Just Got Another Orwell Email From the Right
Just got this one. These guys really want to provoke violence. Un-frikkin-believable.

I know this is gross, but I think we need to know what they're saying...

Left-Wing THUGS Attack Americans Opposed to "ObamaCare" -- Click Below to Tell Congress to REJECT Obama's Socialized Health Care


Dear RightMarch.com member,

It's getting ugly out there.

All across the country, left-wing extremists are disrupting congressional town-hall meetings with venomous attacks on anyone who voices their objections to Barack Obama's plans to socialize American health care.
At a town hall meeting with Rep. Kathy Castor in Tampa, Florida, as she was introduced, the reaction was overwhelmingly against her, with boos and chants of "You work for us." In the lobby, you could hear the counter of Planned Parenthood representatives shouting, "Healthcare Now." Shortly thereafter, violence erupted, where three big "goons" came out and started pushing and roughing up the people in line and in the hallway, at one point even using a chokehold on one of the people. Police officers on the scene did nothing to prevent the violence being perpetrated on these citizens trying to exercise their free speech rights -- citizens who far outnumbered those who were allowed to stay. See the videos HERE!

At a town hall meeting with Rep. Russ Carnahan in St. Louis, Missouri, police arrested six people for assaulting constituents who were opposed to the health care takeover. As reported locally, "Kenneth Gladney, 38, a conservative activist from St. Louis, said he was attacked by some of those arrested as he handed out yellow flags with 'Don't tread on me' printed on them. He spoke to the Post-Dispatch from the emergency room at St. John's Mercy Medical Center, where he said he was awaiting treatment for injuries to his knee, back, elbow, shoulder and face. Gladney, who is black, said one of his attackers, also a black man, used a racial slur against him before the attack." See the videos HERE!
Many Representatives have announced they won't be holding any town-hall meetings after seeing that their constituents are OPPOSED to the socialist "ObamaCare".

We've got a plan to fight back against these radical left-wingers. Barack Obama's "Organizing for America" group is sending out Alerts to get their people to come out to townhalls to shout us down with "powerful voices". MoveOn.org has hired skilled "grassroots organizers" -- meaning, people like the union thugs in those videos -- who are working at townhalls across the country to give the impression that there's ANY support for Obama's plans to socialize health care in America. They've built new online tools to track events across the country -- and to make sure MoveOn members turn out at each one.

They're raising hundreds of thousands of dollars to push their far-left agenda, against the true grassroots uprising we're witnessing in America.

WE'RE FIGHTING BACK -- but we need the help of patriotic Americans like YOU to succeed!

Can you chip in a donation today to support our work?



If the bullying tactics of the left-wing goons are successful at suppressing the only true grassroots voices our senators and representatives hear over the recess, we'll have a hard time stopping the socialist plans of Obama, Pelosi and Reid in September.

That's why we're getting the word out about Town Hall meetings across the nation -- we've created a new ad for television and radio, we're sending millions of email to our members to fight back with a strong town hall turnout, we're offering personalized blast faxes to every single member of Congress, and we're activating an energized network of on-the-ground constituents who aren't afraid to speak out against ObamaCare and the bullying tactics of the Left.

This month could decide the future of health care in America-and we're already one week in. If you've been sitting on the sidelines, now's the time to get involved. Talk to your neighbors, go to a town hall meeting-and today, please chip a donation to support our work

Thanks for all you do.

William Greene, President
RightMarch.com PAC

P.S. America needs health care reform. But new government programs, mandates, and price controls would deny patients control over their most important and personal medical decisions -- and it's "reform" that we cannot afford.

THIS ATTEMPT BY LIBERALS IS OUTRAGEOUS -- and it MUST be stopped! If you can, please attend YOUR Congressman's local town hall meeting to make your voice heard. If you can't do that -- or even if you want to do something more -- send your faxes right away to every one of the Congress members' home offices, in all 50 states and all 435 Congressional Districts -- and help us put our new ad on the air across America -- to make sure these Congressmen get a STRONG message, to REJECT the socialized plan of "Obamacare" NOW -- Thank you!


Well, there you have it. Left wing thugs are disrupting town halls. Who knew?

5. Orwell, huh? I wonder if they know that Orwell was a Trotskyite.
A commie, a Red, too far left to be a regular Communist.

8. He definitely understood how everything would be fought via perception management
And as Chomsky says, 'propaganda is to democracy what the bludgeon is to a police state.'

12. That's not the only variable, but one that intertwines w/so many others
The biggest stumbling blocks are indoctrination and denial. Within their social climate people are conditioned to perceive reality through a very specific lens, which makes it much easier, especially w/strength in numbers, to dismiss the idea that millions upon millions of people are simply wrong in their understanding of what actually occurs within our system of governance, and why. Much easier to shoot the messenger and disavow unfavorable data as "conspiracy theory."

This is why the same patterns play out time after time in this brainwashed empire, yet scores of those playing the 'home game' version always find some supposedly level headed rationale as to why the same minority always comes out ahead, while the majority continually gets screwed. Oh no, it's definitely NOT a conspiracy ... lol

(more of a conspiracy of a civilization to keep lying to themselves)

13. Bingo.
We are a long way from developing anything resembling the foundations of an actual functioning democracy. A real democracy would begin with a set of participants taught to think critically and independently. All flows from that. We are not even in the ballpark.

7. Classic case of projection.
They accuse others of everything they themselves perpetrate while claiming their own innocence.

Causing a public disturbance is a misdemeanor civil offense, not a 1st Amendment right.

16. my favorite quote about this
it was in someone's signature here, but the essence of it was "Your honor, I admit I killed my parents but please have mercy on me, sir, as I am an orphan."

That's kind of how I feel about the right wing.
