Signs of the day

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 16, 2009 09:59 PM

There were tons of terrific signs at the Seattle anti-porkulus rally today. (Even more pics now up at Flickr via Mylittlehadji.)

My favorites:

And the pulled pork I ordered from Longhorn BBQ for the event arrived on time! Here’s protest organizer Liberty Belle with the delivery:

Even the liberal media grudgingly agreed: “Republicans have good taste in grub.”

And a postscript: Liberty Belle donated the leftovers to a local homeless shelter.

    Good stuff Michelle!

    I watched FNC today but did not see any coverage of the protest. I’ll send an email to Special Report asking for some coverage of tomorrow’s Denver event. Good luck and don’t forget the video camera!

    One protest is a good start. I think we need the One Million Taxpayer Protest down Pennsylvania Ave.

    A little math – With the USA population of approx. 300,000,000 and each person contributing $1/day for 365 days/year it will take over 15 years to pay back both the Bush and Obama Crap Sandwiches.

    founding fathers,
    figure on 30 years since half the population pays nothing to the feds. In four years, it might be a much higher percentage.

    Conservative protesters are definately more classy than the moonbat version. We probably should take a lesson from those crazies and protest every day “The One” is in office but we are the ones with the jobs to pay the taxes that fuel the porkulus bill that Fran built. For now , that is.

    My favorite line about thievery comes from The Godfather (the book, it didn’t make the movie):

    One lawyer with a briefcase can steal more than a thousand men with guns.

    The only thing I’ll add to that is that Obummer is a lawyer…

    Martial Arts students learn to defend themselves (up to and including kill) with their bare hands. Can you imagine a Liberal learning to do that?????

    I can’t come up with a slogan for tomorrows Rally in Denver! I don’t have a jingoistic bumpersticker mentality!

    The best I can do is “Tyrant! Stay thy cursed hand and sign not this most foul pact with Satan lest thou damn thy progeny to debtors prison.” but that’s more for a Rennfaire, and I don’t think Nancy Pelosi would like being called Satan.

    Surely there’s someone here that knows someone with a room temperature IQ that can help us lower ourselves to Liberal levels… signage-wise I mean.

    I thought so. The Media have suddenly fallen in love with pork now that Democrats control Washington.

    The man who is preparing to sign the porkulus is also threatening those who DARE to question his Constitutional eligibility to hold the office of President…

    Obama Threatens Keyes and other Eligibility Plaintiffs

    If “Mr. Transparency” had nothing to hide, he would simply release the documents.

    Instead, he’s paying high-powered lawyers to bully those who seek the truth.

    It amazes me that that there are any conservatives who DON’T think this is a big deal.

    Why do you trust this man?!?!

    Practically everything he does is deceptive.

    Ya know, planned far enough in advance, like at least 90 days minimum, a D.C. march is not outside the realm of reality. Especially if on top of Porkulus spending the administration starts making serious moves toward the Fairness Doctrine.

    It’s usually a fact that libs are lawyers, and conservatives are businessmen. That’s why libs usually screw up the country when they try to run it.

    Instead of out doing real jobs, these people are on the street corner trying to get you to sign a petition to end some governmental policy that you’ve never heard of.

    Wow…so, when conservatives protest, we’re basically told to go back to work.

    But, when liberals protest, it’s a celebration of first amendment rights.

    I guess they need us to get back to work so that we can pay for all of this crap.
