After you go to the Hands Off My Health Care Bus Tour, don't forget to show up to a townhall meeting with your Congressional Representative -- Democrat or Republican -- to share your views and ask the tough questions about Obama Care. For those who like me live in Colorado's 7th Congressional District, there's one scheduled meeting with Democrat Congressman Ed Perlmutter:Aug 08, 2009 Time: 1:00PM Title : Government in the Grocery (1:00-3:00pm) King Soopers 500 Bromley Lane Brighton, CO 80601 That's this Saturday in the remote outstretches of the gerrymandered district. Perhaps Perlmutter's staff will agree to host meetings in Aurora and on the west side of Denver (Lakewood / Wheat Ridge / Arvada), too. At least we can hope for … [Read more...]
Memo to My Fellow Mob: Stay Strong and Respectful Against Obama Care
Updated and brought to the top of the fold: Iowahawk makes the point much more effectively and much more humorously than I have. Please read ... and per usual, be sure to keep the liquids clear of the keyboard. [Update at bottom] A growing segment of the American public is angry and awakened about the Obama administration's sly attempt to socialize our nation's health care system. They're showing up to Congressional townhall meetings and expressing their displeasure. I am amused to watch the Left's increasingly unhinged reaction. The irony is so very rich, it's hard to capture it all. First, there's the Democratic National Committee going on the offensive calling you part of an orchestrated "mob" if you stand up vocally against … [Read more...]
Breaking News: Blogger El Presidente Announces U.S. Senate Non-Candidacy
(Satire Warning) Breaking news... El Presidente releases an important campaign-related announcement this morning: He is NOT running for the U.S. Senate in 2010. I heartily endorse El Presidente's non-candidacy. And for the three of my readers out there who might be wondering, yours truly is still carefully weighing the possibility of opening an exploratory committee to enter the six1,013,476-way GOP primary. Stay tuned.... … [Read more...]
White House Lost in Alternate Reality about Public Views on Obama Care
The Left's desperation on the health care debate clearly extends all the way to the White House. Not just asking for informants, but creating an alternate reality. A source forwarded me an email she received from "info@barackobama.com" that sets the stage as follows: … [Read more...]
Sign of Obama Care Desperation: SEIU Thugs Dispatched to Townhall Events
Update: It's not the SEIU, but I just received an email from the AFL-CIO with the heading "Right-Wing Mobs in Brighton", saying "All across the country, a small group of radical right-wingers are intent on disrupting congressional town hall meetings in an all-out effort to stop real health care reform. We need your help now to make sure our voices are heard over the unruly mob." Only my fellow, freedom-loving citizens in Colorado's 7th Congressional District can help fulfill their expectations. Though we also can show them who is vocal but civil. You didn't think the Left was going to let members of Congress sit down and listen quietly to the very serious concerns of their constituents about the proposed government health care takeover … [Read more...]
An Even Stronger Statement from Walker Stapleton’s Fundraising Take
This past quarter's fundraising numbers look even better for Colorado GOP treasurer candidate Walker Stapleton than I reported a couple days ago. His $138,211 take was not just a record for non-incumbents, but a record for any candidate ever in a Colorado treasurer's race. Incumbent Democrat treasurer Cary Kennedy was blown away by more than two-to-one -- as she only raised $65,999 during the past three months. The result for Stapleton is a cash-on-hand advantage of more than $53,000 over Kennedy. Rocky Mountain Right further takes Cary Kennedy's campaign to task for the last-minute desperate plea for money that suggested she was near the $100,000 mark on the last day of the fundraising period (or maybe just $34,000 away):This … [Read more...]
Video: Health Administration Bureau Wants to Ration “The Best” for You
The YouTube hits bashing the serious problems with Obama Care just keep on coming. First, there was the Independence Institute video of the problem with health care mandates for the young, with the scene of Justin's bike getting hit by the bus. Then there was Steven Crowder's hilarious 20-minute undercover documentary of the tremendous deficiencies in the Canadian health care system. Now there's the introduction of the "Health Administration Bureau" with its effectively stylized -- read "funny because it's true" -- introductory video (below the fold): … [Read more...]
“One Giant Leap for Mankind…”
Today marks the 40th anniversary of an event that made possible many a wry observation to begin with, "They can put a man on the moon, but they can't...." (For a more serious take on how times have changed in the past four decades, check out yesterday's Detroit Free Press column by bestselling author Mitch Albom.) … [Read more...]
J.J. Ament’s Entry Makes Two in Colorado GOP Treasurer’s Race
Rocky Mountain Right has the scoop: J.J. Ament today officially has thrown his hat into the ring as a Republican candidate for Colorado state treasurer. I took a few minutes a little while ago to chat with the newly-minted candidate himself. J.J. Ament stressed his "hands-on experience" in previous dealings with the treasurer's office, that he "knows where the waste and inefficiency is" and doesn't have to rely on the bureaucracy like incumbent Cary Kennedy has. He also said that Colorado needs the treasurer to be "a strong independent voice", and that Kennedy hasn't filled that role, either. … [Read more...]
Keep Up the Good Fight for Health Care Freedom and Fiscal Sanity
Update: Michael at Best Destiny also has a great take on last night's Obama press conference -- "Color me unimpressed." President Obama's press conference last night didn't exactly bowl them over. With the plummeting support for the government health care Trojan horse plan before Congress, it will be interesting to see if last night moves the needle on public support at all. Great takes on the presser come from Ace of Spades' Gabriel Malor, Allahpundit at Hot Air, and the editors of National Review. Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal points out Obama's use of Chicago-style intimidation politics behind the scenes to move the government health care takeover forward. But whichever way the political winds may seem to be blowing at the … [Read more...]
