Return of the Jedi
This is from the White House Bulletin:
An early September round of public protests [will be] hitting Washington. The first is set to occur on September 9 when more than 1 million signatures on a petition will be delivered to Congress. The "Free Our Health Care Now" petition, initiated by the Salem Radio Network and drawn up by the National Center for Policy Analysis, has already been signed by over 1.1 million. GOP leaders expect to have 1.5 million on September 9 when it will be presented to the media by Reps. Mike Pence, Paul Ryan and Minority Whip Eric Cantor.
Initially many of the pundits dismissed the town hall protests as merely Astroturf, funded by special interests. But as the scale increased, even the opponents had to admit that there was some genuine concern among Americans about the direction of health reform.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE NCPA AND SALEM RADIO.
Ditto Ken’s comment.
They will have to take us seriously one of these days, or start looking for another job. What I would love to see is Obama…lame duck. 2010 is right around the corner !
