Well of course the primary embarrassment is that the teabaggers are so easily duped into believing a FOX-endorsed starstruck book tour is actually a grassroots event.
The primary difference between the two events, one was about promoting one Nation of diverse peoples. The other about promoting one would be Saint Beck.
Close. The 8/28 rally was for ALL American's to come together to restore Honor in Washington and bring back the faith that keeps this country together.
The One Nation rally was a way for a bunch of people to get together to whine about Glenn Beck.

That's fine. Republicans probably won't have a veto-proof majority, and Obama can run against the Republican Congress in 2012. It's worked in the past for Reagan and Clinton, and I see no reason why it can't work again.
Because the country does not like the direction Obama is taking it and that is NOT going to change just because republicans win this NOV. Obama is not going to change that he wants to transform America.
Most people know that electing republicans this NOV is not going to make the changes they seek but stop the bleeding and making things worse. That we'll have to wait to vote Obama out to get that. So we'll sit and wait till that day comes but till it does the democrat hard left agenda will be over
The Republicans are about as likely to cut the size of government protecting the plutocrats that own them and their monopolies or a CEO his unearned bonus for bankrupting his company. They are one in the same - completely self centered frauds and wanna be aristocrats.
I was outraged that FOX put on their All White/All Astroturf "I Have A Scheme" Extravaganza on the steps of Lincoln Memorial on the very same day Rev. Martin Luther King Jr had his "I Have A Dream" speech. I was around during those spirit-filled MLK days, and realize how very destructive and dehumanizing "the message" of Beck and Palin is
Fact is in politics when you cannot win based on your accomplishments or voting record and the nation is blaming the party. The party will always resort to attacking the opposition. The Democrats are having a hard time because in 08 the republicans basically handed them the win. They didn't really get a high it was more of a republican low.
Now the democrats are in a position where there speaker Nancy Pelosi has been labeled not only the most powerful speaker ever but also the most hated speaker ever. No one wants to be associated with her but they are handcuffed to her. People are hating that the economy has not moved forward and the democrats are not doing anything to show how to improve it. They are staying the course. As a result they resort to attacking the republican philosophy.
I don't agree that the repubs handed Obama a win. I was closely following the campaigns, and McCain actually had a chance. The stock market crash along with his ill-advised Palin pick were the 2 big blows.
But, everything was in place for Obama to win. The Bush bashing was at an all-time high, and then the economy (i.e. stock market, housing market) tanked.
The timing was so bad for McCain, but he still ran a decent campaign, and won many states. The moral of the story???
There are many common-sense Americans who did not vote for Obama just because he was the alternative. Think of how many ignorant voters jumped on the Obama bandwagon? Think of all the people on the fence who jumped to Obama when Mccain picked palin or when the stock market crashed.
Do you think those voters are going to make the same mistake again? Don't you think they will be motivated to correct their own faulty vote?
It should be a landslide for the GOP
