Arkansas-- “Impeach Obama” Protests Line Drivers Morning Commutes
Posted on: 8:18 am, August 6, 2013, by Josiah Gorham, updated on: 10:12am, August 6, 2013
Protesters were spotted lining up on overpasses across the River Valley and Northwest Arkansas as groups gathered as part of a national protest calling to impeach President Obama.
The protests are part of a national organized movement, “Overpasses for Obama’s Impeachment.” The group of protesters were seen carrying anti-Obama signs and American flags at interstate overpasses. The protests are scheduled to be held at 7:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. with the goal of catching drivers going to and from work.
In Springdale three of these protesters were spotted at the Elm Springs overpass at I-540 waving a large American Flag.
In the River Valley a dozen protesters could be seen Tuesday morning at the I-40 Lee Creek overpass waving flags and carrying signs.
However, Arkansas State Police told the protesters they had to move away from the Lee Creek overpass around 8 a.m. Tuesday because it is a two-lane interstate. ASP told protesters they could not congregate unless it was at a four-lane interstate.
Around 8:15 a.m. Lee Creek protesters moved their protests to the Van Buren Welcome Center.

Hundreds of Anti-Obama Protests Planned for Today
by Keith Koffler on August 6, 2013, 7:02 am
Hundreds of anti-Obama protests are being staged today nationwide, as the grassroots group Overpasses for Impeachment takes to the bridges above highways in cities and towns around the country to call for President Obama’s removal from office. Thousands are expected to participate.
http://www.whitehousedossier.com/wp-...-2-300x225.jpgThe group, which began in June and has spread to every state in the union, will be wielding banners and U.S. flags and making plenty of noise on overpasses during rush hour – morning and afternoon.
Twenty two protests are planned throughout Florida alone. Other leading states include Georgia, which will stage 19, California, with 14, a dozen each in South Carolina and Connecticut, and eight in Texas.
The group’s website lists numerous grounds it says merit Obama’s impeachment. But, with little chance of Congress acting to try to remove the president based on currently known facts, today’s “Patriot Wave” day of protests seem more an outlet to show displeasure with Obama than an actual drive to impeach him.
The organization, which has been built from a Facebook campaign that started with a national page and now includes pages for each state, has already staged dozens of appearances on overpasses around the country since June and plans to aggressively continue the practice after today’s mass event.

Lane County, Oregon--Overpasses Against Obama: “I Think Our President’s a Crook!”
Bright and early Tuesday morning, three hearty local citizens were protesting on the I-5 footbridge near Gateway Mall as part of the national “Wave” of overpass protests calling for the impeachment of President Obama.

“I think our president’s a crook! I think he should be tried for treason. I think we, as patriots, need to step up and take our country back,” said Julie Collins, protest organizer for the Eugene-Springfield area, also adding, “We don’t think he has the best interest of our country in his heart. We want to make sure We the People are the ones running this country instead of the government.”
Lane Today contacted local leaders in the Democratic Party. Oregon State Representative Val Hoyle (D – Eugene/Junction City) said, “I took an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States and the State of Oregon, and with it, the 1st amendment of the Constitution protecting speech. [I'm] not sure how standing on an overpass with signs is going to get the President overthrown, but I say more power to them for exercising their constitutionally protected right to free speech.”
Collins said this protest is associated with Overpasses.org, and is a nationwide grassroots organization that started in June. She said the “Wave” of protests is occurring in every state today. Lane Today attempted to contact someone affiliated with the national organization but no information was provided on the “Contacts” section of their website. The site contained no information regarding who is affiliated with it, and a domain registration search says the site is registered to Arvand Sabetian, who is the owner of a web hosting company. In a brief search of campaign finance records provided by the Federal Elections Commission, no listings were found connected to Sabetian.

When asked for a specific reason Obama should be impeached, Collins said, “Giving arms to our enemies, you know, that sort of thing,” and provided a printed sheet that outlined 20 specific reasons including references to Obama’s vacations while 41 cents of every federal dollar spent is borrowed, the dropping of voter intimidation charges against two Black Panthers in Philadelphia and his refusal to release his long-form birth certificate.
“The Democratic Party of Lane County (DPLC) appreciates and respects our fellow citizens for exercising their First Amendment right to peaceably assemble,” said Chris Wig, DPLC Vice Chair.

