I wish that on this Christmas Eve I could bring good news, but alas, I cannot. Well, I take that back… I’m with family today, and the idea of family is what helps me hold optimism for the future of our country.
But let there be no doubt, a group of US Senators is out to rip from us our liberties and rights to be free. And what’s worse is the fact that they do so pretending that it’s what we the people desire. The arrogance and ignorance is astounding.
Just watch and listen to what Harry Reid had to say after bribing and strong arming his band of thugs in the Senate to support his anti-American legislation.
These thugs in the Senate have perverted the process entrusted to them, illegally paid for votes through bribery and crooked backdoor deals, openly ignored the constitution (which, by the way, also makes it clear that the Senate cannot give advantage to one state over another through legislation), and clearly ignore the will of the people with regards to this healthcare bill.
At this point, it’s apparent that the Senate is operating under one of two paths.
1) Complete Ignorance
In this scenario, the Senate should be held immediately accountable and we the people should begin some sort of proceedings to remove them or force them to step down.
If a Senator, a person who holds enormous power in this world, has proven to be reckless and ignorant in his/her form of governance, he/she becomes a danger to our country.
Since when do we as a free people allow a reckless and out of control government to lead us to a cliff at a pace that will force us over the edge?
2) Malicious Intent
I’m inclined to believe this is the more probable scenario. These Senate thugs are not idiots. I believe they know what they’re doing and I believe they have full intent to grab power in ways that we can’t even imagine.
Through this healthcare legislation, our economy will be completely gutted and permanently crippled. Our rights will be trampled, our liberties tossed out the window and our constitution destroyed.
With each new day this becomes more apparent. Not just to us who operate outside of government, but also to those elected to represent us.
So, if a US Senator is aware of what this legislation will do to our country, yet presses on to pass it anyway, the intent must be malicious.
Either way, we need to begin having a very serious conversation about a path of removal for these thugs. If there are not ways to recall them, there must be ways to press charges or file mass lawsuits. Citizens arrest certainly comes to mind…
And while we ponder these options, we must also begin working on a unified effort to remove these people from power through the ballot box should all else fail.
I hate to bring you such terrible news just a day before Christmas, but I do so with the hope that you’ll emerge from the Holiday week with a focused frame of mind and a willingness to aggressively confront this madness.
War has been declared against us. It’s our duty to fight back.
With that said, please try and have a merry day tomorrow. But also remember that our founding fathers had few breaks when they fought tyranny. We shouldn’t become lackadaisical in our efforts and we should strive to avoid doing so.
May your Holidays contain safe travels and much time with family!
-Eric Odom
UPDATE: I’ve added some basic information about recalling a Senator here.
This war is not over yet. they have won a battle, but we will win the war.
It’s time for a class action lawsuit - NOW! Congress, Harry Reid, “Princess” Pelosi, and Barak Obama (aka, the Kenyan-born Punk currently illegally occupying the White House), are guilty of nothing less than treason against the U.S. Constitution and the People of the United States. Clearly, Congress is not following the rules - now, neither should we! Class Action lawsuit anyone?
Is anyone familiar with the “We The People Foundation .org?
They just had a Constitutional Congress in Illinois with 3 representatvies from each state. Per the Constitution we as a people have the right to pertition the government on items of redress.
I wish them well but I feel this is to little to late. They will be forced to go through our court systems that are run by more Liberal Judges.
Does anyone have any info on the web site or have any comments on the above?
These clowns think that because they say “every American wants this”, it’s true. What a horrible bill to punish our children and grandchildren with!! These polititians are nothing but lying, conniving,treasonous snakes in the grass.
If the bill was so wonderful,why all the backroom deals, bribery, and exemptions of certain states get promised in the dark of night in such a rush. Would you buy a car if the salesman used such rush tatics? I think NOT!!!
Passing this healthcare bill is an abomination of what our Country is all about. It is a disgrace and a slap in the face to all true Americans. The Obama-ites out there just don’t get it, their ignorance is disgusting. They think they are getting something for free, they are fools! It is my opinion that Obama’s goal is to ruin our Country and always was. I hope that WE THE PEOPLE show all of them who voted yes, the consequences of this in the elections to come. Congessman Frank Pallone should be added to the top of the list to go, the stories I could tell!
