Wow!… More than 1,100 patriots turned out to protest Barack Obama today in Macon, Missouri a town of 5,500.

More than 1,100 tea party patriots and concerned Missourians rallied for freedom in Macon on Tuesday—just down the road from the site of President Barack Obama’s visit.
Several special guests addressed the Stand Up Missouri Rally, including Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer, Congressman Roy Blunt, Carl Bearden, state director of Americans for Prosperity-Missouri, former State Sen. John Loudon, and conservative activist Paul Curtman.
“Our common concern is that the country is literally being bankrupted by foolish ideas,” said Cindy O’Laughlin, an organizer of the rally. “Tonight, people from all around Missouri have spoken—and we are upset with the direction of this county! More than 1,100 people made our voices heard loud and clear, and Barack Obama can certainly hear us now!”
It was a lovely evening for a Missouri freedom rally. (Jonathon Prouty)

When will someone infiltrate Obama’s rallies?
IF you want to get invited to an Obama rally you need to act like a liberal, sign up to Obama’s websites and make them think you are a liberal.. Obama only lets in his fans.

Macon County Patriots’ ralley looked fun. Obama is dreaming, tonight, of how many people he can kill with his medical / medicade cuts. He is a perverse sicko. Worship ONutzoid, his aspirations.

What, no photos of the police dragging away rioters? Oh, that’s right, only the left wingers riot.
Sandy commented:
I want to thank Jim Hoft for sharing this with us. I get depressed that Obama and the Dems have governed against the will of the people. Then I come in here and I find pictures like this and I know that Americans in all parts of the country feel as we do.
I come to Gateway 5 or 6 times a day and there is always something new which gives me hope. Bless you Jim.
Cold Warrior commented:
I sure hope the patriots in Missouri are organizing to become politically relevant in the real ball game of politics — party politics — as precinct committeemen in the Republican Party. To change the outcome of the elections we conservatives have to UNITE in the best adversary to Obama’s party. That happens to be the Republican Party. Half these “voting slots” in the Rep. Party are VACANT. Conservatives could TAKE OVER the Republican Party by INVADING IT TO BECOME PRECINCT COMMITTEEMEN. Only PCs get to vote for the Party leadership. Go here to see how the grass roots conservatives are doing it in Utah:

We conservatives will become politically relevant ONLY if we UNITE INSIDE our natural home — the Republican Party. If all of us carry out The Neighborhood Precinct Committeeman Strategy we can TAKE THE PARTY LEADERSHIP away from the RINOs and also make sure the BEST conservative candidates win the all-imporant, traditionally-very-low-turnout primary elections.
For Liberty,
Cold Warrior

I want to echo Sandy’s post.Moreover,the will of the people will not be silenced by demonization of the Dems and allies in the Press.
Palinfan commented:
The disappointing part was all the rioting, swearing, swastikas, tear gas, vandalism, fights, threats, police crackdown -
Oh, that was the Liberals protesting the immigration bill in Arizona?
NOTHING TO SEE HERE!! MOVE ALONG!! HOPE AND CHANGE!! MOVE ALONG!!

Why does this man continue to come to our fair state? We don’t want him. God bless the 1,000 or so people who denied Obama a Missouri win in 2008. May there tribe increase and spread across the land.
Corporal Vere commented:
This is in stark contrast to Obama’s D’rat-staged demonstrations where they invariably chant, “I want my MTV!”
olm commented:
Wow, that is truly inspiring.
Thanks Jim.
CommieBlaster commented:
These citizens should be very proud!
They’ve set a good example for the rest of our country to follow!
Kevin P commented:
Cold Warrior #10 – I’m with you. I’m in MO and finding out about becoming a precinct committeeman in my county.
I’m thinking this is the way we can also remove incumbent RINO’s – by supporting true conservatives.
And it could be a good thing to also remove career politicians, and to stymie the “family” politicians. I hate the “ruling families” (Kennedy’s, Carnahans, Bush’s, Blunts) idea almost as much as I hate commies.

Hep Hep Huzzah! Go Mizzou!
patman commented:
I’m just sick of these Maconians throwing bottles at cops, spitting on blacks and hurling racial insults, looting stores and burning cars.
And all those NAZI banners…
We need to send troops down there to squash this violence and succession.

Everyone has to get involved. One way to do this is help get Constitutional candidates on the ballot. Please check out http://www.ICAUCUS.org and join your state group, become active, be a vetter.
