Enough is enough! It's time we up the ante and demand that our voices be heard and heeded. It's time that the logical and rational voices of reason get a Peace of the Action.

While the wars in Central Asia and the Middle East rage hotter and hotter, and while the suppression of our civil liberties here in the U.S. continue, Peace of the Action is demanding an immediate cessation to U.S. hostilities.

Peace of the Action will be establishing Camp OUT NOW on the lawn of the Washington Monument (with or without governmental permission) on Saturday, March 13th, (exactly 23 days from today), to be a base of operations from which we will organize and direct daily acts of Civil Resistance throughout the DC area and until our demands are officially recognized.

The first week of Camp OUT NOW, we will be holding non-violent Civil Resistance training, hosting Peace notables and being invigorated by musicians as we start building the community that we are going to need in order to help each other through the planned sustained actions.

All persons, who have had enough of "business as usual" in DC and are willing to put our anti-war, pro humanity principles into practice, are invited to come out to Camp OUT NOW and stay with us for as little or as long as you have available.

Direct acts of non-violent Civil Resistance will begin Monday, March 22nd after we have joined ANSWER Coalition in its "March on Washington" on Saturday, March 20th.

For more information please visit www.peaceoftheaction.org, call or e-mail us.

Public Option "Plan B" In the Works

You’ve probably heard the reports that some Democrats in the Senate or at least senators who caucus with the Democrats are threatening to filibuster the health care bill if it contains a public option. Sen. Joseph Lieberman [I, CT], for example, says he’ll join Republicans on a filibuster of a bill that includes a public option and isn’t willing to wiggle on his position. Other Democrats that are not supportive of the public option and have not ruled out filibustering include Sen. Ben Nelson [D, NE], Sen. Evan Bayh [D, IN], Sen. Blanche Lincoln [D, AR] and Sen. Mary Landrieu [D, LA].

The democrats in the House have already sold the American people out. They sided with the insurance companies and the corporate health care industry against the people. It really is quite despicable that these so called elected officials would continue to deny the people a just and humane health care system.

This is why Americans must stand up and make their voices heard NOW! Your chance for a fair society is being stolen from you. Use the link below to locate your Senator's telephone number in Washington. Call their office and tell them your name and address, tell them you vote, and tell them you are against the corporate health care plan that was passed in the House of Representatives. Tell them you want a plan that contains a government run public option that competes with the corporate health care monopoly and provides real health care for all Americans including the poor and unemployed.

The Bushites and the fascists haven't gone away just because Obama is in office, they are right there in the American peoples faces robbing them of trillions of dollars with the planed banking debacle, and the ten trillion dollar "never ending war" based on lies, and numerous tax 'giveaways' for corporations and the super rich.

Our government, our president and congress no longer serve the people, they have become corporate military industrial bank lackeys. In the past year Obama has given 25 trillion- $25,000,000,000,000. to the international Federal reserve banking thieves. Our so-called leaders are helping their true masters to loot America into collapse, economically bleeding and enslaving the people for generations to come. Bush removed the rules and regulations that once protected the American people, now it's a feeding frenzy for the rich and powerful, and now it's the insurance companies turn to take their pound of flesh from the American people.

The republicans bragged that they would defeat this health care bill and "break Obama" once and for all, but it's really the American people they are breaking.

If we the people do not stand up and make our voices heard this outrage will soon be passed into law. Enrollment for every working American will be mandatory and the IRS will oversee payments to the insurance companies. It means a seventy billion dollar annual increase in profits for wealthy insurance company stockholders, and grinding corporate slavery for the American people. When an individual is forced against their will to give their money to a privately owned entity, profiting wealthy stockholders and non-governmental concerns, this is slavery. The rich and powerful are using our corrupt government to force us into corporate slavery. Resist it my friends or America won’t be worth living in.

The American medical system is a government approved corporate HMO rip-off system that feeds on the people. The medical insurance companies, HMO’s profit more by denying people medical care then by providing it. In highly industrialized America, richest country on earth, some fifty thousand people die each year from treatable illnesses simply because they cannot afford to see a doctor. More than forty six million Americans are too poor to afford medical insurance, many of them working.

Isn't it time for the American people to get up off their knees and make the politicians and the bloodthirsty corporations give something back?

Contact your Senator and tell them to reject the corporate health care plan that passed in the House. Tell them you want a "government run public option" that lets all Americans go to a doctor and get proper medical care including the working poor and the unemployed, without forced corporate servitude.

As Chris Bowers points out in openleft.com- "In both branches of Congress, Democrats already have the votes and procedural options in place to pass a public option on health insurence reform. This means it is possible to pass a public option now. It also means that if a public option does not pass as part of health care reform, it will be a because of a political calculation made by the Democratic leadership, not because there was no way to pass one."

Now is your chance Americans. The democrats are weighing their political careers and reputations against the financial gains of going along with the insurance companies and the corporate health care industry against the American people. It really is quite despicable to continue to deny the people health care and the politicians know it. None of them wants to be seen as one of the greedy bums that helped screw the people out of health care yet again. But if they don't think the people are watching they will vote against the public option and corporate special interests will have scored yet another cruel victory against the people.

This is why Americans must stand up now and make their voices heard. Use the link below to locate your congressman's telephone number in Washington. Call their offices and tell them your name and address so they will know you are a real person, and say that you are a voter and you want them to vote "YES" on the "public option".

The Bushites and the fascists haven't gone away just because Obama is in office, they are right there in the American peoples faces robbing them of trillions of dollars with the planed banking debacles, the ten trillion dollar war based on lies, and the numerous tax 'give aways' to corporations and the super rich. The republicans are already bragging that when they defeat this bill they will "break Obama" once and for all. But who are they really going to break, Obama or the American people?

More than forty six million Americans have no medical insurance, many of them working.

Make the politicians and the bloodthirsty corporations give something back. Contact your congressman and tell them you want them to vote "YES" on the "public option". If enough of the American people will let the politicians know that 'we the people' are watching them on this, just like we watch them on Social Security, the people will win this and finally all Americans instead of just the privileged will be able to go to a doctor and get proper medical care.
