From the Desk of:

Steve Elliott, Grassfire Nation

I have just confirmed that our historic hand-delivery of petitions opposing ObamaCare is currently underway!

Since our countdown clock expired on this delivery, our team has been working well into the night to ensure that your petition and those of 868,105 citizens are each hand- delivered to their two Senators.

    That means, in total we have printed more than 1.73

    million petitions opposing ObamaCare!

Let me be very clear... this incredible  grassroots initiative taking place during such a tenuoustime in our nation's history would not be happening if not for the efforts of our amazing Grassfire Nation team.

Your efforts this past week have been nothing short of miraculous. In fact, at one point, more than 2,400 citizens per hour were rushing to sign our petition!

This effort is unprecedented, and clearly demonstrates that the American people do not want any part of socialized health care.

We don't want the skyrocketing expenses, the health care rationing... and most importantly the loss of freedom and control to decide what kind of medical care is best for our families and ourselves.

That's why the timing of this petition delivery -- above all others.

Without question these 868,105 petitions will overwhelm Senate offices, and cause many lawmakers to think long and hard about their decision to support ObamaCare.

And again, it wouldn't have been possible without you!

+ + 1,000,000 Before Christmas!

Perhaps because of the Christmas Season I'm feeling especially hopeful, but I told my staff yesterday that all I wanted for Christmas was 1,000,000 petitions

opposing ObamaCare. Such a number was once just a dream -- but not any longer.

Imagine the impact of having roughly 1 in 300 citizens be represented by our petition!

Building on the incredible momentum we currently have, help lead the charge to rally the additional 130,000 citizens needed.

Senate Majority Leader Reid has made it his personal goal to vote on ObamaCare before Christmas, and I'd like to return to Capitol Hill with 1,000,000 petitions opposing his efforts BEFORE the vote!
