Patriotism Outbreak

Post by Doka » 09-11-2013 04:06 PM

‘2 Million Bikers’ roar into D.C. to honor 9/11, protest Muslim rally :)

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/201 ... t-muslim-/


This is a Big Deal! I have had a really hard time just finding a story on it(could be me?) I couldn't even get my search engine to bring anything up?

I am proud that these people are doing "something"! Of course they where blocked from getting a permit.

PS Read some of the comments, I say some, caus'e there are over 3,000 of them.

Dig a little and see who got permits. Makes you wonder when patriots are not allowed to assemble.

While falling short of 2 million strong
So, it is the "less than 2 Million Biker Ride"?

Well, according to our government, if you're a "patriot", you are, by default, a persona non grata and a terrorist as well. So, it's no great surprise that the government wouldn't issue a permit......

Meanwhile, back in the Muslim countries where the "legal demonstrators" hail from, their fellow Muslims have been slaughtering their Christian neighbors. Has anyone heard our government issue any sort of protest, or file any sort of protest regarding these acts?

There is nothing like having something shoved down your throat and then be criticized for your "hostility". Keeps the pot stirred! I think the Muslims where even embarrassed. :(

From the blog:

"
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on Thursday said “anarchists” have taken over Congress.

Reid (D-Nev.) said Tea Party Republicans are preventing progress on an energy efficiency bill by offering amendments on ObamaCare and other unrelated issues.


“We’re diverted totally from what this bill is about. Why? Because the anarchists have taken over,” Reid said on the Senate floor. “They’ve taken over the House and now they’ve taken over the Senate.


“People who don’t believe in government — and that’s what the Tea Party is all about — are winning, and that’s a shame.”

On Wednesday, Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) said he would prevent votes on lawmakers' amendments to the energy bill until he's assured he'll get a vote on his amendment, which would require some congressional and executive branch staff to enroll in the ObamaCare health exchanges."

Really? This is what constitutes "anarchy" now? Asking that the government royalty live according to the same rules as the rest of us? The arrogance is astounding....... Is it any wonder why Pelosi didn't want the Obamacare bill read before passage...???

Riding motorcycles? Symbolism over substance. But if it makes them feel better...

It's been decades. And these twits are still making useless pilgrimages to DC like they have since they were teeny-boppers back in 1967. Meanwhile the war industrial machine rages on non-stop, mauling everything in it's path.

I will say this - their needlessly loud, overpriced motorcycles which make use of entrenched legacy technologies are a perfect symbol of the America they wish to 'preserve'.

They are not even close to willing to do what it actually takes to bring about change. It might mean they have to go without their insurance policies, 401k plans, dividends, and other 'benefits'. That potential is so utterly fear inducing to the million man biker gang that they would soil their assless leather chaps if they thought too hard on it. So they prefer to try and re-live their youths, the ones they spent in cubicles staring proudly at state issued diplomas - when they secretly looked up to "Easy Rider" and the Hell's Angels but were too timid to be anything but compliant social climbers.

This is all well known to the criminals in charge, and the corporate anarchists who pull the strings. They've placed huge investments based on it - and they are winning.

Game over.
