NJ Common Sense

Chants for “Kill the Bill” and Nancy! Nancy! from thousands standing in line to enter the US House of Representative  Cannon Building echo in the streets. Similar lines occurred at the  Longworth and Rayburn office building on November 5, 2009 following a rally outside Capitol.

Kill The Bill Chants From Protesters In Line for House Cannon Office Building

Protesters orderly and vocal waited patiently to enter the building. Security was tight but very efficient at processing everyone. Still it took 2 hours to get most into the building.

Kill The Bill! Kill The Bill!
When “suits” exited the Cannon building, protesters in line began chanting “Kill The Bill” regardless of who might be in the suits. They wanted desperately to communicate with law makers who were scarce.

Nancy! Nancy! Nancy!
In between the chit chat among the line waiters, chants of Nancy! Nancy! referring to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. She is supposed to have offices in the Cannon building. However everyone in line was convinced she had isolated herself from robust feedback from the country with hoisting ill conceived bills on us. Some from South Jersey reported they did get into her office, signed their names and added the message “Kill The Bill”.

Security and Other Staff Report House Calls Unprecedented
Most who I talked to from security to staff said they have never seen anything like this in DC. You can see in the video the Longworth building balcony caught white shirted workers looking down at the event. That focused attention on the windows of the Longworth building and we noticed heads bob in and out and many windows were opened. We guessed they were opened because the building was too hot. But gee we are asked to cut our energy and they have the audacity to allow heat to escape. I give credit to security to their efficiency of processing everyone expeditiously and politely at the Cannon building entrance.

Watch The Kill The Bill And Nancy Nancy! Chants

10.2% Unemployment Predicts How Health Bill Will Fail
Democrats were tallying the jobless while the protesters were in line. Today the number 10.2% is out and if you ran out of unemployment benefits or are an independent contractor out of work you are not in that number. The Democrat gigantic, biggest in history and more than combined spending of previous Congress’s, jobs stimulus bill has failed. Democrat representatives have had to come up with open lies to support its colossal failure . [See Rush Holt 3 Lies About $787 Billion Stimulus] [Just received news alert from visitors at Holt's office in DC 11/5. Audience questions had him RED FACED! This is because he is fronting the lies on stimulus and being in an indefensible position he had to stomp off mad and angry. See Democrats what your life is going to be like for years to come.]

Pelosi Has Democrats on Suicide Mission
Democrats are loaded down with failed Pelosi leadership and forced failing legislation. Pelosi has Democrats cornered in a suicide mission to vote on Saturday November 7th on another colossal failure; a gigantic untried experiment on the Nation’s health care system impacting everybody.  Designed so that when it fails like bankruptcies of gigantic experiments Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and sub prime lending through Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac, everyone gets hurt badly. This will include a loss of jobs starting with those fine people with families who work for insurance companies offering medical insurance. Get resumes out as your next job is with the Government.

Fox You Were Late!
To my surprise on leaving the building the line had dwindled to a few hundred and then Fox news reporter Griff Jenkins finally discovered the big news item happening outside of House office buildings. Griff Jenkins had gotten popular with the first few Tea Party express bus stops reported for Greta Van Susteren. However in my opinion he went down hill after those missing the points and the individual stories of the people for the rest of the tour. However people still love him.

Fox needs to embed reporters into the folks who get up at 3 am to get to DC or travel the previous day to find the good stories  or hire me to do it with a good camera crew rather than my dinky Panasonic that is seeing more that the main media big ones. An ABC news reporter was on our bus down getting first hand accounts I am sure ABC will twist against us if they bother at all.

Modern Minute Men
Police estimated between 50,000 to 75,000 at the Capitol Building. Everyone was called to action within 72 hours of the event. Even Pelosi is not giving 72 hours to read her bound to fail big time health bill. Most people traveled 4 to 12 hours one way to attend. They were from Florida, Illinois, Washington State, New Jersey, Virginia, Minnesota and Ohio. Some got on planes, some on trains even Amtrak, some by car, some by two day bus rides.

Just Try Us Democrats!

Do Not Make Us Come Back
I would not want this energy against me if I held a nice cushy House seat. The arsenal of protest exercised is only at level one now. This is the people’s right to speech aimed to steer you in the correct direction. What other rights will they need to deploy to persuade you that your are voting for another colossal failure? Take real heed of these warnings Democrats. You do not want to us come back.
