Default CURRENT EVENTS.....

No, I din't go but heard all the Fox reports tonight and read the report from MSNBC (yes!) where I took these 2 great lines below!
I wonder how many were there? At first I heard 60,000 but then later heard 200,000. Obama was "out of town"....he's back in the business of campaigning and I guess he had a real show in MN yesterday...supposedly very favorable to him and a packed stadium. mac


Throngs of people waved U.S. flags and held signs reading "Go Green Recycle Congress" and "Obama Bin Lyin.'"


One woman held a sign with images of Martin Luther King Jr. and Obama, with the words printed alongside: "He had a dream, we got a nightmare."

A thought about the President of our country....All us Veterans know about the prescribed uniform and wearing the uniform of our country with pride...I have noted how frequently President Obama goes without a tie and jacket...sleeves rolled up on the forearm....Personally, I don't like it and I think of the troops over in the theater of operations....no short britches or short sleeve jackets for them...what's those summer temps over there in the 'SANDBOX'....I've heard and read that sometimes near 130 degrees...those are life threatening conditions and the human body needs relief from those. That's my slant on things...what say you Fellow American and veterans....I'm sure, if we were invited to go to the White House for a flap with the President, one of his 'flunkies' would remind us all, male or female, to dress properly. SHAPE UP OR SHIP OUT, MR. PRESIDENT!!!!! Chief

If you couldn't attend, click here for the CSpan video of the entire 9/12 rally in DC. In addition, there were rallys in 45 states as well, many with several thousands of participants.
