Oh, and I wanted to add this, too. Signs should say things like "YES, I want Health Care Reform. NO, I don't want ObamaCare! Have YOU read this bill?". Stuff that allows us not to be painted into a tiny corner of the population and dismissed.
Most of the message board commentators on news sites clearly are out to purposely create the false impression that the protestors are all Neo-Con diehard GOP to the bone supporters.

This stuff is getting out of control. I love the analogy about the pot being boiled too quickly and the Frogs realizing it. I don't know about you guys, but I think this is just the beginning of things.
I saw a great article talking about Health Care. It's written by a guy who voted for Kerry over Bush in 2004, and pretty much destroys all insinuating arguments posted by those in favor of ObamaCare on message boards. Check it out here. It's brilliant, scathing, and dead-on, IMHO.
Last night, I switched over to Rachel Maddow's show, and saw her using the term "anti-health care reformers". Terrible. I was disgusted. I feel we are all being manipulated by both parties in evident and blantant ways to such a degree rarely seen before in this country's history. We need homemade signs that clearly say "Bush sucks! Prosecute Cheney for War Crimes! ObamaCare sucks! Bring our Troops Home!".
We need not allow the GOP to shoe-horn us into this one message of ObamaCare sucks. We need to not play their game, but use the publicity present at these events to shout out the freedom message and wake some more people's eyes up. Most of the message board commentators on news sites clearly are under the impression that the protestors are all Neo-Con diehard GOP to the bone supporters. There are ways that we can spread this message effectively and peacefully, and then there are other ways, which include pursuing the BC angle, which IMHO is a well-intentioned but misguided avenue that takes energy away from what those who support the freedom movement are trying to do.
We need to continue hammering home ALL three or four of our core messages at these events, or else we're just playing right into the Republicrats hands. At this rate, things inch closer and closer to martial law and a police state. Change, baby. Change.
It is quite clear to me that the agenda now is to use provocateurs in order to insight violence at these peaceful protests and gatherings. We must be extremely vigilant and watchful. Also, we need to shed as much light on these people as possible. Film them and put it on youtube ASAP. All effort should be used to identify and publicly display and denounce these people.
A useful tool when it looks like violence will ensue is to sit down. If everyone sits quietly, agents will be easy to spot.
Good post. Almost perfect, but there was one thing I noticed:
But I fixed it for you.
I hope this is on Beck tonight. Lets make sure it is.

Well I suppose I'd be painting myself into a corner, but I'll just have to let my freak flag fly w/ this sign...
I'm neither Republicrat
nor Democan,
I'm an Independent!
If you were too you wouldn't need
ObamaCare!
SEIU thugs huh....
New footage! Union member who attacked the black conservative handing out flags says he attacked him becuase "he attacked America"!
My friend Kelly, who is recording and a member of CFL, is attacked in this video as well
That's it. Obama literally called out the union dogs to push back. They're a violent organization by nature. There's no point in pretending otherwise.
They got the call and they responded and now, we have people being beaten up.

Yes, Obama did call these thugs out.