I believe we should pursue seeing if this bill is conistutional. It treats different states diffeently, and also declares it is unrepealable. These are antidemocratic to the core.
We need to enlist the support of the attorneys within our organization, or perhaps, shudder, even the ACLU, to stop the congress from stripping our liberties in such a blatant and most likely illegal manner.
Talk, talk, talk. Thats all you people are doing. If you think the vote will help us in 2010,your are dreaming.You already know that congress has broken all constituional laws,I may add ,right to our faces.They have committed bribery, fraud,extortion,theft,and without a doubt,probably murder,to get this bill passed.Its time for war,and not by mouths.A leader must step forward. I am to old, and am in remission of cancer. Soon I will be put on Obamas death panel. So ,whats next? More talk? Maybe you should all move to nebraska,and start there!GOOD LUCK!!!
erock:
how can you say that the Republicans have the same agenda in regards to this health care scam? every one of them voted AGAINST it!
I agree that we need elected officials that are strong supporters of the Constitution but unfortunately, the time for a 3rd party is not upon us. We are not really there yet.
The Democrats have proven over the past year that they will continually wipe their butts with our country’s founding documents and don’t give a crap how loud we scream about it.
Now in regards to the wall street bailout, I will agree with you that the Republicans are part of the blame on that one however, keep in mind there were Democrats that voted in favor of that piece of crap legislation as well.
But, if you want to get really technical about that vote…..of the 25 in the Senate that voted against the bill…15 of them were Republican while only 9 were Democrats (there was an Independent candidate, Sanders from Vermont, also that voted no). I won’t bother going into the House vote because I think I have made my point.
As an organizer of 2 tea parties with over 500 in attendance in a small town this year, I suggest we compose a new Declaration Of Independence on the lines of the original one and “Throw the bums out” including the new King George Obama.
You’ve got to realize that both political parties are working for the very same agenda! They are equally corrupt. Don’t expect the Republicans to save us…THEY were the ones who started all these corp/Wallstreet bailouts in the first place!
I fear the next election may be too late. However, a strong 3rd party (with a determined Constitutionalist leader) might make a difference…if we last long enough to elect them.
Remember, Repubs and Dems are working in unison toward the same agenda. Don’t be fooled by fake promises. They both work for the New World Order and globalism!
ERIK, DO WE HAVE A CONSORTUM OF LAWYERS ON BOARD WITH THE TEA PARTY WHO WILL HELP FILE CITIZEN’S ARREST WARRANTS FOR THOSE CONGRESS PEOPLE WHO HAVE SO BLATENTLY INGNORED OUR NATION’S LAWS? WILL HELP IN ANY WAY WE CAN . . .
It is definitely past time to reclaim our government. I am all for everyone having access to health care, but we already have that. Vote out all incumbents, institute term limits to eliminate ‘career politicians’.
There seems to be an awakening of the recall posibilities in the 18 states that allow it. AK, MN, MO, ND to name a few. We need a blitz to get those yoyo’s attention.
I want to wish all of my fellow conservatives and patriots and to all the men and women in the armed forces “Marry Christmas”.
Things look dark now for our great country, but so did it for George Washington some 233 years ago.. Before he crossed the Delaware.
Remember, our Hessians are right across the Potomac.. and Christmas is coming..
I want the 400 + people that tell the 300,000.000 of us what to do to have a very troubling time going shopping, to the store, to the gas station during their break. We have to start acting out in the streets. People think us “TeaBaggers” are freaks anyway. So why should we fight a PR battle…they don’t care. I think there are enough of us in the woodwork to start making some serious trouble. I’m sick of playing nice with these people. I don’t CARE what they think of me anymore. C’mon…let’s get pissed off and kick some ass for a change!!! All bets are off here.
I feel that this is raping our nation. I have been unemployed for a while due to things out of my control, and when this bill is signed off on, I’m a criminal. I’m a criminal because i can’t pay for health insurance. I’m also a criminal because i like to think. that trait has gotten me into a lot of trouble, but right now its an asset. This message goes out to everyone that will listen. If i get arrested for this crime, i will fight it all the way up to the supreme court, It’s unconstitutional and a crime against the American public. I will fight this. a better idea is to take it to the source of the problem, the malpractice lawsuits. the reason why we have a shambling health care system is because of those. 1 or 2 doctors make a mistake, then every doctor has to have malpractice insurance. (i know those numbers aren’t real, but everyone remembers the bad things instead of the good things, like Nixon opening up china to trade, but he is remembered for Watergate.) therefore driving the price of health care up. buckle the hatch’s and ready the war drums.
