This is great-the people exercising their freedom of speech!!! How much coverage do you think the leftist main stream media will have on this?
A group of self-described revolutionary-style patriots with a million mobilized militia members are heading to downtown Washington, D.C., this week to bring a simple message to political leadership, from President Obama to House Speaker John Boehner: Get out.
They’re called the Operation American Spring — and they’re vowing to oust the likes of Mr. Obama, Mr. Boehner, Attorney General Eric Holder, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Sen. Mitch McConnell, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Vice President Joseph R. Biden, Raw Story reported.

“We are calling for [their] removal … as a start toward constitutional restoration,” said retired Army Col. Harry Riley, the leader of the group, Raw Story reported. “They have all abandoned the U.S. Constitution, are unworthy to be retained in a position that calls for servant status.”
The aim of the group, too, is to influence those politicos who aren’t targeted for ouster to “sponsor and pass very constitutionally crafted state legislation to dissolve the size, powers, scope and spending of the U.S. government by two-thirds,” the media outlet reported.
The group expects between 10 million and 30 million similarly thinking Americans to meet them in the capital on Friday for a rally that’s being billed as a sort of “Arab Spring” for Americans.
Meanwhile, the group is holding another event on the same day in Bunerkville, Nev., near cattle rancher Cliven Bundy’s property and in support of his stand-off with the Bureau of Land Management over grazing fees.
The Friday event was promoted by Tea Party Nation.
Col. Riley said he hopes the event will go forward peaceably, but that so far, peaceful protests haven’t brought citizens much luck. He also said that more than 1 million militia members have already mobilized for the event — and that projections of 10 million to attend aren’t pie in the sky.

“For more than five years, ‘we the people’ have been writing, calling, faxing Congress, the media, screaming in town halls, marching, rallying, demonstrating, petitioning, all to no avail,” he said, Raw Story reported. “Every branch of government looks at ‘we the people’ whom they have taken an oath to serve, as ‘pests,’ interfering with their political agenda, cramping their self-serving, greedy agendas. We have no faith in the ballot box any longer, as many believe this sacred secret box has been compromised.

rachel is a pretty gal who can't tell anyone how the economy works.
~So, ACC... today was the day that "a group of self-described revolutionary-style patriots with a million mobilized militia members are heading to downtown" to supposedly oust President Obama & company... well... as I predicted earlier on this thread, less than a thousand of these stuck on stupid, fear-porn addicts, showed up for this transparent Teapublican stunt. Too funny...
*yes... that's the entire group, guys. & make no mistake about it,
some media actually showed up, there just wasn't anything to cover.
Operation American Spring: Tens of protesters showed up to take Obama out of office
May 16, 2014 - By Anomaly
Operation America Spring is underway and the only thing missing are the 30 million protesters the organizers promised us. Every livefeed was a dud and only lasted for a few minutes, but we did get a few screenshots. I only expected about 10 old dudes to make an appearance at this revolution, shaking their canes at the White House, insisting Obummer come out with his Kenyan hands up, but much to my surprise, I spotted tens of protesters.
This guy showed up wrapped in the flag, of course... ;-)
Nuff said!!!
ha ha ha LOL Pretty funny. Wonder if any of our ACC gun toting Obummer hating brethren were there?
revolution with less than 1.000 protesters..................now , thats funny. Only in Amerika
Semile: So I am quick to anger? Why does that bother you? You are quick to NIT-PICKING. (i.e. my capitol letters). THERE IS NOT LOGIC IN RACHAEL MADDOW.. She is a MIND-CONTROLLER. Well, maybe you're not "pissed off" but you appear to be. I almost always address people by name when I write to them. Watch, watch, watch.
+10
I'd say RM is doing a great job, Semile, if darkstar's reaction is any indication. LOL She types in capitals and tells you to take a chill pill. LOLOL
Good on you for taking the highroad and not falling for the goad.
For your information darkstar. I do not tattle...I've actually read the rules for ACC posting that Ben has outlined and every member should have already read by the time their a member but many of you refuse to follow so that's on you.
Only a childish person types in capitals. LOL
Wasn't going to write to you, but I think I must since you talked about me: Talk about taking the "high road" - I remember one of your comments to another member saying Ben Arion doesn't like this, and Ben Arion doesn't like that, in regards to something they wrote: TATTLE TALE. (Now THAT'S taking the "high road") You are an EXTREMELY CHILDISH person with your nonsensical LOL's, etc and talking about other people - GROW UP. Always taking sides like a CHILD, that's how WARS START, and by taking about other people "in their presence" you show how RUDE you are.
Semile: I have logically presented my argument. If you love her so much, why don't you marry her? If I wasn't addressing YOU, WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM? We have a RIGHT to express our views here, if you don't like it, you don't like it. I backed up my "repetitive rhetoric". I like to use capitol letters. That is MY BUSINESS. That is how I chose to EXPRESS MYSELF. If you do not like it, do not read what I write. Name-calling, ( in certain circumstances), is NECESSARY. In CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES name-calling will detract from an argument though. I think what you're pissed off about is the fact that I said the sheeple would fall for her. DEAL WITH IT. And a "no offense" isn't good enough for you? Take a chill pill or do SOMETHING ELSE. These SLIME have to be called out for what they are - people have to WAKE UP!
LOL
