America’s Eyes on St. Louis
I received this email from Prudent Patriot of Austin, Texas, even before we announced our plans:
Y’all do know, don’t you, that the public is banned from attending Obama’s 3,588th Health Care Rally in St Louis tomorrow…???
All the more reason that the good people from St Lou’s TEA community need to protest outside the event, and do whatever possible to have the local TV/Radio cover this blacked out event w/ our nation’s highest ranked public servant…
We in the St. Louis Metro area are PROUD to be called upon, once again, to state our case—that our children have a right to self-government, to pursue happiness on their own terms, to live free and honorable lives according to their best judgment. Once again, we in the heartland have the opportunity tell this President and his comrades McCaskill and Carnahan that we intend to keep our freedom—that if the people are unfit to rule their own lives, who among us is fit to rule someone else?
We Expect to be Heard
At the times and places described below and in other places on this site, we will gather as free men and women to tell this President, a servant by law and a ruler in his own imagination, that our will trumps his on all matters of domestic policy. We will express our disgust at his rude ignorance of our desires. We will politely ask him to shut up for once and listen to the people.
We Will Conduct Ourselves with Honor
With the eyes of America on St. Louis, we grassroots conservatives will, again, display behavior that our parents and our children will be proud of. We will not bait those who disagree with us, and we will not respond to their taunts. We will, as always, support the St. Louis Police Department and other law enforcement officers who are risking their lives to protect the President and us. They will, I am confident, treat us all fairly. And we should all return the favor.
We Will Surround Them
In addition to the email from Texas, patriots from Salem, Springfield, Alton, and Quincy, Illinois, have committed to making the trip to St. Louis, some promising to attend ALL events during the day. We have friends from as far as Springfield in Missouri who are making the trek to St. Charles and St. Louis. We will be on KTVI Fox 2 tomorrow in the 7:00 a.m. hour to talk about our mission for today.
Please Join Us
First Event: Rep. Todd Akin has done a great job putting together a rally at the St. Charles Convention Center starting at 9:45 a.m. This rally will include some of Congress’s staunches defenders of freedom via satellite, and many Missouri conservative leaders will be speaking locally. RiteOn.org has a great story on this event.
Second Event: President Obama will be at St. Charles High School at 3:30 p.m. I do not know if anyone’s put together a demonstration, so if you know of one, please put the details in the comments.
Grand Finale: The Renaissance Hotel downtown. 5:00 to about 7:00 p.m. For those who’ve responded to the call for volunteers, Thank you. I tried to reply to everyone who’s emailed that they’ll be there, but I just ran out of time. We also want as many people as possible with signs to demonstrate our values and dreams for keeping America great, prosperous, and free. So grab your signs and Gadsden Flags. I have not received instructions on locations from the St. Louis Police Department, but please assemble in the area they designate. The other side will also have a designated protest area. We don’t want another incident like Carnahan’s town hall in August.
Thank you. Let’s make March 10, 2010, a great day for St. Louis, for mid-America, and for freedom.

God Bless you all…I wish I was able to be there or at least figure out how to hear the speeches and see the crowd, that I hear is huge!
I do have several comments about the video clip of Beck and Luntz. I watched this particular show when it aired, I don’t remember when, and I was offended then that they, FNC, wanted to tell us what to put on our signs–this gives credence to the accusations that FNC is part of the ‘controlled opposition’ to the Tea Party movement.
Beck himself fell from his own ‘Refounder’ pedestal after he shot Repub. Texas candidate for Governor, Debra Medina, down for being a ‘wild-eyed 9/11 Truther’ nutjob when there was no proof–heck, he believed anonymous callers rather than to what Debra was saying…He goes out of his way to use Rules for Radicals against those of us who know the truth about Obama–the Fraud In Chief and it is far more than a non-existent long form birth certificate…
Just like 98% of the media, they will be on the wrong side of history and will be found complicit in the biggest scam ever to be perpetrated on the American People. We must take back our media, our Gov’t, our Republic. We can’t allow these tyrants to get away with their treasonous lies.
Constantly praying for America’s restoration,
Christine
Just spoke with the STL police about President Obama’s visit to Renaissance Hotel this evening. No protest location forthcoming; all being handled by Secret Service; no public information available.
On my way downtown for a recon visit.
Thought the gathering downtown tonight was a good showing. We have to keep the pressure on. We MUST stop the health bill.
I consider myself a Centrist Democrat and agree w/ most of the Tea Party stance but not all of it.I agree that Washington Ploiticians are not listening and are out of control,that being said there are 2 things we can all do to rectify that situation. 1st – go Tax Exempt on our payroll withholdings (its legal and sends a clear message that we don’t trust Washington with our tax dollars) 2nd – vote ALL the incumbents out regardless of party affiliation. The reason why ALL incumbents and not this one or that one is the handlers in Washington remain the same regardless of who is in office or what party they are with. Something like 90% of the Congress is up for re-election in November and everyone agrees Congress is not working for the American people so clear ALL of them out with a no confidence voter campaign – lets FIRE them! we have that right at the polls in November. It will send a clear message that business as usual in Washington will no longer be tolerated. Government regulation has nearly strangled growth in this country to a stand still – but unbridled capitalism is what caused the financial markets to tank as well and that was done by Bill Clinton and a Republican Congress. So balance is needed not a shout down match between the extreme right or the socialist left. Relying on polar opposites won’t solve our problems – making Government and our elected officials accountable will. Everyone wants a livable wage and a good portion of the country doesn’t have that. A service sector economy only works with a robust Middle Class that has a portion of disposable income and that has been stressed to the breaking point. Blue and white collar union jobs helped to grow the middle class to and unprecedented % after WW2 and drove our economy for decades but those labor and insurance costs are a liability now. That being said we can never compete wwith China’s .81 cents an hour factory wage to our $23.45 p/hr rate. And now Indonesia and Vietnam are under cutting that to 39 cents p/hr. America needs to be more nationalistic in its approach. I am not an isolationist but we give far too much away trying to buy allies around the world and play Global Police with our military. The Military is suppose to be for our defense and not to advancce political stategies through force. If the Tea Party wants to be more than a sound bite on the evening news it needs to embrace what is best for the bulk of Americans and advance sound long term policies for eceonomic recovery, not simply define itself by what it opposses.
Just my thoughts on a few things – Donald E
No I disagree. Why penalize Todd Akin who is doing an excellent job.
Your idea of voting everybody out is ridiculous.
You should vote out those who are NOT doing what is right.
You should keep those who are.
I would like Claire McCaskill to get the message that she is OUT in 2012. I think it would be a neat idea to make those windshield covers (cardboard things you put in the windshield of your car in the summer to make it less hot when it is parked for hours) with DUMP CLAIRE McCASKILL in 2012! Send her a photo of the car or cars (license plates blurred). I would love to get the message to her that we want her dumped and don’t care who opposes her. I also think we should advertise against her NOW ….so the idea is out there. Why wait til an event? How dare she and the senate sneak that bill through on Christmas? She refuses to answer questions and everyone I know gets the same bogus form letters in response to emails. She simply does NOT care what anybody in Missouri thinks. She is determined to stick by Obama’s side.
This is the SHOW ME STATE………..LET’s SHOW HER!
