Below is a video from Alex Jones regarding the feds desire to ban his film THE OBAMA DECEPTION saying it was the reason the man shot at the White House recently.  I encourage everyone to watch the film.  It never advocates for violence of any kind.  This is a way to move the dialogue of those critical of the “globalist elite / central banksters” as being crazy and motivated to commit acts of violence. No matter what you think of Alex Jones, this should scare everyone.  As we have written previously, this is a tool to paint advocates of liberty and fidelity to the Constitution as “extremists”.  The change from using the term “terrorist” to the now commonly used term “extremist” is deliberate.  It is an important step in bringing the full power of the Patriot Act to bear on those critical of the Fed and advocates of freedom, sound money, big government,  etc… By  implying that people watching films like THE OBAMA DECEPTION are motivated to violence, they are essentially now calling these people “terrorists”.  After all, according to their definition,  isn’t that what terrorists are?  Terrorists are people / groups motivated by ideology to commit acts of violence….

Your help is needed NOW.   The Office of the Commissioner of Insurance (OCI) for Wisconsin has forwarded an emergency order to Gov. Walker that would begin Wisconsin’s compliance with ObamaCare. I have no idea what the motivation is behind it, but WE MUST STOP IT. Please call Gov. Walker TODAY at 608-266-1212 and let him know Wisconsin wants absolutely nothing to do with ObamaCare.   If you don’t believe me, take a look at the attached Emergency Rule for yourself and count how many times it refers to the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act” (ObamaCare) and “45 CFR 147.136”. Tell Gov. Walker to send back the $49 million in Early Innovator Grant Funds.

Due to some recent scheduling conflicts the Rock River Patriots meeting on Friday November 11th has been cancelled.  We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. Our next meeting will be on Friday December 9th.  We have a very special meeting planned.  You will not want to miss this meeting.  More information will follow soon.

The Rock River Patriots will be having a meeting this Friday November 11 at 6pm.  The meeting will be held in Fort Atkinson at the Dwight Foster Library’s Community Room.  The Dwight Foster Library is located at 209 Merchants Avenue. At this meeting we will discuss the current events, initiatives, and the recent legislative session.  We will review the legislative process in detail.  This is the only meeting for November, so we hope to see all of you there!

Attached is the press release from Senator Frank Lasee asking the Walker Administration to send back the $49 million in Obamacare grant money that was to be used to set up insurance exchanges. Senator Frank Lasee Press Release – Release Obamacare Funds We have said repeatedly that government “insurance exchanges” are a bad idea.  It IS government run healthcare, just at a different level.  They do nothing to fix the healthcare problems we face.  Instead, they just add another layer of bureaucracy. The best thing government can do is to repeal all the coverage mandates so consumers can tailor an insurance product that fits their individual situation.  Only consumer driven, market based approaches can solve the insurance problem. The states need to WAKE UP to the fact that anytime the FEDS dangle money out there for some project, that it is somehow “free” money.  That is money taken from someone who actually earned it.  As long as states accept this money, they are bound to the conditions imposed by the FEDS giving up their autonomy and sovereignty in the process. Governor Walker…SEND THE MONEY BACK!!!

Here is a great article from The New American regarding Ron Paul. Written by Jack Kerwick, Ph.D. Wednesday, 02 November 2011 10:03 7 Although his commitment to “limited government” is unsurpassed, establishment Republicans in both politics and the so-called “conservative media” labor incessantly to discredit Texan Congressman and GOP presidential contender, Ron Paul. On its face, who couldn’t judge this phenomenon, the phenomenon of the most vocal champions of liberty ridiculing and trivializing the most vocal champion of liberty, as anything other than bizarre?  Any remotely curious observer couldn’t resist the impulse to inquire into the roots of this enigma. We needn’t dig too deeply to discover that the establishment Republican’s apparently irrational conduct toward Paul stems from his angst regarding Paul’s foreign policy vision. Paul, you see, rejects in no uncertain terms the notion that Big Government is not only permissible, but desirable, as long as it is non-American citizens abroad upon whom our government’s designs would be brought to bear. Loudly and unapologetically, he rejects the idea that “social engineering” is a good thing as long as it is other societies that our government seeks to “engineer.” Paul makes no secret of his utter contempt, a contempt born…

We are happy that the Castle Doctrine has passed the State Assembly.  Here is the link to the bill: Castle Doctrine AB69 As we have said from the start, we wanted to see strong “Stand Your Ground” language in this bill similar to what is in place in Florida.  Even though we haven’t achieved that language in this bill,  it is a leap forward in the right direction.  The bill now moves to the State Senate Thursday. Also on the calendar tomorrow is AB303 – Smart Growth Opt Out.  This bill is an important step in fighting back against Agenda 21 programs.  Contact your legislator and tell them to support AB303.

Here is an article from WI Senator Frank Lasee about why he won’t advance AB210 out of his committee.  It is taken from The Daily Caller.  This is what we need from out elected officials…PRINCIPLES!!! We have also heard that the Governor’s Office is not happy about this decision and will be attacking Senator Lasee as an Obamacare supporter.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  Call the Governor’s office and tell them you applaud Senator Lasee’s decision. Why I refuse to advance AB 210 By Sen. Frank Lasee Over the past few weeks, Wisconsin’s state legislators have been strongly pressured to pass AB 210. The bill quickly cleared the State Assembly on October 18, after which it was assigned to the Senate Committee on Insurance and Housing, which I chair. After a public hearing and full evaluation of the bill, I have decided to let AB 210 die in my committee. A great deal of noise will almost certainly be made about this decision. I want to provide Wisconsinites and everyone else watching this issue with the facts so that they can understand my reasons for killing this dangerous bill. What would AB 210 achieve? AB 210 would bring…

Assembly Modifies, Passes Obamacare Compliance There are many TEA Party / Patriot Groups opposed to this bill. It is shameful that only a handful of Assembly Republican saw this bill for what it was more big gov’t.  Our hats go off to Reps Nass, Wynn, Craig, August, and Knudson for seeing this bill for what it truly is.  To the others, we simply ask “Why?” This bill must be killed in the WI Senate!
