Their goal is to reclaim the excitement that surged among left-leaning groups after the 2008 presidential race but that more recently has belonged to tea party groups and other conservative activists. Last month, for instance, conservative commentator Glenn Beck partly filled the Mall with tens of thousands of his supporters.
The organizers of this weekend's rally, dubbed One Nation Working Together, are calling it the 'most diverse march in history.' The amalgam of 400 progressive groups - including environmentalists, antiwar activists, church and civil rights groups, union organizers and gay rights coalitions - is planning four hours of speeches, songs and poetry."
All these groups who have members being forced to attend .. (see my next post) I wonder how many people will attend. How many will MSNBC and the like say attended and how it compares to the hundreds of thousands who showed up just to see Glenn Beck himself.
Will Pelosi demand an inquiry as to who is actually promoting this and where the money is coming from? Will she call it "Astroturf"?
