A few points to consider as you wake up


The ‘One Nation’ rally happened this weekend. The majority of the crowd was bussed in by union groups and other leftwing groups. Compare that to tea party activists, the majority of whom pooled their money to go to DC for the 8/28 rally.

A large segment of the crowd was paid to be there. Unions pay. Tea party groups and Glenn Beck did not on 8/28.

Nonetheless, the crowd was sparse — so sparse that even the Associated Press was compelled to take note of it.

Of those who were there though, they were unapologetically of the left. Assorted communists, socialists, union goons, and Democrats. But I repeat myself.

The Communist Party USA openly bragged about its effort to turn out the crowd in defense of its darling socialist Barack Obama. The left is finally being honest. They are embracing their socialist/communist identity.

They even held up signs and banners proclaiming the return of the Reds.

Anyone who is surprised by this, Erick,...

…simply hasn’t been paying attention, or is totally unaware by choice of the Left’s plans for America.

We will remember in November.

 

J Edgar Hoover was also there, in spirit

We took pictures of almost all of them. I thought “taking names” would be hard.

and a driver’s license database would be much more discrete and the names more likely to be factual.

And some got class credits by being there.

The amount of propaganda that was there

mirac777 (Diary) Monday, October 4th at 7:07AM EDT (link)

Was pretty amazing, considering that Communism is illegal in this country.Where are the checks and balances in our govt today to stop this type of propaganda from promoting the overthrowing of our Constitution? 90% of the books and pamphelts being pushed there were for Communist revolutionary tactics. They tried several tricks to stop Becks rally, including denying them security. Noone objected to a bunch or Anti-American socialists, community organizers who are nothing more than Communists, and the rabble-rousing race-baiting NAACP begging for more Reparations from trashing our capitol and pimping Anti-American literature.Don’t forget the Unions were also there. you know the ones who shared offices with ACORN, the vote fraud arm of the SEIU and Barack Obama.
Where is the Anti-Communist League of the old days, where these people were kept in check by the FBI and CIA ? As I stated before this rally, it will be a good thing in one way.It will expose Barack Hussein Obama to be the Socialist he truly is. These groups of Anti-Americans represented over 90% of the propaganda machine who got Barry elected in 2008. These are the REAL community organizers where Barack got his start. The onther 10% of Anti-American “Community organizers” that didnt make it were not allowed to go by law. Know why? Because they now work in your Gov’t and Whitehouse!
One last thing here: those who called Beck a Fear-monger, and a nutcase can now eat double-helpings of crow! You are guilty of believing the propaganda from this exact group of Anti-Americans instead of a true American who wants nothing more than to help protect America! I take nothing for granted today. I do my research. I question everything Glenn says too.I know the difference between the truth and Socialist lies and propaganda. Whats sad is that many self-proclaimed conservatives who should know better, also believed Barack’s lies and still do. That is truly sad .

United we stand…. Divided we fall.. into the pits of Socialism.

What state do you really think our constitution is actually in?

dajeeps (Diary) Monday, October 4th at 9:23AM EDT (link)

The Constitution is now in a state of perception where it means what Congress and the Courts say it means for the sake of expediency, not what’s written. To me, it more than likely has already been overthrown, with only portions of the Bill of Rights being enforced and who knows for how much longer we will go before even those few amendments that still have some meaning will last.

Fortunately for us, it was written in plain english on purpose and the founders left copious amounts of documentation on what they believed it to mean. So there is still hope it will be restored after this detour into authoritarianism and the centralized administrative state meets its inevitable end. Even before that, though, Congress can fix this, but it is up to us to demand it and accept nothing less than each member upholding their oath which does not include protecting and defending social programs and various forms regulatory dictates.

It's better now than it was 30-40 years ago

RedBeard Monday, October 4th at 7:07AM EDT (link)

Back then, if you called a leftie a leftie, or called a socialist a socialist, the denials, outrage, and self-righteousness indignation would drown out the truth. Now, they’re putting it right up front so everyone can see who and what they are. Hubris, I believe, is the word of the day.

The curtain is down and they can’t deny it any longer. With our Socialist in congress and the White House they feel they have the power to move forward now without fear. What I pray they have done is under estimated the resolve of the true American people. We have to put them back in the box come November.

