From this page, the phrase "Together We Thrive" is linked to stopping racism:
Oh, here is another shirt they sell...

White House operatives passed out t-shirts to the crowd with Obama's new campaign logo, 'Together We Thrive.' The words were also taped to the seats in which mourners would sit during the service.
Bump.
“Together We Thrive”
or
“Independent and Strong”
(communal versus individual)
Wonderful post .. thank you
Yes, same here (SC) could get on and "read" last night, but couldn't post. Getting kind of aggravating. I do "contribute" and the money doesn't seem to help. Wonder what's wrong?
A funerally for sure. Classy ‘bams.
"Thriving Will Set You Free"
This shooting was a tragedy that has now been turned into a farce. A memorial service should be held someplace quiet and dignified -- like a church. It sounded like a pep rally because it was held in the venue of a pep rally.
Hear Obamas’ speech last night regarding the AZ shooting. My
impression was, what a bunch of crap, rhetorical chin music
using his considerable, con man, abilities to make political
hay out of a tragedy. A tragedy which had nothing to do political differences but rather a single deranged individual period. Democrats are lucky that there are so many uninformed Americans that they can manipulate with the aid of an all too liberal press. I must admit they are masters at the art of deflect and redirect. Republicans have to wake up and start using the same tactics, forget the nice guy stuff, the public is with you and slowly catching on to the tactics of the dems. I just hope it’s not too late.
Together we slouch towards Gomorrah
Lesson 101 in community agitating. Give away free stuff and put your political slogan on it.
Just what does “Together We Thrive” have to do with a memorial service for shooting victims and since when is there a name given for a memorial service? There were concession stands for heavens sake. This was nothing but an opportunist using the murder of these people as the kickoff to the 2012 Presidential election.
I’m trying to picture myself still trying to deal with the loss of a loved one, and what would my reaction be to the words, “Together We Thrive”
Thrive?
Really.
It’s just so absolutely bizarre.
Who would think of a word like “Thrive” during a time like this?
sfl
This was orchestrated not for the purpose of the victims and families but soley for the purpose of getting the Democrats off the hook for their outrageous behavior the past week. The ball is now in conservative’s court, if they continue to criticize, it will be them who chose not to “thrive together.”
There's a lot of 1860 in the air . . .
interesting that the aide of Giffords is setting next to Obama and Kelly is stuck sitting by Michelle.
I don’t like the “Let’s not turn on each other” rhetoric. That denies the reality, which is that the Left manufactured derogatory lies all over the place, including in our once-great newspapers, not just on Twitter. If we responded with a spirited defense, that is not “turning on each other.”
There were not only cheers, there were screams. Like at Shea Stadium when the Beatles appeared.
