Flatline ObamaCare Now!

noreply@blogger.com (1776 Project) — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 22:35:00 +0000

Alright folks,

We are working on posting updates on facebook, our action blog and our regular blog. It's up to all of us and those who we know to take action and call and fax these politicians. The 2 individuals listed below have been singled out because they are blue dog democrats who are on the fence on the bill. We can sway them to not toe the party line. The health care bill has stalled in committee. We have to strike now before they pull the wool over our eyes again and sneak this by us.

I cannot stress to you enough that taking action now and killing this thing now is of utmost importance. If this thing passes and the President signs it you can be sure that getting rid of this monstrosity will be very difficult. Stop it now before it's too late. Forward this info to your friends, post it on your blog, post it on my space or anywhere you can.. Take action! Start today!

Here is the text that we should use (feel free to add or subtract as you see fit so long as we are united in saying NO to HR3200).

Hi, my name is _____________. I'm calling about HR 3200, the America’s Affordable Health Choices Act. I am concerned about that this bill will lead to a government takeover of health care and that the tax increases proposed by Democratic leadership could have a crippling effect on our economy. Georgians are watching and waiting to see if the Congressman will stand for taxpayers, present and future, and be a voice for fiscal sanity.

Thanks for your time.

Here is the info for the congressmen whom we can sway. Remember, it doesn't matter if they are not in your district or even in your state. Their decisions affect all of us.

Here is the contact information for Rep. Jim Marshall (D-GA-8). He is from Macon, so that is probably the best office to contact.

Macon Office:
682 Cherry Street, Suite 300
Macon, GA 31201
Phone: (478) 464-0255
Toll-free: (877) 464-0255

Washington Office:

Washington, DC 20515
Phone: 202/225-6531
Fax: 202/225-3013

John Barrow (D-GA-12) is the other Democrat from Georgia who is potentially vulnerable. He tends to be more liberal than Marshall, but not by much.

Savannah is probably the best office to call here.

NEW ACTION UPDATE!

noreply@blogger.com (1776 Project) — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:42:00 +0000

Obama wants to pass his healthcare proposal before the end of this legislative session (3 weeks). There are many blue dog democrats who are teetering on the edge of not supporting this massive expansion of federal power and a new unfunded program. WE CAN STOP THIS! Here is a link to the first petition we must sign: http://www.freeourhealthcarenow.com/ More is necessary.

Folks, this is just as important as voting. Take action and get involved. We can stop this bill from passing. We will be posting more information in the coming days. Time is of the essence. Get involved now.

Action Update: Meeting in Atlanta plus...

We're over 300 fans on facebook. That's great but we can do better. If you haven't invited all of your friends to join, then go ahead and click it up! This week we have 2 missions:

In Georgia:

1. Attend our 1st meeting at Manual's Tavern in the Virginia Highlands. You can view that information here. Please attend. We will be discussing goals, organizational structure and other ideas.

Out of State:

1. If you are out of state, we need creative ideas on how we can protest different government actions. For example, the Government is printing money out of thin air. Maybe we should help them out by sending them old printers to replace the used up parts on the presses at the Treasury department. We are looking for creative, guerilla marketing/protest tactics to get our points across like described above. Please contact us via the contact page or hit us up on facebook. You can do that from the social media page.

Action Update: Get the Word Out

1) Repost Independence, Justice and Revolution it at least one other place (myspace, facebook, your blog etc) and recruit at least 1 new member to the fan page. Be sure to write on our wall indicating that you've accomplished that goal.

2) Sign up for our Action Update RSS feed by clicking on the RSS button above