Call to arms I say! We take it back by force! Why let 60 thugs try and tell us WE THE PEOPLE what to do? We should strip them of their citizenship put them on a miltary airplane to France, open the gates at the base and let them go since they love socialism so much, with nothing but the clothes on their back, seize all their ill gotten gains, sell it, put towards the debt they have run up at our expense. We don’t have to do anything this trash tells us. Then we will hold all the rest accountable. RINO’S,Acorn, unions, and any other trash that has tried to bring this country down. Audit the ACLU, the Federal Reserve, moveon.org and the likes! Like I said call to arms! Merry Christmas my fellow patriots.
The Tea Party needs to have a national convention ASAP, to have some leaders elected, and to get organized to carry out all of of the above GREAT ideas
I really like what Bill P. says…find a lawyer who will file a lawsuit.
C-Span reported today that the CBO (Congressional Budget Office)openly admitted that the Senate “blatently misrepresented the budget for the health care overhaul by removing billions from Medicare and replacing it with an IOU…and calling it ‘budget neutral’, when in fact it creates a deficit…essentially spending the same money twice.”…which Congress members that would vote against this have not had time to realize yet….no wonder this is being rammed through so fast.
If this is not “illegal enough”…I’m sure that forcing one state to pay for another state’s Medicaid program is!
Find a lawyer and I will help raise funds and contribute some myself.
I found a great website that we need to get involved NOW!

A majority - not just a few - of Americans must say and mean it, ” enough is enough ! ” If America is not to be destroyed by insidious, creeping socialism and depravity - same sex marriage- then, a majority of Americans in all fifty (50 ) states must be willing to rise up, fight back. We must all be wise enough to refuse to be bought off with ‘ near election largess’. Ever wonder why so little of the TARP money has been spent ? it’s because the PC Democrats and R.I.N.O. rely on voters being so grateful for a few hand-outs, that all is forgotten, forgiven, or deemed unimportant in face of the ‘ trojan horse gifts’. Parents must take back their responsibilities and make decisions a bout the values their children will grow up with as standards of behavior. School Superintendents, Principals and Teachers who indoctrinate, rather that educate our children must be fired. We pay their salaries through taxes - the final say must be ours. Slavery ended along time ago. The ” shame ” of the era - that is used to clobber compassionate Americans into submission must be put in its rightful place - in the past, a part of history. White Americans died in the Civil War, not just Blacks. The War on Poverty became a multi billion dollar industry and poor blacks got poorer and became less educated. The PC Democrats use poor, uneducated minorities - especially Blacks and Hispanics - as shields to ” nudge America into a totalitarian society. The so-called ‘Health Care Reform ‘ is the trojan horse used to bring the socialist prison into America. Tea Party Patriots must not let up or become silent even for a moment. We are not a helpless people. For those of us who don’t know the power we actually possess, we need to be educated. The average voter must be constantly, continuously schooled in our Constitutional Rights and the power to “Recall, Impeach, Charge, try, and convict for treason. Forget Political Correctness! Tell the truth. Call President Obama, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, and the Czar, Socialist traitors to America. They should all be impeached, convicted and tried for treason and imprisoned. All these unconstitutional Laws must be repealed, nullified or whatever it takes to void them. America must stop playing the games. Tell the truth, loud and constant. America can be retaken. It takes a strong desire and determination. Remember, there is no need to love a politician, unless you are married to him/her or related by blood. Otherwise, if they are harming the Country, thus you. Get rid of him/her/them.
Are there going to be any townhall mettings with these melon heads before they return to washington in mid January?
We need to get on their butts big time.
I think that we need to get a nationwide recall effort started for all the traitors in congress that voted against the will of the people. We need to show them who they are responsible to and to show them to the closest unemployment line!!
What a time of year to rob and steal from the younger generation and those to come. I hope these thieves fry in H… as soon as possible. We need to defeat the tyranny they represent and reinstitute liberty for all.
