Riot cops even showed up at the Lincoln Memorial to fend off dangerous interlopers like Sarah Palin:
Oh. And they needed armored vehicles to make their point.
Now I ask you to step back and consider the priorities of President Obama:
Immigration rally allowed on Mall despite shutdown
A week after World War II veterans struggled to gain access to a memorial on the National Mall due to the government's partial shutdown, thousands of people pushing for a new immigration law have been cleared by the government to proceed with a concert and rally Tuesday on the Mall.
The march, dubbed the "Camino Americano", or "American Road," is hosted by groups including the Service Employees International Union and Casa de Maryland...
..."It's bad enough watching these marches when we watch illegal aliens breaking our laws. Now they're being given free range on these public parks while we've seen the greatest generation military vets being turned away from their sacred memorials," said Bob Dane, a spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform, a group that opposes proposals in Congress to legalize the nation's undocumented immigrants. "It's offensive and it shows where their loyalties lie."
This administration appears to be something unique in American history. It continually flouts Constitutional limits, rewrites individual laws, defies American traditions, and undermines Judeo-Christian morals.
We have never seen its likes before and it could well take a miracle for the civil society to survive it.

ReplyDeleteIt's fairly easy to see where Obama's interests lie, that is if you aren't one of the millions of totally disconnected people in this nation. We need to start smacking our neighbors in the face to wake them up.
ReplyDeleteIf this latest display of authoritarianism isn't enough to make you want to take matters into your own hands, what will?
Sad days in America.
ReplyDeleteThe MEDIA Obama are an embarrassment to this Country -
ReplyDelete-
He has broken existing laws and laws even he has "ordered"!
the riot police have the same kind of bicycle helmets as I do.
ReplyDeleteObama is a real turd and is destroying this country.
ReplyDeleteWhat is particularly idiotic is the idea that patriotic monuments needed to be "protected" from abuse by protesters involved with the "Million Veterans March". What did the Democratic leadership think? That veterans would deface or defiler the Lincoln Memorial? Are they perhaps projecting their own hatred of American ideals onto true Patriots?
ReplyDeleteI can perhaps see why riot troops might be called out to prevent a mob from storming the White House - maybe some of us wouldn't want to see its occupants swinging from lampposts, would we?????
But - the Obama regime can rest easy that patriotic protesters are no threat to Washington's monuments and memorials. Unless they consider mowing the grass to be an affront to the integrity of a memorial.

Protestors involved in the march would obviously be anti-war protestors who would not be acting with the veterans, but against them. They tend to turn up at military memorial events around the world. Over here, we have had attacks on our memorials on the eve's of memorial days & so on. This does not seem that hard to work out. The immigrant march was mentioned to be staged at the Mall. I am not sure what that is but it does sound like it might be on private property, which would explain why one of these events is going on & not the other. Ironically, it is the right wing that opposes public ownership of anything much & would probably like to see every public park, memorial & utility sold off. People in the US are so misled by right wing stunts, lies & propaganda.
ReplyDeleteBtw it seems that a lot of ppl have forgotten that this shutdown has been planned by the GOP since at least as far back as 2010. It is kind of pathetic really, to carry on about the details of how the government handles the situation, whilst over looking who has needlessly created. US debt has risen around 48% under Obama, who has had to deal with the GFC, service the debts of previous administrations, maintain Bush's wars & then, attempt to fund social services & programmes long neglected by the previous administration.By comparison, Bush faced none the same financial adversity but still cut back on public spending & told the country it had to tighten its belt for war, whilst increasing debt by around 40%. It might be pertinent to note that 100% of all income taxes paid in the US go directly to the Federal Reserve. Not a single cent goes toward funding the current government. Obama might be unprecedented there but certainly not elsewhere around the world. The country needs to make massive changes in the way it does things because clearly, what it does now isn't working. The US owes more than it is worth. Foreign interests such the PRC own huge chunks of the economy. Whilst it is thought of as the most powerful nation, the truth has become huge potential liability for the rest of the world; which is now looking at ways of doing business that less include the US. U should think about that.
