| The honk support also came down on our side, about 60% to 40% or so. Clearly, I am an interested party in all this and I could just be making this up too, so discount the honks, but their own pictures put the lie to their other claims.
More telling still. MoveOn demonstrators chanted our demands - Health Care Now. Tea Party chanted..... Nothing. Have some sympathy for them. Who can put their heart into a chant like: "We Want NO Health Care for Everyone" or "Just Say No to Fair and Equitable Health Care!"
Even more strange. There was a guy , actually he was holding their banner , dressed in full black burka. I mean full face veil, full body robes, etc.
Here is the garb I am referring to:
In fairness, he was showing parts of his hairy shins, that is how I could tell his gender.
Now, to drive home how loony this was. It was 95 degrees at noon and he was standing directly in the sun.
If this is what they call "Blowing Away MoveOn, they are clearly reality challenged beyond anything I could have believed possible.
How desperate are the right wingers to gin up these angry sloganeers into a "movement"? If you check the memorandum page, you will find coverage of this non-event by several national conservative bloggers.
Had I not been present personally, I would not have know how lame their claims were . |