Northern Kentucky--Horn-honkers cheer on Obama protesters

Standing behind oversized “Impeach Obama” signs and waving American flags, protesters took to overpasses in Boone, Campbell and Kenton counties this morning to voice their displeasure with the current administration.As part of the nation-wide “Overpasses for Obama’s Impeachment” movement, local residents manned overpasses over I-471 in Fort Thomas, and I-71/75 in Fort Wright and Florence, imploring motorists to show support by honking their horns.
They weren’t disappointed.
At the Kyles Lane overpass in Fort Wright, protesters could barely be heard over the sound of horns.
“It’s been great!,” said Vonda Pickens, the Independence mother who spearheaded the Northern Kentucky effort, an hour into the protest. “It was a little bit busier earlier, but the horns have been going on all morning. We’re pleased because, well, you never know.”
Below, motorists honked their horns and gave “thumbs up” signals to support impeaching President Barack Obama. A few stopped in traffic to shoot photos with their camera phones through their windshields.
Above, the protestors were emboldened.
“The sentiment in this country is boiling over to get this piece of trash out of the White House. It’s that simple,” said Ted McEntee, a retired postal worker from Park Hills.
“There’s a list of at least 50 different things he can be impeached for. Benghazi, The Associated Press, the IRS, Fast and Furious,” he began to list.
“The man is a socialist. He’s a Muslim. He’s never held a prayer breakfast,” he added. “They impeached Clinton for (oral sex), what are they going to do to this moron?”
Protesters wrapped the morning session after 9 a.m., but will return to their perches – facing the other direction to catch rush hour traffic heading home – from 4-5:30 p.m.

Winston-Salem, NC -- National wave of Anti-Obama protests set Tuesday
Posted: Monday, August 5, 2013 10:25 pm
Jenny Drabble/Winston-Salem Journal
In a national wave of protests, those opposed to the policies of President Barack Obama will rally at overpasses across the country Tuesday as part of “Overpasses for Obama's Impeachment.”
The protests, which feature anti-Obama signs and American flags hanging from the overpasses, will be in two “Patriotic Waves” with the goal of getting their message to people going to and from work. The first one will begin at 7:30 a.m.; a second wave will start at 5 p.m.
Michelle Taylor, the leader for Overpasses for Obama’s Impeachment-N.C., will lead a local protest at the Harper Road exit on Interstate 40 in Clemmons.
“A lot of people in Clemmons are for the president and don’t understand where we’re coming from, but then again, I used to be that way,” said Taylor, who said she voted twice for Obama. “I’ve never been involved in politics until now, and now I see the crimes he’s really doing.”
Taylor has already led three protests at the Harper Road overpass and said she has generally been met with support. She plans to add more signs this time.
And Clemmons will not be the only protest site. Taylor said she expects there to be protests on at least 200 overpasses in North Carolina, including in Asheville, Fayetteville, Rocky Mount and Greensboro.
About 30,000 North Carolinians have joined the national movement rallying for Obama’s impeachment, she said.
“I don’t know how we can be ignored when so many of us countrywide are participating,” Taylor said. “We just have to wake people up and get them to pay attention.”
The next “Patriotic Wave” is scheduled for Aug. 17, but Taylor said rallies by state groups will likely be held weekly.

Craven County, N.C.--Protesters Calling To Impeach Obama In James City
Updated: Tue 1:09 PM, Aug 06, 2013
http://media.graytvinc.com/images/us...protestors.jpg
A small group of protesters is standing on the pedestrian crosswalk in James City in Craven County, calling for the impeaching of President Barack Obama.
The group appears to be part of a group called "Overpasses for Obama's Impeachment," which urges people to put signs on overpasses across the country calling for the president to be impeached.
At 9:15 a.m., seven protesters were seen on the pedestrian crosswalk.
The group calls for people to ride the "Patriot Wave" today, August 6.
James City is a predominately African-American part of Craven County, and many residents were not very happy that the group chose their community to have their protest.
Another group says they protested on the U.S. 264 overpass, just west of Greenville this morning as well. Both groups say they plan to return this evening.
