BREAKING NEWS FROM WORCESTER, MASSACHUSETS RALLY
AntiMullah ^ | 01/17/10 | Alan Peters /RALLY SITE

Posted on 01/17/2010 12:53:58 PM PST by FARS

Phone call from the Scott Brown rally, outside Mechanics Hall:

Up to 5,000 supporters of Scott Brown have gathered vociferously outside the hall, loud enough at times to drown out the phone conversation. Shouting slogans, they have blocked all four street lanes for about half a block around the rally point.

Only a few at a time were allowed into the hall for about 15 minutes and they have just announced that the hall is filled to capacity as are two overflow areas, one of which is Lexington Hall in the Crown Plaza hotel.

At least 2,000 people are still in the street outside the hall with no room for them to go. They are now marching toward another with a least 1,000 in front of Race Bannon who was one of the first to turn toward the new location and has that many behind him.

Whether sound and video will be piped to the oveflow areas was still unclear, though simulcast has been started at the Lexingtron Hall, whose 400 or so capacity has wall to wall, flesh to flesh packed attendance of at least 1,000 very enthusiastic supporters.

The rally includes visitors from New Jersey and parts of Illinois among other places.

It has been a long time since I’ve walked the Trail. I first walked it with my Mom and Dad when I was 7 or 8 years old. I guess I have walked it 5 or 6 times. It’s time to walk it again, this time, with my grandchildren.

Have the leading Rats in Massachusetts called out the riot police yet?

RE: “Obama. Problem is Bush! We have had on year to make up for 8!”

*************

Oh yeah yeah yeah == Bush’s fault, as always. Bush tried to put a lid on all the lending to those who could not repay but his protests fell on deaf ears. Bush had to ‘govern’ with that Dem controlled congress for his second term — impossible task.

Did GWB spend too much? Sure — but compare and contrast to Zero! NO comparison!

People are finally waking up to the truth about this ‘administration.’ I hope we get very lucky Tuesday in MA but as stated on some news shows the other night, it’ll be so close as not to matter much — either way the reps will feel hard pressed to continue ramming Zerocare down the throats of constituents they know don’t want it.

And there will be so much attention paid to SEIU, Acorn and others who will try to steal the votes that it doesn’t matter what the upshot it. Obama is toast — I don’t see him recovering from any of what’s transpired this past year. I doubt he lasts the full four years as TOTUS.

Scott Brown has entered Lexington hall one minute ago to address supporters!

SIDEBAR: Iran under unofficial martial law with Bassiji, riot police, revolutionary guards and equipment in the streets in a heavy presence preventing any demonstrations. Moussavi and Karoubi pulling back their anti-regime stance

After he just asked the man to help with Haitian relief. What an unbelievably classless jerk.

Is the speech streamed on audio from a web source?

I’m with you on that one. Also, there is no perfect anyone. And conservatives, like me, we also have some things that run right down the middle between the two. It’s bad to be way too far left, and can be just as bad to be way too far to the right.

I’m sure hoping that Scott Brown wins. This is so exciting, but the suspense is killing me. And I’m in a different state.

I believe the riot police are voting for Brown. :)

He said the hall held 3,000 was not nearly full. Estimated between 2,000-2500 in attendance. Subtract the SEIU they brought in from out of state, paid democratic operatives/personnel, the Kennedy clan.....He said the hall held 3,000 was not nearly full.

Bama-Lama couldn't fill a 3,000 person capacity hall in Massachusetts?

The times, they are a-changin'.

I just sent this email to FOX:
Subject: What the HECK were you guys thinking?!

One expects you to cover the Obama rally...he's the president.

But you didn't even send a camera crew to the Brown rally?! Not even a correspondent?! Here you have the hottest, most energetic, fastest moving campaign in recent memory....and you don't even cover it?!

You'd better explain to your audience. Because the outrage I'm reading on websites is just beginning. People are furious at your lack of coverage. Not to mention, when I came to your website looking for your email, you have THREE headlines about Obama, NONE about Scott Brown (only the hottest political story of the day!). What were you thinking?!

Can you tell I'm mad?!

There’s only one liberal play-book ploy left for Martha:

Tomorrow she will claim she’s getting death threats!

Liberals think that’s their magic ticket to victory. LOL!

Moussavi and Karoubi pulling back their anti-regime stance

One example:

Mousavi concedes to regime: Scientist was killed by Iran's enemies.

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report

January 17, 2010, 11:48 AM (GMT+02:00)

In a gesture of reconciliation toward the regime, Iranian opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi conceded Sunday, Jan. 17, that the Iranian scientist Mehsoud Ali-Mohammadi murdered outside his home last Monday was the victim of Iran's "enemies," namely the US and Israel.

Re: Post 100

Just goes to show that even after a year in office "BUSH DERANGEMENT SYNDROME" has not loosened its grip on the lunatic fringe, rabid, foaming at the mouth, whacko left wing!
