I feel she is an intelligent woman, but just doesn’t see the world from an American point of view.

I think more like 650,000. The crowd stretches underneath the trees to the right of the photo.

A large portion of the media elite is terrified of Christianity, for some reason.

Simple, progressivism relies on an individual being selfish and short term. It is all about what can I get now. It never considers the damage done to others or to the whole. While they normally attribute selfishness to capitalists, at least the self interest of the capitalist is long term and considers the whole. A capitalist doesn't screw a customer because they want to sell to that customer again in the future. They invest in the present with the thought of profits in the future. The capitalists concern for the other is of course reflective self interest, since a prosperous man is a better customer than an impoverished man. And their long term measured in a decade or two, but still a stark contrast to the "I want it all and I want it now" attitude of the progressive.

Christianity is the polar opposite of progressivism. It stresses considerations for the other rather than selfishness. It does not deny self interest as many have claimed, it simply asks that you treat others as you would wish to be treated. Christianity is very long term and global in world view. The men who started the construction of the cathedrals of Europe knew before the fist stone was cut that they could not possibly live to see them completed.

I also understand from one who was there yesterday, that the crowd also filled the treeline to the left (South) of the reflecting pool. One can’t see them, but they were there...

The fact of the matter is that capitalism and free enterprise floats a lot more voats than socialism does.

Socialism has always meant a large poverty stricken underclass that provides for the few elite leaders at the very top.

European countries are starting to realize that and that is one reason why you are seeing many revolts in Europe right now and the reason why many European countries are beginning to turn away from socialism and socialistic policies. They are starting to realize the basic fallacy that is at the heart of socialism. Furthermore, socialism is but a brief step before all out communism.

” ... when we try to figure out why there’s such a huge number of people coming to these rallies ... “

Christiane, I have a suggestion for you to help you figure this out.

1. Get a million monkeys.

2. Get a million typewriters.

3. Put the monkeys to typing on the typewriters.

4. Wait until they come up with the answer.

Because clearly, if you and your brain trust have not figured this out yet, monkey methodology is the only shot you’re going to have at a solution.

Amanpour, age 52, the muslim-loving Desert Whore, was born to father, Mohammad, an Iranian airline exec, and mother, Patricia, a socialist Brit.

We know whose side she was on during Desert Storm. Hardly remembered is her ditto performance during the Kosovo war when she came under intense criticism for reportage which cast objectivity aside in blatant favor of the Bosnian muslims.

Interestingly enough, in light of the fact the muslims hate the Jews, she married one.....wealthy, long-time lefty DC insider, James Rubin, who today serves as "informal advisor" on foreign affairs to Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, and to the muslim-loving president Barack Hussein Obama.

Amanpour, embedded leftist TV news reporter married to leftist "analyst", James Rubin, who is working for the ambitious lefty, Hillary Clinton, and the islamo/fascist Barack Hussein Obama......the perfect example of muslim-loving, anti-American media/government incest at its finest.

All true. However, it is wasted on a complicit media and the rest of this melting-pot country that has become a third world Mecca for miscreants, illegals, sympathizers and outright terrorists. Add that to a willing and able press/media represented by the likes of AmanpourWarSlut and you have a genuine subversive element hell-bent on destroying the only country ever founded on God-given freedoms.

“I can’t stand to look at her. The gag response kicks in.”

Did she used to have an Adam’s apple?

“The republican party is the true big tent party and its conservative ideas, principles and values usually raise all boats especially in tough economic times.”

I don’t agree; the GOP is just as much about protecting vested economic interests as the DNC. One only has to look at the last half of bush’s time in office to see this.

What IS different is that the GOP is not overtly controlled by fascists.

Just wondering as an afterthought if Christiane is her real name. It seems more a made up mockery than anything else.