I would like to see some liberty-loving, Tea Party attorneys organize in order to bring charges, if possible, against the Senators and Representatives who are violating their oath to uphold the Constitution. Eric–is there a lawyer’s group within the Tea Party movement/website?
I wish that we could organize a visit to our Senators houses over this holiday season just to let them know we know what they did and they will be fired come November.We only have one up for election (Spector) but it will sweet joy to see him go down.
Barac Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, and the Senators Nelson, by the majority of the “legal” American citizens, are the most hated people in the country for their unconstitutional, sleezy, and out and out crooked (virtually to the point of TREASON)behavior in FORCING an absurd Health Care Reform(?)against the will of the majority of WE THE PEOPLE! Their behavior cannot be ignored, chalked up to “that’s politics”, condoned, or let pass without the severest of consequences to each and all of them. These “lawmakers” have directly violated their OATH OF OFFICE and MUST be held accountable!! WE THE PEOPLE should not rest until these people, and some more like them, are removed from any form of government “service” via impeachment, imprisonment, or, at least, by voting them ALL out!! STAND UP AMERICA AND FIGHT!! WE do not work for the government, they work(?) for US!! I hoped against hope that Obama would do what “he said he’d do” during the campaign (although I did NOT vote for him). I grieves me to learn that he is an A-1, US Prime, LIAR!!! He talks the talk but CANNOT walk the walk!
Hawkin,
Senators represent the entire state. They do not have districts like Representives. Consiquently have a chance to defeat Boxer, on a statewide ballot. It is achievable. We don’t get a shot at the other Senator until 2012(could be 2016).
Articles of Impeachment need to be filed against any and all congressional representatives who voted in favor of these unconstitutional measures and the means to get there.
And, if Obama signs it, Articles of Impeachment needs to be filed against him as well.
Each and every one of them swore to uphold the constitution, and it’s time to stop these incessant measures that continually chip away at our Declaration of Independence and Constitution.
The Republicians have no power now. Plus, they are willing to take the turn coat democrats into their party. The Republicians need to clean house, there is no hope for the democrats.
It is up to us to find those we want to be elected and work daily to get them elected.
Last night I made a flag cheescake with blueberries and cherries for the stars and stripes. I called it my “Bye Bye Miss American Pie.” Mourning kids’ liberty:(
In regards to Barbara Boxer and Diane Fienstine, they have no fear of loosing an election because of thier districts and how they are layed out.
I do not know, but maybe someone can tell me how we can redesign these districts.
I feel this is the main reason why so many politicians in our state do not fear the people. This is the real reason for their arragence.
Any suggestions?
Surely there will be some Republican senators who will challenge the legality of this ludicrous bill. If it is signed into law, it will lie there like a snake in the grass forever. Constantly being tweeked, revised and changed. Used as an avenue to Socialism/Communism until we no longer recognize America at all. We are already a fading Republic as our elected representatives ignore us.
Remember Winston Churchill: “Never, never, never, never, never give up.” He also said, “I am easily satisfied with the very best”
and it is the very best that we have in the tea partiers who will fight this thing through until we have Swept The House Clean in November and we retake the White House in ‘12. We need to work, we need to fight, we need to pray. If we do those three things, we’ll be ok.
I knew this vote would happen but it is still sickening. If only the Republican Party had the passion of the people in this movement. Republicans talk a lot but I don’t hear anyone talking like he or she is willing to risk their seat to do what is right. I am sick of this talk about friends and reaching across the isle. The Democrats are not our friends. This is not “just another way of looking at issues.” We cannot afford to look down the road when true bi-partisan work may be needed. This batch of Democrats are not trying to do what is best for America - only what will please their constituency groups. I maintain by Republican membership only in the hopes that my opinion might count. Republicans need to understand that if they don’t replace the Jello in their spines with titanium steel they will be replaced with people who have.

WAKE UP AMERICA, if you don’t think this country is in trouble, STICK YOUR HEAD BACK IN THE SAND.
All real americans should be alarmed at the latest goals these troies had infecked on our country. We are seeing history repeat itself. To listen to Obama, Reid, etc. you would thing we have Kings and Queens ruling over us again. It is time to fight any way we can to stop this maddness that has taken over our country.
