Oh look they are reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.....and singing the National Anthem too! You RWNJs
must be shocked!
Gee, I wonder where they got that from? They are simply trying to mimic the Beck rally. Let's understand something here, this rally wouldnt be taking place if Beck didnt have one. Stewart's rally wouldnt be taking place if Beck didnt have one. They are simply trying to show up Beck. Nothing more. Sorry, but imo, thats a pretty **** poor reason to hold a rally, just to show up another person that you hate.
Did anybody other than meson see the executive director of the Progressive Democrats of America being interviewed? He surely was something. I don't know what but something. I wonder how many members they have.
The man has just announced that there are 1/2 million people there today.
Building bigger governments are not creating any jobs that build nations prosperity and wealth. Government taxes to pay for government spending.
Just think if everyone worked for the government. How would that work for you. When you work for the government, they own you. Literally.
That's a lot of pure phooey. No one suggests that "Everyone" works for the government at all. I'm just saying that this narrow ideology is just plain wrong and those that believe it show their own ignorance of both history and the reality of the present.
I would like you all to google "Saskatchewan" and take a good long and hard look at what has been accomplished there with a cooperative effort between the government and private enterprise. The government built "Potash Corp" so your contention that the government does not create jobs that build wealth and prosperity is just plain WRONG. Sask. has probably the most socialist system of any government in the western democracies and yet it's economy is booming. How is that possible if your statement has any truth to it at all? The fact that the "People" own and run key areas of the economy in no way diminishes the fact that these ventures both provide good paying jobs, create wealth and develop resourses. In many cases they do it far better than a private company either could or would. Just take a look at some facts of the matter. In Canada most electrical utilities are owned by the people. They provide a superior level of service and at a lower cost than almost any Privately owned American utility does for it's customers.
No oil company would invest in the development of the oil sands in Alberta so the federal government bought a large oil company, "Fina" and proceeded to develop a resourse that the oil industry just was not interested in. Well it was a loosing proposition because the cost of producing that oil was more than market price at the time but it opened up and began the process of exploiting a resourse that will produce Trillions of dollars of wealtyh for Canadians and also as an aside provide the USA with the energy security that they sooo badly need. I could cite litterally hundreds of such stories that prove without one single doubt that public investment in business of all kinds is not only equal to private investment in the benefits it produces for the society but in many cases is far superior to it and produces far more benefits to a much larger segment of the population.
Too many americans have been brainwashed for too long by the forces of economic control and power and I truly wish that more would take the time and energy needed to really study the whole issue and then would be able to discern the truth from the propaganda they are fed every day.
The right wing nut jobs are mad that it's a big party going on. Liberals have the most fun. Conservatives have no sense of humor. Dancing and singing. Music from all Genre.

Trying to mimic Beck's rally??? Gimme a friggin' break these people are actually having
a good time. Don't be afraid watch the live stream.
As a person that has family from a communist country. Yeah I find it rather scary that communist are welcomed in this event.
I guess you are a Family , Charity hater then right because I am sure you didnt approve of the Beck event
"Approve of the Beck event"? It was his right as an American to hold the rally. How could any American disapprove of someone exercising their right to free assembly and free speech? I sure don't.
As for your other insult, no I'm not a family and charity hater. I have a family and I give to charity. This is an example of what I don't like about Tea Party types. They think that anyone who isn't one of them is evil, immoral and un-American.

I fear that you are 100% right about why this rally is taking place. Also, I have to agree with the reason they are holding it.
