When exactly did we become a dictatorship? Boy, oh boy…have the politicians lost sight of their role. Perhaps a job description needs to be sent. Again, my mantra…2010 can’t arrive soon enough!

God Bless America and its’ genuine and allegiant citizens!!!

I’m putting my initial order in for the “I’m with the “MOB” … and proud of it!!!” T-shirts. Gonna wear ‘em to every meeeting I go to from here on out!

I have feeling that each of us is going to get dinged in this battle, but it’s worth it.

Caligirl, I wish so much I could join your group…only 3000 miles keeps me from doing that.

What I noticed in the video:

1. Amateur signs
2. No swastikas
3. No groupie t shirts
4. A child

We should each of us become ‘an angry mob of one.”

Done. Lloyd Doggett is my House Rep. too. sigh. Now you can report me to the Whitehouse. :-)

Great post SG!

A friend of mine from work and I were considering attending our local representative’s “town hall” meeting to let our opinions be known about the health care legislation (and whatever else was pi**ing us off that day). We were going to drag one of our co-workers with us, a woman our age who drank the kool-aid in November and now wishes she had an antidote for it.

Anyway, we decided not to attend for a couple of reasons. We live in an overwhelmingly raging dem area. Our rep (Zoe Lofgren) is not going to stray from her “progressive” leftist agenda no matter what. And our boss, who is active in politics, especially from the raging dem side, knows this representative and frankly we are concerned that if it’s known we attended this meeting and were against the “agenda,” we could lose our jobs.

Don’t laugh … remember the joke that is going around about how an employer decides which employees to fire: he goes wandering in the parking lot and anyone with an o-blah-blah bumper sticker gets his own special version of “change.”

Never in my 50 years of being a good citizen have I been in fear of voicing an opinion in public … an opinion that differs from those currently “in power.” Have those people forgotten we put them there, and under normal circumstances, we could remove them as well via the voting booth?

The people who are most negatively affected by this so-called health care legislation—people like me—need to get really angry. But examples like that in this article tell me there is no place for us to voice that opinion, let alone voice that opinion to the fools WE put into power.

Last Friday I got an email that Congressman Doggett was going to be in Bastrop, Texas at 4:00 p.m. at City Hall. This visit of Doggett’s was not announced. I emailed some friends and ask if they wanted to attend. I didn’t hear anything until Sat. morning when I started getting tons of emails and phone calls telling me that they were going to City Hall.

After we got there, we filed in, single file, to City Hall and stood quietly in the back. Only one person shouted out at Doggett, asking if he would explain his ‘cap and trade’ bill. During the City Hall meeting that was basically for Bastrop County Historical Society people, the mayor announced there would be a “town hall” meeting at a small community center. No one had been notified of this and we were all looking at each other going “What?”.

When we got to the community center, the police told people they could not take their signs in since it was private property. So people dropped their signs, or put them in their cars, and we entered the community center, once again, single file, as was being allowed by the police. Imagine our surprise when we saw that the center was full of people wearing blue Bastrop County Democratic Party t-shirts.

We stood in the back. Doggett gave his “The health care bill is the greatest things since sliced bread” speech, saying he would do a Q & A afterwards. It didn’t take long for anyone to figure out that Congressman Doggett was not going to take any questions unless he knew them to be Democratic Party members. The next day, Doggett told national TV that he had encountered a “mob”.

The videos you are seeing from Austin are misleading. Doggett had sent out flyers that he would be at the Randall’s store that Saturday morning, so why he was surprised that people showed up is beyond me, except he had only sent the flyers to Democrats. People were trying to ask him questions on the health care bill, but the shouting didn’t start until a man asked Doggett if he would still vote for the bill knowing his constituents were opposed to it and Doggett told him “yes” because it is what is best for his constituents. That is when the “Just Say No” chants started.

Lloyd Doggett, being the weasel he is, never intended to make his Bastrop visit public information. The only people notified of his visit were the BC Historical Society and his own Democratic Party. He didn’t want to face people who are opposed to this health care bill.

So when he is saying he encountered a “mob” of libertarians, paid Republican hacks and people being paid by the insurance lobby, he is outright lying. In Bastrop, the crowd was mostly older seniors, and a lot of U.S. military veterans.

I just want the truth out there. Hope you will tell people what a liar Lloyd Doggett is.

We hope everyone realizes that we will have to report these obstreperous emailers to Mr. Obama’s snitch site.
