Groups forming to counter Beck Rally on 8/28
« on: August 21, 2010, 11:25:47 AM »
Fundraising off of Beck Hate ?  What would Dr. King think?

http://www.celebratethedream.org/

Quote
On August 28, 1963, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., a modern-day Founding Father, delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech.

On the 47th anniversary of King’s historic proclamation, far-right fearmonger Glenn Beck will hold a self-serving press event on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. He’s trying to co-opt King’s Dream, with a Nightmare message to his throng of followers.

Don’t let this buffoon diminish a day that belongs to all Americans. Join us to Celebrate the Dream and Reject the Nightmare. Please help us make it happen with a tax-deductible contribution today.

Of course, Al Sharpton has smelled the money too.  (Is this an annual event for him, or just a BeckHateFest?)

http://www.nationalactionnetwork.net/media-info/press-releases/376-47th-anniversary-of-the-historic-march-on-washington.html

Quote
47 years ago, the March on Washington took place where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his I Have a Dream speech at the March on Washington. 47 years later, Rev. Al Sharpton and the National Action Network invites you to reclaim the dream.  We’ve made progress but our struggle still continues. Please join us and register for the historic Reclaim the Dream Rally and March on Saturday, August 28th in Washington DC at Dunbar High School at 11 am. National Action Network will mobilize progressive leaders, clergy, activists and "Dream Keepers" for a mass rally. There are conservative groups and tea party members that are holding rallies the same day at the Lincoln Memorial and we want to show the world that THE DREAM LIVES ON.

I'm going to honor the troops and rally for America!  Not sure where dishonoring MLK's coming from?

These people cannot stoop any lower.  Is anyone here going?  I wish we could.  Please take videos & lots of pictures since it seems as though no media outlet is going to cover this event.

Considering the MO of the Dim'Rats these past 30 years or so has been a consistent, "How can we fool them today?" all they have left is lies, and so it should be no surprise when they bald-faced lie in order to manipulate the uneducated mob.  It's what they do.

About 5 of us are driving up for the rally and a museum fix.  Have had my hotel reserved next to the mall since Feb and making a long weekend out of it  :-)

I believe MLK's neice is one of the speakers, as is Sarah Palin and "two mystery" guests that will "shock and awe" us.  Should be a fun day.

I can't wait to hear who the surprise guests are.  We wish we could be there, but were all the way across the country.  The plane tickets & hotel were too much for us at this time.  I am so sorry to miss this incredible event.

Got a laptop? ya can send us pics when the DUmmies get their heads handed to 'em!

Last I heard, Beck could have as many as 50,000 followers there, and that's a low estimate!

I have a feelin' the lefties are gonna have a very rude awakening!

I'm sure every welfare queen, communist and homosexual from a 100 mile radius will be given $100 and a free bus ride to protest Beck.

Hi,

Darn right we are going.  We head to Washington on Wednesday and will stay in Annapolis.

One of the good things about being retired is you can do stuff like this.

regards,

PS:  I will likely file some type of report from the road as well.

Hi,

The lady in charge of the tea party in our area says they expect it to be the largest single gathering in history, bigger than the Obama inaguaration.

Sure hope so,

WITH BECK.

Suck it, DUmmies.

Oh, I wonder if Ann or Malkin will be one of them. I'd be ecstatic. Have fun, seabelle.

Hey, couldn't they schedule a special Beck program on FNC where all they did was cover the 8/28 rally? I find it very odd that this event will be covered NOWHERE in the media. They covered the gigantic 9/12 Project...

Shock and awe us, lets see who would shock and awe me at the rally ??

Obamas daughters ?

 Rev. Wright and the Queen of England.??

Barney Frank and  Farracon.???

Jessie Jackson and Paris Hilton.?

Lots of strange bed fellows there to imagine.

Unless some video footage is found before 4 PM tomorrow, I'm crossing my fingers in hopes Glenn shows some on his program.
