Jon Voight speaking at the rally with members of Congress: “”His only success in his one-year term as president is taking America apart, piece by piece. Could it be he has had 20 years of subconscious programming by Rev. Wright to damn America?”
This is event is so momentous, Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) has apparently decided to deepen his voice specially for the event.
It’s interesting to note that they’ve got a decent turnout of members of Congress up on the stage in this event this morning. Not just Michele Bachmann. This sort of dovetails with what we mentioned earlier, which was members of the Republican Study Committee in the House trying to rebrand the event not as a “protest” or a “rally” but rather a “press event” or “press conference.”
Bachmann is operating as the MC, introducing the speakers. Boehner is speaking now. I’m very curious and very dubious whether the GOP leaders are going to allow crowds from a rally they’re speaking at fan out and try to occupy the Speaker’s office.
On the other hand, in the crowd Boehner is speaking to, there’s a rally poster with images of corpses from Dachau denouncing “National Socialist Health Care.”
