#2 Fringe groups? Those are mainstream. Liberals really believe in that shit, they just can't say so publicly.

#4 The first American 'Revolution' had its Tories too. When the Brits used Indian auxiliaries during the Sarasota campaign the Tories in the area sat it out or joined the other side. They were stronger in the south, till Kings Mountain when they got Tarleton's Quarter, fading back into the woodwork afterward.

So, yes, bring the hard core anti-American crowd while accusing the Tea Party of being 'racists'. Let the blogsphere shine with images of non-planted commies and their traveling companions.

#5 The march, called "One Nation Working Together," is sponsored by the AFL-CIO, the NAACP, the Service Employees International Union, La Raza, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the American Federation of Teachers, the Rainbow Push Coalition, the Campaign for America's Future, and several other activist groups. The event is also being promoted by Organizing for America, the permanent wing of the Obama presidential campaign, which is sending out email notices to members asking that they travel to Washington to take part.

All the usual/useful idiots/suspects.

#9 Because class war (hating someone because of their parents) and racism (hating someone because of their parents) are just not similar.

#15 I would love to see some well-documented photographic evidence comparing the grounds of the Lincoln memorial and National Mall after the Beck rally and this one. My liberal friend made a stink about all the out-of-towners coming into DC for the Beck rally and implored them to "leave the grounds as you found them." Of course, she made no mention of it after the fact because it was left virtually spotless. So I'd love to show her how America-loving citizens of moderate political persuasion treat our public grounds versus these America-hating left wingers who want to see the USA as we know it destroyed and replaced with their notion of a socialist/Marxist utopia.

#17 Private Eye- Given that most of the "attendees" will most likely be professional protesters bought and paid for by the various unions and labor groups behind the event, I would expect nothing less. I just want to show the evidence to my friends, if it exists, so they can see the difference in civility between the two groups.

Some of my friends are of the set that believe most of the Tea Party/Beck crowd are fear-mongering white racists who are too dumb for their own good. As you might expect, they get most of their news and commentary from John Stewart and Colbert. Of course, I'm forever pointing out that their accusations and stereotyping are no different than claiming they are all reverse fear-mongering, reverse racist elitists who think they (i.e. the government) have a right to tell other people how they should live their lives because it's more "fair" or "for the common good". Other than that, I promise you they are lovely people.

#18 Yes siree, the original, one and only Astroturf(tm). Not some 'grass roots' made in the America heartland by non-union labor mom and pop working every day and trying to make a living by honest work. Nope, the original for hire with grants and payroll deductions to make for MSM political theater to impress the rubes.

#19 It might be interesting to have a video of the hundreds of buses used to bus in the 'grassroots protesters' to the event. they must have some sort of organization to unload the buses and reload them for the trip over afterwards.

Isn't Organizing for America funded by the government? Or has received Tarp/Stimulus funding?

#20 Hundreds of empty buses? In Springfield, MA 3 signed up out of 2000. In Worcester, 4 have signed up, out of 3000. A whopping 42 are signed up from New Brunswick, NJ...8 will be there from Boston. lol.

So far, about 800 total have committed. Those should probably be committed lol.

#21 No problem. I;m sure the MSM will fill in with footage from Glen's rally. A little cropping here, some fill in there, duplication over there....

No Problem.

#24 A perfect opportunity to use stimulus money to refurbish all those Big Giant Puppets, or fund street entrepeneurs bulk purchases of Che t-shirts and Mexican flags...
