Can the unthinkable actually be happening? Is the Obama Administration employing Stalinist tactics of thuggery and intimidation against average Americans who oppose ObamaCare?
Consider the following incident.
When Barack Hussein Obama rolled into town for his – by invitation only – town hall meeting in Bristol Virginia, average citizens, desperate to make their voices heard, gathered on sidewalks and curbs along the route of Obama’s motorcade holding homemade signs opposing ObamaCare.
One of the peaceful citizen protesters sent this shocking eyewitness report to the Internet blog, TheGatewayPundit.com:
“There were several vehicles following the limo that contained the secret service. The vehicles had all the windows rolled down, and back hatches open on the SUVs with the men holding their, I assume assault rifles, machine guns, drawn on everyone lining the streets. Needless to say, it took my breath away at the sight of them, and made my friends and I dizzy with fear…. I turned on a local talk radio program as we were leaving and all the calls were about witnessing the guns being pointed at them.”
Of course, we don’t want to jump to any conclusions. There might have been a legitimate reason behind what appears to otherwise be an excessive show of force… we simply don’t know.
But even if the intent of the Obama Administration was not to oppressively stifle 1st Amendment rights… the message that was left is nonetheless chilling.
Rosslyn Smith with AmericanThinker.com put the incident in perspective:
“Whatever it was, the message was poison. Only handpicked supporters were going to get into the carefully orchestrated media event at a Kroger deli that had Obama jetting in and out of the community. That all those who were left to peacefully demonstrate outside had been held at gunpoint is not going to be forgotten anytime soon by those in attendance.”
Thuggery? … Veiled threat? … Paranoia on the part of Team Obama? … Legitimate and necessary safeguards to protect the life of the President against a real threat?
We may never know.
But there is one thing that we do know. Proponents of ObamaCare are showing a detestable contempt for the American people.
They don’t want to hear from you. They don’t want to hear what you have to say when it comes to the government takeover of the health care system and they don’t care what you have to say.
Essentially, they are trying to tune you out.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. You can make them listen… right here and right now.
Use the hyperlink below and send Barack Obama and each and every member of the Republican and Democratic Leadership of the House and the Senate messages that have a powerful and real impact.
Flood their fax machines. Tell them that Americans want no part of ObamaCare and that attempts to ignore or ridicule or marginalize or dismiss the majority of Americans who oppose the government takeover of health care will only make a bad situation worse and place their political futures in peril.
Remind them that they work for the American people. Remind them that the American people are their employers, not their serfs. And finally, demand that they cease-and-desist their callous tactics and abandon ObamaCare once and for all.
Union Thuggery… Maoist Moms… Or Making Mountains Out Of Molehills?
On Thursday, the left-wing Huffington Post published an article, “Unions To Take On Conservative Groups Health Care Town Hall.”
“The nation’s largest federation of labor organizations has promised to directly engage with boisterous conservative protesters at Democratic town halls during the August recess.”
“In a memo sent out on Thursday, AFL-CIO President John Sweeney outlined the blueprint for how the union conglomerate would step up recess activities on health care reform and other topics pertinent to the labor community. The document makes clear that Obama allies view the town hall forums as ground zero of the health care debate. … ‘The principal battleground in the campaign will be town hall meetings and other gatherings with members of Congress in their home districts,’ reads the memo.”
“Directly engage?” … “ground zero?” … “principal battleground?”
We can only hope that Sweeney is talking about pristine political activity.
But there’s something else.
A video posting by Linda Douglass, the communications director for the White House’s Health Reform Office, on the White House blog on Tuesday has people wondering….
Is the Obama Administration recruiting Maoist Moms? Is Big Brother recruiting people to spy on their friends and neighbors?
“There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to [email protected].”
Of course, what really makes Douglass’ posting downright scary is the fact that no one is spreading any “disinformation” when it comes to Obama’s so called “health care reform.”
Douglass says: “For the record, the President has consistently said that if you like your insurance plan, your doctor, or both, you will be able to keep them.”
But what Obama says and what is spelled out (in black-and-white) in the so-called “health care reform” legislation making its way through Congress are diametrically opposed.
To put it bluntly… Barack Hussein Obama is telling a whopper… a big one… and the response of the White House is to encourage their liberal shock-troops to report people who are telling the truth when it comes to ObamaCare?
That’s the stuff that nightmares are made of.
Are these incidents molehills or mountains… coincidences or well-thought-out attempts to suppress your 1st Amendment rights?
We can at least say this; the proponents of ObamaCare are showing extreme – almost surreal – contempt for the American people.
They don’t care what you want… they don’t care what you think.
But you can force them to listen. You can flood the fax machines of our elected officials… it’s a message they cannot ignore.
And now is the time to act because ObamaCare will radically change your live… it will radically change the lives of your children and grandchildren… speak up now or forever hold your peace.

