Massive Obama-Backed “One Nation” Rally...

[California Girl]

It astounds me that anyone still thinks Either party is the answer.

Anyone who is a political elitist is an enemy of America.

Or with an education. We want dumb!

Just as an aside, rdrool, you are aware, I hope, that the vast majority of those who led the sheep into this mess were University educated, right?

 

[bigrebnc1775]

You guys are still foaming at the mouth over the estimates?

There were at least as many there as Becks and both of the crowds were average estimates of crowds Obama gathered when he was running for president.

I believe what's freaking you out is knowing there are progressives out there still ready to vote for Democrats. You just KNOW Rs are gonna screw up. Don't worry, I'm right there with ya, I know they're gonna screw up too.

I am going to make this short and simple
1. That rally did not have half the numbers as did Becks Rally
2. Those in unions had to be there by order of their union boss.

Yeah, we can see these are gonna be your talking points for the day. Truth is you have no idea what you're talking about.

Well, if you consider the truth as a talking point, thank you I will accept that as a wining argument.

 

[bigrebnc1775]

Sarah you said I didn't know what I was talking about?
Lets take a look at the facts.
Local 237 Teamster President Forcing Union Members to Attend One Nation Rally
Local 237 Teamster President Forcing Union Members to Attend One Nation Rally Nice Deb

How could they promise that many poeople without forcing or paying them to be there?
To clarify, the AFL-CIO's 100,000 estimate refers to their federation and doesn't include the SEIU's promised 75,000 member turnout. So that puts the estimated turnout of union members at 175,000 or more.
The Plum Line - Will tomorrow's One Nation rally show enthusiasm gap closing? Will media care?

And as usual, you took that out of context ball and ran with it both with my comment and the video. I'm not even bothering with you anymore, trolls such as yourself needs to just continue trolling until everyone just gets tired of your bullshit.

Begone wingnut.

What are you missing here sarah? oh yeah it's that little thing called common sense. You said I did not know what I was talking about I just gave you a link where one union boss said that his members had to be there. Are you to dense to think that other union bosses did not tell there members the samething?

OH yell one more thing any time unions have a meeting or rally they must be their. It's part of their union by-laws. Its a union for gosh sakes unions come together.

 

[Rozman]

Noting that they began planning their rally in April, organizers said they were not responding to a march organized by Glenn Beck, which drew enormous crowds to the front of the Lincoln Memorial on Aug. 28. But they acknowledged that their hope was to draw an even larger crowd to Saturday’s event.

Significant areas of the National Mall that had been filled during Mr. Beck’s rally were empty. In a broadcast on Thursday, Mr. Beck criticized the liberals’ march, saying his supporters paid their own way to drive to Washington, while labor unions chartered hundreds of buses to ferry demonstrators to Saturday’s rally.

From an article in the NY Times this morning..........

 

[Cal]

There's no way there were more people at this rally compared to Becks rally.

Size doesn't matter, but I would guess there were just as many there as were @ the Becksters. According to satelite pictures, there were more.. But I've yet to see them, so based on the ground photos on the news, the size looks about the same to me.

I would even grant you today's crowd looks a little bigger, but 30 Times more?

now that is just insanity.

Not 30 times bigger - 30 times more people who brought themselves, than the Beck rally. They can be the same size and that be possible.

 

[Meister]

Can we all agree that both rally's were a success?

Care to explain about the free bus rides and free food provided to get the protesters there? Your version is full of BULLSHIT.

Depends on the message and motivation of the two rally's

One Trillion Attend One Nation Rally
by Connie Hair

10/02/2010


SNIP:
A crowd of about one trillion people attended the hard-left progressive One Nation rally on the Mall Saturday in Washington, D.C. Leave aside for a moment that there are around seven billion people inhabiting the entire planet, attendees came from as far away as Alpha Centauri and Uranus to attend the rally in support of Barack Obama and his big government agenda.

All of these people want free health care (they already got the free lunch and T-shirt when they were bused in).

