Uh-huh. Read the article. It's short. Pelosi and Menendez are going to be there along with a couple unions. All the favored groups. You Democrats really don't get the optics of this, do you?
SICK SOB's. These PC Democrats need to be arrested and tried for treason.
What did the Republicans think would happen when they shut down the government?
Oh you mean when both parties shut the gov down. Both are playing the same game. Give me all I want or I shut down the Gov. Both have the power to give in.
Eight Democratic lawmakers were arrested Tuesday while advocating for comprehensive immigration reform in front of the U.S. Capitol.
Democratic Reps. John Lewis of Georgia, Luis Gutierrez of Illinois, Charlie Rangel of New York, Raul Grijalva of Arizona, Joe Crowley of New York, Jan Schakowsky of Illinois, Keith Ellison of Minnesota and Al Green of Texas were all detained by Capitol Police. The politicians, along with activists who attended an immigration rally on the National Mall Tuesday afternoon, staged a sit-in near the west side of the Capitiol.
Authorities arrested the lawmakers for crowding and disrupting the streets around the Capitol. Police arrested almost 200 people during the protest.
What a pathetic act from some of our so-called "leaders". Hopefully their constituents will remember this and toss these low-live scum out of office. I am surprised to see that a representative from Texas is this much of an idiot.
From the Washington Examiner - "A planned immigration reform rally will take place on the National Mall on Tuesday even though the site is closed due to the government shutdown.
Organizers for the "Camino Americano: March for Immigration Reform" were spotted Monday setting up a stage and equipment on the National Mall for the rally which will take place on Tuesday."
There we go. Aging WWll vets who fought for this country are barred from the WWll Memorial. Immigrants who snuck into this country get to have a fiesta on the National Mall. Obama meant it about transforming this country.
0bama is playing politics with everything, he is truly a disgusting partisan hack.

The two sites are not exactly comparable.
[but either way, I think one should be able to visit both at will]

In the end both parties will agree to continue being irresponsible.
You don't have a clue what's going on... A perfect example of a low information voters.. Unbelievable absolutely unbelievable...
