It's On and IT'S MASSIVE– "Kill the Bill Rally" In DC! …Update: Mark Levin at Rally (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Thursday, November 5, 2009, 11:55 AM
Ed Schultz sends these photos from the steps of the US Capital—–
** CSPAN 3 has a live video stream from the rally.
Truth Czar Rep. Joe Wilson is currently speaking. There are a number of conservative Congressmen and women standing on the Capital steps speaking to the crowd.
…Where are the crowd shots?
FOX News has a report on the rally– So far no official number:
As a crowd of protesters shouted “kill the bill,” House Republicans on Thursday rallied opposition against the Democrats’ health care legislation, decrying the bill on the steps of Congress in a last-ditch bid to derail or at least delay the legislation heading toward a possible vote Saturday.
Thousands of protesters arrived by bus for the rally, which the GOP is calling an emergency “House Call.” The event drew the conservative “tea party” activists but unlike past rallies was officially sanctioned by House Republicans.
Republicans want those who attend to track down their elected representatives in Congress and put pressure on them to think twice about voting for the more than $1 trillion health care overhaul pushed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
“They’re going to listen,” said Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., who originally called for the rally. “The biggest voice in the United States is your voice.”
Republicans are formally unveiling their version of a health care reform bill Thursday.
UPDATE: Conservative leader Mark Levin speaks to the fired up crowd:
Wow!… The audience was wild for Mark.
More… American Power has Jon Voight’s speech to the patriots.

Great sign, great crowd. God Bless them all, I wished I could have been there.
Chronos71 commented:
AWESOME!!!
Can you hear us NOW????
Aitch748 commented:
Good start. Now get the protesters inside the Capitol. Maybe somebody with a sign and an attitude will find his way into Nancy Pelosi’s office.
LL commented:
Bravo to those who not only talk the talk, but walk the walk.
And we are 12 months away from fundamental change in Congress. (great sign).
These RINO legislators and unrepresentative representatives have time to continue to honor themselves — but not that much time.

Seen Rep Aiken on C-Span last night; great presentation on the healtcare bill. He was somewhat nicer than Joe Wilson. Is that “not the truth” still a lie.
Then Grayson almost in tears (gag) lies.
Joel Raupe commented:
Fantastic. Another week’s notice, and I could have been there. Thanks to everyone who managed to pull it off.
Take note, Congress. A vote for the House bill is a career decision. It’s a suicide pact.
It is a vote in favor of slavery.
Mr K Obermann commented:
looking at the pictures I see 1, 2,……..what? 10 people in all…….??

This is great!!!! Wish we were there!!!

Hopefully they get enough people there to circulate and certify recall petitions. Several hundred of them.

Thanks for your efforts Jim … You are the new news service.
Dante commented:
The major news outlets aren’t covering this…I wonder why? Hmmm.
I wish I could be there.
Not sure if this will make a difference though. Congress is set on their HELLthcare bill and raming it down the American peoples throats.
One year till they will be gone!
Scott commented:
Much gratitude to Michelle Bachman and all the patriots who made the trip on such short notice to try to kill this destructive legislation.
LA commented:
It’s On. It’s Massive!
What? Three pictures of maybe 100 people? You know, there is software that can make it LOOK like more. This looks pretty pathetic.
jb commented:
I can’t wait until next November, when the “we” can elect another career politician or lawyer to tell us/me what we can or cannot do.
I can’t wait. Take that back–when a mass of true (emphasis “true”) Americans actually storm the joint, and literally throw the bums out, I’ll be there and re-enter the “system,” so to speak. Simply exchanging one idiot for another via the God-Almighty “vote” is merely the working version of the old definition of insanity.
Pessimistic? No! I am positive this regime in DC will collapse, but not because of a march and signs and all of that.
It will take far more than that, and America is not ready for that step yet. Rail on me if you will, but you know it is true.
Test:
Q: Which politician has pledged himself (and followed through) to opposing every single redistributive scheme hatched by Congress?
A: None. Not one.
Ah, well . . . Me? Been fighting this war way too long. The people have to use THEIR nuclear option, and, well, that means the kiddies and the cars and the TV and puters and comfy couches might no longer exist.
Our founders were willing to do that, but we as a nation are nowhere near there yet. Just elect the right person . . .
Yeah . . . sure.
So I just watch the show.

Well, the whole ACORN machine can come through and reverse the polls when focused on a single congressional district, but I don’t think they can accomplish the same over the scores of districts they will need to defend.

Look at the signs! They’re supposed to look hand-made but they’re mass produced and are identical.

