A planned immigration reform rally will take place on the National Mall on Tuesday even though the site is closed due to the government shutdown. Organizers for the "Camino Americano: March for Immigration Reform" were spotted Monday setting up a stage and equipment on the National Mall for the rally which will take place on Tuesday. A few scattered barriers around the park have signs informing visitors that the area is closed as a result of the government shutdown. Susana Flores, a spokesperson for the rally, confirmed for the Washington Examiner that the Park Service will allow the event to

So, in reality, national property is closed to only those folks Obama doesn’t like, which appears to be pretty much all citizens except illegal ones.
But they’re not citizens, the shutdown doesn’t apply to them.
Okay, so he’s poking the bear. The created drama over the shutdown is an embarrassingly obvious in-your-face shove. What reaction is he hoping to get from Americans? What do you think he wants?
Called my congressman (who has so far stood strong against ObamaScare and Hussein’s terrorist tactics) and let the staffer know about this, and the 445 million dollar gift to the corporation for “public broadcasting” (’rat propaganda wing) during the same time as the Amber Alert system being shut down. I asked if if we should perhaps “Occupy” these memorials which belong to Americans, since the left are such great supporters in occupying people’s private property to make their “points”, and since people representing those who aren’t even Americans are being given access to the memorials from which Americans are barred.
WWII vets? No se puede :(
My loathing of the illegitimate, bisexual, Marxist Kenyan Muslim Usurper requires medication.
I’m a little skeptical about this. If it is true this needs to get out. People will be outraged!
ping!
Passing it around the blogs,,we have to keep exposing the wretches living in the Spite House!
Just think of the horrible optics this will create (for the Obama team). for that reason alone I’d like to see it go on. I want to see pics of the illegal rally, with the Dems speaking,,,and put those alongside the snotty Park Rangers denying the vets access. Even more indisputable evidence how the Obama drama is pure politics!
In fact, I am going to suggest to Menendez that this thing get lots of press coverage and pictures to boot! Let them Dems hang themselves even further!
I hear ya.
Evidently not.
As this article points out, criminal illegal aliens are exempt from the "closures."
Oh beautiful for spacious skies
For Amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America! God sheds His tears on thee,
Now crowned thy good with 'Bamas hoods,
From sea to shining sea!

“Camino Americano”
is the Washington DC exclamation point on hundreds of actions across the country for immigrant dignity and respect. Tens of thousands will come to the National Mall to share stories of suffering and strength and demand passage of commonsense immigration reform. Confirmed speakers range from civil rights legend Julian Bond to Maryland mom Alicia Silva, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi to iconic singer Lila Downs. Starting with a somber reading of the names of people who have died at the border or been deported, it will close with a rousing march to the U.S. Capitol where hundreds of national leaders will take hard-hitting action to send a message to Congress - the Time is Now: America Needs Immigration Reform.
Speakers begin at 10th Street on the Mall at noon where activists will welcome world-famous Los Tigres Del Norte, a six time Grammy winning political ensemble considered the “Voz Del Movimiento” for its litany of songs focused on the lives of undocumented immigrants. Unete Con Nosotros
Unbelievable Chutzpah Ping.

Excellent idea. Time for another one of those “Million Biker Marches”, or something along those lines. Maybe a “Million Veterans March”. Sounds like a good idea to me. Let’s see if they can close off our monuments when the strength of numbers is against them.
Nope. It would hurt Mohammed’s feelings. Worse than a video.
