		<description><![CDATA[Attention snitches, tattle-tale-ers and Acorn members - The Whitehouse needs your help to identify people that disagree with Obama.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Have you heard about this yet?  The Whitehouse has a website (whitehouse.gov), and they have a blog on this website.  There&#8217;s an article posted on August 4th; the gist of the article is complaining that opponents of government health care are saying things that the government believes are untrue about the plan, and they want you to turn them in!  This was copied right from the website;</p>
	<blockquote><p>&#8220;Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
	<p>What kind of crap is this?  Is the Whitehouse telling me that I no longer actually have a right to free speech?  Or are they just afraid that the message explaining that the only way this government health-care can possibly be funded is by rationing care.  You must have heard Obama speaking to a group and explaining how some old lady needing a hip replacement should instead receive pain pills and end of life counseling.  How much clearer can he make it?</p>
	<p>And what about Obama&#8217;s health-care advisers (not cabinet members, but untouchable czars and advisers.)  They include Zeke Emanuel (who is also the brother of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel) wrote an entire article on this subject in the Lancet on January 31, 2009. Emanuel advocated allocating health resources in order to maximize collective life years. Suppose a 25-year-old and a 65-year-old have a life threatening disease. Since the 25-year-old has many more potential years of life ahead of him, he should receive preferential treatment, says Emanuel.  If that doesn&#8217;t stink of eugenics (social engineering &#8211; also see Nazi Germany), well, it does.</p>
	<p>Oh, how about Obama’s Science Czar John Holdren?  He&#8217;s the guy who wants to put a sterilizing agent in our drinking water! </p>
	<p>Holy Crap!  The ugliness of this administration is really coming into view.</p>
	<p><strong>I&#8217;m</strong> a radical?  <strong>I&#8217;m </strong>a danger to the country?  Those courageous people taking their Senators and Congressmen to task at townhall meetings, demanding explanation and clarification from their representatives are extremeists?  I don&#8217;t think so.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>As a resident of Ohio and a citizen concerned about the dismantling of our country I have particular interest in Senator Sherrod Brown.  Senator Brown has voted consistently the wrong way in my opinion.  Now, there&#8217;s evidence bubbling up about Brown&#8217;s connections with ACORN.</p>
	<p><a href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/07/22/gop-congressional-report-accuses-acorn-political-corruption-widespread-fraud/">From FoxNews.com</a></p>
	<blockquote><p> </p>
	<p>ACORN engaged in a scheme to use taxpayer money to support a partisan political agenda, according to a new report from Republicans on a House oversight committee.The report, released Thursday, accuses ACORN of fraudulent activities and widespread corruption and calls for a criminal investigation into the advocacy group. It offers the first detailed account of the allegations that have dogged the organization in recent months.</p>
	<p>ACORN, or the Association of Community Organizations for Reform, has been under constant fire from conservatives since last year for its support of Barack Obama’s presidential candidacy and its planned participation in next year’s 2010 census.</p>
	<p>The report was released by Rep. Darrell Issa, the top Republican on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and Issa’s GOP colleagues.</p>
	<p>“This report is about getting to the truth and when there are significant accusations and questions outstanding regarding an organization that has benefited from millions of taxpayer dollars, those questions should be answered and the truth should be brought to light,” Issa said in a statement.</p>
	<p>The executive summary of the report says ACORN provided contributions of financial and personnel resources to indicted former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, <strong>Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown</strong> and candidate Obama, among others, in what the report calls a scheme to use taxpayer money to support a partisan political agenda, which would be a clear violation of numerous tax and election laws.</p></blockquote>

		<description><![CDATA[American citizens from coast to coast are beginning to stir, they are finding their voice and demanding to be heard!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>While a handful of Acorn drones got plenty of exposure while they went on bus tours of former AIG employees there are thousands of people attending tea parties, protests and rallies across the country that you&#8217;ll never see on TV.</p>
	<p>American citizens from coast to coast are beginning to stir, they are finding their voice and demanding to be heard! </p>
	<p>This really quite exciting to be a part of it, to experience the energy, to watch it all come together. </p>
	<p>While it&#8217;s great to see all the activity, it&#8217;s important to note that we&#8217;ve only begun.  We need to keep stirring the bucket, talking to friends and co-workers, attending rallies, calling Congress. </p>
	<p>I can see we&#8217;re already having some effect.  Arlen Specter has said that he will NOT support the Card Check Bill; that&#8217;s huge.  We now have enough on the right side (assuming we all stick together on this) and filibuster and kill it.
