Free Republic

Anyone up for an Occupy OccupyWallStreet "flash" protest? I'm thinking we get at least 15 to 20 rational-thinking people to show up with pro-American, pro-free market, anti-socialist banners, stick around long enough to rile up the protest-monkeys occupying the park and to get on the cameras, and then announce politely that we've made our point and now we're leaving because it wouldn't be fair to everyone else if we monopolized the park to the exclusion of everyone else?

A little tourists' cornucopia from the big, bad OccupyWallStreet thingey. I took the images below on my way to work this morning - discarded most of 'em cause they were just too pathetic - and thought I'd share them.

The Price of Freedom is Eternal Vigilance Let us not get too blase about our victory with Senator Scott Brown - Obama and the leftists are playing it coy right now because, quite frankly, they were too arrogant to be able to comprehend the possibility that they might not own Massachussets lock, stock, and barrel - however, they have absolutely no intention of simply giving up on their cherished, decades-long dreams of imposing socialist/communist-style medicine on Americans. No, what they will do now is try the soft-sell - they tried the hard-sell and got it thrown back in their arrogant,...
