So here's how Faux news is going to overbloat this Beck/Palin scam this weekend

I've been reading about it which I have no clue why because my stomach feels pretty queazy as it is. But this thing is going to be so overbloated out the ying yang which Faux will then tout not only as a large turn out for Beck/Palin Scammapalooza but whoa look at this - MINORITES!!!! Woohoo it was attended by minorities!

But some of the scams you can expect to see showed ad nauseum by Faux after the event include:

• This event is suppose to be to honor veterans. So there is a chance you might get a few veterans show up that aren't as politically astute as we are not realizing that it's really just a lure to hopefully gather more minorities to their event.
  
• I've read from several sources that they request no signs be brought to this event. They want to make it about 'honoring our soldiers' which means no signs and it'll harder to distinguish the dingbats from other folks who happen to be in DC including...
  
• Other march honoring MLK that is lead by MLK's son and Al Sharpton. That will have a strong turn out of minorities so all Faux News has to do is get a few minutes clips of people at that Rally and lump them in with Beck/Palin's rally to make it look 'Diverisified'. Remember this is the network that has labeled every corrupt republican as a democrat including Mark Foley, Larry Craig, Ted Stevens and Mark Sanford. They even used footage of Sherry Sherrod saying that was Maxine Waters. So I really don't hold it past Faux News to do some footage of the other march in DC and try to lump those photos in with theirs.
  

Personally if I were to road trip to DC for the MLK/Sharpton rally I would hand out signs saying "I'm not with that mockery of a rally by Beck & Palin.

And remember if Faux News pulls this off then CNN & MSNBC (the morning half) will chime in on it solidify the story that Faux invented.

1. Saudi-owned Fox News (R) will make a mosquery of the event

to be sure

2. This Sunday

would be a great day to boycott all the morning talk shows.

3. The "no signs" rule

Won't prevent T-shirts with messages or buttons.

4. True but he wants to make this look like minorities were there at his event

So if those minorities have so signs or anything else on, then Faux can use that footage for their event.

5. Very clever

;-) And spot on.

6. I'm heading out of town this weekend

With the overload of teajihadists, Back and Palin in town, I feel that becoming dumber via osmosis is a real risk. I'm heading out to go drink wine and enjoy the valley this weekend.

7. Beg to differ on this point:

"I really don't hold it past Faux News to do some footage of the other march in DC and try to lump those photos in with theirs."

Faux News can't glean the "other marchers" into their footage b/c I'm certain THEY will be carrying signs with anti-Beck and anti-Palin and anti-Tea Party messages. Too many signs to say they're part of Beck's "rally" not to mention the contradictory messages. Having signs alone signals they aren't part of Beck's group.

8. That's what I hope

If we carry signs then they can't get away with this. But trust me if Faux News can find a 10 second footage of 5-10 minorities standing around in DC - they'll use it.

9. Local News Was Horrible but zinged

During the big teahadist rally this past spring on The Mall in D.C. local news was dedicating a lot of time to covering it. I happened to be playing kickball down on The Mall the day it happened. I happened to walk by a little stand where a couple of African-Americans were selling those don't tread on me flags while a news crew asked them "Are you guys here supporting the rally?" The dude said "Helllllll No! We're just here selling them stupid flags." They were the only minorities near the rally.
