Yes; it's proved on their website. But pretending your contention is true: anyone who doesn't want to go will be able to point to that very page as proof that they are NOT being forced. Or their lawyer can. Do you have similar written proof to back up your fervent hope?
When will you manage to admit that we read those things with different minds? I have done so and you haven't managed to do it yet.

Well, this rally seems to be a direct response to Beck's. Can you show where Stormfront or the KKK publicly endorsed Beck's? Or anywhere that the Tea Party allowed any public endorsements of either? Because it seems that the Tea Party has been very clear in disavowing both as any legitimate part of their movement.

Wondering why the One Nation Rally would tout the endorsement of the CPUSA.

Great site, if you want to support illegal immigration or possibly force amnesty on the nation. However, it appears to me that they failed to take in all sources of foodstuffs. Here in the breadbasket of the nation where most of the grain that is milled for food, we happen to have very few illegals employed other than in feedyards where they can stand the smell that city people don't want to have to smell.

Anyway, it seems to me that that thing proves very little other than that so many people on both coasts who pick fruit and vegetables will work for the wage that they can get. Where else can they make more than at home?

Are you saying that only unions are paying for this gathering of "useful idiots" as the communists have always called people like them?

Can you show me some proof of Stormfront or the KKK supporting any Tea Party rallies? Surely you can do so since so many left leaning sources have done so. I guess they endorsed only, like the CPUSA. Why don't you look at the CPUSA website and see what they say about their part in this thing? Just for the hell of it.

Did he really?

What right wing groups other than unionbusters would ever be involved in anything to do with this scary stuff? OF COURSE they're all doing everything in their power to keep you away from it!

Putting the CPUSA and the other socialist organizations in their list expanded the number of endorsing groups. I haven't heard one word from these progs about Green for All being one to the groups. Green for All is Van Jones' group and surely all of these people have seen his performances at PowerShift, 09 by now.

It just seems that numbers is what counts with the people in charge of this thing.

Joining them are anti-American, anti-Israel groups: Stalinist ANSWER Coalition; and the terrorist supporting Obama funders Code Pink and United for Peace and Justice, which since its inception and until recently was led by noted communist Leslie Cagan. Listed on the sidebar as sponsors are anti-American groups Veterans for Peace and Iraq Veterans Against the War.

All have supported terrorists in Iraq who were killing American troops and liberated Iraqis.

Also listed as partners of the One Nation rally are the Communist Party USA; the Democratic Socialists of America; the International Socialist Organization; and the War Resisters League.

One Nation Working Together also lists as a partner the American Muslim Association of North America, whose leader Sofian Abdelaziz Zakkout was fired this summer by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights for his ties to Hamas and David Duke.


You prove that I am wrong and then prove that none of these groups are sponsors. I will admit to taking this list from the Free Republic but I also saw all of them on that home page.
I have provided a link to the list of ENDORSING organizations several times in this thread but you must not have looked at it or you would have seen some of those groups you mention are in with the other 100s of groups ENDORSING the rally. I'll say it again. ENDORSING is not and never has been the same as SPONSORING. None the groups you listed are sponsors i.e. they aren'tinvolved in board decisions, planning, funding and development of One Nation Working Together.

These are union employees we're talking about here, many of them don't work Monday - Friday nor on Saturday and Sunday.

Oh, my, God. The OP's source is a thing called "The Blaze." GUESS WHO THE BLAZE IS!!!

About TheBlaze | The Blaze

"The Blaze is a news, information and opinion site brought to you by Glenn Beck and a dedicated team of writers, journalists & video producers."

O welly welly well!!!!

So this is Glenn Beck, online where he's not constrained by pesky lawyers and he can lie and sponsor lies all he wants to!!!!!

HE KNOWS YOU PEOPLE ARE SUCKERS!!!! I'd laugh but it's too sad.

Is that justice down at the end of that list "social justice"? Su, social.

Ah yes, Beck did say that he would like to see 2 million there. I don't think there are enough buses on the east coast to get that many, but maybe they will be in the water or somewhere. I wonder what the place will look like Saturday night. Will it be as clean as it was after Beck's rally?