I am enjoying being with my family and resting for the next few days. There will be much to do in 2010. Looking forward to voting out these treasonous Senators in 2010. As a Nevadan, I am especially looking forward to voting out Harry Reid…what an embarassment to Nevada and the country.
I wish more people were like Sen. Jim Demint of SC. He does speak his mind and tries. Also John McCain gave Al Frankin hell the other day which of course Frankin deserves. McCain should have been president despite the fact that I wanted anyone else in the GOP who ran but him! Mike Pence is also a Patriot. We have good people in the Government. We just don’t have enough. We need to speak with our neighbors, friends and relatives and inform them of what is going on. My democratic Uncle and his republican wife still think Palin was to blame for McCain’s election loss. My uncle loves the car rebates and all the democratic goodies being passed down. He’s got money to blow, too. I told him that its like robbing Peter to pay Paul and that eventually the kiddy will run dry. We don’t have an endless supply of money trees! So I know many still don’t understand and must be informed. We need to unite the republican party with the Tea Party and clean the democrats/liberals clocks next fall! United we stand. Divided we fall!
The healthcare bill is an unbelievable shambles and its hard to believe how anyone could honestly think that we are so stupid to believe this will help the economy and we the people. But then, if you watch CNN, MSNBC, Katie Curic, and others like that, I can understand why. The media is also a big culprit! FOX NEWS ROCKS along with Dick Morris, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levine and more. Thank God for the few freedoms we still have which is still enough to beat the rotten scoundrals out of office!
These 60 Democrat Senators have committed treason against the United States. They and their House counterparts should be removed from office as soon by the enforcement of the will of the people where it counts most-at the ballot box.
Never Forget!
Our founding fathers (and my grandparents) are rolling in their graves right now. They’ve gone too far this time! Thanks to all the sheep who voted for socialism, now they get to decide who will live and who will die. We need to do something about this!
I agree we should attempt to remove corrupt Congress members.
But I also think we need to change the constitution to take power away from the Congress and president permanently.
We need a constitutional amendment requiring a majority popular vote for all major bills, such as raising the deficit ceiling, the budget and so-called health care reform.
You read it here fitst.
I am sick at what is happening in this great country. our freedom is disapearing right before our eyes. If we cannot take our country back or defeat this healthcare we have lost America as we know it forever. this is not a Merry Christmas
Here in MA, on Jan 19th, we have a very important opportunity to fill the vacant senate seat of Ted Kennedy, one of the original authors of this pro-socialism bill. If Scott Brown could be elected here, what a message that would send!!!
The opposition, Martha Coakley, has shamelessly promoted herself as pro Obama and pro this bill and sees nothing wrong with aligning herself with the existing thugocracy in Washington.
He SUCKs, along with the entire liberal administration! Hopefully, they ALL get punished in 2010.
I think we should find the state with largest population of Tea party members, people who are constitutionalists, and have a lawyer file impeachment papers against a senator or at least one representative. After all the baloney we are going through, there must be a WEAK member of congress who could make a good target/example of violating their constitutional oath. In the coming two years showing strength not just for democrats, but also republicans to believe the Tea Party has some “oats”, so to say, is going to be important to get their “ears”!! Even if impeachment doesn’t work it will generate so much media attention that removal from office should be certain. Now, where to find a lawyer who is willing to fight for the constitution–is that possible?
I have already begun to fight. I’ve attended quite a few Tea Parties, I’ve written my Senators, called almost every day and blog on a constant basis. I talk to everyone about it. I live it, breathe it, eat it and I dare anyone to open their mouths about how they support what this band of bozos is doing. I’m there, I’ll be there now and until the day I go to meet my father in heaven. I’m not afraid to do what it takes to save this country for myself and my children and if that means pulling this bunch of socialists out by their hair, I’ll do that too.
It makes me so mad that they are such liars and keep acting as if they’ve done the greatest thing in the world…when they are trying to destroy our constitution and turn our country into a Socialist society!
Victory for Socialism and Tyrany - Sad day for Patriotic Freedom Loving Americans. The battle is not over. We must continue to reach out to everyone we can throughout the year. Our Judgement day will be in the 2010 elections.
