I am a loyal conservative and sickened by what I am seeing coming from this administration.  I encourage my friends to read up on Obama's anti-American past and try to educate my people.  I have signed up for the Obama website - although I am not supporting him in ANY way - so I can see what the democrats are sending out to their constituency.  I recently received an email from MoveOn.org.  It was a letter encouraging me to start a movement in my home town of Southlake TX - a largely conservative township of affluent corporate executives.  Obviously I will not be spearheading any MOVEMENT other than to get him voted out of office!  But what concerns me is that I HAVE NOT SIGNED ON TO ANY OCCUPY WEBSITES or EMAIL lists.  Because the only list on that side of the isle that I have signed onto was the Obama supporter website, this tells me that the Occupy movement is coming DIRECTLY FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.  They have obviously given their email list to this group to promote protests.

We need to take action and expose Obama for encouraging this bad behavior.  These protesters are not doing anything positive for our country, on the contrary, they are costing us a forture in clean up.  Obama needs to take responsibility for what he is promoting and causing.  

Here is the email that I received:

Dear MoveOn member,

What happens next for the 99% movement is up to each of us. We can let it fade away, or we come together to bring it back bigger and stronger than ever this spring.

Right now, groups all over the country—inspired by the everyday heroes of Occupy Wall Street—are planning for a 99% Spring in America. It's an opportunity to build on last year's momentum with a massive campaign of bold nonviolent direct actions to confront the 1% nationwide.

That's why during the week of April 9-15, in small towns and big cities all across America, we're working with our allies to bring 100,000 people together for an unprecedented national movement-wide training on how—following in the footsteps of Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—we can take nonviolent direct action this spring to challenge the 1%.

So far the response has been pretty amazing. More than 500 training events are already set up, and we've seen a huge surge of MoveOn members stepping up to host events—much more than anyone expected. But no one in Southlake has stepped up to coordinate a training. Can you sign up to host a local 99% Spring action training?

Yes! I'm interested in hosting a training during the week of April 9-15.

From the labor movement to the struggle for civil rights, we have an incredible shared history in America of everyday people using the power of nonviolent direct action to create change when our country needed it the most.

Last year the courage and moral clarity that we saw from the protests at the Capitol in Wisconsin to Occupy Wall Street followed in that tradition—and forced America to finally talk about economic inequality and just how badly our system is broken.

But we need a whole lot more of that kind of courageous action if we're going to create meaningful change. That's the vision for the 99% Spring, and it all starts with this massive, ambitious, plan to train 100,000 people in the theory and practice of nonviolent direct action.

Can you help by hosting a 99% Spring action training in Southlake?

Yes, I can host!

Anyone can host a training—you can have just a handful of people in your living room or you can find a local community center, place of worship, campus, or public space for a larger event. We'll follow up with all the details and provide the support and guidance you'll need to coordinate an event. We'll also help you connect and collaborate with other local 99% Spring volunteers and groups.

MoveOn members who want to see the 99% movement grow have already committed to coordinating events. But we don't have enough space yet to provide trainings to all 100,000 people. As 5 million progressives, we have a unique ability to help our movement hit that goal and grow even stronger.

Thanks for all you do.

Our movement is about to do something unprecedented: train 100,000 people over the course of just one week in nonviolent direct action. More than 500 trainings are already planned, but so far no one has volunteered to host a 99% Spring action training in Southlake. Can you host a training during the week of April 9-15?

  • "Move On" is directing the "Occupy Movement" to recruit young people who have been dumbed down by our Public Education system (manned by 60's Marxist radicals) because they are so susceptible to this kind of propaganda.  They are susceptible because they can't compete in College & many other areas. Many, maybe most, don't understand the obstacles they face. They don't realize Barney Frank & Chris Dodd were merely the trigger for the Real Estate Bust, the lack of Fiscal Responsibility/Federal Banking System & Dumbing Down America, not Wall Street. WAKE UP AMERICA

  • @BradLevyI wouldn't doubt you'd find no obvious direct connection between moveon, and other liberals groups and the White House. I can attest to sharing of emails and information, though. Back when Axelrod was still at the WH, I received a general email about some issue from him. I had never signed up on the WH site. However, just before that, I had signed up on moveon.org to keep an eye on what they were doing.  No doubt in my military mind that there is sharing of information and email addresses.

  • Now we know the agenda do we have any volunteers to combat the movement in the area. Some water bombs with bull horns and sirens ought to give it a real sad day. Something like a skunk smell for the water bombs would be nice! Some hornet nest to through in the crowd sure would send em packing!

  • @Ray Re: "This is a controlled, contrived plan by the elite to declare martial law in America." Do you foresee any connection between this and Obama's latest Executive Order "NATIONAL DEFENSE RESOURCES PREPAREDNESS""  http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2012/03/16/executive-ord...  ?    Apparently the definition of National Defense has been expanded beyond previous orders in Section 801, paragraph j. Also, what about HR 347, "Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011"  which was just signed into law    http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/112/hr347/text           Put all of this together and it can be seen as pretty ominous.

  • I just spent 15 minutes looking at as many sites related to this as I could find.... Can you provide me with one link that shows a direct relationship between President Obama & these groups?? All of these groups are Liberal, and they all have a common theme.....Do they get support from Democratic Elected officials?? Yes, because the Democratic party hasn't come out & chastised them for the way they go about demonstrating..... But.. I don't see any direct connection to President Obama..... 

    It was bound to happen that the Occupy Movement (which was relatively dormant during the cold winter months) would resurface again.... 

    As a POI.. I live in NYC & was in the area of Union Square last night, where they had a big sign.. but I didn't see any organized demonstration take place.... At their core, they are about individual messages, not a collective voice.. and that is their mistake.......

    Even if they had legitimate grievances, they don't articulate them properly & their utter lack of respect for the law marginalizes the whole movement.....  

    There are those of us who remember the 60's.... (not just from reading about that turbulent time in a text book, or magazine article..LOL) There were injustices taking place, but they have all been corrected... 

    The lack of employment opportunity & access to higher education are not due to prejudice ,but to a sense of entitlement which some people feel.... Why work, when you can  get government handouts instead?? 

  • We must educate as many people as we can about this group and obama involvement.

  • Jerkoff President!
