Demonstrators and Protestors by the thousands

Iranian Americans of all stripes, political views and agendas rallied against President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad near the UN yesterday. Remarkably, Barney Frank, Nancy Pelosi and Jimmy Carter have not called them racists and Nazis for using free speech and assembly.

But then, they weren't protesting taxes, health care and cap and trade, either.

I heard they were boarding up windows and closing businesses around the place in Pittsburgh. Did that happen when the tea bag brigade marched on DC?

Murray sez:
The "tea Baggers" ,as you call them,were not rowdy, out of control nor did they show any signs of possible violence. The march was peaceful with singing and chanting U.S.A., U.S.A..They consisted of grass-root people from all over the country. You know, like you and your neighbors!

I noticed a photo of riot police in Pittsburgh to control the protesters. I don't think that happened on 9/12. So why do you suppose the press was so negative about you guys? They even lost their ability to count! They aren't calling the Pittsburgh rioters names. Do you suppose its because a lot of the leftists are protesting the G-20 and the media and congress don't want to offend them?

Murray sez:
The protest at Pittsburgh was a one day deal that Pelosi and Barney probably knew would die out on it's own so therefore no need to speak out. The grass-root Marchers are much different. They represent a rising tide of protest over our federal government's out of control reckless spending and dominance that promises to continue. After all, while the March on Washington was going on there were hundreds of other "parties" going on all over the country. It isn't just the press that's ignored them but the entire media except Fox News. My only explanation for that is associated with conspiracy and that makes it real ugly.

Contributions are down for Democrats and up for Republicans. And although we might have to hold our noses because Republicans have been such a disappointment, it's the only hope we have to get back some seats in Congress to stop Obama.
