Coming late to the thread but what a mishmash of “goals” these communists have for the march. I agree it’s to pretend that Zero isn’t their friend,chief,& pseudo-messiah. From their website:
Where and Why We Are Marching
White House (start and end of the march)
The White House is the decision-making center of the U.S. empire, where all high-level decision on war and occupation are ultimately made.
U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
Faced with few and inadequate services, veterans are increasingly left to cope with the devastating psychological and physical impact of war on their own. Soldier suicides now surpass combat-related deaths in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Halliburton
Once headed by former Vice President Dick Cheney, Halliburton has become synonymous with war profiteering.
Washington Post
This “independent media” has been a staunch supporter of the U.S. invasion of Iraq, and continues to operate as an apologist for U.S. aggression. [joyjoy is ROTFL laughing at this claim—they just figure WAPO won’t give them enough column space otherwise!]
National Endowment for Democracy
As NED founder Allen Weinstein put it, the NED does overtly what the CIA used to do covertly. The NED has been responsible for numerous government destabilization operations in Latin America over the past three decades.
Mortgage Bankers Association of America
While war rages abroad, it also wages against working people at home. The housing crisis, driven by speculation from mortgage bankers, made the profits-over-people orientation of Wall Street and Washington clearer than ever.
Thanks. I’ll look at this later tonight when I return home.
