We lost this battle for now, so where do we go from here?

On Mar 22, 2010, at 7:05 AM, karin@dcworksforus.com sent me an E-mail that complemented the blog post I was working on perfectly. I combined her e-mail with a partial post and got exactly what I wanted to say. I will start by saying some of you may be thinking of giving up. If so, look at an American Flag, think about George Washington who lost 3/4ths of the battles he commanded in the Revolutionary war. Did he or his troops just quit? I will go a step further and warn you that if you give up, I will sick my pet leopard on you so don't even go there!!!! Trust me, she leaves scars when she scratches. So, now that we remember that this a war and last night was just one skirmish in one battle and there is still a huge fight ahead, what's next?
Fellow Americans,

1) Where we are at and 2) what we can do about it, nationally and locally:

1) They did it. They passed it.

Town Halls in August...they didn't listen.
1.7 Million people in Washington DC in September...they didn't listen
Phone, Fax, Emailing......they didn't listen.
Blogging....they didn't listen
More rallies, up until yesterday...they didn't listen.

Instead, we have heard the first shot at us, as Americans, not while we
are confronting the most powerful empire of the 18th Century, not on
Lexington Green but from within the halls of Congress last night.

Instead, the very personal freedom of our nation has been attacked, not by
the air by enemy forces of Japan while our ships are in Pearl Harbor, but
by Congress last night for all of us to see on CSPAN.

Instead, our financial structure has been attacked, not by JihadistMuslims who hijacked four planes on September 11, but by the vote heard
round the world when Congress, last night, has determined to destroy our
failing economy by placing a much larger tax burden on its citizens, all
the while taking away our freedom of control over our own persons and that
of our families.

2) What are we going to do about it?

1) Continue to call your Representative's office in DC, ask for the
scheduler and book a Town Hall for when they return to your District. We
will not go away. They will still hear from us.

2) They needed 216 votes. They obtained 219. It came down to 4 votes.
Currently, there are 4 Congressional Districts without Representatives.
Taxation without Representation.

Nationally, we need your help to obtain one more Conservative vote as thevery next election is April 13th. I am not kidding. Every vote matters
in this insane Congress. Email me that you will commit the next three
weeks to get Edward Lynch into office.

3) This week, conservative candidates running for Congress, who have
stepped up to plate to run against the current traitorous Congress, are on
a national deadline to obtain 4,000+ petitions to get their name on the
ballot. Find out who your conservative candidate is in your District,
call them up and help them obtain those petitions. That will save the
conservative movement $4,350,000. That is money we can use to
effectively fight against thee Progressives.

You decide, $4,350,000 to get conservatives on the ballot or to fight
against the Progressives who have set out to destroy our country.

4) Get in the game. How many of you are still reading and forwarding
emails? Get to your local Republican Executive Committee. There is no
patience for Democrats. Few Blue Dogs held the line. Stupak's block
should be tried as traitors. Let that be a lesson to us, there is no room
for compromise. Help the party that held the line.
How many Independents held the line in Congress? None. That translates
to no third party this year. You want to save your nation or do you want
to make a new sandbox to play in and be ineffective. Get in the game. Do
not waste your vote? Besides, in the primary, Independents have no say.

So what can we do next on the national scene to show them that by winning a battle, they have escalated this non-violent war and we will not simply lay down because the Botoxinator and "naked dead fish" Rahm bought a bunch of votes. Think about this one: if we keep up this kind of pressure or even better, ratchet up the pressure, the scumbags will run out of things to promise...or Pelosi will have to promise her botox dialysis machine and her skin will fall off revealing her inner Cylon.
Last summer, 2-3 million of went to DC for a day. That and all the tea parties and town halls weren't enough.
That was how the antiwar protestors started too, but when that didn't work, they went to DC and stayed hence the term "sit in." We need enough people to go to DC and surround Capitol Hill so they don't get in our out without "our courtesy." The 60s antiwar protestors put DC on lockdown for an entire summer. It got so bad, it made LBJ decide not to run for a second real term as President. If we coordinate with all those going to see Beck and Oreilly, or all the leaders that joined Karin to visit Michael Steele, people could go for a week and rotate in and out. I camped out in my front yard for 2 months after Hurricane Ivan. That was to protect my place from looters and we had no power so it was more comfortable. I believe a "sit in" is the only way that I can think of to make a bigger statement to politicians that this ain't over until they repeal the bill without resorting to unnecessary violence. When the part of this law calling for people to either buy insurance or go to jail, I will be the first one there as I will
never so much as lift a finger because Obama says I have to.

We can all keep up the battle locally as well:

Tonite: All of us Conservatives are going to Broward Republican
Executive Committee to show we are ready to get into the game. Meet
tonite at Sheraton Suites, 6:30 sign in as it starts at 7:00pm. Located
at Cypress Creek Road and Andrews Avenue. Look for each other there.

DC Works For US meetings in Boca and Dade County are tomorrow, March 23rd,
Go to
www.dcworksforus.com for locations and time. Get in the game.
