal job of summarizing the core group's thoughts briefly and succinctly. It's not often such mental imagery can be painted with so few words.
If you look at our Objectives ("Demands") you will see that they are rooted in the concepts that our Founding Fathers based the origination of our country upon: Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, governed by our Constitution and Bill of Rights.
We believe despite what the current President thinks, our Constitution and Bill of Rights clearly define the Freedom that each and every one of us has in the determination of how we live and conduct our daily lives - free from Government intrusion or interference.
Contrast that to President Obama who has stated on record that he views the Constitution less as restraint on Government intrusion and rather defines through omission what the Government must do for you, on your behalf.
That statement explains the more than 13,000 new Federal Regulations that have been implemented since Obama became President, his views on Socialized Medicine and the resulting "Obamacare" which is Government intrusion into our personal, private lives interfering with the most personal, private decisions families must make regarding their own lives and deaths.
This President believes at his core that a Government Bureaucrat, armed with each one of our financial, medical, and voting records is better suited than you and I are in deciding whether or not we will receive medical care. More peversely, at the very time when we and our families are most vulnerable in our final days.
We've entered 1984 folks. There is literally NOTHING we do on a daily basis that our Government doesn't know about. Last week it was disclosed the NSA collects 200,000,000 text messages a day. I'm willing to bet that number is far, far higher than is being disclosed. Considering more than half the country has a text capable cellphone (including the free Obamaphones I might add!) that's just barely over 1 message per person, per day. 200,000,000? Not likely. 50 - 60 Million? Far more likely.
Some say our Immigration system is broken. I say, our Immigration system is NOT broken - it's being circumvented from working by politicians who refuse to fully fund Border / National Security. Tens of Millions of CRIMINAL, ILLEGAL aliens violating our law DOES NOT MEAN our Immigration System is "broken." It means we have Tens of Millions of CRIMINAL FELONS in our country. We should NOT be rewarding them with so-called "Pathways to Citizenship" (read that "AMNESTY!") and social welfare benefits including free "Obamacare." That simply legitimizes their criminal, felony behavior and encourages more illegals to do the same.
We also know the Keystone XL pipeline for example MUST be completed to improve the flow of oil into our country. Additional refineries MUST be built and Clean Cole technology technology brought to bear in our country. Amongst the WORST Federal Agencies impeding our ability to become energy independent - a key to bringing manufacturing jobs back to America - is the Environmental Protection Agency. It is deliberately and maliciously preventing our country from creating JOBS for Americans through overbearing regulation, inside political corruption, and a "green energy" policy that's proven around the world to be a failure. It's high time the EPA was disbanded!
I could go on for days. Thankfully Lazamataz was able to reign things in and make all the above much shorter, succinct, and understandable.
One last thing: Laz and I weren't alone working on what he published today. There are others. They can choose to "out" themselves or not. That is their decision alone.
Having been active in politics previously, I know the dangers of upsetting the wrong people. Fortunately for me, I'm old enough to really not give a crap what anyone thinks they can turn up on me. I really don't care. Our message is what it is, so long as it resonates with enough American's to begin the process of turning things back to where they should be: the opportunity for Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, then it shall be worth it.
It's time for an American Spring.

*grin* You’re well worth following, Laz!
Thanks for the kind words, and I know you do not underestimate the contribution you and others put in.
WE can do together, what none of us could do, apart.
Thanks hope! :)

I’d like Kristinn on board this thing....He’s got track-record....
Nice!
Right on!
Let's provide our TEA Party candidates who are challenging GOP-e fossils as many state and local marches and forums as we possibly can prior to the primaries in June!
I like that date limit.
Bttt!