 
 

There were a number of videos taken,

politicalqrm Monday, October 4th at 7:15AM EDT (link)

showing socialist and communist literature,, including the Communist Manifesto.

I wonder if any of those marchers have ever picked up any of these items and really read them. I wonder if they have any idea what these principles really stand for and how few rights they would have if they were followed. Fools…they think living in a socialist or communist society is Utopia.

Remember what Ronald Reagan said: “How do you tell a Communist? It’s someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-communist? It’s someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

 

What does this say about ed shultz

Et tu, AP?

Tapping into the same anger that fuels the tea party movement, a coalition of progressive and civil rights groups marched Saturday on the Lincoln Memorial and pledged to support Democrats struggling to keep power on Capitol Hill.

“We are together. This march is about the power to the people,” said MSNBC host Ed Schultz. “It is about the people standing up to the corporations. Are you ready to fight back?”

(Snip…)

The event drew a thousands-strong smattering of groups, from those who wore their union T-shirts and others who carried banners advocating expanding Medicare for all Americans. While the Beck rally stretched down the iconic National Mall, Saturday’s event seemed smaller along the reflecting pool and other monuments.

(Snip…)

“Our strength is your strength,” said SEIU’s president, Mary Kay Henry. “We are one nation, coming together.”

Obama was spending the weekend at Camp David, the presidential retreat in Maryland.

Et tu, AP?

No doubt from some of the speakers I heard on CSPAN is that these people are full of hate.

Are there

timchgo9 (Diary) Monday, October 4th at 9:43AM EDT (link)

anymore photos of the rally, so we can get good idea of how many were there? It looks like, in the photo above, that there are people stretching down both sides of the reflecting pool….of course it could just be my bad eyes..

What was the number? 100,000? 250,000? less than 100,000? the crowd looks large..but that could be deceptive.

I hope this wakes people up

I hope that this makes it clear to indpendents and moderate Democrats (if such a thing exists) that there is only one choice in November. If you love your freedom and this country, you must vote conservative. We can disagree all day long on social issues ( I am socially conservative), but we can agree on limited government and fiscal responsibility. We have to come together and defeat the spread of socialism in this country by sending a clear message on Nov. 2.

Legacy Democrats might find this gathering of loons to be a tipping point

RedBeard Monday, October 4th at 10:19AM EDT (link)

I know a few registered Democrats who think conservatively on almost every issue, but who still vote for the non-Republican candidates. No thinking, just habit, from back in the day when there still were conservative Dems running for office.

Maybe a few will now wake up and realize that the Democrat Party has been completely co-opted by the Red Brigades and the Looney Tune contingent.

Notice the erie call to total uniformity?

“we are one nation” etc, hey, what happened to diversity, difference, individuality? Like everything else, down the tubes with the ’08 election.
It’s the revolt of the parasites.

Nonetheless

Nonetheless, the crowd was sparse — so sparse that even the Associated Press was compelled to take note of it.

Nonetheless, can you show me where they printed it? Just because they are not reporters and I do not think the AP (Ahole Press) would do anything to hurt the left.
They have shown their BIAS once or twice.

Because it so annoyed liberals, with whom I dealt daily, in the eighties and nineties I plastered my letter heads and signature crawls. “Stealth Campaign, Draft Dick Armey for President.”

I still think it is a good idea, but not as much fun because it now annoys fewer folks. At least a lot of people are finally waking up, the ones that somehow thought Carter was O.K. Geez.

 

They could only afford to buy a "small" crowd?

dambama Monday, October 4th at 11:26AM EDT (link)

You would think with all the money funneled to the left, by the unions, George Soros, Obama’s government, and these special interest groups, like the commies and socialists, they could afford to purchase a larger crowd than this.

This association of America haters is weak, and this rally proves it.

 

It was Reported

caboose Monday, October 4th at 11:35AM EDT (link)

yesterday that C-SPAN deliberately posted pictures from the Glenn Beck gathering on 8-28, in an attempt to dupe the American people into believing that the communist gathering was biger than Beck’s. C-SPAN has become the Pravda, for the Democrat socialist communist in this country. They must be exposed for their attempt to defraud America with their propaganda.
