Angry Conservatives March On Washington
The Nashville Post ^ | September 11, 2009 | Adam Kleinheider

Posted on 09/11/2009 9:22:52 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Thousands of conservative activists will arrive in Washington, D.C., today for the Taxpayer March to protest government spending under the Obama administration.

The effort is a combination of individual grassroots activism and a coalition of right-leaning groups, including FreedomWorks and the National Taxpayers Union, who are supporting the effort. The 9/12 date sprung from an effort by conservative Fox News commentator Glenn Beck. Speakers at Saturday’s rally include: Dick Armey of FreedomWorks, as well as GOP Reps. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Mike Pence of Indiana, Tom Price of Georgia, and South Carolina GOP Sen. Jim DeMint. “As far as I know this is the largest gathering of fiscal conservatives in history,” says FreedomWorks spokesman Adam Brandon.

We're always "angry," or "disgruntled," or a mob or some such, aren't we? When the left protests it's for "world peace," "social justice," or to feed the hungry. One good thing about the last few years: Millions have had their eyes opened to the incredible media bias.

Basically says that 9/11 was our imperialist fault!

It looks as if anyone can post a comment. Maybe this needs a little friendly freeping...

Even staunch red states have peacecreeps, leftists, hippies and other anti-American elements.

Too bad the author wasn’t in NY on that day to see the results of the suffering and hate inflicted on innocent people.

Can you even imagine if people had reacted to the attack on Pearl Harbor like that?

The MSM will belittle it and say the crowd was smaller than what it really was, but, those thousands of people will go home and just by the word of mouth and the Internet, the public will compare what the crap the MSM is saying to what is the real truth and see who is lying.
