They just showed the folding chairs right behind the orange snow fence, right in front of the stage. THERE'S NOBODY THERE!!! ROFLOL!!! The might have been 10 people in a couple hundred seats.
To: demkicker
There are children of slaves still around? They would be about 140 years old. The sense of unreality is growing...
To: dubyaismypresident
Where the commie chix cute? One was OK if you ignored the armpit hair and the horrible smell.
To: Carolinamom
Where did the crowd go?Happy hour starts at 5:00.
To: My Favorite Headache
bank account talks....gotta love this...wanna bet we get one more plate passing before this ends? I find it amusing there are some white people in the crowd who are probably putting their cash in that plate.
"Yes, here take my money, so you can campaign, so that you can take more of my money and insult me."
Sounds to my ears like some sort of serious twisted Masochism going on there.

I'm watching an attorney named Deadria Farmer-Paellmann, ranting about how much the Rail Road industry owes Black Americans; she now is speaking of a 91-year old plaintiff.
If I'm not mistaken, 91 years ago, slavery had long been abolished.
Thank God I'm no longer a Democ'RAT!!!!

One was OK if you ignored the armpit hair and the horrible smell. Doesn't she know she's not in France?
To: All
I hope "The corporations" bring to bear as much legal power as they can afford and crush these insects.
To: Interious
gonna rise up and shake off the shakles.
To: okchemyst
I had to turn the channel for awhile, and put a CD on. My eyes and ears needed a break.
I think I am now FOR reparations of some sort. I propose a one way ticket to the African nation of their choice, with the condition that they forfeit their US citizenship.
To: Carolinamom
Where did the crowd go? I just saw a sea of empty chairs. There have been a bunch of empty chairs up front ever since I turned it on quite a while ago. (I don't know if they were originally filled.)

Where did the crowd go? I just saw a sea of empty chairs. The VIP seats have been empty all day. At the beginning they had 2 rows full. Looks like less now.
"Y'all compact now! We gotta look good fo de cameras..."
To: mercy; jf55510
I'd love to see some of those emails. I haven't heard of this before now.
i want some money
To: Dan from Michigan
C-Span at this moment is showing some guy who was introduced as the "Prince of Israel". He mouthed a few words in Hebrew and claimed to represent the "real" people of Israel.
What a sad image on American Blacks. America already has had a fill of Reverend Jesse Jackson, Farrekan, and other black nuts that have fallen from the looney tree. Now here is a collection of hundreds of loonies, gathered in front of our nation's capital building, whoopin and a stompin for money, money, money.

I think I am now FOR reparations of some sort. I propose a one way ticket to the African nation of their choice, with the condition that they forfeit their US citizenship. Was that not offered to them 140 some years ago. By Lincoln, I believe.
To: My Favorite Headache
Is it just me, or do you get the feeling that none of "these peoples" (Diedra's words, not mine) work for corporations?
To: eddie willers
How many more hours does this Gimme rally have to go?
To: Carolinamom
Yeah ... huge frigging crowd ... I find as each "speaker" comes up ... I am using words that I NEVER usually use.
What a bunch of looser America hating panhandlers.
To: goldstategop
"You gotta wonder how they would be able to determine who would get paid on the remote chance this actually ever does get off the ground."
Sometimes these guys are pretty clever. The two most clever things they've done is to get away from the idea of checks directly given. This allows them to sidestep the issue of who is owed what. The second thing is to focus on the government as the bill-payer. This allows them to sidestep the issue of who owes what. You'll notice, however, that no one has mentioned the fact that these folks at this rally will not get a check. The checks will go to the black elites to be spent on their behalf.
