RUSH: Folks, you know, I very seldom -- as you well know for 21 years -- encourage phone calls and e-mails and letters to members of Congress.  The reason that I don't do it is that I never want the charge to be leveled that whatever response you gave was not genuine, that you had been talked into it or motivated and inspired or manipulated into doing it.  I think it is pedal-to-the-metal time, and even if you have been e-mailing and faxing and calling, I think it's time to intensify it.  You call the local offices. You call the Washington office of these people, the Democrats and so forth.  The Republicans are like Martians: They can't stop this.  The Martians couldn't stop it, the Republicans can't stop it. Not with votes. They don't have the votes to stop it, but you can.  The only reason we are where we are now is because of you, the American people.  That's the truth of the matter.  I normally don't do this, but time to throw down the gauntlet here and really ratchet it up, to go along with all the other pressure that is being brought to bear elsewhere throughout the rest of the media…. 

… The lines are busy. Some people are getting through and some people aren't, but what you can also do is Google "Code Red." Just put in "Code Red." Just search for it. You'll find a website link.  

The Hill reports the results of Rush’s call to arms was: 

"House phone lines were nearing capacity on Tuesday as conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh encouraged fans to call in their objections on healthcare legislation. 

The House e-mail system was also deluged in what the House’s technology office called “a very significant spike” in traffic. 

The office of the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) sent out a system-wide advisory to member offices at 2 p.m. Tuesday, warning them of the dramatic increase in traffic..."

“Our phone system is nearing capacity,” said Jeff Ventura, spokesman for the CAO. “It got critical enough whereby we notified all systems’ administrators throughout the House that the phone systems are overloading.”                                                                                      We conservatives of both parties have been coming together to stop this health care bill from harming our country. Call,email or protest at their local offices. Yesterday we shut down the phone lines at Capitol Hill. Get their direct numbers and call them. Tell your friends to call them. The walls of Jerico came down with noise so lets see what we can dow when we really want something or don't want it. These Progressives in Washington are taking over every private sector they can and then say they aren't socialist. Have they once found a problem that a govenment take over wont fix? We see what they have done to SSI and Medicare and all the other government ponzi scams they have started and are now out of control.

Democrats Are Acting Desperate On Climate And Health Care Reform

The left wing Democrats are acting desperate in both the health care bill and the climate summit. Once they start pushing as hard as they are now on bothe climate and health care we know they have lost. This is the Democrats last chance to push our country into socialism based country like the EU. As a profesional salesman for over 14 years I know a hard sell when I see it. The Democrats know they are giving use some bad bills and they have to make this happen now or it will never happen. They know it will never happen because they know that the truth will come out about the product they are pushing on us. The Democrats know that the lid is coming off and that is why they are pushing for a now or never doomsday type hard sell on us. When the salesperson a gives you the "buy it know" pitch get up and walk away or you will regret your decision. If this health care bill is such a good buy for America why are they so afraid to give us time to read the bill? Lets start seeing these poloticians for what they are, profesional used car salespeople that must make these deal or else. And if they vote yes on a bill we or they have read then in 2010 we must get rid if those snakes.

Liar!!! Abortion Is In The 1,990 pg Healthcare Bill

A national pro-life group is warning members of Congress that a vote in favor of the 1,990-page House healthcare bill is a vote to establish a federal government program that would directly fund abortion-on-demand with taxpayer dollars.


Page 110 of H.R. 3962, the Affordable Health Care for America Act, authorizes a new government health insurance program to pay for all elective abortions.  Douglas Johnson, legislative director for the National Right to Life Committee, explains.

"This is a federal agency, a federal program, [and] of course it's going to spend federal funds -- that's the only kind of funds it's got," he notes. "So all of these assurances that some prominent Democrats, including President Obama, have given that there won't be federal funding for abortions, that's not what's in the bill."

Johnson warns that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) wants to ram the bill through without representatives having a chance to vote on a single amendment.  However, in order to use that "closed rule" procedure, a majority of House members have to agree to the move.  The pro-life spokesman is urging members to vote "no" on a closed rule.

"We want to vote on an amendment that would take abortion out of this bill, which is the [Bart] Stupak amendment," Johnson clarifies, referring to the Michigan Democrat.  "We believe if we could get a vote in the full House on that amendment, it would pass."

Congressman Stupak has vowed that if he does not get a vote on his amendment barring federal funding of abortion, he and 40 pro-life Democrats will block a full House vote on the healthcare bill.

Why do Democratic leaders continue to insist abortion funding

isn't in their healthcare reform bills?
