Of the 35 that showed up? This is SUCH a joke - at least across the Midwest.
‘The People’s Republik of Madistan’ rallied less than 200 and our local hippies love to smoke dope and screw in the streets, LOL!
What is UP with the media even giving this attention?
(Of course I KNOW...)
Flyover country comes through again!
Maybe Bloomberg was right New York is the place for them!
a city with millions,
a city which is one of the most liberal cities in America
a city which as one of the most union members
and all they can get is a few hundred and on a good day 1500
it really is pathetic but of course our silly corrupt biased pro homo cross dressing liberal media covers this crap while real news happens , oh like Egypt , funny how they want to ignore the country now.
ARF
<The Peoples Republik of Madistan rallied less than 200
What? A nice demonstration and the Madison libs can’t get more than 200 demonstrators? They aren’t even trying. : )
We have an Occupy Iowa City thing in the planning stages. If they wait too long, they will be occupying in the -20 winter weather. Whose bright idea was it to start demonstrating during this time of year?
“and all they can get is a few hundred and on a good day 1500”
Well I can see that you don’t get it all. :) It’s not the number of people that show up. It’s about how they feel about showing up. The left is all about feelings and if they feel good about the protests it’s all that matters.
