Video Update: Sarah Palin – John McCain Rally in Phoenix
Sarah in Searchlight courtesy of FreedomsLighthouse:
Sarah entered to an awesome tune-
John Shadegg R-AZ was there, Jeff Flake R-AZ, Mayors of Chandler and Glendale.
Sarah and Todd looked great, we were right in front of the lecturn with blue and red pompoms and the American flag. We chanted ‘Repeal and replace’ at several points throughout John’s speech…
Sarah was in fine form, fiery and passionate, defending our Constitution, our right to dissent.
Several Obot plants broke into incoherent shouts of koolaid induced madness t at two points. A very large dude who was earlier leading us in cheers helped escort one out a fellow attendee did the escorting not any mccain staff) , the other was rambling some incoherent BS about the ‘truth in the Middle East and about Israel’; he looked like 17, I’d be surprised if he finished high school. We chanted him down with Sa-Rah Sa-Rah, and USA-USA-USA and John Mc-Cain, John Mc-Cain…
same kind of infiltration I saw at the Big Dawg and HRC rallies, same Alinsky playbook., Sarah was very polite handled it beautifully, suggested one of them listen and learn something, and afterward defended our right to protest -peacefully.
She stressed smaller government is better government..
Sarah made a big point of talking about how we do NOT condone any sort of violence and that all our of ‘fighting’ words are about our VOTES!
She stressed that we must NOT let the lamestream media derail or distract us from our message and she said the way they are covering tea party patriots as violent is ‘all bunk’.
She is now on her way to Searchlight, NV for the HUGE tea party patriot rally to boot out Harry Reid!
Pics up very quick promise..
Rep. John Shadegg (R-AZ)
Rep. Jeff Flake (R-AZ)

Update: MichelleMalkin has the RollCall of the vote on the Slaughter Rule. 222 Democrats in the House climbed aboard Pelosi and Obama’s Crazy Train.I am very proud to report my Critter broke against the flow of dead fish as Sarah would say and voted No. Big Booyah to Harry Mitchell AZ 05!!! The rest of the Crew will be on the Highway to Hell with their constituents come Easter Recess..good luck with that!
Update: Emailer points out ‘Suicide Solution’ is more apropos, heh. Agree!
Is it November yet? 🙂
Update: PPP: Rubio has 32 point primary lead over Crist; Our Charlie Crist numbers tomorrow will be ‘absolutely brutal’
Update: WOW! PPP wasn’t kidding, Sorry Charlie! Expect him to run as an Indy or Dem, I have long suspected he and O had a ‘gentlemans’ agreement that he not push for a revote in the Dem primaries for FL..frakkers…
…Rubio now leads Crist 60-28, including a staggering 71-17 lead with conservatives. Crist has a 49-36 advantage with party moderates, but they account for just 31% of likely primary voters compared to 65% who describe themselves as conservative….
Marco baby….
From the PPP blog. I would add emphasis, but the whole thing could be in bold:
We are going to have absolutely brutal numbers out on Charlie Crist tomorrow.
Here’s a little preview: among Republican primary voters 19% would like to see him as Governor a year from now, 14% want him in the Senate, and 56% want him out of elected office.
If there is any path to his winning office in Florida again- and there may not be- it’s as something other than a Republican.
Marco on the health care bills in the House and Senate:
Health-Care Proposal & Process Are Fundamentally Flawed.
Marco Rubio at The Corner:
(…) How many bipartisan, Massachusetts-like pushbacks is it going to take for President Obama to understand the American people want to reform health care without changing and abandoning all the things that have made our system great?
How many town halls, tea parties and elections will it take for the American people to finally convey to Washington that we need to scrap this flawed proposal and process, and start anew on step-by-step reforms?
I join the American people in opposing this proposal on policy grounds as well as the procedural approach being considered to ram it through.
If President Obama and congressional Democrats go down the road of reconciliation, they will leave no doubt in the American people’s minds that Washington is broken and 2008’s promise of “Change” was little more than a campaign slogan that should not have been believed in the first place.
The health-care proposal is a deeply flawed plan that should be scrapped entirely in favor of a truly bipartisan approach that pursues step-by-step reforms….
MiM- Marco Rubio is the first conservative we have given money to as recovering Dems. Yeah he is that good, he makes me want to be fiscally responsible, ooooh! Marco-Marco-Marco- GOP needs to get that calendar together cough, cough..

