Has Anyone Seen This Video ? Another media Cover Up?

Being out of a job is the whole idea of this wake-up call. Let us hope it works.

lol. I bet they are doing more than whispering about it behind closed doors. But they better take them seriously. Or they find themselves out of a job.

They're whispering in the elevators lilwonders! lol Of course the democrats won't be public about it...but apparently they've noticed.

It seems that they are now responding as this is the first time the media has been involved in a press conference. It appears to have our elected officials buzzing about it behind closed doors. It is a great reminder that we voted them into office and we can also take them out of their jobs.

I too am amazed that it has come out in at least one of the mainstream media news shows. This, I hope, could be just the wake up call we have been hoping for to remind elected official we are still the ones who voted them into office, regardless of what kind of hold Obummer has over them.

[b]Yes--I just read that here, right after I posted, of course--[em]lol[/em--]& my jaw dropped! It's the rarest of rare events when today's "MSM" report fairly on what average Americans really think! I wonder what got into them? I'm still trying to make my jaw stay shut! Or maybe some in that place are secretly not in The Big O's pocket? Or maybe they're actually tired of covering up the Administration's shenanigans, & are yearning to return to honest journalism, the better to look at their faces in the mirror! Whatever the reason, it's got to be a Good Thing that they let this get out! Maggiepie "WHERE'S THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE?"[/b]

I saw it on CNN myself.

I went looking and found this on cnn's website: http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/11/17/pink.slip.protest/

I found this transcipt of the video: Yesterday, four members of the House of Representatives hailed the program in a Capitol news conference, saying it is getting the attention of members on both sides of the aisle. "It's an amazing feat, to get that many slips to Congress," Rep. Steven King, R-Iowa, one of the four members at the press conference, told WND. "If you look through them, you can index each one back to an individual. That's powerful. There is a person behind each one of the slips." King was joined at the press conference by Reps. Michelle Bachmann, R-Minn., Trent Franks, R-Ariz., and Louis Gohmert, R-Texas. In addition, Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., was interviewed about the campaign by Fox News Channel's Greta Van Susteren. "This is putting everyone on notice," he said. "And I think this is what the American people have been doing for months now, saying if you keep spending and borrowing, you're going to get fired." Also, for the first time, CNN and other news outlets covered the unprecedented campaign that has generated 5.5 million pink slips to members of the House and Senate. "Our goal from the beginning was to generate 5 million of these notices," said Farah. "But it now appears we might just be getting started." Bachmann cheered the program on, saying she agrees with the campaign and that it is having a major impact on her colleagues. She said she was surprised that so many pink slips were generated even though most Americans had never heard of the program. She said it's clear the message – delivered through a stack of "pink slips" now standing approximately five feet high in congressional offices – is getting through. The "pink slips" remind members of Congress they actually work for the taxpayers and list four governmental plans that are unacceptable: The program already has been the talk of Congress, albeit not always on the floor of the House or Senate. "They're talking about it, but they're only talking about it behind closed doors and in the elevators as they go up and down and in very whispered tones," Rep. Tom Price, R-Ga., has said. "Because, what you hear are people saying, 'How many of those did you get or how many people came to your office today? And what are you going to do and how are you going to vote on this?'" DeMint told Porter on a recent radio show that some of the bills now pending in Congress already would have been law had it not been for the "pink slips" appearing in inboxes daily. The notices, if stacked vertically, would be approximately three times as tall as the Washington Monument and surpass the Sears Tower in Chicago. Put end-to-end they would stretch from the Sears Tower to Washington, D.C. Rep. Todd Akin, R-Mo., earlier said private citizens will be the "final judge on the success or failure of the government." "The pink slip campaign serves as a good reminder of the unavoidable fact that every member of Congress answers to their constituents and that they ignore their voices at their own peril," Akin said. It was also pointed out that this was not a free campaign it cost $29.95 for each pick slip and for the people during this time of bad economy to spend this amount of money show just how seriously the people are about their voted officials.

Perhaps there is hope? Real hope?
