Anybody Up For A Million-Taxpayer March on Washington?

I know, I know. The productive people in our society don’t always have time to commit to something like this. They’re busy working, creating, meeting payrolls, planning for the future. But as Charles Krauthammer points out, Obama is now clearly leading the U.S. toward European-style socialism, and I believe that even the chronically “unengaged” (the 20 or 30 percent of voters who don’t know jack about politics, but nonetheless fell for the American-Idol-type hucksterism of Obama’s campaign) didn’t have this in mind. It is better to oppose the “Obamaist Manifesto” and the Democratic pillage of our wealth now rather than later, when the damage may have become irreparable. And don’t get me wrong: the Tea Party protests currently going on around the country are a great idea; but a million people descending on Washington would have greater impact.

Taxpayers of America, unite! You have nothing to lose but your "Change"!

And remember: we can march peacefully on Washington today, OR...


...we may have to sack it tomorrow. Which would you prefer? (Sigh. Yeah, me too. But "peaceful" is probably better).

    Picthforks and torches or signs and flags, I'm ready either way. You let me know if you need help with permits.

    If Obama's cabinet and vetters do not need any steenkin' permits, neither do we.

    Will it be too cold for tar and feathers?

    Well, I'm not productive so I'm always available!:)

    I think that 20 to 30 figure needs to be doubled IMHO.

    I'm with SwampWoman. However, if you get a million-taxpayer march going on Washington, I will try to be there, if I have to drive it and sleep in the back of my Sportage.

    TW: logater (pronounced "low gater"). I dunno, but it somehow fits our current leadership.

    So does this one: hoort

    I volunteer to secure the washrooms at the Brasserie. Someone has to protect the waitresses from fleeing Democrats.

    Meanwhile, the cream of our forces remain in Iraq, so we could probably pull this off...

    TW: aullyz: the analysis of any Obama speech.

    Paco, We up here in the Great White North had our Obama moment in 1967 (or was it 69).

    We had Pierre Elliot Trudeau. A vapid, arrogant ego who had the press and women all wet and googly-eyed. He spent the country into the hole with all his "free money".

    Ugh! I remember Trudeau. Your description is correct in every detail.
