just NOT when folks need to be rescued out of harm's way, like before Katrina, at the direction of incompetent liberal mayors like Mayor Ray Nagin.

Five thousand conservative true believers cheered Fox News host Glenn Beck and other right-leaning firebrands at Right Nation 2010 in Hoffman Estates on Saturday night in a call-to-arms 45 days before Election Day.With his trademark chalkboard behind him, Beck invoked God, the Constitution and Thomas Jefferson. (Snip) He also ridiculed first lady Michelle Obama’s campaign to get people to eat healthier snacks like apples or carrots. “Get away from my french fries, Mrs. Obama,” Beck warned. “First politician that comes up to me with a carrot stick, I’ve got a place for it. And it’s not in my tummy.”
Beck railed against the media establishment, but then stopped himself and said, “I know that’s a little of the pot calling the kettle … I know I’m part of the media establishment.”

Britebart was great!
He told us how he tweaked the protestors, who by that way said they were protesting the “Beck hate”, however the protestors called Britebart a “homo” and they spit at him!

Tea Party, Protesters Clash At Glenn Beck Event CHICAGO (Sun-Times Media Wire) ―
Conservative radio and television commentator Glenn Beck speaks at a rally dubbed "Restoring Honor," on Aug. 28, 2010, on the 47th anniversary of civil rights leader Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech.
Even before Glenn Beck took the stage at the Right Nation 2010 gathering in Hoffman Estates Saturday, a sideshow started outside.
While 5,400 conservatives headed inside the Sears Center, about 200 protesters joined in song and prayer outside, accusing Beck, a Fox News commentator headlining the event, of promoting hatred and racism.

The NOLA newspaper Picayune were doing some serious investigative reporting before Katrina hit on the slumlords of the ninth and how Papa L (who set up HUD during Carter's Adm) had helped others to scam the government...The entire family was involved as were the Jeffersons..Alas no more investigation.
I agree about the partisanship of the Landrieu’s,
but in the case of such a horrendous state of
emergency, I’m pretty sure Nagin could’ve overruled
any such insane and deadly dictate.
Liberalism can literally kill.
i thought once you wus grown you could eat what you please

""I can't believe people paid money to come here," said Kerrie Rosenthal, 50, of Palatine, who came with several friends to protest the event. "Maybe people will stop and think, 'I'm coming into something hateful.'"
The protest was organized by the Rev. C.J. Hawking, executive director of Arise Chicago."

Fox News Chicago is a local left leaning TV station.
The commentator says; “Beck won’t be talking about hate”. Huh? As usual the media is biased.

“Rev. Rodney Reinhart, an Episcopal pastor from Harvey, and Rev. C.J. Hawking said they organized the protest with no help from the unions.”
Rev. C.J. Hawking is Executive Director of Arise Chicago (formerly the Chicago Interfaith Committee on Worker Issues) and serves as the Harry F. Ward Minister of Social Justice at the Euclid Avenue United Methodist Church in Oak Park, Illinois. During her 15-year history in faith-labor organizing, she has organized faith communities for union janitor campaigns in Florida, Ohio, and Indiana. She is the co-author of the forthcoming book Staley: The Fight for a New American Labor Movement (University of Illinois Press, 2009) and a visiting lecturer in labor and social movements at the University of Illinois. She holds a Master of Divinity from Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary.
Faith and Labor Solidarity
Groups of workers often face retaliation for their organizing efforts. Our Faith and Labor Solidarity program coordinates religious support for worker-led campaigns. People of faith meet with workers to hear their stories, pray, rally, march, fast, and draw media attention in support of workers’ struggles for justice. Arise Chicago also organizes an annual event called Labor in the Pulpit/on the Bimah/in the Minbar in which relgious congregations all over the Chicagoland area host union workers and leaders to speak, distribute information and raise awareness about local campaigns.

Thanks STARWISE.
Breitbart rocks. And so does Beck, although trying to belittle 6 out of 10 Americans is not the wisest thing for Beck to do:
CNN poll on Obama: 6 of 10 doubt U.S. birth story
http://www.kltv.com/Global/story.asp?S=12932570
6 of 10 people are uncertain the president was even born in the United States.
These 6 out of 10 also tend to be the backbone of US patriotism. Why do they [and I] have suspicions? Maybe this is one reason:
From the AP in 2004: Kenyan-born Obama all set for US Senate
http://www.fireandreamitchell.com/2009/10/14/from-the-ap-in-2004-kenyan-born-obama-all-set-for-us-senate
Then there is that whole witness thing, people who should know more than most of us about Obama’s BC and said he wasn’t born in Hawaaii: Tim Adams, his own wife, the Kenyan Ambassador, his own grandmother, the Kenyan Parliament Minister of Lands, the Kenyan Parliament Minister, and others.
Then there’s Christopher Strunk: Obama had to be an Indonesian citizen [compelling case].
So I guess we’re all just nitwits who Beck needs to put down. We’re just out talking gibberish — 60 percent of the nation. Yeah, we’re just goofy birthers.
