Well now I am impressed. They did it. President Obama signs it today. He flies Air Force 1 into
Remember your history? Remember, prior to this nation being founded a small incident in
Think about what happened with the Stimulus Bill. “Stimulus?” It was the largest taking of citizen’s income in the history of the planet. It diverts more of our future income, directing it to the U.S. Treasury for its purposes. I remember, prior to the election that so many people were concerned that Obama was in favor of that socialist belief of redistribution of wealth. “That’s ridiculous!” was the reply. This spending package is the greatest redistribution of wealth that has ever happened in the earth’s entire history. And it was done by a Congress and Senate voting on a document that they did not even read. No taxation without representation! The Democratic leadership had no interest in anyone being able to read ahead of time what they were voting on. Our representatives did not have an opportunity to represent us. The casting of their votes was meaningless.
I believe that arrogance of power is the only reason a leader would do what Obama and King George did. Why did they impose their absolute power over their people? Because they could. I believe it fooled King George into thinking that his actions would have no consequences; that the people he was imposing his will on were powerless to stand up for themselves. They did stand up for themselves. Let us hope that this generation still has some of the principles and courage that our ancestors had.

I'd spend good pay-per-view money to watch those non-represented (Republicans) dress up like Indians, climb aboard rooftops and start throwing solar panels overboard. It would be their most significant demonstration for what's RIGHT since the "French Fry/Freedom Fry campaign on 2004!
The significance of the difference between demonstrations today and the one 250 years ago is that King George was not one of their own. President Obama is one of our own, elected by Americans.
The fact that he broke at least 7 promises to us in just a few weeks is not lost on the people dressed up like Indians. Here are 7 broken promises:
1. Make government open and transparent.
2. Make it "impossible" for Congressmen to slip in pork barrel projects.
3. Meetings where laws are written will be more open to the public. (Even Congressional Republicans shut out.)
4. No more secrecy.
5. Public will have 5 days to look at a bill.
6. You’ll know what’s in it.
7. We will put every pork barrel project online.
How the protesters look or what silliness they perform in your opinion does not matter. The Dems and Obama are treating the people of America like fools. The fact that there are street demonstrations already is not a good sign for them.
