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

[theDoctorisIn]

There is no Conservative President right now.

Organizing for America is Obama's campaign organization - it endorsed the One Nation Rally. So, Where Is Obama?

Obama isn't campaigning, he already won. Organizing for America is part of the DNC.

Do you have any proof that they "endorsed" the rally?

I can't find a crowd estimate anywhere. From the pictures, It doesn't look much bigger than Beck's event.. But I got to listen to some of the speeches.. Wonderful! One Nation, working together, to keep this country on the right track! Also, there were One Nation events all over the place, for those that couldn't go to DC.. So with all of those numbers combined, I think we gave the Beckster a run for his money.

Here's some of the best pictures I've found:

Fired up.. Ready to go!

Yes REAL AMERICANS

Peacefully demonstrating...

Are you suggesting the people at 8/28 were not real Americans, and were not peaceful?

That is why I Asked him bud. you do know what a question mark is right.

Funny because they claim it is completely non partisan and they are rallying for among other things. JOBS!

JOBS!

Yea,

In THIS country.

Not China.

Yes, that's why your asswipe pissed away money on GM and they are opening a brand new 800 million dollar plant in Mexico. You are indeed a MORON>\ Oh and your asswipe is for amnesty and open borders too all of which cost Americans jobs. How many Americans do you know would work for $23.00 an hour?

Twenty three dollars an hour? That's almost 48 thousand a year.

They're asking for yobs!? OH PAHLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE! They wouldn't know what a "job" was if it hit them in the face. They're asking for HANDOUTS! They truly believe that a job=a handout!

Really? Here's the website for the rally.

I don't see anything about "handouts".

Core Policy Principles | One Nation Working Together

Working together for the creation, protection, and advancement of good jobs
Create new jobs in every sector, so that everyone in our country who wants to work can find a job. There should be a job in America for everyone who wants to work.

Awesome!! How are you going to do it?

Provide immediate relief for those who are currently unemployed

HANDOUTS... More debt. no new jobs...

Extend the federal unemployment program, COBRA, mortgage assistance, and other targeted initiatives helping those who are currently without a job

HANDOUTS...More debt, no new jobs...

Target help for populations and communities in the greatest need, including youth summer jobs and training initiatives

"Help"? HANDOUTS ...More debt, prey it makes jobs...

Provide immediate action to stimulate job growth and retention; and consumer demand

"Immediate action"? More spending, more debt... Or are you advocating tax cuts for consumers and job creators? ...doubt it.

Provide aid to states and cities—including direct job creation at local levels—especially in education, health care, social services and first responder workforces

HANDOUTS...More debt...

Increase the ability of small businesses to obtain assistance and support, including short term loans, grants and other forms of assistance

HANDOUTS...More debt...

Fund infrastructure investment that spurs higher economic growth, clean energy enterprises, and green jobs

More debt...

Provide a fair chance for every worker in our country to succeed and advance in the workplace

Until you get too successful ... than we will take it back.

Everyone who works in America should have the right to join with their co-workers to have a voice on the job

More unions!!! Yippee!!!! ...good luck with that one. lol

Pay all workers a living family wage
Increase and index the minimum wage

Dictate hourly rates and salaries, regardless if a small business can afford it. nice plan.... lol

Close the race-, gender-, and all other unjust pay gaps
End all forms of workplace discrimination and expand anti-discrimination law to be inclusive of everyone
Protect, honor, fully apply, and expand equal opportunity and diverse business inclusion practices

Aren't there already laws that prohibit workplace discrimination? ...please elaborate.

Create employment pathways and training opportunities for workers who want to advance their careers

It's called getting a quality education and not getting knocked up at 16, dropping out of school and sucking Uncle Sam's tit.

Make every job a safe job

ehem.... OSHA?

Provide paid sick days and paid family leave for all workers

Once again ... regardless if small business can afford it.

And your suggestions begin, "where"?

Are you suggesting we just "give up"?

Are you suggesting that Obama is a serial killer?


Don't forget, I put a "question mark" there....

Uh oh...

Organizers claimed they had as many participants as Beck's rally. But Saturday's crowds were less dense and didn't reach as far to the edges as they did during Beck's rally. The National Park Service stopped providing official crowd estimates in the 1990s.

Nah, just a little realism would be nice.

This event was all about jobs, equality, justice, and education. The crowd was so diverse.. There was religious groups, athiests, anti-war groups, unions, everyday midde class folks, blacks, whites, hispanics, asians, and every other color/nationality. Most diverse rally I've seen in a long time!
We ain't givin' the keys back!

Wait till the Stewart/Colbert rally.. Then you'll be amazed.

I don't care who rallies and I champion our unalienable right to assembly, to promote, to protest, to free speech. It is frustrating, however, when an event like Restore Honor is ridiculed and negatively misrepresented by the media and even some on USMB, while an event officially involving practically every leftwing looney group in the nation will be described in glowing terms and probably positively misrepresented in the media and even some on USMB.

But oh well. It is what it is. And wishes aren't horses.

I'm hearing they're really into it, peace, love, all that. No teapartiers.

I kind of wish I'd gone.

Misrepresented on USMB? Really?

I don't necessarily agree with you that the media response was that different between the two rallies.

But I certainly agree that people have a right to rally about whatever they like.

Sponsored by groups including the American Communist Party no less

For the last 10 years, Republicans have supported Communism and Socialism more than any other political party.

They gave tax breaks to companies who moved to China. They gave subsidies to companies teaching Chinese to learn how to do American jobs. What has this done to the American and Chinese economies? Think it through.

It's not like it's a secret. They want to do that now.
