    On Tuesday, Pennsylvania voters chose seven new judges to her “higher courts.” Six of the seven winners in Tuesday’s races for Supreme, Superior and Commonwealth Courts were pro-life judges. Only one Democrat won in those three major races where seven critical seats were filled in Pennsylvania’s “high” court system. Pennsylvanians are no longer just throwing things at their television screens in frustration, but they are taking their frustration to the ballot box and the streets. On Tuesday, conservatives had great wins at the ballot box. Those wins in the higher courts of our Commonwealth cannot be downplayed by supposed Democratic...

    I returned just a few minutes ago from the House Call II rally at the grounds of the US Capitol, held by Reps. Steven King and Michele Bachmann, who were joined by other GOP reps. There was a much smaller crowd than was there Thursday, but many who were from states close to the DC area turned around and came back.

    Thousands of grass-roots conservatives streamed to Capitol Hill Thursday, heeding a call to action from Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.), who decided that speaking out was better than staying silent about the Democrats’ health care bill. A steady stream of protestors toting signs reading “Kill the Bill,” “Free Healthcare Isn’t Free” and “No Obama Care” gathered at the West Front of the Capitol for the noontime “House Call” event. As the crowd swelled, so did the ranks of Republican lawmakers, many of whom ended up joining Bachmann on the stage. Bachmann announced plans for the rally – which she called a...

    A freshman Democrat on Thursday said that Republican lawmakers' attendance at the "House Call" protest was "the saddest thing I've seen here."Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.) chided GOPers from skipping out on official House business, including the swearing in ceremony for a special election winner. He made his comment on Twitter:W/few courageous exceptions, GOP caucus walks out en masse as 2 new members (dems from specials) are sworn in. Saddest thing I've seen here.Former Lt. Gov. John Garamendi (D-Calif.) was sworn in this afternoon on the House floor. Garamendi replaced former Rep. Ellen Tauscher (D-Calif.) who took a position at the...
  • Olbermann to 'House Call' Organizers: Pay 'Some Black Faces, Some Brown Faces' to Attend

    Leave to a brilliant mind like Keith Olbermann, who finally decided to show his face on live TV after Nov. 3's Democratic defeat, to throw a temper tantrum about the public display of opposition to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's that occurred on the west lawn of the U.S. Capitol on Nov.5. After Olbermann and Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson all but declared Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., organizer of the "House Call" event, an enemy of the state, they predictably came to the conclusion the event was racist. However to overcome that hurdle, Olbermann suggested organizers "pay" minorities to...

    Dear Doggett constituents, A few days ago, Congresswoman Michelle Bachman (R-M) asked that “the people” show up (for an emergency “House Call”) in Washington D.C. on Thursday 11/5/09. There will be a press conference and then the people should go see their Congressman eye to eye about the Healthcare bill that will be voted on either Friday or Saturday. Yesterday 11/4/09 I spent an hour with Congressman Doggett's Staff Assistant Lee Ann. Please call his Austin office in the next 2 days 512-916-5921. If you agree with the things I said you could just take a minute and say, “Tell...

    House Republicans and tea party protesters spent the summer and much of the fall in an awkward mating dance, with neither group too sure it wanted to embrace the other. But they consummated the relationship over the weekend in New York’s 23rd Congressional District, and they’ll come together Thursday in Washington for a coordinated assault on the Democrats’ plans for health care reform. The idea took flight last week, when Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) told Fox’s Sean Hannity that she hoped all of his viewers would join her for a press conference outside the Capitol on Thursday and then walk...

    In another era, it was Paul Revere red flagging patriots with the immortal words, “The British are coming!”. Until patriots arrive on Congress steps Thursday at noon, it’s “We the People are coming!” The courageous, Paul Revere like call to action is from bottom liner Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, who wouldn’t let Democrats—who changed the locks on doors against the opposition—keep her from turning the tide on the countdown to Obamacare. Waiting on the Congress steps will be radio talk-show giant, bestselling Liberty & Tyranny author and beloved American folk hero Mark Levin along with “Midnight Cowboy”, “Obama-is-the-false-prophet” crusader Jon...
