Whole Foods BUYcott
National "Whole Foods BUYcott"-- Tuesday September 1
BUYCOTT to support Whole Foods Market and Free Speech!
After the recent attacks on Whole Food Markets by leftist thugs and hippies the St. Louis Tea Party Coalition has coordinated a "buycott" at Whole Foods on Tuesday September 1st in the evening.
Tea Party Patriot Gina Loudon is asking everyone to hang on to their grocery money until Tuesday, and we will provide sales circulars for people to shop with. Then we will have dinner together for those who want to stay after they shop. Anyone who cannot attend should SAVE THEIR RECEIPTS and mail them to Gina at:
Gina Loudon can be contacted by email at Gina@stlouisteaparty.com.
The Nationwide Tea party Coalition is also supporting this effort.

House vote on health care this week
Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi have had enough with the health
care debate -- they are pressing for a floor vote in the
House THIS WEEK and Pelosi is guaranteeing passage:
"When I take this bill to the floor, it will win," Pelosi said.
Obama and Pelosi are so desperate to rush the bill through
that they are threatening to bypass the Energy and Commerce
Committee where a group of Democrats are still raising
objections.
In short, Obama and Pelosi are determined to pass socialized
ObamaCare BEFORE their August recess because opposition is
mounting and they are losing momentum!
+ + House Floor Vote this week!
This new fast-track strategy unfolded shortly after Obama's
bulldog Rahm Emanuel met with Democratic leaders and undoubtedly
issued the marching orders for the House to pass the bill
this week.
But we still have two chances to defeat ObamaCare in the
House -- first in the Energy and Commerce Committee and
then when they bring this monstrosity of a bill to the
floor for a vote.
+ + Action #1 -- Sign the Petition!
We just crossed 270,000 signers and we want to deliver 3
00,000 petitions this WEDNESDAY to the House leadership.
Our records show that you have not yet signed. Please go
here to sign and be included in this petition delivery to the
House this week:
http://www.grassfire.net/r.asp?u=20524&RID=16815421
+ + Action #2 -- Fax Key House Members And Say
"No" To ObamaCare
The Energy and Commerce Committee is taking up the bill TODAY.
We have focused our FaxFire on this Committee and other key
Democrats.
Even if you have done so already, please
go here right now to send your faxes opposing
socialized health care to key members of this House
committee along with your two Senators and
Representative:
http://www.grassfire.net/r.asp?U=20520&CID=122&RID=16815421
(As always, if you want to send your own faxes, we have provided
the fax numbers and sample text for you. Just click here to
access that information:
http://www.grassfire.net/r.asp?U=20521&CID=122&RID=16815421
Again, Obama and Pelosi are desperate to get their socialized
health care plan passed -- so much so that they are even
threatening to bypass the objections of fellow Democrats!
Please... take action today by signing the petition and sending
faxes. And please alert your friends. Thanks for taking action.

Please contact Governor Brewer TODAY
three important NRA-backed bills (Senate Bill 1113, Senate Bill 1168, and Senate Bill 1243) are en route to the desk of Governor Jan Brewer (R) for her consideration. Please call Governor Brewer and respectfully ask her to sign these pro-gun bills.
SB1113 would allow concealed carry permit holders to take concealed handguns into restaurants that serve alcohol, provided they are not consuming.
SB1168 would permit a law-abiding individual to store their firearms in their locked motor vehicle while parked on a publicly accessible parking lot controlled by their employer or a business they frequent. This bill will protect your right to keep a firearm in your car if you choose to hunt or target shoot before or after work. SB1168 would also allow an individual to keep a firearm in their vehicle for self-defense during their commute to and from work.
SB1243 would clarify the statutory definition of defensive display of a firearm. This clarification of defensive display of a firearm is a valuable addition to your right to self-defense.
Anti-gun business groups and gun control activists are urging the Governor to veto these bills. Please contact Governor Brewer TODAY and thank her for all of her past support and respectfully encourage her to sign SB1113, SB1168, and SB1243 into law. The Governor can be reached by phone at (602) 542-4331, toll-free at 1-(800) 253-0883, or click here to send email.