10,000 Rally at Health Care “House Call” on the Hill
[Over 10,000 people have shown up so far to raise their concerns about the health care discussions currently under way. We are halfway in the middle of the crowd and can barely see podium with all the signs, people, and flags. These protesters are fired up.

Republican Leader John Boehner writes Speaker Pelosi’s Government-Run Health Plan Will Require a Monthly Abortion Premium.
“House Speaker Nancy Pelosi predicted Thursday she will have the votes to pass the Democratic healthcare bill by Saturday. … The statement, however, is a tacit acknowledgement that she doesn’t have them yet,” the Hill reports.
In The Madness of Queen Nancy, the Wall Street Journal’s John Fund writes: “It reminds me of Major Nicholson, the obsessed British major in the film ‘Bridge on the River Kwai,’” one Democrat told me. “She is fixated on finishing her health care bridge even as she’s lost sight of where it’s going and what damage it could cause to her own troops.”]
THANK YOU TO ALL WHO COULD
MAKE THE RALLY!! (thumbsup)
many thousands more who could not be

Too funny.
I run the danger of being labeled a “troll” because I seem argumentative, but consider . . .
The GOP is NOT fighting “health reform”–they just presented a cheaper version. $60 Billion or so. Gee, that’s real “conservative.” ONLY $60 billion dollars. Thanks guys, for being so thrifty with OUR money.
There is nary a thing in the Constitution, despite Burris’ BS, that empowers Congress to do any of this. The GOP is Dem Lite. Or, just plain “dim.” If they were truly “limited government and pro-rights,” this would have been over months ago, while Pelosi would be back in SF licking her wounds at Fisherman’s Wharf over a $300 meal.
Beck (Billy) is absolutely right. The ‘enlightenment” has given way to the “Endarkenment.” Those who should get it, are marching around with signs imagining they are accomplishing something. Like what? Do you, for a nano-second, think Pelosi cares?
If the motivation for galvanizing public opinion is wrong, the result will be wrong. I am positive about the tea-partiers–I just wish they would think for themselves. All they are doing is empowering other politicians to rule over us. Gee–that makes sense.
Sigh. Gummint, like the Yanks, always wins in the end.

Obambi must really be scared, because while the patriots were outside speaking, he ran unanncounced to the press briefing room to tell everyone that the AMA, and AARP is supporting his bill.
Gibbs had to wait until he finished touting his nonsense.
Tell me this guy doen’t run scared, hiding out in the press room. What a moron, and loser!

I don’t think you’re a troll, but I do think you’re missing the point; this is not, nor was it ever about convincing Nancy Pelosi of anything.

I watched it live on CSPAN-3 and it was pretty painful. They should have limited the speakers to Bachmann, Voight, and Levin. But, alas, it went on for almost 2 hours. While no one spoke for long, too many politicians were called to the mic and it got real old real fast. And I was home with a beer, a cigarette, and a bathroom. It must have been very frustrating for all those people who came from so far away to have to stand there and listen to politician after politician say pretty much the same thing over and over and over again.
Cripes. If there were any reps in their offices when the rally started they were long gone before it finally ended at 2PM.
I wish I could have been there, but I’m glad I wasn’t.

Pumas Unleashed: Obama’s “Godfather” — The Nature of the Beast
[Soros implemented the Dean Plan in the 2008 Democratic Primary. He showed the Obama campaign how to co-opt the media and exploit its pathological hatred for Hillary Clinton. Also, he invested in their parent companies. I fully expect that Soros views them in the same terms Lenin did–useful idiots.
If you study the primary you will see the hand of Soros at every turn, from his ACORN and SEIU thugs, to the 2000 complaints of voter fraud and intimidation, to the takeover of the Democratic National Committee, to the admission that Obama was pre-selected, to the disenfranchisement of voters by the Rules and Bylaws Committee, to the tidal wave of untraceable money.]

St. Louis had a great turnout for our satellite house call at Russ Carnahan’s office today at noon. Close to 500 freedom czars and patriots turned out to protest Pelosicare and creeping Socialism. Sharp Elbows blogger was there taking lots of pics! Check out his site! We were treated to near-CONSTANT supportive honking from passing cars for the hour plus we were there.
Listen up, congress! If you sign this bill, you’re signing your own pink slips!

Yeah. You’re right. Only a hundred pathetic whiners. Nothing for you to concern yourself with.

Ellen commented:
Rumor is that someone DID get into Pelosi’s office – a frail 80-ish priest who started tearing up the health care bill and asking for explanations – rumor goes that Pelosi asked that he be removed so he was “escorted” out by some 10-odd cops where he had to sit on the curb to recover. They finally were able to get him up and escort him to an ambulance. I have photos of the arrest of this poor frail old man, but only rumored accounts of what led to this.

