The unemployed need to march...on state capitals, on DC, in counties.
 We could turn people out against the war and every other thing under the sun, but can't we pool our money as we did during the election and get people to places where we can make a public and very loud demand of our legislators to look at the people and not the corporate heads? We need to march. If we could organize those campaigns this summer, we can gin up our efforts and quit waiting for that bunch of jackals in DC to play their conniving games.

This is where the rubber meets the road and where the strength of the coalition formed this election season will be tested.

1. Maybe Obama needs to ask all of us to do just that
Because we can't do anything unless Teh MessiahTM says so.

 Inundate them.

And economic justice march on D.C., with millions of Americans from all walks-of-life converging on the Capital and K-Street.

"Economic Justice" would be leaving the fruit of the sweat of the working man's brow to the man that earned it in the first place, rather than having the philanthropists with guns from the federal gummint confiscate it, and give it out to the most shiftless, lazy, worthless wastes of skin ever to bear the title of human being.  "Economic Justice" would be letting the lazy, worthless dregs of humanity suffer the natural consequences of their choices - starvation.

But somehow, I don't think that's the definition of "Economic Justice" you were "thinking" of, now was it DUmmy?

This spells out what is wrong with liberals in general and the Little Goon specifically.  They want to march on this and march on that, but since they cannot even blow their noses without government instructions, the marches will never happen.

I think it would be funnier than the few thousand man march -- which, if you will recall was pretty hilarious.

But one question: how are the people not from DC going to get there?  Most of them blew their travel budget watching the new fuhrer get installed.

And maybe they should use their energy LOOKING FOR WORK instead of posting on hate sites or marching on anything.

You could put a thousand monkeys in a room with a thousand typewriters and it would take over a thousand years to come up with that idea.

Well done DUmbass.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I'm unemployed right now and I say let them go for it. While they're marching on wherever, I'll be out looking for a job. Should be much easier with less people to compete with.

I wonder how many of them have ever heard about the Bonus Army.

It didn't work out too well for them when they marched on Washington.