Extreme Malice Directed Against The American People Or Depraved Indifference…?
At this point there is no telling just how far the extreme-left will go in its quest to ram ObamaCare down the throats of the American people.
But there can be no doubt that Obama and Nancy Pelosi and their minions are willing to play dirty.
And we’re not talking about playing hard-ball with the political opposition… we’re talking about political hard-ball waged against average Americans… the people they are sworn to serve.
No lie is too great… no tactic is too under-handed.
In California, seven retirees who were deeply concerned about health care went to Senator Diane Feinstein’s West Los Angeles office wanting to speak with her.
Instead of welcoming the seniors, Feinstein’s office called the police.
Senior Citizens a threat? Right.
Nancy Pelosi recently had this to say of hard-working American taxpaying citizens who have actually taken the time to speak out against ObamaCare.
“They’re carrying swastikas and symbols like that to a town meeting on healthcare.”
Uh… Madame Speaker… we hate to break this to you… but if people were indeed carrying handmade signs with swastikas… it’s not because they were advocating the atrocities committed by the NAZIs… it’s because they were comparing the tactics of the proponents or ObamaCare to the tactics of the NAZIs.
Perhaps, the analogy goes too far, but average citizens do have the right to express an opinion.
Maybe this is one of those times that Pelosi should ask the question that good liberals typically ask when confronted by enemies of the United States… “What could we have done to make them so mad at us.”
Or does Pelosi consider enemies of the United States to be her friends and patriotic Americans to be her enemies?
But here’s the icing on the cake… elected officials are now actively attempting to cut the lines of communication with the American public.
According to CNS News, some Members of Congress, are now holding their town hall meetings by telephone in an attempt to avoid “angry and persistent questioners.”
And one Congressman, Brad Miller (D-NC), has cancelled town hall meetings altogether.
Expect more Members of Congress to follow suit.
They may not want to hear from you but you can do something to make them hear you loud and clear right now.

Alice In Obamaland: Spontaneous Opposition Is “Manufactured” and Rent-A-Mob Protests Are Spontaneous.
Americans are starting to feel like Alice plummeting down the rabbit-hole.
For the first time in a good long while, average Americans, many who have never been politically involved before (small business owners… mothers… retirees), are taking part in the political process and are desperately trying to make their views known to our elected officials in Washington.
It’s a largely spontaneous movement – complete with homemade signs – and yet, some of these extremely liberal proponents of ObamaCare are actually pointing fingers at boogie men that don’t exist… claiming that public indignation has been “manufactured.”
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs:
“[T]here are groups that spread out people across the country to get people to go [to] these things and to specifically generate videos that can be posted on the Internet so that people can watch.”
“Manufactured” opposition…. “Groups that spread out people across the country?” It’s a fairy-tale… the latest liberal talking point.
It’s also hugely ironic when you consider that the left has traditionally relied on “community activist groups” like ACORN, labor unions and “rent-a-mobs” for years.
Bussing in protesters is Standard Operating Procedure for leftist organizations. Leftist organizations employee people full-time for the express purpose of rounding-up warm bodies.
Liberal organizations (Greenpeace is just one example) maintain “training camps” for liberal activists.
And Obama knows that… he was a “community organizer” for years.
But now that average Americans are now taking part in the political process, liberals have the audacity to claim that these protests are being “manufactured” and “engineered?”
Who are they trying to fool?
The hypocrisy is staggering.
Of course the bottom line is that some of our elected officials just don’t want to listen.
You can make them listen… right now.
Unless, of course, you fear that exercising your 1st Amendment rights might be construed to be “manufactured opposition.”

Liberal Denial-Of-Reality Is The Disease. You Are The Cure.
And just how far does liberal denial-of-reality on ObamaCare go? Just how deep is the rabbit-hole?
Speaking on ObamaCare, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid offered this delusion to CNS News:
“The American people favor what we’re doing by almost a 70 percent margin.”
Not reading legislation is bad enough but it’s obvious Reid isn’t reading polls either.
According to FOX News, a whopping 86% of Americans are satisfied with their current health care and according to Rasmussen, a majority of Americans now oppose ObamaCare and the number is rapidly climbing.
And while we’re on the subject of denying reality, let’s take another look at Douglass’ posting to the White House blog mentioned earlier?
“There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation.”
“Rumors?” “Disinformation?”
“End of life care” … “control of your finances” … “the eradication of your private insurance” … Those issues are specifically addressed in the 1019 page monster of a bill… legislation that Obama has – by his own admission – not read.
Do you think that if Obama would actually read the legislation, the White House would change its tune?
Don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen.
CNS News again:
“Asked if the president would read the 1,000-plus health care bill, [White House Press Secretary Robert] Gibbs said ‘I assume the president will study the details of the proposal, and will be – he’s a highly informed individual.’”
“The reporter followed, ‘But he won’t take time to read it front to back?’ Gibbs responded, ‘I don’t know what his vacation plans are currently.’”
It’s the epitome of arrogance. ObamaCare will radically change our lives and our future and Obama won’t even take the time to read the legislation.
Then to add insult to injury, the White House claims that provisions specifically addressed in the legislation – in black-and-white – aren’t actually there… just “rumors” and “disinformation.”
So why, in the name of all that is holy, is the White House sending our a directive soliciting others to report those who are speaking the truth about this legislation.
What does that sound like to you? I know what it sounds like to us.
And it must be stopped.