I faxed a letter to everyone on the list yesterday. Think they’re getting it? They’d better. If not, in one year they’re back on the market looking for jobs in the Obama recession like the rest of us.

jb @ 1:29 pm #47
you are correct..
albeit “health reform” is direly needed in this nation..
what they are fighting for is to bring the best health care reform bill possible forward.. one that excludes the “public option”, and includes “tort reform” as well as many other necessities not provided by the already existing public option (ie: Medicaid/care & VA Care by any other name)..
w/o either.. no bill will be successful at anything but building the already launched into outer space deficit, indirectly killing off thousands via Obama’s Infanticide & Euthanasia protocol..
as a matter of fact, they should be thinking of ways to provide the same “insurance” they acquire for themselves & their families for our elderly & veterans vs the ObamaCare they’ve more or less been shackled with for decades, which will most likely worsen once everyone is “transitioned” to Government controlled “death panels”..
OT.. shooting at Fort Hood..
7 dead, many wounded..

if the GOV gets massive control over health care, WATCH—for loud opponents of governmental officials to—MYSTERIOUSLY not be able to get treatments they need…
This is my opinion. It would not happen in the short run.
Yes I am cynical of too much governmental control…especially if only ONE party is in government…(I lived in Chicago—need I say more???)

The massacre at Fort Hood is horrendous. The anti Obamacare troops need to keep moving forward despite that atrocity. Say prayers for those whose lives were just snuffed out and their families, and continue defending liberty, folks.

ViennaMom commented:
I just got home form the rally. First of all, the crowd will be underestimated by the main stream media, but when you hear the roar on video from the people when the congressmen and women are speaking, you can tell it’s football stadium crowd size, not the 10,000 people that Politico cites. That’s just silly. Secondly, it was the most polite, well-behaved crowd I’ve ever seen. I think Pelosi must have ordered heavy handed treatment of rally attendees and arrests ahead of time, because my congressman, Gerry Connolly, a Dem., used very suspicious language when a citizen attempted to speak to him in the hallway. He told the gentleman to move because it was a felony to impede a congressman in the hall of congress on his way to vote. Very strange wording, given the circumstances. He wasn’t in any way blocking or impeding Connolly. On the car ride home, we heard that there were 12 arrests. (Of course not too long ago when Pelosi’s office had a sit-in from Left-wing protesters, NO ONE was arrested.) So much for transparency and equal access. Where are our equal rights?

For those of you who are still pathetically sleeping, you will wake up one day—but it may be too late for you. Unfortunately you who are dissing the rally today are scared of what’s happening. You dont want to think of your Messiah and his henchmen not winning. Why? Because you are supremely brainwashed by the biggest liars in the history of our government. When you have no money left in your pockets due to outrageous taxes, then you will start waking up and seeing the light. Til then, just go back to sleep and hide your heads in the sand—because you’re too stupid to do otherwise.

This is sooo Astroturf. And by Astroturf I am referring to Madamme Speakers version towards the Tea Partyers orginal grass roots efforts to canvass regular Americans to sacrifice a small part or their day from normally working for a living and paying the taxes for the Madamme’s $60,000 per flight trips back and forth to San Francisco. Not Astroturf in the Madamme’s sense where she organizes SEIU members with free bus rides, lunch boxes, and preprogrammed tape reels of nonsensical buzzwords, catch phrases, and colorful signs about considering the children.

I appreciate every one of those speakers because they speak for me. It has been said that Democracy is the greatest form of Govt if we can keep it. Today the people speaking and those who traveled to Washington from all over the country are trying to keep it for the rest of us. Thanks to each and every one of them. If we spoke 24/7 for the next year it couldn’t make up for the BS being spouted from the other side. God Bless America and those who stand on the firing line to keep the rest of us safe.

As opposed to your overlords riding around in limousines, while the most they will let you have is a Trabant … if even that?
Those who oppose Obamacare support policies that will empower ALL Americans to obtain and manage their own health care …
… as opposed to placing care — not just its funding — under the total, top-down, one-size-fits-all control of a few Best and Brightest who, despite their Ph.D’s and their budgets, don’t really have a clue about what YOU need.

Considering the front lawn of the Capitol held 20,000 with Chairs, rows and ailes between the 20,000 seated chairs for inaugural of the President, having the lawn full, elbow to elbow amount to triple that amount.
So, if the lawn is full the amount would be 60,000. With persons on the peremiters, not allowed for an inaugural, for security reason the amount at rally is quite large. Double 60,000????
