WASHINGTON, April 13, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- On Thursday, April 14, 2011, 7:45 -- 10:00 AM a group of Tea Party and Pro-life Activists will gather at the Cannon House Building (at 1st and C Southeast, near Metro Stop) to hand out "Report Cards" regarding Boehner and the GOP controlled House. (Expect Much Comedy.)
The Demonstration will be led by Ohio Resident David Lewis and DC resident Missy Smith. Mrs. Smith recently made headlines when she ran against Eleanor Holmes Norton in DC, showing aborted babies in 255 TV ads. Mr. Lewis was recently arrested at Speaker Boehner's office in a demonstration regarding the funding of Planned Parenthood, and recently held press conferences and demonstrations in Ohio and Indiana, calling for Tea Party activists to find a GOP candidate to run in a primary against John Boehner.
Participants will have bullhorns and signs to challenge and chide GOP House staffers that have worked to derail most of the Tea Party and Pro-life agenda.
Signs highlighting some of the "grades" will read:
- Report Card: First 100 Days -
Helps Obama: B+
Helps Tea Party: D
- First 100 Days -
Plays Well with Planned Parenthood: A+
Protects Babies: D-
- College Level Work -
Compromise 101: A+
Fights For Principle 201: F
Boehner Tan: A+
Boehner Courage: F
David Lewis states: "With a clear majority, the GOP House -- under Boehner's leadership -- failed to defund Obamacare, failed to defund Planned Parenthood, and failed to cut 100 Billion dollars in spending as they promised. This is a failure by any standard of measurement."
Missy Smith States: "I truly hoped Boehner and the GOP would be our knights in shining armor. Instead, they ended up shining the shoes of Democrat leaders, and abandoning pro-lifers and tea party advocates to the dragons."
