More than 10,000 Cheering Proud Americans Meet the Tea Party Express in New Lenox, Illinois!

The local authorities tell us that there were ”more than 10,000″ in attendance and that traffic was so heavy getting off the expressway that they had to close it down!   Many of those there said that they were there because they “know Obama”!

The crowd dwarfed our Sacramento send-off (5,000) and did it without being crashed by the  industrial, heavily subsidized corporate welfare special interests that took over the stage in Sacto and tried to push the working Americans there off the program (literally, CHP hauled one of them away after they phsyically assaulted one of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association officials because they mentioned the Tea Party Express.  The HJTA  paid for the rally.)

(more on that story and the danger presented by a trio of moles - 2 from Nevada County on the Tea Party Patriots’ board and one on a Sacramento radio station in a later post… I am preparing a detailed article on their continuing efforts to sabotage the Patriots for the  Sacramento Citizen  that will also post here and will name names.)

Here are some of the scenes from New Lenox!

    I found this event exhilarating. I am so proud to have been a part it.

    We need stand up for our existing freedoms that could be taken away so easily.

    Contrary to what Mr. Obama preaches, doctors do not support his plan. (Only 27% of physicians are members of the American Medical Association [AMA] -
    the AMA is falsely representing the majority of physicians.) With Mr. Obama’s plan, physicians will see, on average, a 20-30% decrease in their incomes as of 1/1/10 due to Medicare cuts… some physicians will experience more substantial decreases. As malpractice costs continue to rise – and the option of tort reform is ignored – don’t expect your doctors to stand by silently. Soon, the physicians will start rejecting all government plans, including Medicare.

    How does this affect you? You will not have access to the care that you have grown accustomed. In addition, access to diagnostic testing – such as stress tests, echocardiograms, MRIs, CTs – will be significantly reduced, as Medicare
    is cutting reimbursement in these areas up to 40%. The convenience of completing these tests in physician offices will no longer be – instead, expect long delays waiting for these tests, which will only be available at hospitals. Be prepared; this will result in patients suffering adverse outcomes while waiting to receive these services.

    Will the promise of adequate medical care be fulfilled as more physicians opt out of Medicare? You decide.
