No it doesn't say it all. In fact it doesn't even begin to address the fact that the days of the neo-con Tea Party types acting like they are in the majority is over.

There is one thing sure about FSTV (FreeSpeechTV). You never see one, no not one, conservative talking there unless they are trying to make non-liberal thoughts something bad to their viewers.

I just whipped over to that channel and am amazed that I see nothing other than what I see there all the time.

Right now, for the atheists, I must say that they have a woman speaking from the Gospel of Luke. She is reading from the Holy Bible. I wonder how many of those honest people there she is pulling along toward something, whatever it might be.

Love that FSTV and I am so glad you revealed where it can be seen. I may even leave out 5 minutes per hour from watching college football each hour just for them.

CPUSA is only an endorsing group and are not "taking a large part" as you keep trying to sell. The rally's organizers were the AFL-CIO, the Service Employees International Union and the NAACP. The speaker's list does NOT include any socialist or community groups no matter how many times you try to manufacture "fake facts". Some of the speakers include: Ben Jealous (NAACP), Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Diana Oritz (Catholic nun), and Harry Belafonte (actor and political and humanitarian activist).

and your side didn't have a similar attitude before and after the last rally? come on, it works both ways..

I am anxious to see how big the turn out is or should I say, was? It is probably well underway or over by now.\

I am sure that there will be no integrated groups of young people (useful idiots) in attendance. Of course, they won't be carrying signs but I will certainly be watching to see if they are there as a group or being sent away by the union groups.

However, maybe you need to read this link to get more ideas about those people.

Don't look at either of these things or you may see the kind of connection I am talking about. Play it safe and keep talking about how wrong I am.

You know this thing is really a big deal when the unions have to pay for buses to get their members in attendance.

I wonder how many socialist groups have done the same thing.

This can't be a very peaceful rally with Code Pink in attendance and they will certainly be there.

Of course, nobody who doesn't agree with the unions and other lefties will be allowed since SEIU, according to one of our posters, is one of the main groups at the "rally". Remember what they did to that little black man at the St. Louis Tea Party? Their old leader, Andy Stern, said that they would have to use power to get their way and sure enough they demonstrated that at that rally.

Did the left have the same view towards the tea party rallies?

We all know the answer.

Have the unions bused in enough people to completely take over the Mall like individuals got themselves to Beck's rally? I wonder how many union members there are involved in Tea Partys.

I read both of those links the first time you posted them and found nothing much to get my panties in a bunch over. Contrary to Glenn Beck's belief, we're not endanger of communism taking over America.
