This may seem like a joke, but believe it or not, it isn’t:

Let’s roll… to a stop? Really? That’s the best they can do?

Brief Description – Sarah Palin called the Obama Administration’s actions as the “Road to Ruin”! Like most of the USA now, we at Stand Up America think it is a great way to express yourself and learn what is really happening to our country, so what can we do? Well, it seems the normal methods do not work because of entrenched political machinery, moneyed interests, power seeking for power’s sake, and a media that is just plan in the tank.

In the past, petitions were signed, marches on Washington and elsewhere were held, Tea Parties were created, letters were written, calls were made, new representatives were elected, yet, the road to ruin is still there, and the Obama Administration has the pedal to the floor, the speedometer is pegged, and there are no brakes. All our efforts have for the most part FAILED!

So how do we make our voices known? How do we finally succeed? How do we send a clear message that cannot be twisted by the media, misinterpreted by politicians, or co-opted by Obama apologists? Well, we have come up with one interesting new way. Are you game? It won’t cost you any money short of a gallon of gas. It won’t take much of your time, only about an hour. It won’t mean travel to distant cities. It won’t mean crowds to wade through, and it won’t interfere with your life too much.

What it will be is FUN, and a great way to vent your frustration, without being labeled, or maligned!

Oh em gee, I SO wanna go! I want to have FUN! I hate being maligned! This is Activist Utopia! Whatever could they be planning?

• Sunday, March 13th, 2011 – 4 PM Eastern, 3 PM Central, 2 PM Mountain, and 1 PM Pacific time;

• We want everyone to get into their cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs, Semis, box trucks, and any other vehicle, and drive to your nearest highway or main route;

• Don’t go far, just enough to get in a safe position to pull over to the shoulder, and park, engine running, headlights and flashers on;

• Why? To take a cell call, or make one or several. After all, law enforcement recommends that you pull over to the side to take your call or text.

• Hook up a boat trailer, a snow mobile hauler, or anything to make the line look miles and miles long, bring your tractor-trailer;

• Set up a long motorcycle run to a STOP;

• Get your car club involved to show off those great hot rods and collectibles;

• Imagine others driving by wondering “what the heck”? Wave to everyone;

• Get ten friends to do the same; or go to an over pass and hang temporary signs saying – “Time to stop!” Just imagine the imagery! But be SAFE!

• Once pulled over to the side, place calls or texts to your friends, take pictures, send tweets, flood Facebook with messages and photos, along with several million others on other highways across the land.

• Stay one hour if you can, get your friends to do the same, line up all your vehicles in a safe manner as far off the side as you can, and hit your horns.

• One hour gives the media a chance to react, a chance to get footage. Imagine the traffic reports!

• Hang a sign inside your back window, or use temporary soap to write a message safely on the window;

• Be a part of millions of people saying: “Stop the madness, we are pulling over and just stopping!”

Imagine the image, when every news outlet in the USA must take notice.

Helicopters recording the event, YouTube filling with videos from every spot in America, with one message: “Just Stop”! Imagine seeing 300 cars pulled over for miles in California, in Texas, in New Jersey…etc.

Imagine the evening news and cable stations saying, “What the heck is going on?”

Do the math. If a car is 17 feet long, and 10 feet is maintained between each vehicle, it takes only 195 cars to stretch one mile. Imagine 500 tractor trailers pulling over for one hour! That’s over seven miles!

“Just pull over.”

Genius! Brilliant! If you’re a dim bulb.

Wow.

A “what the heck, across the land” photo op. Gee, what could be more effective than a bunch of stopped cars?

Paul E. Vallely founded this group. “Who?” you ask. This guy:

Paul E. Vallely is a retired US Army Major General and senior military analyst for Fox News. [...]

Vallely toured the Camp Delta detention camp at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba in 2006… Vallely and Cucullu later participated in an interview with FrontPage Magazine in which he blasted allegations of detainee abuse as “myths of the left-wing press”. He also voiced support for the force feeding of detainees attempting to undertake hunger strikes, claiming the detainees were “…simply restrained for 20 minutes so they can be fed Ensure. They get their choice of four flavors of Ensure. It’s put in a very unobtrusive feeding tube smaller than a normal straw and it’s put in there for 20 minutes, so they get breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They get to go back to their detention facility.”^[5]

[...]

In 2005, Vallely founded a conservative political organization called Stand Up America US, that promotes the following issues:^[7] “First amendment rights, Second amendment rights, strong national defense and secure borders, national sovereignty, support of the armed forces, individual liberties and personal responsibility, fiscally responsible, limited government”. The organization endorses the views of Glenn Beck,^[8] and publishes fiction and non-fiction books to promote it’s message.

Mostly fiction.

This explains everything. Now I understand the dim bulbitude of SUA.

The preceding post was a “what the heck” moment.
