Interestingly, no native americans, hispanics, asians or african-americans are seen in the crowd. Hmmmmm. Wonder why? Certainly racism couldn't be a factor, right? Maybe the red-shirts (sorta like brown-shirts) really are the 'Party of One'; as in one race... a frustrated, cranky crowd of homogenous homophobics. <br /><br /> And I love all the religious signage & posters. Ofcourse, nothing is mentioned about aiding the sick, the poor or the dying; who fall daily through the cracks of our "for profit" healthcare system. "What would Jesus do?" Well I guess Jesus would've attended this rally - to PUNISH those who use his name while denying service to the sick and needy! <br /><br /> I don't recall ever seeing this crowd while Bush and the Republican-lead Congress aquandered a $250 Billion surplus AND racked up $7 Trillion in deficit spending, before being kicked out of office. No tea drinking 'Joe Sixpacks' then, were there? No sir-ee. <br /><br /> My guess is that 99.9% of this crowd is presently enjoying a tax rebate (< $250,000 per year income)and may have something left in their 401K's. Which had the President not acted, the economy might have completely tanked, and they would have ZERO, right now, and be standing in a soup kitchen. Better a tea bag than a soup kitchen!<br /><br />Gary T<br />Dension, TxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
