So Freepers are planning to march on the Senate Monday...
This should be hilarious. All 6 of them.
How many unneeded port-a-johns will they rent for their non-existant crowd this time?

So you don't have to go there - an excerpt:

"The stakes are the fate of this Nation. A Marxist coup d'etat is taking place with a $1 trillion dollars of debt that will bankrupt this country and sentence future generations of Americans to being slaves of government and debt.

Again, you don't need a leader, an organizer or a permit. You don't need fancy protest signs, but bring a sign if you wish. You don't need talking points or a big name speaker. You know the issues. Speak out for yourself."
---

I also wonder - will they bring their signs advocating secession or will they go back to wrapping their ignorance in phony patriotism again?

1. Oh the hypocrisy, this should be good........
"$1 trillion dollars of debt that will bankrupt this country and sentence future generations of Americans to being slaves of government and debt."

You mean like the debt Bush ran up while he was in office? Freepers are fucking dumb, I doubt any of them will go to that march, they are all talk and no action.

6. another thing they will try to blame Democrats for
I go the freeper board every time I need a good laugh. I actually tried to join their board before the election to argue issues from a true Libertarian POV. But it'a late. I'll have to tell that story another time.

2. Do you realize ...

... that by talking about them here, you give them more validation that then would ever receive otherwise?

3. Is it stupidity or hypocrisy? It's so hard to tell.
Hey, freaks! Your torture president emptied the cookie jar into his cronies' pockets and you and your kids will be paying his tab for the next fifty years minimum. And, he crashed the economy while he was at it. You are already slaves. If you're lucky, Obama will find a way to pull your asses out of the fire.

7. I've never seen a GOP protest with even a dozen people unless it involved dead babies
Edited on Sun Feb-08-09 04:18 AM by Hippo_Tron
The right to lifers turn out a crowd but it's not for Republican causes it's for their single issue and it's the churches that turn them out.

The fact of the matter is that the right wing has too much respect for authority to ever get serious about protesting. Even if they don't like the people in power, they don't like the idea of protesting them either.

8. In its own way, it's brilliant
Monday is supposed to be beautiful day in Washington. Chances are, people sick of being cooped up all winter will be out walking around more at lunch time. Their description (no leader, no organizer, no signs, permits, etc) leaves them free to claim all the people milling about on their own, completely unaware of any freeperish goings on, are part of their demonstration.

:rofl:

13. I'll cut 'em some slack. Marching with your head up your ass demonstrates athletic ability.
chances are they will just spin in circles.
