Congress Runs/Hides from Citizen Outrage to OBAMACARE
Steve Elliott
Following the massive grassroots citizen barrage of Capitol Hill which succeeded in slowing the rush to ObamaCare, citizens are now taking their outrage directly to Members of Congress.
As Members head home for their August recess, citizens are showing up in droves at town hall meetings and protesting ObamaCare.
At a recent meeting, Sen. Arlen Specter faced blunt opposition as he attempted to defend socialized healthcare. Things are getting so tense for members of Congress that at least one member of Congress has suspended town hall meetings because he "felt they would be pointless."
Go here to see the citizen confrontation with Sen. Specter:

+ + Action: Operation August Recess Blitz!
Grassfire is launching a grassroots Blitz to equip you to tell your members of Congress, while they are home on recess, precisely where you stand on ObamaCare and their government-run plan.
We are encouraging the Grassfire Nation to attend town hall meetings with members of Congress or schedule an appointmentat the office closest to you.
+ + Step One: Call Your Congressmen
We will be coordinating the information on events and appointments through our ResistNet.com site. But first, we need your help to identify each and every town hall meeting taking place in your area:
Call your Members of Congress and find out when they are
holding town hall events this month:
+ + Step Two: Share Intel With Other Grassfire Team Members
When calling, be polite but persistent. We are hearing reports of other members of Congress who have conveniently not scheduled town hall meetings this month due to the pressure they are feeling. If your member of Congress does not have a town hall meeting,
then set up an "appointment."
Once you have identified your local town hall meetings or have set up an appointment, post that information for other Grassfire team members on your state’s ResistNet page. Go here to find your state group:
http://www.grassfire.net/r.asp?U=20690&RID=21458445
Here you can coordinate with other local citizens who will be having appointments or attending town hall meetings.
If you have not yet joined ResistNet go here:

+ + Step Three: Help Deliver Grassfire Petitions!
Finally, we want to have citizens like YOU hand-deliver Grassfire's petition opposing ObamaCare to members of Congress this month -- at these meetings in your area!
Grassfire will be making our petitions available for our team members to personally deliver to their members of Congress. But the first step is to identify these meetings and then coordinate through ResistNet.
So please...
Call your members of Congress and then share your intel on upcoming town hall meetings with our Grassfire team throughResistNet.
