   Hope those folks are being paid for their time and effort in being bussed almost 200 miles. If so, then the administration could claim it actually is stimulating the economy.

   I saw something very striking this morning. Over at the daily kook there is a posting of the pics from their meeting in Pittsburgh.

   I looked through the pics and they were the usual preppy with computers pics. Nothing real odd, some funny looking folks having fun, some serious looking folks not having as much fun. Just pics from a convention

   Then it hit me, the only black folks in these pics were either alone or seemingly grabbed by some lone liberal to show their face with a black person. It also struck me how few black folks were in that series of over 200 pics. And when I looked closer it seemed a few of the pics were of the same black people. They were just pimped to make it look like there was some even minor contingent of african americans.

   So for all there talk of diversity it seems the liberal kooks like their conventions just like their klan rallys.

   White very white.

   That would be double dipping since most of these folks get a gov’ment check anyhow…not that double dipping is anything a demoncrap supporter wouldn’t do anyway.

    No doubt! But the sad fact is, no one in the media but FNC will notice it. To the MSM, this is just an above-board example of average, everyday Americans exercising their right to “free” speech!

    Most of the recruits that the union gets to walk picket lines or protest come from the unemployed on the union books. These are usually the whiners and complainers who can’t keep a job and the non-productive who are the first to be laid off when a job finishes. When I was a union carpenter foreman many years ago, we referred to them as “warm bodies”.

    They do whatever the union tells them so they can work just enough to qualify the rest of the year for unemployment and keep their healthcare benefits.

    Wow, I was just going to send this as a tip, it’s my home town and Mark Schauer is my congress critter (ugh) Schauer was just at my old employer the other day to talk health care. It is a union shop full of people who already have health care.

    link here

    As a correection, Schauer was not holding a town hall meeting, it was a planned protest. He only held a “telephone townhall”. He said that he won’t hold any townhalls because no one was coming. Of course he had his last one BEFORE this bill was made public…..bet people would show up now.

    BTW, Jackson MI. is the birthplace of the Republican party….

    You’re reading this story today because Tuesday I was able to confirm with the Service Employees International Union that it rented vans and encouraged people to carpool to the event.

    The one’s I saw on TV were getting off school buses. Now maybe those who got off the bus were attending summer school because they weren’t the sharpest pencils in the box, but they sure looked too old to be riding a school bus to the event.

    I was in Phoenix on Monday when Obama spoke to the VFW convention. “They” busssed in people from Los Angeles with the likely hood of meeting “the One” as VIP’s and were PAID TO BE THERE. Probably 3/4 of the ones shown in all the pictures are NOT from AZ. What’s more. all the pictures showing the “guns” were taken on the Obama side of the street—total SET UP!!!!

    The “Astro-turfers” really had a great time.

    It bears mentioning that Schauer’s district (MI7) isn’t one of those bizarrely gerrymandered creatures they have in Pennsylvania. Muskegon and Detroit are far outside of this district, and people not represented by Rep Schauer have no business displacing his actual constituents at a town hall.
