Guest guest Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Everyone who is against socialized medicine (which I assume is most of us) should attend! What a great opportunity to spread the message regarding raw, ripe, organic, fresh, & live! The following is a reminder from Seattle Tea Party organizer Keli Carender ( " Liberty Belle " ) about the Seattle Tea Party Counter-Protest Against Socialized Medicine, scheduled for 1:00 pm PDT TODAY (Saturday May 30). I strongly endorse this event, and urge you all to participate. Feel free to forward and/or share widely as appropriate! FROM LIBERTY BELLE: The Seattle Sons & Daughters of Liberty: A Seattle Action Network Tomorrow We March Against Socialized Medicine: What You Need to Know In this message: Location/Time, What to Bring, Sign Ideas, Safety, and Theme Ideas. Location/Time We are meeting across Pine St. from Westlake Park. This is the north side of Pine, in between 4th and 5th Avenue. Our opposition has the permit for the park which is why we will congregate across the street from them. We will begin to meet at about 1:00 p.m. so that we are there before they arrive - a welcome wagon of sorts... What to Bring Signs (I have listed some ideas and suggestions below) Something to sit on if you need it - we may be there for approximately three hours Something to eat and drink, i.e. energy bars and water because again, we may be there for a few hours Sign Ideas Less Government is the Answer Single Payer is Single Worst Solution Health Care is Expensive BECAUSE of the Government! Doctor's Chains You Can Believe In Socialized Medicine - the False Hope Support Sustainable Options! Left Turn - Wrong Way Tax Increase Not the Answer Free Market Options We Support Better Solutions Health Care is Not a Right </serfdom> The road to serfdom is well paved for your safety My Body, My Choice! Keep healthcare between me and my doctor Healthcare is a private issue The fed couldn't manage its way out of a *casket* Free Choice in Medicine A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have. - Thomas Jefferson What the they pay for, they own. What happens when they pay for your body? No Bureaucrats in My Body Don't Let Govt Hands Infect Our Health Care U.S. Economy Already on Life Support Portability Yes, Socialization No Ask a Veteran: Are You Happy With Govt Health Care? National Markets for Health Insurance Get Health Insurance Out of the Workplace & Into the Marketplace Medicare for All = Death of America If Govt Run Health Care Is So Cheap, Why Is Medicare So Expensive? Ask Jim McDermott about his elitist medical care Ask Patty Murray about her elitist medical care Safety I have personally spoken with the Seattle Police Department and my contact there has assured me that we are welcome to show our opposition and that they are prepared to handle the volume of people expected. I obviously cannot guarantee that nothing will happen, but I feel very confident that the day will run smoothly. If anyone from the opposition tries to engage you, simply ignore them, walk away, hand them a flyer (we will have some to hand out), or find a police officer. DO NOT ENGAGE THEM BACK. We are better than that. Theme Ideas IF you are interested, you can dress up in either typical " funeral " attire (dark and formal), or you can dress up like a doctor or a nurse in chains. Otherwise just dress as usual! We have at least a couple of bagpipers to help us along! We plan on singing Amazing Grace and the National Anthem. You can find the words to Amazing Grace here. Please use today as a final push for this. We need as many bodies as we can get!! Please help us stop the horrific monstrosity that is rationed, poor quality, socialized medicine. Once this is let out of the cage, you know we will never be able to put it back. The fight is here and the fight is now. Will you face it with us? In Liberty, always and forever, Liberty Belle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Well you just might be assuming wrong. There are several countries that provide health care to everyone for free, including visitors from other countries. I don't have any kind of health insurance because I CAN'T FREAKING AFFORD IT. I for one would like to see a different system. _____ On Behalf Of Jim Casale-Health Saturday, May 30, 2009 10:22 AM FW: Sat 5/30 - Tea Party Counter-Protest Against Socialized Medicine Everyone who is against socialized medicine (which I assume is most of us) should attend!

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 I lived the last 24 years without health insurance and only have had it the last five years since going back to work in the school system. I haven't used it, at all. I'm helping to pay for the folks who run there every week and are on 17 different medications (a bus driver where I work). Yes, a different system is needed. One that rewards us that are exercising and eating correctly. Maybe some credit? Of course they wouldn't deem us as eating " correctly " because where do we get our protein! You can't live on fresh fruits and vegetables!! Oh, don't get me started on this! Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
