Huge March on Washington planned for October 2, 2010 demanding jobs and changes we voted for! 

Followed by some propaganda to whip up frenzy in the streets.  Sponsored by a coalition of AFL-CIO, NAACP, and La Raza.  Based in San Francisco.

After 5 minutes, Hannah Bell says K&R.  After 50 minutes, there's this:

43. Interest? Yes. Ability? No. 
 I can't afford to go anywhere, let alone 2700+ miles to the other side of the nation.

15. I don't know. There isn't enough information on that website to 
 make a decision like that. Just a form for giving out your personal information and not much else. I'd have to see a list of the organization's directors, some sort of mission statement, etc.

Sounds like a good idea, but it's sort of amateur hour on that website. That doesn't bode well for its success, I think.

21. There doesn't seem to be anything on that site after 2008. 
 I'm sorry, but this has the feel of a "Hey, Kids! Let's Put on a Show" sort of deal.

52. They really need to be more specific, or its just multi-racial teabaggers
 You can't very well be anti-corporations and pro-jobs, when the biggest employers are corporations. Or you can be, but its a little incoherent and unlikely to lead to anything.

You can't really talk about declining living standards and how we have a corporate-driven culture of overconsumption and make sense.

You can't really talk about fixing education without talking about why we can't fix education

72. and if the demand for jobs succeeds and a capitalist corp hires you
 ...are you still anti-capitalist? I suppose non-profits add jobs now and then, but its hard to see how being anti-capitalist leads to more jobs for Americans...

78. 40+ years an anticapitalist............
 The only time I've EVER worked for a big corporation, it was a union heavy industry job and I TURNED down potential management positions to STAY union...... blah blah blah...  Mom and Pop type outfits. I've turned down every corporate job I've ever been offered. I'll work for somebody who actually works for the company s/he owns, but I'd have to be close to starving before I'd work for capital based businesses.
  Psssst, little socialist.  Here's a secret from a Mom&Pop owner.  They are based on capital.  I had to haul out a checkbook and write some checks of capital I'd saved, to buy stuff to start up with.  Equipment, inventory, supplies and junk.  The purpose is to make more capital.

They could potentially make money whining like 2-year olds, but Queef Überdork and Rachel Madcow would have to vacate their positions for two more DUmmies to step in.

I'm sure they'd be welcome to join the Glenn Beck march, or the various Tea Party marches on Labor Day. :-)

You got the change you voted for... there are no jobs left.

Caveat emptor.

They swore they were goin' to add 3 million jobs back in January 2009. Latest tally is we've lost 2 additional million since then and lord Zero has added a whoppin' 750,000 according to the latest figures for a stinkin' 2 and quarter million net loss!!!!!!!!1

And now they're talkin' another "stimulus" package? Rove in for rush this morning brought up the fact that the way they cooked the books with the last stimulus was they expected to get a dollar and a half for every stimulus dollar the gubmint paid out! Ya really have to be living on Uranus in order to ever think you can get more money than ya pay in! Most economist tried to tell them that way back when they read their "plan". The truth is, every dollar the gubmint puts in we get about 80 cents back! The other 20 cents is added to the deficit.

Only an idiot like Bummer and BiteMe would continue to spew this nonsense!

Oh, and the CBO also told them the original 782 billion they stole from us is really 82 billion short of the real numbers, yet they refuse to update it on Recovery.org! Guess who's job it is to be watchdog over this pile o' cash? None other than Joe BiteMe and the VP office! Talk about the fox guardin' the henhouse!

You can view all this nonsense at Rove the Magnificent @ VRWC headquarters

May have to try the link later as having hosted Rush's show, he's gettin' more traffic than his server can handle. Happens all the time when Rush listeners get to linking to a website!

I'm the guy your mother warned you about!

Did you happen to see the article on the WSJ site where there's a movement, started by Doug Wilder, to swap our BiteMe with HilLIARy, and put BiteMe in the S of S job, for the 2012 elections?  The Dems need a scapegoat, and BiteMe is the root of the problem with his gaffes and You Tube-worthy moments, from what the former governor of Virginia is proposing.  Imagine BiteMe as the S of S . . . ! :o

Liberals: too lazy to do their own complaining in person.


I say they should go for it. One month before the US electorate gets to rate the Obama/Pelosi/Reid performance the unions should hold massive rallies demanding more government pay-outs for the politically favored.

Please.
