Robert Reich, the former Labor secretary, scholar and commentator, called Tuesday for a “march on Washington” on Sept. 13 —“Grandparents Day” — in support of a health care bill that offers a public option.(Snip)A group of conservatives have already announced a “tea party” movement march on Washington for Sept. 12. An opposing march the next day, if one were to materialize, could make for an interesting weekend.

Bring

It

On!

[Zevonismymuse]

Bring it on indeed!

[Jack Black]

I can see this getting really ugly.

[Hang'emAll]

I think they will come up short for this.

[proudbirther]

Captions, anyone?

[Mariner]

A clear case of irreconcilable differences.

[Salvey]

Calling ACORN! Calling SEIU thugs! Calling Fruit of Islam! Calling Sharpie Sharpton’s National Action Network!

[COBOL2Java]

I think they will come up short for this.

Certainly Robert Reich will...

[Brad's Gramma]

Isn’t he that really short guy?

[dragonblustar]

They’’l bus in the union members and ACORN hacks..

[Uncle Ike]

Oh, I think our people could stay over an extra day to properly greet our counterparts on the Left....

[evil grin]

[browardchad]

I think they will come up short for this.

Double entendre. Double points.

[Puppage]

Where’s the rest of him?

[Recovering_Democrat]

What that munchkin doesn’t realize is that one already exists: Hussein and his sycophants. And they’re losing the battle of public opinion.

big time.

[Dr. Ursus]

Baby steps!

[pepsionice]

Can you imagine twenty thousand folks on one side opposing four thousand folks on the other side...and fists start flying?

Everyone gets dragged off to a hospital, and treated no matter what. At some point, some Fox guy will ask why a hospital would treat anyone for free, and then things will fall apart fast at the White House.

Yet another Rat mob

[Radagast the Fool]

I didn’t know Reich was capable of walking and chewing gum at the same time.
Thanks, FreeRepublic, for enlightening me!

[WKUHilltopper]

Robert Reich?? Oh, No! The Smurfs are revolting!! Watch your knee caps!

[Oratam]

He shops in the Boys department.

[proudbirther]

Reich is 4’10”, but what’s most amusing about him is his Lollipop Guild Munchkin voice (if you’ve ever heard him speak).

[Bigg Red]

I think they will come up short for this.

&&&
Yeah, I wonder who put Reich up tp it....

[Kansas58]

Me too.
I think the anti Obamacare forces started earlier.
I also think that we have the energy and will swamp them, in numbers.
They need to do this BIG, on the Obamabot side, or it will be worse for them than not doing it at all.
Also, some of our folks could stay for another day, just to heckle the Marxists -—
But then the media would claim our people were THEIR people, so I am not sure how to play that.

Since we’ve already gotten the busses tied up, they can be transported by the traditional National Socialist Party boxcars.

[KarlInOhio]

Let's say 100,000 marchers paid at $10/hour for a full 8 hour day will be $8 million. Plus you'll need to put them in hotels (let's say average of $40/person with multiple per room) and bus or fly (pick up an average of $100 each for transport) them in the day of the protest. They'll probably want to be paid for their transport time, so that's another $8 million. That's a total of about $30 million to organize the pro-Obamacare spontaneous rally. Oh, Mr. Soros?

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

I think they will come up short for this.

They have to be ‘paid’ to march.

[Jeff Chandler]

Bu dum ching!

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

How about a march on Robert Reich?

[ari-freedom]

Stand with Reich!

[RC2]

I believe Reich is trying to make his own news by pitting the right against the left. You may get a riot on your hands. If the left does what he wants, they should do it only if he’s standing in front of the crowd.

[vaudine]

Shut up and stand up, Robert!---Oh! You are standing up.

vaudine

[Palladin]

Why doesn’t that little gnome just go back under his toadstool?

[pennboricua]

I am not 100% certain, but I am almost sure he was one of the Lollypop Kids in the Wizard of Oz.

[Nonstatist]

That one is going to need a lot of police on hand. My expectation is that it will be mostly “local” folk.

Or, in this case, "Deny the Grandparents Medical Care Day".

[TLI]

This is one of the high profile "geniuses" of the Clinton era that not even zerø would hire...

[Recovering_Democrat]

At the rally, Obama introduces his new Senior Citizen Health Czar...

Short Commies got no...Whoops...Short people got no reason to live..... R NEUMAN

[raptor29]

Well, no fear of anyone missing work for that rally.......

[MarkL]

When the Obama administration buses in the assorted "rent-a-mobs" and "rent-a-thugs" from acorn and the unions, since they're being paid, do those count as jobs created under the stimulus?

[Welcome2thejungle]

Sieg Heil to the Reich!

[t1b8zs]

Buying votes does not always involve cash and may show up long down the road......Like CANCER

[CaliforniaCon]

....stand UP, Robert!!!......

[lexington minuteman 1775]

There is a FREEPER convention in Arlington Va the 11-13...I assume they could confront Reichstags short march to the river...

[cvq3842]

Excellent point!

[Palladin]

There will be way more than 20,000 on the patriots’ side.

It will be more like the 100,000 that show up every January for the Prolife March...which the MSM always estimates at “about twenty thousand”.

I’m so happy that FOX is covering this historic march on Washington. Wish I could be there, but physical problems prevent it. But I will be watching it intensely, and rooting for and praying for our side!

I believe he was referring to Alice's tea party in Wonderland.
