Obama's Link to make an Appointment to Visit Your Representative
And here's the site to sign up:

http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/o...ice_lookup

Obviously this is an effort by a lobbying organization, to manufacture concern about the health care legislation, and to drive supporters of Obama to get out and visit their congressmen's offices.

This came as an email to me, soliciting my participation. So the fact I'm going is due to someone trying to manufacture my interest in going. Just keep that in mind when the democrats and media state how this is what's happening with the anti-health care sentiment at the town halls.

There are times blocked-off, hourly, throughout the week for you to go by your congressman's or senator's office and let them know how you feel. Obviously, this was intended to drive Obama's supporters to these visits.

But I see no reason why anyone-- Democrat or Republican, shouldn't be able to use this site to sign up for meetings.

At the bottom right of the white space on this page, underneath the scheduled times to visit, you can change the screen to sign you up for anywhere in the entire country, by clicking on the link there that says (Looking for a different office? Click Here). Then you can enter your home zip code to schedule a time to drop in your Congressman's, or Senator's office.

My guess is that you're not actually scheduling an appointment with your representative, but that you'll be able to see someone there. But who knows, maybe it will be your own representative? Regardless, Obama's lobbying group, will believe that all who schedule times, will be people that are supportive of his plan. And if you are, fine. But if you're not, then that should also be fine, right?

And who knows, you might even get to see your representative.

I've already scheduled my time and day this week. Why don't you do the same thing too? Just be sure to let whoever you get to see at your representative's office, know that the reason you came was because of Obama's lobbying effort to get you there, and/but you want to tell them what you think on your own, about the reform.

Here's the link to schedule your appointment time: http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/o...ice_lookup

One final thing-- COPY THIS EMAIL and SEND IT TO ALL YOU KNOW ACROSS THE COUNTRY. Explain how they can use this to visit their own representative's office, in their own district.

From the link:

"Use the form to the right to sign up to visit your local congressional district office and show your support for health insurance reform.

Choose a day and time to sign up this week -- we want to have someone at each office throughout the day all throughout the week.

After you sign up, we’ll provide you with all the materials and guidance you'll need for a successful visit."

I am so glad that there is NO DOUBLE STANDARD here and the Suc-Ass-Lib's aren't "Organizing" to travel to see Congressmen about the Obamaic Health Care Bill.

At least we have one honest and Altruistic Bunch in Washington DC.

Email from President to his organizers:

This is the moment our movement was built for.

For one month, the fight for health insurance reform leaves the backrooms of Washington, D.C., and returns to communities across America. Throughout August, members of Congress are back home, where the hands they shake and the voices they hear will not belong to lobbyists, but to people like you.

Home is where we're strongest. We didn't win last year's election together at a committee hearing in D.C. We won it on the doorsteps and the phone lines, at the softball games and the town meetings, and in every part of this great country where people gather to talk about what matters most. And if you're willing to step up once again, that's exactly where we're going to win this historic campaign for the guaranteed, affordable health insurance that every American deserves.

There are those who profit from the status quo, or see this debate as a political game, and they will stop at nothing to block reform. They are filling the airwaves and the internet with outrageous falsehoods to scare people into opposing change. And some people, not surprisingly, are getting pretty nervous. So we've got to get out there, fight lies with truth, and set the record straight.

That's why Organizing for America is putting together thousands of events this month where you can reach out to neighbors, show your support, and make certain your members of Congress know that you're counting on them to act.

But these canvasses, town halls, and gatherings only make a difference if you turn up to knock on doors, share your views, and show your support. So here's what I need from you:

Can you sign up to attend an event near you?

In politics, there's a rule that says when you ask people to get involved, always tell them it'll be easy. Well, let's be honest here: Passing comprehensive health insurance reform will not be easy. Every President since Harry Truman has talked about it, and the most powerful and experienced lobbyists in Washington stand in the way.

But every day we don't act, Americans watch their premiums rise three times faster than wages, small businesses and families are pushed towards bankruptcy, and 14,000 people lose their coverage entirely. The cost of inaction is simply too much for the people of this nation to bear.

So yes, fixing this crisis will not be easy. Our opponents will attack us every day for daring to try. It will require time, and hard work, and there will be days when we don't know if we have anything more to give. But there comes a moment when we all have to choose between doing what's easy, and doing what's right.

This is one of those times. And moments like this are what this movement was built for. So, are you ready?

Let's seize this moment and win this historic victory for our economy, our health and our families.

Thank you,

President Barack Obama

Exactly what these arseholes have been complaining about. The truth is you can lie, cheat, steal, you can organize and pay folks, you can show up with goons and intimidate, if it's for a liberal or one of their commie causes. But by god if anyone else does the same, they must be threatened with internment and re-education.