CAP AND TRADE VOTE SOON!!!!
from Michelle Malkin
We celebrated our freedoms this Independence Day. Now, it’s time to fight for them. Hope you are feeling energized. There is much work to be done.
On the front-burner: Defeating the cap-and-tax bill.
The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee begins hearings on Tuesday.
Spruiell and Williamson have an excellent rundown of Waxman-Markey’s garden of piggish delights. The unions get a cap-and-pay-off. Heritage must-read research and analysis here.
Which senators to target? Here:
Democrats and the two independents who caucus with them control 60 Senate seats. But more than a dozen have expressed concern over costs. They include Democrats from industry-heavy Ohio and Michigan, coal-dependent Indiana and oil-rich Louisiana.
Only a few Republicans appear open to emissions limits, notably two moderates from Maine — Sens. Susan Collins and Olympia J. Snowe — and Sen. John McCain of Arizona, who championed emissions limits in his presidential campaign (though he has expressed reservations about the House bill).
The Senate bill will emerge from several committees — including the finance, foreign relations, commerce and agriculture committees — with dramatically different memberships and priorities.
The energy committee already has approved its chunk with wide bipartisan support. It includes a requirement to produce more electricity from renewable sources, but also expands drilling — a possible deal-breaker for environmentalists.
Boxer’s committee will center its work on cap and trade. The House bill would cut U.S. emissions by 17% below 2005 levels by 2020 and 83% by 2050. Environmentalists expect Boxer, who said she was “looking closely” at those limits, to strengthen them.
Yes, the fate of cap-and-tax is in the hands of Republicans like John McCain. As I warned last May, Sen. McCain has been a member of the global warming hysteria cult for years. A reminder:
Climatologist Patrick Michaels had McCain pegged four years ago, when The Maaaveerrick convened ridiculously, eco-Chicken Little-stacked hearings:
Recent U.S. Senate hearings into alleged global warming, chaired by Arizona Republican John McCain, were among the “most biased” that a noted climatologist has ever seen - “much less balanced than anything I saw in the Clinton administration,” he said.
Patrick J. Michaels is the author of a new book “Meltdown: The Predictable Distortion of Global Warming by Scientists, Politicians, and the Media.” He is an environmental sciences professor at the University of Virginia who believes that claims of human-caused “global warming” are scientifically unfounded.
Michaels spoke with CNSNews.com Thursday following a panel discussion sponsored by the libertarian Cato Institute in Washington, D.C., where Michaels also serves as a senior fellow in environmental studies.
“John McCain, a Republican, has probably held the most biased hearing of all,” Michaels said. McCain is a big proponent of limiting greenhouse gas emissions, which he believes are causing “global warming.” The Arizona senator also “is trying to define himself as an environmental Republican, which he is going to use to differentiate himself from his rivals for the (presidential) nomination in 2008,” according to Michaels.
You can bet McCain won’t be visiting with Michaels on his climate change tour anytime soon. The truth would get in the way of his crusade:
Citing a visit he had to the Arctic with several U.S. senators last summer, McCain made it clear that he believed human-caused “global warming” was a certainty.
“It was remarkable going up on a small ship next to this glacier and seeing where it had been just 10 short years ago and how quickly it’s receded,” McCain told the New York Times…
…McCain also warned about what he saw as the rapid pace of Arctic warming, evidenced by the arrival of wildlife that had never previously been seen in the region. “The Inuit language for 10,000 years never had a word for robin and now there are robins all over their villages,” he told the Times.
Michaels refuted McCain’s assertions about the North Pole, noting that the Arctic has actually been warmer in the past than it is now.
“It was warmer 4 to 7,000 years ago [in the Arctic.] Every climatologist knows that. I saw no mention of that in the Arctic report that was paraded in front of McCain,” Michaels said. He added that the past warming of the Arctic couldn’t possibly be blamed on greenhouse gas emissions since it occurred long before the industrial era.

Three Important Pro-Gun Bills Head to the Governor’s Desk!

Senate Bill 1113, introduced by State Senator Jack Harper (R-4), would allow concealed carry permit holders to take concealed handguns into restaurants that serve alcohol, provided they are not consuming.

NO to the CARBON TAX
TOMORROW (Friday), the House will vote on the Pelosi/ Obama-
pushed massive carbon tax -- what the Wall Street Journal
today is calling the "biggest tax in American history."
That means we have just a few hours left to voice our opposition.
The Journal says the bill "defies the laws of economics" and
then lambasts the Congressional Budget Office for totally
ignoring the negative effects on the economy this bill will cause.
For example, Heritage Foundations estimates that the cap-and-trade
Carbon Tax will:
"Reduce aggregate Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by
$9.6 trillion"
"Destroy up to 2.5 million jobs in some years"
"Raise electric rates 90%, gasoline prices by 74%, and
natural gas prices by 55% after adjusting for inflation"
"Raise a typical family's average annual energy bill
by $1,500."
Call your Representative and key House leaders and tell them you
oppose H.R. 2454!

Arizona Senator Attempting to Water Down Important Pro-Gun Bill!
House Bill 2474, sponsored by State Representatives John Kavanagh (R-8) and Frank Antenori (R-30), would permit law-abiding citizens to keep a firearm locked in their privately owned vehicle when parked on their employer’s publicly accessible parking lot or a business they frequent.
State Senator Carolyn Allen (R-8) is attempting to attach an amendment to HB2474 that would water down the language of the bill, essentially rendering the legislation useless to Arizona’s law-abiding gun owners.
Please contact Senator Allen TODAY and respectfully voice your opposition to her attempt to gut HB2474. Senator Allen can be reached by phone at (602) 926-4480, by fax at (602) 417-3155, or email callen@azleg.gov.
