During an evening meeting at Freedom Plaza in Washington, D.C., protesters discussed plans to storm Capitol Hill Tuesday and create chaos inside and outside House and Senate office buildings.
“We will have people going in over time into all the different doors of all the different buildings,” said one of the organizers of the “Stop the Machine” movement to roughly 100 assembled protesters.
“Stop the Machine” was organized in commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the American invasion of Afghanistan and is distinct from the Occupy D.C. movement currently occupying McPherson Square.
At an appointed time and in a particular office building — both of which will be named at a meeting in Freedom Plaza Tuesday at 9:00 a.m. — the protesters plan to create a ruckus which they hope will shut down work on Capitol Hill.

First positive development of this movement.
Hopefully, they'll only take light casualties before they are forced to fall back to the Air and Space Museum. LOL!
Stop and occupy 1600 PA Ave.
I’ve found something on which I agree with the protesters. We are all better off any time the Congress is not “working”. I disagree with their “reason” and “logic” but the outcome works in our favor.
I have a feeling that they’ll find that tolerance will reach its end pretty quickly if they try.
However, I do like the idea of the democrats being forced into a face to face confrontation with their crazies.
There’s work on Capital Hill? I must have missed their sudden efforts to dismantle and defund ObamaCare, overrule the EPA, reign in the FCC, shutter the Department of Education...
Heck, the filthy Marxists might even save us a few billion dollars if they do occupy Capitol Hill.
I fully support that and OCCUPYING the Whitey Hut. Bout time. These people have been barking up the wrong tree.
You own this you skinny, Marxist, Community Agitator!
Their target is probably the republican controlled House.
Curious Fast Eddie from PA was stating earlier that protesters should pack it up and "go home"..
Isn't one of Obama's Czars going to invite them to use the Lincoln bedroom? Seriously, keep the crazies out of the museums; let's not encourage them to shut down one of the few museums that glorifies individual achievement and inspiration.
Kommie Kollege Kiddies Gone Wild!
They already have. Yesterday. Don’t know if it has reopened yet.
Which is why it'll never happen...
Now, the Democrats have to demonstrate against themselves and cause so much trouble that they have to declare martial law so that they can crush the Republicans who haven't demonstrated.
“the protesters plan to create a ruckus which they hope will shut down work on Capitol Hill.”
but Obama lovers won’t be able to pass his bill!

Yep. It might end up that way.
