Yeah he’s having a tinkle.
Well, the left conveniently forgets for right-wing events, every person who is there represents 100 at home.
Gotta add...so it is on interwebs and in print somewhere.
Democrats at Democraticunerground are really snarking and evil at this moment. They can’t find a good thing to say to save their soul. And frankly, I imagine if they were pressed they don’t want to save their soul.
That’s a quandry for me. I look at it and wonder, but CS Lewis, many others...we see and acknowledge their right to burn. They choose it. Willingly. So sad.
Praise Jesus...Christ, Son of God...the one true Lord of all...Amen.
Stop with the Anti-Mormon crap.
This is not about our differences.
From your link;
“Tehuti Imhotep came down from Baltimore with posters depicting black history from the middle passage through Martin Luther King’s 1968 march in support of trash haulers in Memphis. Imhotep shouted at passerbys. “This is our real history. (Beck’s) trying to redefine the civil rights movement,” he said. “How insensitive! King was about bringing people together. This man Beck is pulling people apart.”

10:22 a.m. - Several hundred people gathered at Dunbar High School as a band sung Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On” at a rally that Rev. Al Sharpton is calling the “Reclaim the Dream” march.”
Imhotep! Hey! That’s my middle name!
It would not surprise me if they were.
This was Sharpton’s comment on C-Span about his rally versus Beck’s:
“If anything, I think he’s holding a counter-rally. We’ve done these rallies for many years,” said Sharpton.
Yea - right /s
Alveda King up next
They will have speakers at the rally until 1 pm, after which the five-mile march will begin, reducing the chance for a conflict. Radio host Joe Madison says the line at Dunbar High School is still wrapped around the block because of a bottle-neck through the field door. A good portion of the football field and all of the bleachers are filled. The dozens of speakers here each have three minutes on the mic and will touch on everything from ending gun violence and the right of gays and lesbians to voting rights for the District.
We’ll about the only thing Obama didn’t promise was to make the trains run on time...;-)
Those are the ones living out of Mommy’s basement. The professional left is a whole other animal. Violent, disruptive, did I mention violent?
I’m a bit surprised I’ve not heard anything from this event but I know they will be there on 9/12. They though throwing out the whole racist line with their media lackeys would put an end to this upwelling of true Americanism. It didn’t work and they are pissed.
This is like sticking a red-hot poker on an exposed nerve to them. You can tell it's eating them alive!
The best thing we can all do - is for each and every one of us to pray that their hearts and minds will be touched by the spirit of truth. If enough of us do this - it will make a difference.
“For a man of faith, this is way over the top.”
I’m curious, how so? As in he’s showing a lack of faith in taking precautions? Thanks.
Well I know which Jesus I am glorifying for this amazing turnout. The One True Christ who was there from the very foundations of the earth. The Word who became flesh—the King of kings and Lord of lords!
It sounds as if this woman accepting on behalf of John Huntsman is talking about my Jesus, too!
a Football field, oh my. That’s funny.
If anything, Sharpton and friends should be proud that conservatives are honoring MLK.
This must be a good thing. I just made a 100 donation to Wounded Warriors. It felt great.
This show needs a little diversity. /s
They should have promised some free Obama stash. Perhaps then they could have filled a real stadium.
Another great woman - I love her too!
