3/01/2009 | Hatfield McCoy

A hardy band of concerned patriots braved sub zero wind chill Friday morning to give voice to their outrage at the eye watering fiscal madness on display in Washington. The crowd of 60 + assembled at the steps of the Douglas County Courthouse in downtown Omaha. Through the efforts of the event organizer David West, several media outlets were in attendance. In addition, Pete Ricketts, former US Senate candidate and Ameritrade COO toughed out the weather to deliver some remarks to this group of great Americans

A patriot expresses the kind of common sense that has abandoned Washington

More patriots telling the weather and liberal Democrats to kiss their pork rind.

Unfortunately you guys will have to go back to work whereas Obama’s homeless, unemployed criminal hordes just do drugs and eat junk food all day so we are no match for them.

yeah, must be nice to be able to outsource your protests to illegals and unemployed union flunkies.

They do that exact thing here in Las Vegas. The unions hire people to do their protesting for them - literally. They pay them $8-10 an hour to hold up signs outside businesses who refusing to agree to union contract demands. They once protested WalMart because it didn’t offer healthcare coverage to its part-time employees but the media asked the rent-a-protestors if they were getting healthcare coverage from the union who hired them and none of them were. (WalMart actually paid people in their stores MORE than then union did for their protestors).

Sadly, many companies and a number of Federal agencies pay for ‘employees’ who do absolutely nothing BUT union agitating. These are people who do not a single thing for their employer but are paid and otherwise compensated to do whatever the union needs while they are ‘employees’ of the company/agency. So the union gets free employees and doesn’t pay a dime for them. How screwed up is that??

Playboy Magazine thinks that you are a front group for the Koch family and part of a gigantic anti-Obama conspiracy.

You might want to check to see if there is a paycheck involved in any of that....
