MARCH FOR FREEDOM– Tuesday March 16, 2010 Washington DC

Last Wednesday President Barack Obama flew into St. Louis to give a private talk to supporters on his plan to have government take over the US health care industry. He also held a fundraiser with local liberals including his puppet senator, Claire McCaskill.

His arrival did not go unnoticed. 2,225 patriots turned out in St. Charles in the morning to rally against his socialist policies. Another 2,000 patriots turned out that night to protest outside of his fundraiser including this grandmother.  

(Keyboard Militia)
She sat in her wheelchair and waved her “Don’t Tread on Me” flag. She came to the protest with her three daughters. She put tape over her mouth to represent that her concerns do not matter in Washington DC. She was at the rally outside the Obama-McCaskill fundraiser for two hours before it got dark and she went home. She just wanted to show her support.
She loves her country and she loves her freedom.

Dan Riehl put out this alert today:

The Left’s political arguments must be confronted forcefully, even outrageously at times if that’s what it takes to get through. Think of it in terms of what Andrew Breitbart is doing in the world of media activism today.

He is calling them out, confronting them, exposing them for what they are and what they believe. And when you prick them like that, they do bleed. Figuratively speaking, if we don’t make them bleed, we will lose. We have been playing politely for decades now. And America has only continued its slide to the Left. And in the face of a pending vote on Obama Care, there is no more room left to give.

I’m not advocating violence. But I am advocating confrontation. Otherwise, most especially now, this one in the White House and his Congressional colleagues seem content to ignore you – to shine you on and you will get only what they choose to give you in the end. That is not the lot of the free man, or woman. It is the lot of the slave, the serf, if you prefer.

That’s why you have to try as best you can to be in DC on March 16th. It’s time to prick, poke, and prod them and make their house of cards cave in. If you don’t do it, now, don’t expect your children, or your grandchildren to do it. If, or when, it becomes their turn on your behalf, when they’re getting ready to pull the plug on you because, well, you’ve lived long enough, they’ll go along, just as you might now. Without our example, future generations of Americans will have no example to follow, let alone believe in.

Show up and be heard, or be herded. There are no other choices. This is the time. And if you don’t speak out, it may well be the last. They have blatantly admitted this is but a first step. What in God’s name does it take for some of you people to get mad? If the last few months haven’t been enough, then your freedom may already be lost. In that case, it’s still your duty to stir yourself to action and begin to take it back on March 16th. Waiting for someone else to do it for you will only assure you of freedom lost. And that is not and has never been the America and the American people I’ve come to know.

This may be our last best chance to stop Obamacare.
