Re: Congress gets “tough” on Obama budget

I was recently searching the Constitution to see if there is a way to bypass Congress and impose term limits. There is no referendum procedure per se, but the Constitution CAN be amended without Congressional approval by petition from the legislatures of two-thirds of the States. That's a pretty tall order, but since there are normally more red states than blue states, and since Congress' approval numbers are so low, this may actually be possible.

I wish our own so-called representatives had that kind of cajones. Well done!

"Obama administration wants to seize more than just the banks"

Duh. Tell us something we didn't already know. Chairman Obamao is just another petty dictator wannabe -- just more hip.

Re: Newt Gingrich “Partners” With Tax Day Tea Party

I have been sending out this suggestion to a number of talk radio personalities, including Rush, Hannity and some here in the Cincinnati market. I don't know if any of them will pick up on the idea, but if they do the word will definitely get out. I am also putting this idea out on some other blog sites. I suggest everyone here do the same.

Ah, big deal! What's a trill here and a trill there to these people? If they run out of money, they'll just print more. Of course, that's usually the catch with socialism -- eventually you always run out of other people's money.

Re: Newt Gingrich “Partners” With Tax Day Tea Party

If there's one thing the grassroots Tea Party movement needs, it's a nationally recognized leader with solid conservative credentials. I'm not entirely sure Mr. Newt is that guy, but he's certainly a step in the right direction.

I want to float one other idea. In addition to a true conservative leader, we need TEETH in our agenda. I have done the Cincinnati Tea Party, and plan to do another on April 15 (Boston) and July 4 (Columbus OH), but these events are largely symbolic. The only thing they accomplish is for us conservatives to vent our spleens, but the socialist wackos running Washington right now don't give a rip if we're angry. They view us with scorn and contempt because they have forgotten that they work for us. They have an aristocratic mentality. They need to be reminded of their place.

In that vein, I'm suggesting something like a "Million Taxpayer March" on Washington, in which Tea Party-ers descend on D.C. en masse with a list of practical demands: 1. Repeal the porkulus bill. 2. Immediately cease all bailouts of companies and private individuals. If they fail, that's what the bankruptcy code is for. 3. A written and signed promise from every legislator who voted for the porkulus without reading it not to seek re-election. They have breached the public trust and demonstrated their unfitness for public office.

I also propose that between now and then, we Tea Party-ers engage in a massive letter writing campaign to flood the halls of Congress with written evidence of our outrage. Maybe then they'll start to take a hint -- although I'm not holding my breath.

Thoughts?

Re: Cincinnati tea party draws about 5,000

Dave_J — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 10:38:28 -0000

I was one of the 5,000 packing out Fountain Square on Sunday, and let me tell you, it was a beautiful sight to behold. We real Americans are normally too busy for political rallies because we're preoccupied with earning a living, taking care of our families, supporting our communities, and generally living productive lives. However, the Obamunists are forcing that to change. "All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing." Those days are over. Some 5,000 real Americans turned out to tell the Obamunists: "Enough is enough. Go spread your own [bleep]ing wealth around and leave your grubby leftist paws off of ours!"

Ladies and gents, the Second American Revolution has begun. Every single one of you must join in. We can't afford to have a single real American sitting on the sidelines. Get to a ReTea Party on July 4. Get to a Tax Day Tea Party on April 15 (www.taxdayteaparty.com). Get involved. Speak out. Write angry letters to your Congressmen. Remind them that they work for us. Remind them that we are a nation of limited government and enumerated powers. Remind them that the 10th Amendment still exists. And if they won't listen, remind them that the Second Amendment is there for just such a time as this.

The first Cincinnati Tea Party was a huge success!!!

I attended yesterday with about 5,000 of my closest friends and a lineup of great speakers. Folks were jazzed up and ready to rumble. There were too many great signs to count. My personal fave said quite simply: "Tar. Feathers. Washington. NOW!!!" Amen, brother!

They should be posting photos from the event fairly soon at cincinnatiteaparty.org. Go check them out. Also, on April 15 there will be Tax Day protests in over 100 cities around the country. Find the one nearest you at taxdayteaparty.com.

Who is John Galt, indeed.

We're watching Ayn Rand's fictional scenario play out right in front of our eyes. Or was it truly fictional? I'm beginning to think that "prophetic" would be the better word.

We're overdue for a tax revolt. The simplest way to trigger one is to repeal income tax withholding and make each person write monthly checks to Fedzilla. That would rouse the sleeping giant.
