  1. http://washingtonexaminer.com/park-service-oks-immigration-reform-rally-on-closed-national-mall/article/2536908 Apparently you can have access to the National Mall and government services if you support illegal immigration but not if you are a Veteran who fought for your country.
  2. I'm really more suited to guerilla warfare than militia. Lone wolf type. WOLVERINES.....
  3. You probably missed this sentence. They also plan on going the 55 mph speed limit, so they will not be breaking the law. Have you any idea of the enormity of the task of removing 3000+ semi's from the approx. 60 miles of the DC Beltway? I told you previously that you and other left wingers out there in la la land have no idea of the level of anger against this government.
  4. Tractor-trailer drivers will intentionally clog the inner loop of the Washington, D.C., beltway beginning on the morning of Oct. 11, according to a coordinator of the upcoming "Truckers Ride for the Constitution" rally. Organizers of the three-day ride want to call attention to a litany of trucker frustrations and express their disapproval of national political leaders. Earl Conlon, a Georgia trucker who is handling logistics for the protest, told U.S. News tractor-trailer drivers will circle the beltway "three lanes deep" as he rides with other participants to Congress to seek the arrest of congressmen for allegedly disregarding the Constitution. The truckers circling I-495 will keep the left lane open for emergency vehicles, Conlon said, but "everybody that doesn't have a supporter sticker on their window, good luck: Nobody in, nobody out." The trucks will be going the 55 mile-per-hour speed limit. D.C. commuters who wish to be allowed past the convoy must have "T2SDA" – an acronym for the event's original name, "Truckers to Shut Down America" – written on their vehicle, he said. "It's going to be real fun for anyone who is not a supporter," Conlon said, "[and] if cops decide to give us a hard time, we're going to lock the brakes up, we're going to stop right there, we're going to be a three lane roadblock." Zeeda Andrews, a former country music singer helping promote the protest, said last week participants would present demands to congressmen – including the impeachment of President Barack Obama – and give the congressmen an opportunity to agree to the demands in exchange for canceling the ride. But Conlon says that's not quite right. "We are not going to ask for impeachment," Conlon said. "We are coming whether they like it or not. We're not asking for impeachment, we're asking for the arrest of everyone in government who has violated their oath of office." Conlon cited the idea of a citizens grand jury – meaning a pool of jurors convened without court approval – as the mechanism for indicting the officials. "We want these people arrested, and we're coming in with the grand jury to do it," he said. "We are going to ask the law enforcement to uphold their constitutional oath and make these arrests. If they refuse to do it, by the power of the people of the United States and the people's grand jury, they don't want to do it, we will. ... We the people will find a way." It's almost certain that anyone attempting to "arrest" a member of Congress would be arrested themselves for attempted kidnapping. Conlon and Andrews say Obama committed "treason" by allegedly funneling weapons to al-Qaida-linked rebels in Syria. Members of Congress who support arming Syrian rebels, Conlon said, are accessories to the alleged crime. He identified House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., as politicians he will seek to arrest for alleged acts against the Constitution. Andrews said last week 3,000 truckers had RSVP-ed to the event, and Conlon says he's now lost count of the number. He says he's receiving around 100 emails a day from prospective participants. "What we want to do is go in nice and peaceful and keep it as peaceful as possible... but if they decide to get ugly with us we're going to do what we have to do," he said. "If all I get is one or two congressmen walked out of there in handcuffs, that will be a shot across the bow that will ripple across all branches of government. ... I hope they are all civil enough and brave enough to step out onto the congressional steps." Trucker-specific grievances behind the protest include Environmental Protection Agency fuel efficiency standards and the high cost of diesel fuel. State and local anti-idling laws as well as insurance companies purportedly requiring technological updates are among the irritations, as is the perceived deterioration of Fourth Amendment rights protecting truckers' cabs. Whether or not the truckers pack a punch to D.C. area traffic depends on the number and intensity level of participants. A similar three-day protest in 2007, against illegal immigration and competition from Mexican truckers, did not spoil commutes as feared, the Washington Examiner reported. A Facebook page advertising the upcoming ride has close to 50,000 likes.
  5. Because it presents another opportunity to bash anything non-liberal.
  6. Nice that you are so supportive of continuing to spend money we don't have. But I'm sure you think it's OK to just keep printing money. After all, who cares if we go bankrupt if we can just cover 18% of the population with medical insurance.
  7. Vietnam vets didn't fare as well. http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/nbc-police-remove-vietnam-war-veterans-memorial-wall_759267.html[url] The left wingers spit on them when they returned from Vietnam, and did so again, yesterday.
  8. Just when I think left wingers can't get more ridiculous, they top themselves.
  9. Hey, we have plenty of money. If we run out, we just print some more. What's the problem?
  10. +1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yeA_kHHLow This is the sad state our political system has sunk to.
  11. I don't know. You seem to be more interested in her than I am.
  12. I take that as a complement. Gopers? They view entitlements as temporary financial help, and not a life long dependence on the US Government. This is in contrast to moochers who have been on the take as a normal way of life for generations. I just laugh and laugh every time I hear a left winger suggest that when the government forces you to pay into something and then gives your money back to you at a rate it deems acceptable, that means you are some how accepting of socialism. It really does demonstrate a lack of either intellect or honesty.
  13. Can you left wingers twist things or what? Yes, he is doing "slightly" better on the budget issues. Certainly not the huge disparity Bill suggests. Over all his approval ratings are near an all time low. Most of this negativity will be forgotten by the 2014 elections. Although, if Republicans lose even 1 seat, you left wingers will try and blame the government shutdown for it. We would expect no less.
  14. I can assure you that Obama is getting a lot more blame than left wingers 3000 miles away are aware of. The DC area is very saturated with active duty and retired military. Most blame Obama for trying to make this as painful as possible. Only the most ardent Hope and Changers see it any different.
  15. Pretty funny coming from a left winger...Which party is it that is always going around calling people terrorists and anarchists?
  16. Non-sequitur. Try reading the post I was responding to. Then you will see how ridiculous this post was.
  17. Hate to burst your little fantasy but this too will pass. http://www.gallup.com/poll/164714/history-suggests-shutdown-stakes-may-not-high.aspx Keep barring WW2 Veterans from visiting a Memorial to themselves and the numbers for the left wingers will continue to plummet. I think that in your zest to make this shutdown as painful as possible, your Party has over-played it's hand.
  18. You mean like the kind of politician that would sit in a black separatist church for 20 years?
  19. Obamas approval rating is down to 41%. Keep wishing, maybe the libs can get the numbers up if they clench their fists and stomp their feet. That would be more effective than the present tactic. http://www.gallup.com/poll/113980/Gallup-Daily-Obama-Job-Approval.aspx
  20. Don't forget to call Republicans anarchists and terrorists. Seems that's standard operating procedure for your ilk these days.
  21. My first thought was this was Harry Reids mistress and his illegitimate child and that he was behind in his child support due to the government shut down (slow down). http://liveblog.wtop.com/Event/Shots_at_Capitol_Hill
  22. And starting a gun fight would somehow not endanger innocent people? Is your assertion that brandishing a gun would have made the mob of bikers go away and solved the problem? In your mind, how would the inclusion of a gun in this scenario played out? I have provided what I think the likely outcome would have been. Your turn. And I have provided what a likely outcome of racing through the streets would be