In all seriousness, if you weren't watching MSNBC's kind coverage (their drop-in shots were few and far between due to low turnout), you'd find there were actually a few thousand people surrounding the Reflecting Pool at the Lincoln Memorial on the Mall, herded into and held in that limited area by pre-set fencing as seen here. (h/t Amanda Carpenter)

The One Nation rally had empty streets and by all reports parking spaces aplenty. As also shown in the fenced-in photo linked above, the side overflow areas lacked any crowds whatsoever. Photo after photo from Twitter throughout the day showed gaping holes in the "crowd" shots.

The One Nation event attendance was dwarfed in size by the Restoring Honor rally in August hosted by radio talk show and Fox News host Glenn Beck which boasted a crowd in the hundreds of thousands. Check out the footage from HUMAN EVENTS of the overflow fields and crowds here and compare.

A photo gallery of One Nation "crowd" shots is available here from the Washington Post.

Speaker after speaker at the event demanded more government giveaways and wealth re-distribution from their leaders. And gay rights. And amnesty. And free education throughout everyone's lifetime from cradle to great grandma getting her Ph.D.

Self-proclaimed Communist and former Obama Green Jobs Czar Van Jones apologized for the crowd size saying more people would have attended but times are tough. "The earth is overheating, the earth is heating up," Jones proclaimed amid tirades about wind farms and recycling.

One "collegian" speaker called for a "re-spurring of community organizing." That's exactly what America needs -- more community organizers.

Al Sharpton stepped up to let folks know that "America is not one color, and not one gender."

Harry Belafonte, friend and supporter of Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez, showed up to call the Tea Parties "evil."

"We will not be divided and turned against one another," Jessie Jackson declared from the stage then went on to demand more race-based job opportunities.

Favorite signs included: "Tax the Rich, Socialist Party U.S.A." and "Jobs for Justice"

Best tweet of the day: @radishthegreat: If they put as much effort into working as they do demanding other people’s money, they could be the “rich” they hate

The event organizers included such noble American groups as the Communist Party U.S.A., Democratic Socialists of America and the International Socialist Organization.

Hey williow I think the author of that news stroy was making funny of the rally supports.

 

[Foxfyre]

Some will inflate the "One Nation" rally numbers just as they deflated the "Restore Honor" rally numbers. Those who see it as some kind of sporting event or competition do that.

But the fact is the "Restore Honor" rally attracted people who are sick of the direction this country has been going. There were no representatives of the 'religious right' or any right wing extremist groups there. The crowd of hundreds of thousands (despite the attempt by one news organization to downplay that--all the others concede the hundreds of thousands) consisted of moms and dads and shop keepers and salespeople and carpenters and truck drivers and all sorts of folks who just get up every day, go to work, try to keep a roof over their heads, and take care of and educate their kids. And they came together to show unity for a return to the basic values of thrift, responsibility, accountability, integrity, and similar ideals that have made this the great nation that it is. There was no bashing of anybody at that rally, but rather a 'prayer' for all that is good.

The "One Nation" rally was thick with signs and slogans and T-shirts identifying this group or that group. And those groups included just about every leftwing wacko and militant group that we know of: communists, socialists, protest groups, promote this groups, fight against that group etc. etc. etc. almost all demanding that government provide them what they want no matter who it has to take it from. I imagine there was very little 'praying' going on but there were a lot of demands and a lot of ridicule, bashing and blaming going on.

It is up to each individual conscience to decide to which group one belongs.

 

[thereisnospoon]

Real America is rising up.

Rising up?
Against what?
Obama called for the rally, didn't he?
I saw signs that said, "We march for Hope, not Hate"

What are these people's issues?
What more do they want that isn;t already given to them?

If anyone did any "giving", it was the Republicans giving corporations subsidies so they could send American jobs to China.

It's not just the Democrats hurting. In fact, Republicans have probably hurt their base much, much more than the damage they did to the Democrats.

Then if you would .please explain how it is the democrats went from rising stars to losing the House and Senate in just two years.

 

[thereisnospoon]

Jobs....Gotta love it. Obama and his regime are the people who are trying to cut off the heads of the same people who build and invest and create jobs...

Can we all agree that both rally's were a success?

Depends on the message and motivation of the two rally's

That would depend on which party a person is affiliated with, wouldn't it?
Each are claiming a big success....and looks to be true to me.

Well I would have to say that since the groups from yesterdays rally are the professionals at this kind of venue and by looking at the final results of the rally they failed.
