		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;OK, since were talking astroturf…now it is called “field turf” the rubber bone breaker of sports. and I suppose it would work well in this reference due to the protesters ‘playing the field’ as any protest will do. now lgm, get back in you’re tree.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Leave it to ajmontana to try and silence your freedom of speech....he/she feels threatened by alternative points of view.

And how&#039;s that MSNBC working out for you? Still on the air?</description>

		<description>Assimilated into the US culture?  Hardly.  I&#039;ve seen stuff like this break out in the streets of Nairobi Kenya over very minor things and people get beat to death.  The Sharpton&#039;s, Jacksons &amp; the Great Society people have a lot of blood on their hands.</description>

		<description>Michelle and others;

     I wish I knew what to say.  I really do.  I look at this, I follow the links, I see the overpacked room.  There wasn&#039;t any more room in there.  

     I saw the African-American woman say three times &quot;Shut up, white boy.&quot;  &quot;Shut up, white boy.&quot;  &quot;Shut up, white boy.&quot;  And I thought something to myself that was wrong.

     Somewhere in this once-great country, we went wrong.  We&#039;ve lost our way.  Too many entitlements, too many free lunches.  I&#039;m not a Democrat, and I no longer consider myself a Republican.  I&#039;m all politician&#039;s worst nightmare ... I&#039;m an informed voter.

     Although I&#039;m not liberal, I do remember his words &quot;Ask not what your country can do for you ... ask what you can do for your country.&quot;

     What can YOU do for your country?  Think for yourself.  READ and LEARN about what&#039;s really going on.  Michelle&#039;s site (thank you, Michelle) really helps, but it alone won&#039;t solve the problem.

     The other part of the problem is where I&#039;m going to get flamed.  I know it.  But it needs said, so here goes:

     We, the American People must get involved.  Too many politicians, on both sides of the aisle, have forgotten about us.  They&#039;re too interested in their poll numbers and in making their opponents look &#039;bad.&#039;  Sorry, they can all do that on their own.

     This requires that we get involved, because as sure as I&#039;m writing this, the politicians won&#039;t.  They&#039;re too busy with &quot;Congressional earmarks&quot; (aka - Pork-barrell spending.)

     We must get off our butts, put down the TV remote and get involved.  Too many apathetic voters who never got to the polls and who didn&#039;t vote have helped to create the mess we&#039;re now in.

     It&#039;s time for us to get up, STAND up, and take back this Country.

     I&#039;m sorry, Michelle.  I am.</description>

		<description>Astroturf? Watch it, grrl. The course &#039;nap&#039; of that material may get you cyber lynched.

This is but a small taste of the disturbed entitlement mob&#039;s violence &amp; aggression against the responsible adult bulwarks of society should another over-whelming calamity, like gynormous terrorist attack that disrupts energy or food, should happen.

Is your 2nd amendment at the ready?</description>

		<description>All this is, rent-a-protestor issue aside, is an excellent example of the systemic failure of the &quot;welfare&quot; system. It is also an example of what happens when a people with a laissez-faire attitude I am not using laissez-faire in the traditional definition but rather literally as translated: &quot;let do&quot;.

New Orleans isn&#039;t called The Big Easy for nothing. 

Generations-generations of these people have been handed everything, food stamps, shelter, money and the government-the banana republic government encourages this generational welfare state because it guarantees votes at the ballot boxes.</description>

		<description>What&#039;s the bet none of these protesters would ever consider living in those dilapidated buildings when it was an active crime-ridden area, or since. 

They want that kind of attention? Send them to fight in Iraq or Afghanistan.</description>

		<description>I lived in a &#039;mixed income&#039; community. Although this community was not designed to be a mixed income neighborhood, it became one by default when there were stately homes with 6 and 7 figure renovations alongside the non-redeveloped [is that even a word?] rental properties. I assisted my landlord in helping a new neighbor moved from a housing project to my apartment building and was shocked to learn of the living environment this single mother raised her daughter in the first eight years of her daughters life. Why anyone would prefer to live in such a state-sanctioned slum is beyond me.</description>

		<description>Another part of the problem is that when HUD rebuilds housing, there are new rules that forbid huge percentages of unemployed, no income tenants in the new developments. There are percentage requirements for different income levels. What that means is that not all the former tenants will be able to qualify to move back in, even if they showed up. We went through this here in San Francisco with several HOPE VI rebuilds. Also, former problem tenants are not allowed to return. 

The problem, of course, is the entitlement mentality of the black underclass. We, the taxpayers, &quot;owe&quot; them housing, food, medical care, etc. I work for a county welfare department and I see it every day. 

Finally, this &quot;right of return&quot; crap is just another example of the &quot;Palestinianization&quot; of everything.</description>