Continues after the break:
Will Obama destroy his presidency to ram down healthcare?
My guess is yes, yes he will destroy his presidency in an attempt to ram healthcare through. That’s probably a big problem for a malignant narcissist…when people say ‘NO’ I mean….
Update from the Tea Party Patriots:
Let the Healthcare March Madness Begin!!!
Below, you will find some ideas that you may find useful to use in this fight. You can select which ones, if any, you or your group will use.
1. Calls.
Make phone calls and send faxes to the House members listed below.
2. Petitions.
Tea Party Patriots will has a Stop Reconciliation Petition up on our web site. Sign it and encourage others to sign it. We will print it off and hand deliver to Congress.
3. Rallies & Candlelight Vigils:
Host a rally and/or candlelight vigil outside your representative’s LOCAL offices.
We must host these events as often as possible. Daily is a good idea and can be done as follows:
Some groups are doing rallies and a repeat of what we did in August. Some members held daily protests outside the local offices. NO not huge events, but daily events with at least 10 – 20 people. We did two shifts a day, Monday through Thursday from 8:30 to 10:00 AM and 4:30 to 6:00 PM. This covers the commuters to and from work.
Suggested idea is to have individuals on the street protesting and one by one someone goes up to the office to speak with an office member and/or your representative. At the same time someone else calls the office. We can keep them busy. Deliver to the office a petition (get signed by friends and neighbors), a handwritten letter voicing your complaints about the HC bill and reconciliation, ask for a meeting with your rep or anyone in the office immediately not tomorrow.
The discussion is to do a national day of protest; these are the dates we have heard so far from other groups. Thursday, 3/11, Thursday, 3/18 and Wednesday, 3/24.
Update: Health Care Action Alert: Call Your Critters!!!
Update: Here is the timeline, they are trying to do it before reconciliation under the budget expires AND before they come home to face us for Easter recess...Ive heard of Christmas and Easter Catholics but Christmas and Easter CongressCritters? frakkers…
…John Lawrence, chief of staff to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, told health care activists in a conference call Friday that Congress needed to act before the Easter recess, or they could see a repeat of the tumultuous August break. Only this time, Republicans will use reconciliation to characterize the party as “shoving it down our throats,” Lawrence said, according to notes provided by a person on the call….
Having lived through the Democratic primaries as an HRC supporter, when Hillary kept winning the big electoral state primaries and Obama kept swiping caucuses, only to have the Dem leadership push Obama as ‘the candidate’ again and again and again, I am sadly not SHOCKED! that these fools are on a kamikaze mission on health care…that is the whole problem with this group, they have no ‘off’ switch, no ‘self-preservation’ mode….why?
four words for you…Nancy Pelosi and Andy Stern.
IMO Nancy Pelosi helped ‘select’ Obama and Andy Stern (SEIU) funded him and proivded the busloads of ‘caucus’ voters and rally crowds coast to coast.
They are calling in the debt IMO and this is why Obama will not listen to Rahm and do the scaled down bill.
PLEASE CALL YOUR CRITTERS. Let them know reconciliation is not an option the American people accept on this massive bill that we have said N-O to, over and over and over again.
WSJ covers the arrogance of these pseudo intellectual, social engineering, elitist toolz here.
Obama actually appointed Stern to his ‘deficit reduction commission’, pffft!!! Does he think we are BLIND or what??
Update: Agenda released; Health care: list of GOP Senators who will attend *Thursday’s* WH PR event released…
Update 3: Jon Kyl R-AZ talks about what he expects at Thursday’s dog and pony show:
PoliticoPulse has the agenda up:

b. They’ll then move to discussions around four themes:

ii. Insurance reforms – introduced by Secretary Sebelius
iii. Reducing the deficit – introduced by the Vice President
iv. Expanding coverage – introduced by the President
2. Logistics

b. There will be a break for lunch. Buffet lunch will be provided for guests.
4. Attendance

Update 2: TPMDC has the list of Senate Dems:
The Senate Democrats attending the meeting were also announced this week: Sens. Harry Reid, Dick Durbin, Chuck Schumer, Patty Murray, Max Baucus, Chris Dodd, Tom Harkin, Jay Rockefeller and Kent Conrad….
Sounds like a group that can more than hold their own on the issue, Grassley was part of the endless Baucus wrangling, as was Kyl, Barasso and Coburn are M.D.s, Enzi has been wrangling the bill on the HELP Cmte for a year also,…
KJLo at TheCorner has it:

Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., Senate Republican Whip
Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., Senate Republican Conference Chairman
Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, Ranking Member Senate Finance Committee
