QOTD: "I want you to circle the date of Sunday, October 13, 2013.

Find Your Representative, call them, and tell them to HOLD THEIR GROUND

And then I want you to help “circle the wagons” on that day to help protect and defend our brave veterans who risked their lives for our freedom – and now are being barred from visiting the memorials erected to honor their deeds.

In a mean-spirited fit of selfish anger, Barack Obama has shut down our nation’s war memorials. And he has declared open war on our honored veterans!

The World War II memorial … the Vietnam Veterans Memorial … the Korean War Veterans Memorial – Obama has shut them all down to force his will on the House of Representatives and frankly, to get revenge on the American people who oppose Obamacare and his other naked power grabs.

Let’s put it plainly: Barack Obama is behaving like a vicious tyrant. And if he succeeds in this assault on the democratic system, the Republic we love is at mortal risk. It’s just that simple.

That’s why I am asking you now to take two decisive moves to show Barack Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi – and all of their oppressive ilk in Washington – that “We the People” are still in charge." --Million Vet March

Unfortunately neither of the paragraphs JWF quoted appear in the article referenced by the "this" URL. I would like to think the issue is poor block quote usage, but I don't know. Anyway, what JWF says is at the referenced URL is not there. At least when I looked.

I should specify which ^ JWF post I mean: Guess How Much We Paid For Obama’s Trainwreck Healthcare Website?

Ah, the Digital Trends website updated their article. Sorry, I missed that when I jumped straight to the quoted text looking for context.

http://www.digitaltrends.com/opinion/obamacare-healthcare-gov-website-cost/
> Correction: We miscalculated the expenditures related to the healthcare exchanges established under the Affordable Care Act, and incorrectly attributed the total cost of these expenditures. We have recalculated the cost to build Healthcare.gov and integral backend systems, and updated the article below to reflect the new information.

I left a note for JWF at their website about the Digital Trends article update. I'm not sniping at them, just looking for accuracy. I'm sure they'll do the right thing.
