This could be the largest gathering of its kind in the U.S. on Labor Day. Hope a lot of Freepers can make it.

The left has already tried to downplay the significance of this event. There’s a lot of jealosy. They’ve called Nugent and Hank Williams “washed up” musicians, called Nugent “scum” and called the whole thing a “fake Labor Day message.” Ha! There’s no astroturf on top of that mountain. I’ve been there. There’s lots of green grass, the perfect spot for a grass-roots movement against liberalism which is destroying this country.

And yet they revered a drug addict creep like MJ that wound up murdering himself. CBS had at least five articles a day for two weeks for the King of Popsicles and Pedos...

God, watch over and protect them all. Don’t let the left start trouble. Let it be larger than expected and be there with them. Amen

“when are they going to get rid of Jay Rockerfeller?”

Probably never, which is sad. Byrd and Rockefeller will probably be in office until they quit or die. There is weak Republican opposition in West Virginia on the state level. There’s been rumors for years about Shelly Moore Capito R-2nd District, running for one of the Senate seats but she’s all that the GOP has. The other two congressmen are Dems and then, of course, you got Sheets Byrd and the Carpetbagger from New York.

Are there any updates to this story? Not a word on Drudge nor Fox News about this huge rally in West Virginia. Fox ran Obama's AFL-CIO speech live this afternoon, however. Grrr!

Hopefully Sean Hannity will have some coverage of this tonight on his FNC show... he was supposed to appear at this WV rally today.
