Organizing for America left the Electric Union building in Phoenix tonight to tour America in a custom designed and painted bus in an effort to counter the grassroots movement against Obama's socialized healthcare bill. Participates were lined up to sign in and receive a bottle of water and a sign to be used for the camera's. Pro healthcare was chanting we want healthcare reform when we want it now. If you looked like you could have Medicare or Social Security they walked up and wanted to know if you would give it up and payback what you have received.
Grassroot protesters received notice 24 hours prior to the rally to get your signs together don't forget to bring water and let's roll. For short notice temp of 108 we made a very good showing. Every time they
chanted we want healthcare now we shouted NEVER. Police had closed off part of a very busy street and keeping the 2 groups on separate sides of the street for the most part. There was one very nice young man who disagreed with us but stood side by side chatting about what was happening.
NEWS ALERT: http://teapartyexpress.org/
U.S. News & World Reports revealed today that Barack Obama's "Organizing for America" is launching a national bus tour to counter your efforts as a supporter of the "Tea Party Express."
It is another indication that our efforts to fight back are working. We are going to stand up against the big-government liberalism of out-of-control spending, higher taxes, bailouts, and a socialistic expansion of the power, control and intrusiveness of government.This Friday we will officially launch the "Tea Party Express" bus tour - a tour we've been planning for the past 3 months.
