Watching the National Leadership Conference for the "No Labels" movement at Columbia University. And gagging. These idiots just said they were going to rally under Ben Franklins "Join or Die" flag. Apparently this is video from 12/13.

Just a way to hide their Liberalism.

The democrat label didn’t work...
The socialist label didn’t work...
The liberal label didn’t work...
The progressive label didn’t work...

So they figure they might as well try “no label”

Any bets on how long that will last?

It’s beyond juvenile.

Any ‘movement’, organization, league, party, or whatever, that appears overnight, out of nowhere, stands for nothing, but already has a fancy logo, lots of money, lots of well known loser politicians in it, and instant coast to coast promotion in the media has to be another bogus democrat construct. Who else has the motivation and the dough? Nobody. Also, who else really believes that the public is stupid enough to buy it? Only the DNC is that shameless.

No labels means no names means no group to send donations to.
Sounds like a political suicide. Stand back and let them do it.

I like the no labels thing. I still have some of my old T-shirts and they itch my neck.

I would like to point out that “no labels” is a label.

I think George Will gets this one right.

The political fantasyland of the 'No Labels' movement

As others have mentioned, "no labels" will have a short shelf life.

"I wanna know if I'm buying beans or corn by the label on the can, man."

Thanks for the link to the George Will column, which nicely shreds the pretensions of this “no labels” b.s.

I note that two of their prominent speakers were Bloomberg and Crist.... to the extent this attempted “movement” means anything it’s a way to provided propaganda for liberals masquerading as “no labels” independents.

The guy on there now introduced himself as a conservative, then talked about legalizing drugs. LOL

No Labels has Frank Rich in a snit. But Will does it better.
Brief and to the point with wit. As opposed to long, drawn out and snarky.

And just exactly what, newbie would make those people idiots?

Well, no newbie; but opinion,nonetheless.

How about for starters; by kids with too large heads - thanks to the mush that fills them becomming idiots - by their listening, being influenced and persuaded by those who believe they have only to hijack a 'patriotism'- and call it their own.

Only their 'posing' is authentic; but they are selling themselves, using Ben Franklin's signature; and these kids are buying. . .

(As are 'students' of all ages and flotsam et al - and in general.)

What does Ben Franklin and his “Join or Die” flag have to do with a bunch of America-hating commie libs? This is just weird.
