We ended up staying in Chicago today yo go to the rally downtown. There was people in front of the Thompson Center as far as you could see supporting the unions. And yes. I did meet and talk to this wonderfully talented person with my wife. We were so excited. Lots of great rally speeches. Lots of fun.

If your life is anything like your avatar picture, I can see why. We will try to make your state right again.

I heard the tea bunch never showed up..

The Tea crowd was nearly non existent in Chicago. Dunno if they were too busy drinking Kool aid or what.

I heard the tea bunch never showed up..
About 100 in Madison.

Did'nt hear the count yet, But the news here said the largest crowd so far was there today.

[KG4CGC]

About 120,000 according to reports from those in attendance. As evening approached and that group was dispersing, a wave of 10, 000 was showing up to pull the night shift.

The local news here tonight said "hundreds" showed up. They zoomed in on a few protesters is all they would do. This is the video I took before it was really getting started. There were a quite a few there in my estimation.

They showed very few people protesting and interviewed no protesters. They did interview one Teabagger who complained that people working for monetary compensation was really going to break this country.

So, we should switch to barter? More proof that these idiots think in eighth-century conditions and solutions. We should turn the entire nation into a vast system of monasteries.

I found the actual report. They reported on the combination of the Rainbow PUSH coalition AND the rally at the Thompson Center being in the hundreds. What a joke. The only person on the street they talked to was a Walker supporter. There were a lot of areas I could not get pictures of the people. The place was packed on that side of the building by the time of the second speaker.

It's that damned liberal lamestream media. Everyone knows there were only a couple dozen people there. They overestimate crowd sizes at these sorts of events just to "wee-wee off" the teapublican patriots.

Still not one arrest for bimbo to spin.

Unless Chicago has changed, I don't believe it would be hard to arrange an arrest or two.

I managed to stay out of the cooler. There were no arrests I could see taking place.

I was really expecting a rise out of someone since I met with Midge Hough.

Yeah, I heard someone saying something to that effect on the radio a few days ago.

Those people are arrogant bastards. They are a by product of our violent and hate filled society. They could care less about their fellow Americans and their suffering. As lkong as they got theirs everyone else can go drop dead. They are about as anti-American and un-patriotic as you can get.

Yea. Anyone going to a demonstartion in Chicago, expect to eventually get beaten up by the police with "the whole world watching."
